FIRST HAREM SKIRT IN JACKSON
VILE

The first harem skirt has appeared
on the streets of Jacksonville, and
was worn by the bright and attractive
little secretary of the Duval theater,
Miss Adelaide Dodge. The skirt was
of light gray wool material, with very
manly pockets upon the hips, and was
really not at all bizarre in appearance,
and is not like the boomers which
made the sensation in their day.
Miss Dodge wore the new skirt so
gracefully that anything outre about
it was obliterated, and one was only
conscious of the very trim and chic
effect. A panel front and back hides
the skirt being divided, and only the
increased power of locomotion was no.
ticeable. Judging from this speci-
men, the much talked of haren skirt
is practically the divided riding skirt,
only in the harem this division is con-
cealed under a panel. which gives a
very fetching touch to the costume
Metropolis.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR INDUSTRY
IN FLORIDA

In that excellent paper, the Miami
Herald, is an article headed, Say
Pleasant Things" The thought con-
veyed is that it is far better to notice
good things in our neigbbors than the
flaws. The source of most unkind
criticism is self-conceit. When We re-
alize our own failings and how nu-
merous they are we will have patience
with those seen in our neighbors.
A kindly letter comes from Mrs. A.
T. La Penotiere, the hostess of many
Endeavorers in conventions in Tam
pa Though not as strong physically
as in former days, the love for our or
ganization and its present leaders
has not diminished with this honorary
member.
Interstate Field Secretary Karl
Lehman was the honored guest at
the county convention held in Passa-
dena, California, a month ago. In an
address. in which was an appeal to
more consecrated effort on the part of
young Christians, Mr.. Lehman uses
as an example a Florida worker.
Since then nearly one hundred of
those hearing this address have sent
post card messages to Interlachen.
The following quotation from a card
sent by young man Endeavorer,
Merle NJ. Prevett, of the Y. NJ. G.. A.,
at Long Beach, shows the inspiration
that Mr.. Lehman was able to leave
with the nearly one thousand dele
gates at this county meeting: THE
message told by Mr.. Lehman last
night in c. E. convention in this
beautiful church helped me. l feel
handicapped by the loss of one arm,
but mean to take fresh courage and
trust in God for Strength gigts

TEMPERANCE
CONGRESSMAN RICHARD p. HOB
CON ON LIQUOR QUESTION
DEPARTNlENT

There are phenomena which sci
ence has shown are just the opposite
of their appearances. For many CEN
turtles the test of daily experience led
mankind to believe that the earth was
fiat, but science proved in time that
it was really round. Common expe-
rience has for centuries led to the
belief that alcohol is stimulating, but
science has proved that it is in reality
Oppressive and must be classed with
narcotics. For centuries everyday
experience led to the conclusion that
a moderate amount of alcohol was
strengthening, but science has now
established that alcohol is the toxin
or liquor excretion of the yeast or
ferment germ, and is poison to all
living organism. Ordinary observa-
ton would lead to the conclusion that
alcoholic poisoning only kills those
few who died in delirium tremens, or
from alcoholism" but scientific rec
lions of drunkards the life of the av-
erage confirmed drunkard is but three
years and while there are other con
tributory causes, the. 100000 confirm
ed drunkards who die in America ev-
cry year, without being classed as
dying from alcoholism, should be re-
garded as killed by alcoholic poison
ing.

of forty-four years-that is. he will

a young man at the age of 20 who is

mains a temperate regular drinker,
has a prospect of life of thirty-one
years. and will live to the average age
of fifty-one; a young man at the age

prospect of life of fifteen years, and
will die at the average age of thirty

FoRTlFYING THE CANAL

AS circumstances are, we unfortu-
nately need to fortify, and fortify eff
fectively, the Philippines and Hawaii.
We need to fortify our two ocean
coasts. 1t is a sad commentary on
modern civilization that this should
have to be admitted, and it is to be
devoutly hoped that the time may
come when such expenditures as these
will be regarded as much a relic of
barbarism as a mans kidnapping his
wife. But the canal is something
very different. 1t is not part of our
coast. 1t can as well be neutralized
as the Suez canal, the straits of Ma
gellan, the Danube river, the Black
sea, several of the smaller countries
of Europe, and, to all intents and pur-
poses, the Great Lakes of America.
To doubt the good faith involved in
such neutralizing, and to fortify the
canal is to insult the nations of the
world. 1t is to tell them that we do
not think their word is worth the tax
ing; that we do not believe in their
honor and that we distrust their
friendship.
The Suez canal is a thousand times
more essential to the political unity
of the British empire than the Pana-
ma canal can ever be to the United
States, but the traveller that sails
through between it's sand banks never
sees a fort or a cannon. Are the ma
lions of the world as worthy of being
trusted by he United States as by
Great Britain? In the long run, it
would be better for the United States
to show it's supreme confidence in 9TH
CT nations honor and neutralize the
canal, than to publish its disbelief in
International honor fortify the canal
and then save it. That puts the issue
frankly The World Today. aTg. saF

stomach, of the liver, of the heart and

binary observation would scarcely

presence of alcohol in the system,

country with climatic conditions the

ton in different occupations and walks
of life, are directly proportional to
the average amount of alcohol con-
sumed
Deaths in Infancy
Ordinary observation would never
attribute death in infancy to alcoholic
poisoning, but scientific records have
shown that deaths in infancy among
children of temperate regular drink
ers are almost double the deaths in
infancy among children of total abb
stainers; for total abstaining parents,
Is per cent. of the children die in in
fancy, for temperate regular drink
ers, % per cent, and for heavy drink
ers, 80 per cent.
More Destructive Than War
Calculations based on the compar-
alive lists of killed and wounded make
out alcoholic poisoning in it's grip on
the nations of the white race today as
about 10000 times more destructive
than all war combined.
These figures are simply staggering,
but they are scientifically correct and
cannot be successfully disputed.
Degeneracy of City Life
Ordinary observation would not see
in the widespread use of alcoholic
beverage in large cities the main
cause of degeneracy of city life, and
of the final downfall of the nations
and civilizations of history, nor would
it see in the increasing consumption
of such beverage in proportion to the
growth of city life in America, the
greatest menace to our institutions
and to the very life of the nation
