ping Ralph Gullett by a whole point!
And perhaps some day Hazel might
need that money to go to college
THE poor committee felt like But
tercup in 'Pinafore,' who mixed the
babies up. Finally they decided to
leave the decision to the Companion.
On the desk of the Companions Ed
itor lay two letters. One was from
Mrs. Gullett, thanking the donors for
the gift that had started Ralph's edu-
cational nest-egg. The other was
from Mrs Cash, pleading the case of
her baby.
What would you have done?
Just what the Companion did. II
was decided to notify Mrs. Gullett that
Ralph should keep his prize money
and to tell Mrs. Cash that Hazel
should receive a consolation prize of
One Hundred Dollars and have her
rights duly recognized in the May is

HOW WOULD YOU HAVE SET.
TIED THIS DISPUTE?

The Woman's Home Companion
which is offering prizes and otherwise
promoting a campaign for Better
Babies" in the United States, publishes
in its May number report of Bet
ter Babies show just held in Denver,
az which children were judged not ac-
cording to their beauty but according
to their physical condition. The Com
panion offered a prie of $100 in gold
to the best rural baby and 500 in gold
tO the best city baby After the rural
baby prize had been awarded to Ralph
Gullett, it was discovered that Hael
Lucille Cash the little daughter of a
Colorado ranchman, had been incor-
rectly classified as a city baby, and
that If she had been correctly CLASH
fled she would have won the rural
baby prize. The report continues:
Here was a sad state of affairs!
The Cashes communicated with the
committee in Denver, and the commit
tee notified the Editor of the Com
panion. The situation was truly pa
thetic. In Doctor Ditson's office sat
the two small contestants, quite un-
conscious of the sensation they were
creating. and with them sat their re-
spective parents, to say nothing of
troubled physicians and scorers. Mr..
and Mrs. Gullett had already an
nounced to relatives, friends and
neighbors their good fortune, and had
deposited the hundred dollars in the
hank, pending the day it would be
needed to complete his education.
But the stern fact remained that
little Hazel Cash did belong in the
rural class, and there she held the

LITERARY EXPERTS.

A little party of Irishmen, repre-
senting different walks of life, were
discussing momentous questions when
the talk drifted to literature.
This reminds me of some of my
Irish friends of the 'Ould Sod,' with
whom I was talking some days ago"
said Frank Fogarty of New York to
the Rev. Father T. ]. Malone Of Den
yer.
"How's that?" asked Father Ma
lone.
"They also were discussing litera-
ture. O'Brien and Kerrigan were in
the party. Says O'Brien to Kerrigan:
How do you like Omar Khayyam?'
"'Oh,' replied Kerrigan, I'D just
as lief have drink Of Chianti-wine.
"The party broke up, and only
Kerrigan and O'Brien remained, and
then OBrien, turning a withering
look upon Kerrigan, remarked: Ker-
rigan, I'm ashamed Of you. You we're
trying to talk literature, and livery
time you opened your mouth you put
your foot into It, Don't you know
that Omar Khayyam is not a drink,
but a cheese Washington Post

1t is true of course as Secretary
Redfield says. that low wages do not
constitute the
Economic Conditions only cause of
At Fault i m m or al y.
Yet it will not
do to overlook the effect economic in
fluences have upon such wrong doing.
The fierce struggle for gain in which
we are all engaged is responsible for
many wrong things as well as for
much good. In many ways it is a
heartless system and it is only natural
the conditions of the struggle make
some people look with eager eyes on
what seems like easy money. The
evil is not confined to any particular
strata of society. That desire to profit
makes bankers fall as well as men in
lower walks. 1t causes society DANES
to swindle. 1t is responsible for the
magnitude of the liquor business. II
is largely responsible for white slav-
cry and directly or indirectly for much
ether crime.
1t may be set down as a general
principle that people are the products
OF conditions. That principle has been
absolutely demonstrated in the animal
world and what is man but a rising
animal. OF course there are many
bright and pleasing instances that
constitute exceptions 10 this rule but
such exceptions only prove the rule.
Therefore it follows that economic

Governor Hodges, of Kansas, who
served for eight years as member
of the senate of his
\ Single House state, is an ardent
Legislature. supporter of a single
house legislature. He
has advocated the plan to the legis-
lature ana suggests that a single legis
lative body be created composed of
two members from each legislative
district. He would have the governor
serve as an ex-officio member and as
presiding officer. He would have the
assembly meet as ofetn as the exigen-
cies of the public business demand.
In his message recommending the
new plan Governor Hodges said:
In common with large and grow
ing number of thoughtful people,
am persuaded that the instrumental
tiles for legislation provided for in our
state constitution have become anti
quated and inefficient. Our system is
fashioned after the English parlia-
ment. with its two houses based up
on the distinction between the nobility
representing re the diverse interests of
these classes. No reason exists in this
state for a dual legislative system, and
even in England at the present time
the dual system has been practically
abandoned and the upper house shorn
of its Importance. and l believe that
we should now concern ourselves in
devising a system for legislating that
will give us more efficiency and quick
er response to the demands of our
economic and social conditions and
to the will of the people"
Governor Hodges plan would pro-
vide fewer legislators upon whom re-
sponsibility would be directly center
ed. They would have more work tc
do than do individual legislators now
but they would be entitled to more
pay. Most of the arguments for com
mission government for cities apply tc
the state as we'll.
