Definition of Creole"

Pasadena News: Because a native
son of Chinese parents elected to mar
ry a "Creole" from New Orleans the
young man found difficulty at first, in
getting the ceremony performed. A
Los Angeles paper states that while
there is a law preventing Mongolians,
negroes and Creoles from marrying
white persons there is no statute pro-
hibiting members of races not Cau-
casians marrying with one another.
Inferentially, this gave the Chinese
American his loophole for license.
Of course, it is an unforgivable slur
on the descendants of a Latin race
among whom, in Louisiana, there have
been governors, representatives In
congress and United States senator's.
Who and what are the Creoles :?
They are today the children of French
or Spanish parents born in Louisiana
speaking the language of their Euro
pean parents as fluently as they do the
English tongue, having all the rights
of American citizens yet not calling
themselves Americans, but Creoles.
They differ from their transatlantic
stock, says George w. Cable, much as
the face of nature in Louisiana differs
from that in France. The title of Gre
ole, in spite of the apparent derivative,
criollo, did not at first belong to the
descendants of Spanish, but of French.
Its meaning in time implied certain
excellence of origin, and so came early
to include any native of French or
Spanish descent, by either parent,
whose non-alliance with the slave race
entitled him to social rank.
In his informing book on the Creoles
of Louisiana, Mr.. Cable points out that
later, the term Creole was adopted by
not conceded to-the natives of mix
ed blood, and is still so used among
themselves. 1t has been commercial
lied in manufactured goods, as sort
of tribute to a proud title. The Aca-
dians. children of the Novia Scotian
exiles, banished by British arms in
1855, are Creoles only by courtesy.
Neither Spanish nor American domi
nation, notes their HISTORIAN, has TAX
en- from the Creoles their French ver-
nacular.
This, also, is part of their title. "In
fine" declares Mr.. Cable, "there seems
to be no more serviceable definition of
the Creoles of Louisiana than this:
that they are the French-speaking ma
tive portion of the ruling class" We
hazard a guess that the young wo-
man calling herself a Creole is en-
titled to the term only by courtesy.
She probably comes under the classi-
fication Of "mixed" blood and is not
the native ruling class.

sonableness of orders and DEGREES is
sued by the railroad commission may
not be inquired into by any court IL
the state and is, therefore, matter
for federal cognizance only.
That the legislation of the right OF
eminent domain is vested in the com.
mission and that the commission may
make awards without the intervention
of jury, but that payments must be
made in advance.
The Importance of the decision is
borne out by an extract of the find
ngs, which says:
"In view of these considerations, we
regard the conclusion as inevitable
that the constitution of this state, ir
unmistakable language, created g
commission having control of pubic
utilities of the state, and has author
zed the legislature to confer. on that
commission such powers as 1T may see
fit, even to the destruction OF safe
guards, privileges and immunities
guaranteed by the constitution to all
other kinds of property and its own
ers.
at is, perhaps, the first instance
where a constitution itself has de.
clared that legislative enactment
shall be supreme over all constitu
tional provisions"

Importance of Good Health

In the Department for Better Bah
les" in the January Woman's Home
Companion appears an article entit-
led "The Importance of Good HEALTH
by Dr. S. Josephine Baker, director OF
child hygiene in the department Of
health of New York City. Following
is an extract which tells the two mair.
causes of disease.
putting aside the organic and more
chronic diseases that occur almost eX-
clusively in adult life, let us consider
the two main causes of disease. First,
the germ of infection that is the actual
exciting cause and, second and ever
more important, the non-resistance OF
the individual. Much has been writer
about germs, and the few varieties Of
disease germs have come to assume
such an.important position in the pub
lie mind that bad name and un-
deserved evil reputation have beer
given to all forms of germ life; yet
the great majority of bacteria OF
germs are not only harmless but act
ually beneficial and necessary; in
deed, we could not live at all if ii
were not for the millions of little liv.
ing organisms that work for US in al
forms of vegetable and animal life,
If the harmful germs, unaided, could
cause the disease whose names they
bear, few of us would be alive, fol
we find them everywhere and moi
many of us escape exposure to them
every day and many times day.
The way to avoid disease is not only
by attempting to kill the germs but
by making and keeping the body SC
strong and we'll that it will resist all
attempts of the bacteria to gain a
favorable place for growth. The real
lesson of this applies to babyhood, be-
cause there may be laid the foundation
of strong bodily health and disease
resisting qualities. Fresh air in abun-
dance, nourishing food to increase the
bodily strength, and attention to the
functions of the body to help elimi-
alton of waste products are the three
best methods we have of restoring
health, no matter what the disease
So they are, also, the best method we
have of preventing disease, for like
three watchful sentinels they stano
guard against and repel the invasion
of harmful, disease-inciting bacteria
The point to be remembered is that
bodily resistance to disease cannot be
gained rapidly and the lack of it is
often realized too late. The child who
starts life handicapped with low vital
ity is out-distanced in the race of life
almost before it has started

STATE COMMISSIONS POWERS
SUPERSEDE CONSTITUTION

San Francisco, Dec. 22.-In holding
road commission directing the Pacific
States Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany to make physical connection with
Independent telephone companies in
Tehama and Glenn counties was ille-
gal, the state supreme court conceded
to the commission the right of emf
nent domain and held that the board
may make awards without the inter
vention of jury, but that payments
must be made in advance.
The court held that the commits
sion's order resulted in taking away
property from the Pacific States Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company with
out due process of law and is, there
fore, void. The effect of the decision
is to render imperative part of the
public utilities act which gives the
commission the right to regulate the
affairs of the telegraph and telephone
companies for the public good.
Just previous to the decision the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company, the parent organization of
the Pacific States company, offered
voluntarily to permit connections and
the use of its lines to independent
concerns.
The railroad commission had fixed
rates which the Pacific company
might collect from subscribers of the
other companies for use of its long
distance lines, but it was conceded
that no compensation had been pro-
vided for in the ruling compelling the
Pacific company to share it's wires
with rival organizations.
The decision was written by Justice
Henshaw.
The justices split in three divisions
on a number of questions raised. A
summary of the conclusions of the de
cision follows:
That the legislature may legally
confer unusual and additional powers
on the railroad commission, unre-
strained by other constitutional pro-
visions. The deprivation of jurisdic-
ton of the superior and appellate
courts of the state, in matters affect
ing the railroad commission, may not
be questioned.

Bans Electric Signs

Paris, Dec. 22.-Illuminated adver-
Using does not make a hit with the
French and the art has just received
a severe blow here. A judgment has
just been rendered forcing landlord
to pay damages and to order electric
signs removed from his premises, the
case being brought by his own tenants.
The ground floor tenant operated a
moving picture show, the owner of the
building authorizing him to advertise
a la Broadway. Upper floor tenants
thereupon took action. The Paris
newspapers are complaining because
the "boulevards are getting to be as
hideous as the electric sign lined
streets of American cities"

Hunting Season Casualties

Philadelphia Press: Hunting is a
sport from which a frightful sacrifice
of life and limb each year seems in
separable. A western journal gives a
tabulation of the casualties that have
occurred during the saeson just end
ed. 1t is an appalling list, and all the
more appalling because the death or
injury in each case was wholly un-
necessary and could have been avoiled.
Twenty-one states are included in
the calculations of the statistics. More
than 100000 hunters are reported to
have been in the field. OF these 135
were killed outright and 14O were in
jured, some of them seriously. Thirty
seven hunters accidentally shot them
selves to death; "a others were killed
by the carelessness of their hunting
companions. Seventeen were killed
and ten injured by the pernicious prac-
tice of some hunters to fire at any
thing they see moving in the brush.
Sixteen were drowned while hunting
for game.
The chief sufferer among the states
was Wisconsin, with 20 dead and n
injured. Michigan came next, with
20 dead and 16 injured. New York
was third, with 10 dead and ! injured,
Some curtailment of the privilege
of carrying and shooting firearms is
needed. No man should be permitted
to hunt unless he has had experience
in the use of firearms. 1t is the mex
pert on the hunting field who is a
menace to himself and to others. The
experienced hunter rarely does dam
age to human life.

Popular With Autoists

Electric tail lights are becoming
more popular with autoists since a
few of the less lucky have learned, by
costly experience, that the plea that
an oil lamp has "jarred out on the
road" has little effect on the magis-
trate. The electric light will not jar
out, and is cleaner and less trouble
some than the old style oil lamp.
