The Slashed Skirt.

The day wss fine: the skies were blue.
7 saw her IN Fifth avenue,
A picture In the dress review.
With something silken flashing through
The slash In her skirt.
Her manner and her clothes were glad.
She looked quite like a fashion ad..
And. though she wore the hobble fad,
I'm sure she didn't know she had
The slash In her skirt.
All. she was fair as fair could be
And tripped along unconsciously,
Without the slightest thought Of me
Or anybody who might sec
The slash In her skirt.
Perhaps because she was 40 fair
IL made some other women there
Turn half around 10 rudely stare
And whisper, MY. how can she wear
That slash In her skirtT
How different were the menl To them
Her radiant rags, from hat to hem.
Were roses on a lovely stem.
And never did n man condemn
The slash In her skirt.
She trlpped along unconsciously.
Her arfIcas femlninity,
So far from n c0arseness free.
IL really was n Joy 90 see
The slash IN her skirt.
So guielcss was she. tripping through
The crowds along Fifth avenue,
I felt somehow 10 was her due
For mo TO call her notice TO
The slash In her skirt
But I didn't.

The Importance Realized

The congress III being conducted I'M

the United States and Is being support

ment in the universe, showing that at
last we are coming TO recognize the
value Of having n proper foundation
upon which TO build and support the
health OF the individuals who form or
support the various governments.
For tile period of time within the
recollection OF any one living at the
present date the health Of the armies
and nayles Of the world has beer pre-
sided oyer by the most effective corps
OF medical and health experts possible

that the governments OF the world
have begun TO learn that those who
are to be their future citizens should
receive the same care and cons!dera-
ton that is given the armies and ma
yies.
The health OF the school child Is, in
deed, far more important TO the nation
than that OF It's fighting men-in the
next generation nc least.

Precautions Necessary.

Extreme precautions should be OBJ
served by school commissioners and
boards OF education 10 prevent teach
ers who are affected with tuberculosis
from continuing In the service. This
should be done i'm the interest OF the
teacher and I'm the Interest OF the pu-
pills. The solution OF the situation,
however, should not rest simply with
the attempt 10 prevent infected teach
ers from being employed. The school
officials and the patrons OF our public
schools should be united ia an effort TO
remedy the existing conditions, that
the public schoolroom car In no sense
be considered MS n place In which ones
health Is subjected to unfavorable
conditions. A more active interest In
considering the principles Of proper
construction. warming. ventilating and
lighting OF school buildings Will go a
great way toward %remedying this sit
uation.'
