Placed Under Arrest.

A panic was narrowly averted in
local dance hall last night, when a
drunken woman, crazed with whisky,
wildly pursued a crowd of men about
the waxed floor, knocking one dancer
down in her mad rush. The belliger-
ent one, Rose De Foe, whose husband
resides in Davenport, became peeyed
at certain crowd of young men, and
to clean them.
When they invited her to start in,
she took them at their word and start
ed rough house. Three youths were
chased up an alley for over a block
before they could evade the grim pur-
suer.
In police court this morning, Rose
was on the verge -.-.- I'm t~e-Cns.

BY WINNIE LEE
That woman is exploited by man
the wide world around is the cheering
bit of information which Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, head of the interna-
tional suffrage organization, has been
spreading since her return from q
circuit of the globe.
Of course, the average young
American citizen has hardly felt that
any of his interests were seriously
threatened by this suffragist verdict.
But perhaps he would better wake
up!
From letters which have received
lately from girls, it would seem that
the young mans most cherished per-
quisite, spooning, is imperiled!
Spooning is form of exploitation,
the girls seem to think. 1t looks as if
they had found out that they are
being made to pay in sentiment for
every entertainment which costs a
man any money!
One girl has actually asked me to
fix scale of prices for her!
"HoW many Kisses" she asks, sis
a theater ticket worth?
as one goodnight kiss enough for
a man the first time he take you out?
SIS a ten-cent picture show worth
more than an ice-cream soda when
reckoned in hand-cIasps?
as the man who takes you to a
dance in a taxi entitled to more
spooning than the one with whom
you go in street car?
eff we girls have got to pay men
with kisses for all our good times, or
else stay at home, think we ought
to fix some sort of a tariff to go by"
Evidently the girls, you see, now
realize that spooning, once the prero-
