ticket" method OF deanng with va
grancy Is accomplishing revolution
The latest reports ON the working OF
the system indicate that within very
few years the ranks Of the ragged
rieudicants on the highways OF the
United Kingdom viii be reduced al
most to vanishing point.
The object OF the way ticket" is
to give a better chance to the un-
employed who really want work, and
to make the way of the professional
tramp as hard as possible. The man
who wants to work but Is compelled
to take TO the road is taken into the
poorhouse at night and released next
morning instead OF suffering the
usual period OF detention. When
leaving he is given a ticket which
entities him to certain allowance of
bread and cheese along the road he
intends to take. He is also put in
touch with the local labor exchanges
and everything possible is done for
him II he shows a genuine desire to
obtain work.
On the other hand, the habiual
tramp obtains short shift. After
spending the night at the poorhouse
he suffers the usual period of deten-
ton and gets the allotted task. FL
nally he is given the way ticket"
so that he has no excuse for begging.
Very SOON the poorhouse masters be-
gin to look askance at the man who
persistently presents the ticket, and
his journey from village to village
and from poorhouse to poorhouse in
the countries where the system pre-
walls is not made any too smooth,
The tramp finally seeks a country
where this method does not prevail,
SO these sanctuaries are beginning to
adopt the system as self defense.
The system only becomes success
full when the householders cooper
ate. circulars are issued instructing
them that since all Migrants have
access to the bread tickets. there is
no excuse for giving food to beggars,
and the tramps who neglect to pro-
vide themselves with the tickets are
beginning to learn that the circulars
have not fallen on barren soil.

ed countries in their efforts to compel

beside the troubles OF the local gov
ernor Of Inhambane, British East
Africa, who has almost caused war
by ordering the native ialdens to at
tire themselves in European garb.
The order particularly insisted that
the native women should not appear
in public without skirts under pain
OF some grave penalty not speeifed.
Never was an apparently innocent
sumptuary law received with such an
outburst of rebellion. The Commercial
council resigned in body and the
Indian stofekeepers who deal in the
articles of attire favored by the ma
tive ladies' threatened to shut up shop
in protest. The native bellies took even
more drastic action by refusing to
come near Inhambane at all. with the
result that the town was soon in
danger of a famine in vegetables.
eggs, poultry and other necessary
food supplies. The women who lived
n town prepared to leave.
The opposition became too hot for
the governor, who withdrew the OBJ
noxious decree, and the bellies OF In
hambane again go about in their
scant native costumes.
The craze lnsia6ndon for regulation
has reached The clocks. Hereafter,
acordlnES a uRase of the corpora
ton olske city, all public timepIeces
must be synchronised;
London's clocks generally have
never been noted for timeReeping and
the new regulation means that most
of them will have to turn over new
leaf IL they expect to synchronise with
Greenwich time. Only three of the
great clocks have proved themselves
models of accuracy-those of st.
Paul's cathedral, the Law Courts aud
Big Ben in Westminster palace.
A tour of the streets proves that It
is the simplest thing in the world to
lose or gain time. BY walking block
the pedestrian could gain anything
from thirty seconds to two hours or
he might lose as much. Four minutes
could be gained by crossing Fleet
street from one newspaper office to
another, while a sporting paper on
the same street had evidently started
its racing season by being five min
utes ahead OF Greenwich time.
St. Margarets, which from ito eccle-
siastical associations would be ex-
pected to be truthful. was three min
utes ahead of time, Notwithstanding
the reproachful looks of accurate Big
Ben across the way.
Indeed. there seemed to be a con-
spiracy of disagreement among Lon
don clocks and on no street could
more than two clocks be found to
coincide.
