The,e Is a Difference

In the way you care for a
watch. You may have the
very best kind of watch. but
if you do not have il cleaned
and oiled once in every twelve
or eighteen months it will only
last few years. Why? Be-
cause the balance wheel of
your watch makes $4,000 re-
volutions every twenty-four
hours or 157,6S0,000 revolu-
tions each year. You cannot
expect those parts of a watch
to last long unless thev are
cleaned and oiled. Now is
the time to have that watch
cleaned and oiled.

Reported Engagement of Famous Child of North
Mailed" by Explorer-Father

PORTLAND, MAINE, Sept 27.-A
romance of the Frozen North has
been shattered, a romance redolent
with the atmosphere of the Arctic,
romance in which the name of the
daughter Of the discoverer Of the
North Pole was linked with the name
Of one of her fathers sturdiest ad-
herents.
When the public prints announced
a few days ago that Marie Ahnighito
Peary would become the bride of
Donald Macmillan, the famous ex-
plorer those sentimentally inclined
sighed a sigh of sweet satisfaction.
Here, indeed, was perfection in TO
nance, the famous Snow Baby, born
far above the Attic circle, was to be
the bride of a man who had conquered
the terrors of the North.
The only trouble with the romance
is that it's not so, at least not ac-
cording to Rear Admiral Robert E.
Peary. From his residence on Eagle
Island the discoverer promptly tele-
graphed when he saw the reports of
the engagement: THE report that my

ATLANTA'S VICE
WAR A SUCCESS
Weekly Cites Lesson Taught by
Chief Beavers in Editorial
in Recent Issue.

Atlanta's success in its war on the
social evil is hailed as exemplary in
an editorial in Harper's Weekly of
last week.
The editorial is headed "Neces-
sary?" It is a declaration against
the argument that prostitution should
be tolerated as essential. 1t reviews
the history Of the fight waged in At
lanta by Chief Beavers and by tbs
leaders of the Men and Religion For
ward Movement. and follows this
with the briefer statement of sim
liar crusades that are being arranged
elsewhere.
The editorial is as follows:
Atlanta is one Southern city OF
considerable size which has de-
clared that prostitution is not a
necessary evil. The campaign for
the closing Of the houses Of pros
titution was the outcome OF the
Men and Religion Movement. II
began in June. 1912. with a series
of powerful and convincing bull
letins, published as advertise
ments in the daily papers, pre-
pared by Marion Jackson, a tai
ented young lawyer Of the city.
John ]. Egan, chairman OF the
executive committee, financing
the work.
The facts were first disclosed
by an investigation in which ev-
cry woman of the underworld
was interviewed The usual OBJ
jections to the suppression of the
houses OF prostitution - that
women would be scattered else
where, the streets would be in
tested. and the hotel degenerate
into houses of assignation-were
discounted by the established fact
that these supposed results of
suppression were already album
dainty evident beforehand.
Four months after the publica-
ton of these bulletins began,
Chief of Police Beavers closed the
houses; the women were cared
for, many OF them gladly leav-
ing their old life, and one OF them
giving $500 toward the estab-
lishment of Martha's Home,
where fallen women are taught
how to support themselves hon
estly State laws and municipal
ordinances were found to be suf-
ficient, once public sentiment was
| aroused, to the support of a cour-
ageous official, and 1t is asserted
that the evils supposed to be in
creased bys suppression have ac-
tually decreased, with due dill
| gence on the part Of the police.
