vide pains and penalties for women who
appear on the streets or IN public places
in 'immodest and indecent attire We are
confronted with a condition that should
seriously concern US ala condition that
the COED women of the country are not
tamely toierating.
Thank God the good mothers have
begun a crusade against this evil. Mil
lions of our women need nothing but
their innate modesty and inbred sense Of
propriety to tell them what to wear and
what not to wear. To this class Of
women, the home, the State, and the
nation must look for their strength and
inspiration in all the years to come.

Distributed Holding.
Commenting upon the increase in the
shareholders of the country's railroads,
President L. F. Loree, of the Delaware
and Hudson Company, who was for
merly president of the Baltimore and
ClllO 1NdlA"dSB Sldlcu III u
view that the diversity of the security
holder porteTds greater safety on the
part of the railroads. President Loree
also entertains the belief that not only
are the railroads Strengthening them
selves through the wider distribution of
their securities, but that the increased
ownership means a better understanding
between the public and the railroads
which perform the work Of carrying on
the nations commerce.
President Loree comments on the rail-
road ownership as follows:
When people really consider the fair
ness or unfairness of a proposition, their
final verdict is generally correct. The
greater the number OF stockholders in
transportation enterprises the greater is
the assurance that the roads will re-
ceive the same kind of treatment as other
semi-public service corporations.
The greatest weakness of the rail-
roads in the past has been that their
stock has been SO largely in the hands
of institutions and large investors. Ten
years ago the stock was held in compare
lively few hands. The growth Of the
sales of odd lots of stock has undoubtedly
had the effect Of attracting many small
investors.
Il consider the movement important,
and the system of purchase by partial
payment, which gives not only the saver,
but the Garner a chance to acquire
