Navy Ready for War.

Battle practice has brought the existing
feet to q state OF complete readiness for
instant service. says Secretary Meyer. Re
serve as we'll as active vessels are kept
in condition for any contingency. and the
navy's gunners have during the year
made records that more than sustain the
high standards of the service.
Aeroplane equipment Is entirely made
quate at the present time. according to
Secretary Meyer. He points out that
while the United States spent only $4,000
for this purpose last year. Japan spent
500 900, and fve European nations spent
individual sums ranging from 5000 900 to
8, 0oO, 900. the latter being the expenditure
of France. Secretary Meyer says there
should be no limitation upon the progress
sive development Of naval aviation.
He recommends the creation of q naval
reserve of about fifty thousand men,
twenty-five thousand TO be secured from
the honorabIy discharged men of the
navy. the naval militia and various me-
chanical trades of civil life; the other
twenty-five thousand from among sailors
of the merchant marine.
The application OF the eIght-hour law to
all shipyards, says Secretary Meyer, will
probably cause an increase In the appro-
priation necessary to build ships Of q
given type.

Man Is Inferior
To Woman.

1t has long been said that women
are the more like children. but Mr.
Havelock Ellis says that men are the
more like apes.
DIR. Ellis leaves little for the vanity
Of the male to feed upon. The fondly-
supposed superiority of man over
woman IS, according to this news state
ment OF facts. myth.
The sexes are so widely different
that comparisons. though odious. are
irresistible. There is hardly a measur-
able quality Of any sort which is not
unlike in the two sexes. Women even
button their garments on the other
side from that adopted by naen and
choose Sunday instead of Monday as
their favorite day for making way
with themselves.
Men, Of course. may, IL they choose,
look upon this only as an illustration
of woman's contrariness, but men
should remember that even they were
first put into clothes by women, and
any departure from childhood customs
of dress indicate mems own perverse-
ness.
So far as laboratory tests go, DIR.
Ellis says that women are unquestion-
ably superior in general tactile sensi-
bility and probably superior in the dis
elimination of tastes. with no advan-
tage either way in the case Of the other
senses.
Women have better memories, read
more rapidly. bear pain better, re
cover better from wounds and serious
illness, are less changed by old age and
live longer.
Furthermore, according to the same
authority. women have relatively larger
brains-especiallys in the frontal region.
The only thing left in which man is
superior Is muscular strength. And, of
course. as long as he has that he win
maintain his supremacy and remain
complacent in his vanity. Where is
the need of argument 50 long as might
is all on one side?
Women, in short. are more civilized
than men. and civilization itself is but
the process OF making the world lady
like. The effeminancy so much sneered
at is In the van OF culture.

Among the prominent citizens Of San

What Do You Think
Of Won1an.s Attire?

Does the apparel of the modern wom-
an meet your approval? Do you like
II better than any styles in recent
years?
Mobile women are divided on the
subject as is indicated by interviews
with prominent women OF that city
published in the Item several days ago.
Many like the present-day fashions.
others object to the style. but say
their objections have to be overruled
for they cannot bear to be behind the
times.
To the average person who thinks of
the present attire of women the con
clusion is that the fashion is sensible,
healthfuI and quite as modest as in
the days when yards and yards of ma
tsrials were worn by the fair creatures
We venture the assertion that the
narrow skirts. and few of them, will
continue to be worn. 1t Is the really
sensible thing to do.

They play a mighty peculiar game
In politics.
They're not particular where they aim
In politics.
They fool their neighbors and slam
their friends,
They think it needless to make amends,
They stop at nothing to gain their ends

They yank the Doodle and stow the

In politics.
And every one Is out for himself
In politics.
They wade and wallow and splash in
the mire;
They claim all virtues and play with

OF gamblers chances they never tire,

They make us believe that black is

They even convince US that wrong is

With this slogan a large number Of
San Diego citizens have formed a vigil

is to drive from the city the members
known as the Independent Workers Of

This new organization is the same

Gan Diego; they came in defiance Of
the advice Of the police that their visit
would arouse the people.
They were greeted at the depot by
mob OF more than 1000 excited,
angry men and women, who followed
and hooted the couple on the way TO
their hotel. The Goldman woman con-
tinued in her determination to speak
here that night until conditions grew
so alarming that she knew trouble
would result. Then she promised not
to speak and TO leave the city.
While a conference was being held
by her with the police, four men. none

Help In the
War on the Fly.

City Physician Mobiles Is earnestly
working to rid Pensacola OF dies and
mosquitoes. Everyone knows how well
ne has succeeded in driving the mos
qultoes away, or rather, preventing
breeding places for them.
The war against the fly is one which
cannot be carried on by the officials
Of the city without the cooperation Of
the residents. The city is too large
for the health officials to make a per
sonaI supervision Of all the residents
in the city with the limited funds at
their command now. consequently the
residents in every neighborhood ought
to co-operate in every way possible
with the city officials.
Files breed in filth.
Destroy the filthy places and the
flies will disappear.
Rid the city OF flies and mosquitoes
and there viii be no fevers this sum
