Pretty eastern girls are reported to be
signing for sturdy western young men
for husbands. And if the hearts of
some of the pretty western girls could
be searched, a few signs would proba-

extraction for husbands. Close and con-
tinued contact between humans of Ill
ages is a great destroyer of ideals and
romance.

Little wit, much telling of funny stories,

Chance leads to the treasure; hard dig

It is interesting to note that the bat
tie against race suicide has assumed a
new and finer aspect, as shown by the
reports of scientists attending the In
ternational Congress of Hygiene. For
merly the idea of the proper way to
combat race suicide was to preach big
families-the more babies born the
better. Today science shows that a
wiser way to combat the evil is to save
the lives of the babies that are born.
In this way, though the family be
smaller in numbers than formerly, its
members will have longer life, and in
stead of families losing two to four
babies out of every five or six, the big
battle Will be waged to keep the
smaller family of three or four chill
dren in perfect health. Science is al
ready working out it's race suicide
problem in splendid form. Reports
show that the largest percentage OF
deaths of babies under one year is in
families of the negro and of the un-
educated foreigner. The smallest per-
centage is in native white families.
Thus, while it is true rnat the native
whites are reducing the number of
children born to the family of the
children so born more are brought to
maturity. This is material gain
from any point of view that one NAV
take of the question. And it also shows
that those who are preaching the Cos
pei of Large families should likewise
join in the fight to save the infants
from early death.-New York Ameri-
can.
AND DOESN'T IT SOUND STRANGE
What relief from the venom and
scurrllity of the speech of johnson

vocate of President Taft, to read OF

and Governor Wilson, his chief rival.
