ARE WOMEN DIsHonEsTa

The Law society, which controls the
discipline of the British legal profess
sion, has voted not TO admit women
as solicitors, after a debate in which
the argument was advanced that the
average English woman has not yet
learned to be honest" This is g. sim
gular charge to make in the face of
woman's proved fidelity to practically
every kind of trust in business and
public life. There is in this country
at least virtually no--difference OF
opinion as to her honesty, while the
view even obtains that as between the
sexes women are the honester, IL any
thing. How many women default or
run away with enbezzled funds? As
respects woman's intellectual honesty,
masculine opinion of 1t is evidenced
by the growing employment of women
as confidential secretaries of bankers,
CORPORATION presidents and men at the
head Of large business enterprises
says the New York World. If there
is case on record of their betrayal
of an employers interests it does not
occur to mind If the average Eng
lish woman" has not yet learned to be
honest she must be thought to have
Jagged behind the American woman In
moral development, unless, indeed, the
charge is dismissed as a libel pro-
ceeding from masculine bias

If certain New York BARRIERS have
their way the conventional quarter
win no longer pay for haircut, and
the price viii be lacked up to S. cents,
with no trading stamps thrown in and
no lotions to account for the extra
dime. The proximate cause is that
the BARRIERS need the money, but the
remote cause is the falling off in
the number of patrons who desire to
be shaved because the safety razor
has made sad inroads into the ton
serial domain, says the Boston Globe
The haircut man, however, remains
fair game and is going to be trimmed
literally and figuratively. If the hair
cut tariff is to be revised upward, in
all fairness the schedules should be
arranged scientifically, and this would
mean a sliding scale to meet hfrsute
conditions. Men who retain only a
remnant of their once browning glory
should be let off at the old price, for
surely that is enough to pay for the
clipping of fringe. If this isn't done
there may be movement to return to
primitive conditions, when the wife
took the shears and cut her husbands
hair.

tod Demand From Foreigners
Greater Than From Our Own coun-
Try and Appears to Be Growing.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, March 20.-Uncle Sam
wants more folks to patronize his book
store. The number of patrons is al
ready large but nothing like what i,
should be, in the opinion of the officials
most concerned.
The trouble is that most people dom,
know the government gets out some OF
the most valuable publications which
are to be found anywhere and gets
them out at low price. What the
officials In charge of the documents
and publications want is advertising, SO
the folks will know what they have to
sell. Public Printer Donnelly and
Superintendent Of Documents Angus,
Donath, have urged congress to give
them fund so they could advertise to
the public the books and documents
they have to sell. But congress has
turned a deaf ear to such appeals.
In spite of this, however, the govern
ment printing office last fiscal year
sold over 100000 worth # documents,
books and publications of various sorts.
And the demand is growing for them
The impression is general that all the
government documents are given away.
This is not the case. A limited number
of publications are distributed by mem
bers Of congress who have certain
allotment given them for the purpose.
But large numbers are sold, just as
they would be from publishing house.
The government printing office pre-
pares long price lists and catalogues
Of publications which it has for sale at
til, ooCt
These catalogues are to some extent
distributed tho not nearly as freely
distributed as the superintendent OF
documents would like to have them.
The lists comprise remarkable and
Informative lot Of publications covering
all manner Of subjects.
81 Will Advertise Some Day.
Probably congress one Of these days
will take steps properly to advertise the
publications which it gets out. Then
the sales will be much greater than
they are now, tho they are rapidly in
creasing from year to year. The in
formation contained in the scope Of the
government, publications is well-nigh
invaluable. 1t represents the research
Of many years Of some Of the best OF
authorities in many fields. For in
stance, no student Of history Of the
United States can find anywhere more
valuable material than is to be found
In the government publications. Stu
dents OF army matters. OF naval mat
tiers. Of agriculture. Of finance. OF an
thropology. Of geology. and SO on. ind
no end Of lore worth their attention.
1t is an interesting fact that, while
comparatively few people understand
the value OF the collection Of govern
ment publications which are on sale,
they are understood outcsi lie the United
States For instance. heavy sales of
government documents have been made
in recent months to Japanese students
and representatives of the japanese
government.
