CHECK LOOSE MORALS
Bedford Superintendent Says Men
Should Be Treated Like Women.

New York, April 26.-'I believe that
vicious men should be sent to a place
similar to Bedford and treated just as We
treat women whose moral senses are
deadened. Their association with these
women shows that they are equally in
need of moral awakening, even If it takes
three years of education to bring desired
results
In these words Miss Katherine Bement
Davis superintendent of the Bedford re-
formatory, declared her belief in the
equality of treatment for men and women
who have violated the laws of morality
Miss Davis, when interviewed, had Just
returned from conferences at Albany and
New York that she hoped will aid in the
enlargement of Bedford and the extension
of the work of reformation that is the
idea of that institution.
There is general awakening of So
ciety,'' said Miss Davis. Ito the need of
doing something to check the loose moral
ity that is evident on every hand and L
think the correction work done at Bedford
is doing much to bring conditions to nor
NAL again.
Il realize, however. the utter impossi-
bility of committing men who are moral
delinquents to a reformatory. 1 am heart
and soul against segregation and against
the police idea of shooting away the men
caught in raids in disorderly places. But
do believe that the laws should oe
changed so that commercialized vice can
be driven out of existence

SLAP AT COLLEGE
Harvard Graduate Says Edu-
cation Is of Little Value.
Must Give Man a Grasp of Life
to Be of Use.

Boston, Mass, April 26.-College
circles were stirred by the charges of
the Rev. DR.. John Haynes Holmes, a
Harvard graduate, now pastor of the
Church of the Messiah in New York,
that his Harvard education has been
worthless to him in the struggle for
life. He uses the term &c special privi-
lege" in reference to the entire school
system of Massachusetts.
The clergyman's attack on Harvard
is in line with the statements made by
Roosevelt in a recent magazine article
Both declared that their Harvard
training was of very little value to
them. The Rev. DR.. Holmes had this
to say:
81 had the best education money
could buy in the United States. Yet
all things that are worth while in ma
terial existence 1 taught myself after
I left college. The things 1 labored
over in those years at preparatory
school and college 1 never turn to
now, except for my amusement"
DR.. Holmes spoke with humorous
scorn of his one year of French, his
one year of physics, which gave him
only a beggar1y smattering of those
studies, and says that failure to teach
Of the worlds richest philosophical lit
erature. He learned very little of
English and American history, moth
ing of chemistry, astronomy.
I'VE still have in education" he
added, "the bugaboo that nothing is
worth while unless it bears the label
classical. All knowledge is nothing
unless it is made a tool to be used in
the struggle of life

His excellency, the secretary of
state stopped at the soda fountain in
the station and had a grape Juice
sundae. Then he went directly to the
University club and had a grape Juice
frappe. 1t was while slipping grape
juice punch that Secretary Bryan was
approached by reporters and asked
about his mission to California where
he goes to carry President Wilson's
protest against the passage of the pro-
posed anti-alien laws. He smiled over
the grape and shook his head.
Mr. Bryan was mum and extra dry.

CARAVEL IN PANAMA.
Harvard University Students After
Ship Designs.

Madrid, April 26.-Cayo Puga, de-
signer of reproduction of the three
vessels in which Columbus crossed the
Atlantic, which were exhibited at the
Columbian exposition at Chicago in
1898. has received a request from Har-
vary university students for the de-
signs. 1t is understood a plan is afoot
at Harvard to construct a similar
caravel to send through the Panama
canal when it is opened. 1t is pro-
posed that the ships shall go to San
Francisco afterward. Senior Puga has
decided to send these designs to
America at his own expense.

riers OF passengers as necessarily incident
TO the conduct OF the business, and mutually
convenient and advantageous to both carrier
and passenger; and IL injured By reason Of
the negligent failure OF the defendant 70
maintain its wharf In reasonably safe con-
dition. while she herself was in the exercise
OF ordinary care, she is entitled TO recover Of
the defendant appropriate damages for such
injury.
The defendant further contends that
neither the defendants negligence nor the
plaintiffs care is satisfactorily established
by the evidence.
But there was sufficient evidence TO support
the conclusion of the jury thstthe defendants
wharf Was not reasonably safe at the point
where the accident happened, and that the
defendants manager either knew of the ex-
issenee Of the hole through the plankipg. or
by the exerise OF reasonable care and diligence
might have known it, sufficient length Of
time before the accident TO have made the
necessary repairs.
The plaintiffs testimony respecting the
manner In which the secfsient happened, con-
sidered In connection with ali the attending
circumstances. was sufficient affirmative evil
dence TO authorize the Jury to draw the infer-
enee that she conducted herself as ordinarily
careful aud prudent persons usually do in
like situations, and that shr was not guilty OF
"thoughtless inattention'.
The damages do not appear to be excessive.

The Herald Aud Maine.

The Portland Argus remarks, In the
course OF a kindly comment ON a recent
Herald editorial, that "The Herald is
taking great interest in Maine affairs
now a-days." The Argus is right. The
Herald certainly does take great interest
in Maine affairs, and with good reason.
II Is not sisnply that the Herald has long
had many readers in .8aine, loyal con-
stituency that has been increasing
rapidly of late. There are broader
grounds for the HerdId,s interest in Maine
in the recognition OF the strong ties OF
history, business and sentiment that bind
Massachusetts and Maine together, and in
the community of interest such as exists
between no other states in the Union.
In Massachusetts there are to-day
almost 100000 natives OF Maine, many
thousands more people than any other
state has contributed to the population of
our commonwealth. 1t is almost as many
as New Hampshire and Vermont COM
bined have sent to this state. The ma
Jority of them are here in Greater Boston.
There are more Maine people here than in
Portland itself, or in Augusta, RockIand,
Lewiston and Bangor combined. They
are leaders in public affairs - as they
were when the great John A. Andrew
came from Maine and in every pro-
fession and line Of business. They and
their children never lose their loyalty to
the home state and its institutions. The
800 Bowdoin men here, for example, have
one OF the best organized college alumni
associations in the city.
Nor has tide of migration been wholly
from Maine to Massachusetts,. OF course,
in the earlier days, especially in the
generation following the Revolution, a
host of Massachusetts, people went to the
Maine coast and up the river valleys, and
the movement has never ceased altogether.
In Maine there are now about 10000
nafiVA4 nf 10 ff.r ~
the 1910 census, far more people than
Massachusetts has contributed to the
population OF any other state, and more
than all the other New England states
combined have contributed to Maine.
Moreover, there are the unnumbered
thousands of Massachusetts, people who
are summer residents OF Names summer
paradise.
Maine and Massachusetts have had a
peculiar community OF interests since the
first explorers skirted the coast four GEN.
turies ago. 1t was Maine Indian, Samo-
set who, having been on trip to Europe
with traders to the Maine coast, came up
here through the wilderness and well
coined the Pilgrims at Plymouth with
words OF broken English that stupified
the Pilgrims with amazement. Later,
only the corn from Pemaquid and the rich
fur trade OF the Kennebec saved the Ply
mouth colony from extinction.
Then, in the course of years, n trick of
history made Maine a part OF Massachu-
sets, and because it was ssthe District of
Maine" for generations 1t is now COM
monty spoken of as .'the State OF Maine"-
a dignified prefix to the name OF the State
that ~ not used with any other. 1t is
now close to century since the separa-
tion took place, but in many things there
has never been, and will never be, any
separation Boston Herald.

When we tell you that Vinol is the
best remedy in our whole stock for
making weak, puny, ailing children
strong, robust and rosy, we are only
telling you what has been proved by
hundreds of mothers.
Mrs. W. o. Strother, Raleigh, N. c.,
says: "My little girl, Hazel, has been
taking Vinol to build her up after a
severe spell of sickness. 1t has done
so much good by restoring her appe-
tite and building up her strength that
| think Vinol is the finest tonic ever
prepared, and l am telling everyone
about it"
What vinol did for this little
6irl it will do for very weak and
ailing child, because sickly children
need the strengthening cod liver
elements and the tonic iron that
Vinol contains-that is why Vinol
builds them up quickly and gives
them a fine, healthy color. 1t is
pleasant to take, and we guar
antee that the results will satisfy
you money back If they do not.
