1918 to OCT, the United Mine Workers
of America adopted an amendment to
their constitution, providing that men,

LONE MAN ROBS RESTAURANT
Bandit Holds Up Cashier and Assist
ant Headwaiter With Two Revolv-
ers and Secures S3,3e4.

Chicago, Ill.-Rectors restaurant,
located in the very heart of the
downtown business district of Chi
cago, was robbed in true wild west
fashion. A lone bandit, unmasked,
walked calmly into the restaurant,
held murderous looking revolvers to
the heads-of the cashier and assistant
headwaiter, pushed the latter up
against wall and compelled the cash
ier to hand over the contents of the
cash drawer and safe. The bandit
then, as calmly and as quietly as he
had entered, left the place with 1884
in his overcoat pockets.
The bandit and his confederates,
for it is believed he had three con-
federates, is still at large. Owing to
the early hour, 9:20 a. m, no custom
ers were in the restaurant at the time.
The only witness to the hold-up was a
scrub woman.

RAPS BOOK OF FLEV|HCUS
DOCTOR ELIOT SAYS SCRIPTURE
TEACHES WRONG IDEA.
Declares Old Assertion That Children
Were Born in Sin Maligns
Motherhood.

Boston, Mass.-Charles w. Eliot,
president emeritus of Harvard, in his
crusade for the teaching of sex hy-
giene in schools, came out strongly
here against the Book of Leviticus in
the Bible. Doctor Eliot declared that
the book of Leviticus maligned
motherhood in it's assertion that chill
dren were born in sin. He declared
for early marriage on the ground
that it would lessen the social evil and
make for morality.
I'VE must get rid of these mon
strous things brought down to us
from the Bible in Leviticus," said Doc
tor Eliot. 1--WE must get rid of this
idea taught us for thousands of years
that man is altogether born in sin.
We shall never get on right footing
in the matter OF the social evil nor
find any means of curing it until we
get rid of this idea. The transmits
sion of life is the sacredest and holi-
new kind of teaching, and that
means a new kind that teaches chill
dren the sacred subject of the trans
mission of life by means of botany
and zoology. Relief from present con-
ditions can only be brought about
through public discussion. We must
teach everyone that immortality is the
| destruction of character as we'll as the
various sources of life from genera
ton to generation" Doctor Eliot's
remarks were made before the Twen-
tieth Century club.

HAVE FAITH IN UNCLE SAM
Public Rushes to Postal Banks and
Hitchcock is Delighted With
the Scheme.

Washington, D. C.-"If the neces-
sary appropriations were available l
would establish postal savings banks
tomorrow in 500 additional cities and
towns in the United States" This
statement was made by Postmaster
General Hitchcock in view of reports
thus far received concerning the first
months operation of the postal saw
ings system. The reports are most
gratifying to Mr.. Hitchcock and to
the other officers of the postal savings
service. They are regarded as dem
onstrating that the new system al
ready has passed the experimental
stage. The total deposits in the 4S
existing postal banks for the month
of January will amount to approxima-
tely 100000. This is an average of
about $1,000. Assuming that this aver
age will be maintained throughout
the year, the aggregate of annual de-
posts will be close to S750,000.
