This would seem to be pref
ty big order, calling for wis
dom and judgment far exceed
ing the tabled acumen of Solo
mon, but Mr.. Capelle goes further.
He decides upon the features of
the present fashion that he con-
siders detrimental to morals. and
specifies that there shall be no
display of transparent stockings
in public places" that no "un-
draped real or artificial figures
shall be displayed in department
stores and he forbids the wear
ing of any outer garment trim
med or combined with lace, in
sertion, or any kind of embToid-
cry, mesh, or net, through which
the color or texture of the skin
may be distinguished"
Also, he fixes a rigid dead
line for the low neck gown by
providing that not more than two
inches of the neck below the chin
shall be uncovered
1t is hard to believe that a bill
of this nature is needed in Ohio
If it IS, Mr.. Capelle has. in bu-
collie parlance, got the wrong pig
by the ear If the women of Ohio
must go bundled up like mum
mics in order not to tempt the
men it isn't the women's clothes
that need reforming. II is the

Americans. and they must surely
resent the implication that Mr..
Capelle makes that they are so
degenerate that they can not be
trusted to look upon a nice girl in
a lace-trimmed shirtwaist, and
with her neat ankles inCased in
openwork stockings, without be-
ing filled with unholy thoughts, to
say nothing of their having to be
protected by law from the fatal
fascination of wax dummies i'm

The Corrupt in Mind.

Irwin Cobb once defined a per-
feet gentleman as man who
could say leg and think limb,
and that description holds good.
To the pure all things are pure,
and to the corrupt everything is
rotten. MIR. Capelle's imagination
evidently belongs to the latter
class, and he would see evil in
innocence itself. though it were
cloaked in a meal sack
A woman once asked the great
DR.. Johnson if he thought the
nude in art was immodest.
NO" he replied, but the ques-
ton is"
The same comment may GER
tainly be made on the bill to pro-
hibit the wearing of decollete
gowns or lace-trimmed waists by
women.
The menace TO society is not in
the women mode of dress, but in
the decadent minds of men who
can see anything suggestive in
the soft white throat of girl or
the CLEAN of pink flesh through a
bit of semi transparent embroid-
cry

When a Bills a Joke.

Time was when a woman IN
tights on the stage was truly
shocking. but such a costume Is
just part of the spectacle now to
which we do not give a second
thought nor a second glance. The
South Sea Island girl who wears
sweet smile and a bead neck
lace is just as modestly attired,
according to the styles in her
country. as a Fifth Avenue dame
in a sealskin coat is, as judged
by the standards Of her set.
The truth is that propriety Is
in the eye of the beholder. We
see in everything just what is at
the back of our own minds, and
those who find the present fash
ions of tight skirts, and Dutch
necks, and peekaboo waists de-
moralizing need to do something
to correct their own moral OBJ
liquity of vision. It's their men,
tai attitude that's wrong, not the
styles.
OF course, any bill to regulate
women's clothes by law is joke
Women dress to please men, and
men are pleased with the way
that women dress, OF else Wemsn
wouldn't dress that way. The
normal, wholesome-m minded man
finds nothing to cavil at In the
present styles. or else his sweet
heart. his wife and his daugh-
ter wouldn't be going about IL
pipe stem skirts and silk stock
ings and pumps.
The Ohio legislator would have
to seek further than women's
clothes for the source of immor-
ality.

Contented a. home with pulling out
an occasional bullhead from the Iowa
river, Clint Smith, who formerly lived
on the Lennox farm in Marietta town
ship, but who is now visiting in Idaho,
is not now going to be satisfied until
he lands 400-pound sturgeon.

Smith, living southwest Of town. left
d few weeks ago in his automobile, in
company with his family, to visit rela-
tives at Payette, Idaho.
Being an ardent fisherman and
anxious TO try his luck with the sturg-
con in Snake river. Mr.. Smith landed
one weighing 10 pounds, Now he is
going to try for larger ones.
An Idaho paper, received by the
young mans father. tells of the sons
accomplishment as follows:
Clint Smith, of Marshailtown, Iowa.
who is visiting at the home Of Q. c.
Stout. near Fruitland, seems to be an
expert fisherman. as he had no trouble
in landing a sturgeon a few days ago
that measured seven feet nine inches
in length and weighing 10 pounds.
Mr.. Smith had never fished for
sturgeon before. but was induced to try
his luck and while he did not ge: the
largest of the season. he did get one
that was large enough for all the
neighbors to share. Now that he has
got the knack of it he believes that
he will he able TO land one OF the 500

ROW At CITY PARK.
Each combatant Charges Other With
Assault and Battery

What started as a friendly wrestling
bout at Riverview park Sunday after
noon ended in an assault and battery
case in which both wrestlers charged
the other with assault. The blood that
was spilled led to the spread of rumors
of a stabbing.
Ole Perfect and Frank Wigs were
the wrestlers. Perfect claims that
Wigs got furious for some unknown
reason after they had been wrestling
and belted Perfect over the head with
a club. Blood streamed from the scalp
wound over the front of Perfect's
shirt, and spectators thought he had
been stabbed. Perfect claims he did
no more than shove Wigs away from
him after he had been struck.
Wigs alleges that Perfect assaulted
him and filed complaint alleging as
sault and battery. Perfect filed a
similar complaint against Wigs.
There being no officer in the park
the patrol was summoned. Officer
Hurd answering the call. No arrests
We're made at the time. but later the
complaints were filed in the mayors
court where the cases We're set for
hearing this afternoon.
