And the ceaseless war In the wicked

Give me the song OF the meadow lark.
The draught dipped fresh from the

The peace that comes when the world

Instead OF the sli-night reveling.

The freedom borne on the air that blows
Through the wheat. instead OF the killing

That the slave In the crowded city goes.

The Michigan State Telephone Co.

permission TO install a meter system
as the best possible method OF i'm
proving the telephone service by elm

ager In charge of the Detroit office.
The offices Of Mr.. Sunny and Mr.. Burt
are In Chicago
III Is not case Of money with us"
said Mr.. Sunny. I'VE are anxious to
improve the service and give the peo-
pie or Detroit first-class service. On
account OF the enormous growth OF
the city the number OF four-party
lines and the almost constant use or
the telephone we are unable to do
this under existing conditions. The
installation OF meters would not nec-
essarily mean the increasing OF tele.
phone rates. II will cut off thousands
OF useless calls per day and give us
chance to increase the efficiency OF
the service.
We cannot impose upon the peo-
pie In this matter and we have no
intention OF attempting 10. II is up to
the railroad commission to hear our
petition and decide on the proposed
change In classification The railroad
commission has not been consulted
with as yet. although | understand
that the commission has investigators
at work in the city now learning what
the trouble with the service really Is.
Whatever defects there are In the
telephone service are attributable to
the enormous Industrial growth Of the
city during the past five years. Be-
cause OF the number of party lines
and the heavy traffic on the lines Ii
is possible TO complete but 20 out Of
every 100 calls. Elsewhere II Is cue
tcmary TO complete 80 out of every
100 calls Also heavy users of tele-
phone service among the business
houses have an insufficient number
OF telephones and switchboards TO in

A Call for Mothers

WHILE their daughters turkey
trot" and bunny hug OF parade the
streets dressed more after the fash
ion of the woman of the streets than
OF modest girlhood, where are the
mothers? II th~oughtless girls do
such things. what will be said OF the
mothers who have so far forgotten
the duties of motherhood as to per-
nit or encourage them?
At Palm Beach the other day when
a thoughtless Cor worse) young man
had made all ARRANGEMENTS for the
Younger set to trot in bathing cos
tunes on the beach TO the accompani-
ment of a talking machine. a mother
who had a proper sense OF her duty
declined to have her daughters take
part in such a proceeding and the vul-
gar performance was nipped in the
bud.
But where are the mothers who de
mand a restraining hand Do they
no longer care about the a~musements
their daughters seek? Are they nc
longer concerned how their daugh.
tiers dress? Is maidenly modesty be
coming a thing OF the past?
A revolution IN and NOR
ais is taking place. with little or nc
protest from those who should BIZ
first to speak-the mothers. The
vogue of filthy and beastly dances il
supposedly good society. the vulga1
and suggestive styles, and the gener
nj laxity of conduct, even among
boys and girls still in their early teen,
constitute a terrible Indictment OF tn,
mothers OF the day whose eyes have
been so blinded that they do not se'

will restore the simple customs tina
used to characterize the period o
childhood and youth.-Frank Les

The Straight Path

THE straight and narrow path is
growing straighter and narrower
each year. The time was when a
man escaped from a prison he stood
a chance on this broad earth TO Set
away and stay away. The day has
passed. Between the Bert,1ion meas
urements. the rapid delivery of mail.
the wireless, the telephone and the
telegraph. the man who side-steps the
prison and hopes to continue crook
ed work is lOSt.
OF the escapes from Nevada few
are at large. They had what looked
like a chance for liberty and freedom.
Between the slueths on their trails.
the ex-conS who meet and know them
and the everlasting lodging of peace
officers, the man who escapes is in
mortal fear of life and freedom.
There is but one chance for such
a man. He must go far beyond this
coast. He must lead a straight and
decent life. as the first time he is
picked up his record is found and he
IS returned. It has been tested out
too many times and found wanting.
The day of the free life in. the new
section is passed. as there is no new
section.
