WHERE LATIN
 HELPS SOME
A Complete Understanding of Roman and Greek Mas terpieces Gained Only Through Knowledge of Those Languages

Miss Ida Mcdaniel, head of the for eign language department of the high school will demonstrate the relation of Latin to practical life.
 With a series of charts which she hopes to have in readiness early in the autumn, Miss McDaniel will conduct the first Latin exhibit ever held in Phoenix. That it is the initial display is not at all remarkable since the orig inator. Frances Ellis Sabin of Oak Park school, is the only one who mum bers placard exhibits, back more than year
 Here are q few of the truths Miss
 McDaniels is planning to feature:
 l. The knowledge of mythology gained through Latin and Greek
 sources is more lasting than that
 gained through English alone.
 ?. Striking advertisements based
 on the myths of Greece and Rome. The
 business world assumes that everyone knows these stories and to be up-to- the minute in business all its branches must be understood
 3. An understanding and apprecia- ton of the masterpieces of Greek and Roman art may come through Eng fish sources. However the classically trained man is in a position to know them more intimately.
 Classical architecture will be prom inently advanced and Latin as uni versal language will be emphasized Twelve months will be required to prepare the exhibit but according to Miss McDaniel it is well worth it. She declares that the vocational training | the schools now offer has not lessened the number of students in other de- partments, and her Latin register bears out her statement. Of the 215 fresh men who entered last September 10s entered the Latin classes, nine the Ger man and twelve the Spanish. The lat ter languages have two and three year courses and are not generally taken | until the sophomore year
 Few have "droped out" of the Latin ! class. less than a dozen is the esti- | mate given by Miss Mcdaniel. In every instance on record the vale ! dictOrian of the class has been a Latin student and this will be true again this season when the honor falls tc Miss Ruth Coggins.

EMINENT AUTHORITY

Dr. Harvey w. Wiley. for nearly thirty years chief chemist of the de- partment of agriculture of the United States government and one of the great food experts of this age, has recently expressed himself upon the liquor question lr -o uncertain lan- guage This expression is all the more important because Dr. Wiley admits that he is not a teetotaler.
 Dr. Wiley was chairman of the late pharmacopoeial convention and is a member of the revision committee appointed to get out a new pharma- copoeia. The chief discussion of the convention was on the question of eliminating alcoholic liquors from the new book. Here is what Dr. Wiley says about the matter: The argu- ments which have been advanced in favor of the delition of these articles, (brandy and whiskey) are in my op- inion sound and convincing in so far as principle is concerned In brief the argument is as follows namely, that brandy and whiskey are no longer used in medicines in sufficient quantities to warrant their retention in the pharmacopoeia. This fact has been ascertained by consulting large numbers of acting practitioners, who have responded in such a manner as to show that brandy and Whiskey are rarely found at the present time in the prescriptions of the most pro- gressive physicians.
 Referring to the use of alcoholic liquors other than by the doctors Dr. Wiley said: Aside from the practice of medicine what is the general trend of scientific thought on this question ? I may answer that in my opinion the great weight of scientific evidence and the force of scientific opinOn at the present time lead to the conclu- sion that alcohol in it's various forms is an unmitigated evil Personally I would be glad to see nation wide and world wide prohibition. While [ am not a teetotaler 1 am a prohibitionist l am firmly convinced that the evils produced by alcohol so far outweigh any of it's supposed advantages as to lead logically to but one conclusion namely, the absolute prohibition of the use of alcohol for any but industrial 1 purposes
 l Here is what Hon. Cato Sells, pres ent Indian commissioner has to say about the effect of liquor on the In- dians: 'I believe that the greatest present menace to the American h. dian is whiskey. It does more to des- troy his constitution and invite the ravages of disease than anything else

It does more to demorallize him as a does more to make him an easy prey l to the unscrupulous than everything else combined He adds: There is nothing that could induce me. since ! I have taken the oath of office as I commissioner of Indian affairs to
 touch a single drop of any sort of in toxicating liquor, and this regardless
 of my attitude on the prohibition
 question"
 At the suggestion of Surgeon Gen eral Braisted, Secretary Daniels of
 the navy has issued the following or der: The use or introduction, for
 drinking purposes, of alcoholic liquors ! aboard any naval vessel or within any
 navy yard or station is prohibited The commanding officer will be held
 directly responsible for the enforce ment of this order
 Abandoned by the most progressive physicians in their practice. with chances even that it will be dropped from the pharmacopoeia, the authorl- | ty for all druggists and doctors; de- clared to be an unmitigated evil by

 It is suggested by The Republican that either side. desiring to avail it. self of this offer of space. name a committee through which all matter relating to the issue shall be trans mitted. In such case, all communica : tions received at this office from other sources will be rejected. We believe that this arrangement is ne cessary to keep the discussion within reasonable lines.

The very important issue of state wide prohibition has been raised. A campaign in favor of a constitutional amendment will be shortly instituted. This, like all other important ques- tions has two sides, on each of which are found honest and intelligent per sons
 The Republican has decided to pro- vide for reasonable discussion of this issue in it's pages, allowing to each side at least a half column daily for signed articles, for which there will be no charge. No anonymous article will be published.

BIC CuR|o STORE
 OBJECT OF INTEREST
Even Exciting War News Cannot
 Oetract From lt

Notwithstanding the intense interest in the war situation, the popular in- terest in Balke's Big Curio store was unabated yesterday. It was the heavi- est Mondays trade that the store has enjoyed during the summer. That's attributed partly to the fact that more people had come down town than us ual brought by their interest in the war news and while they were there they made use of the opportunity to avail themselves of the bargains of fered by the Big Curio Store. The Mexican war naturally suggested Mex ican drawn work and Mexican Zerapes which in a sense, may be regarded as souvenirs of the war.
 When one finds himself or herself in need of something usually kept at curio store, he moves automatically to Balke's.
 Some time ago the store directed the attention of the public to it's odds and ends of an ostrich feather stock. The response of the public was instant and hundreds got such bargains as they will not get again soon. Now atten- tion is called to the stock of ostrich feather fans. They are cheap but the state of the thermometer indicates that now is thetime to buy them
 Nothing could be nicer than one of these fans as gift to a friend in some other part of the country. It would be a fine souvenir of Arizona the beau tiful feathers from Arizona birds, raised here in the valley. whose feathers ac- cording to reports of the department of commerce are the best in the world.

of snow had fallen in New York this
morning. and it was drifted in places
to more than two feet All trains,
particularly those from the West,

The list includes the America, from
Hamburg; the Campania, from Liver
pool: Savoie, from Havre, and st.

Brought on by a Journey.
Especial to the Newark star.l

MADISON, Feb 14.-Alone, save for
her seven cats, Miss Jane Vanier, an
aged recluse, who for ten years has
lived by herself in the Vanier home
stead, in Park avenue, was found
dead on the floor of her bedroom last
night. She had succumbed to paraly-
sis. which manifested itself two weeks
ago.
The body was found by Health Off
Ger Fred Burnet, who had visited Miss
Vanier every day since she was
stricken. He failed to go in yesterday Y
morning, and last night was drawn to
the house when he noticed that the
shades had not been raised and that
the morning milk was still on the
porch.
Miss Nanier was seventy-hve years
old and was a descendant of a French
father died and since then she has
lived alone, mingling little with her
neighbors and seldom stirring out of

not do that it is declared, because he
believes it would bring him forty-nine
years of i'll luck. He iG caring for

EXPECT THRONGS

! CALL Of CHURCH
Climax of 'Everyone-in- Church
Campaign VIII Be Reached
Tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the day set apart by
the clergy of Newark. of all de-
nominations, when a supreme ef-
fort is to be made to have every one
in the city, as far as possible, attend
church The movement, Everyone
in Church." did not originate here. but
it is safe to say that in no city in
the country has a more determined
propaganda been carried on for a
full attainment of the object sought.
Foremost in active work for this
purpose has been the First Presby-
terian Church. which, with its pastor,
his assistant, Mr.. Hills and the en-
ergetic secretary of the latter, Ray
Stillman is the head centre, as II
were, of all religious activity in the
city.
The movement, Everyone in
Church." is a symptom of that re-
ligious awakening which unquestion-
ably has manifested itself in Amer
lea and of which accumulated proofs
could be cited. From coast to coast
il is apparent to those who are eager
to read the signs of the times. 1t is
evident to those who think at all OF
the church and its mission in the
world that it is alive today to the
fact that, instead of leading as II
should, it is led by the world,
And while the clergy deplore this
condition they admit. where they are

their flocks but of the minister him

.WEDS FATHER OF
GIRL SHE NURSED
Miss Nellie Woodward, OF
Kearny, Figures in Romance
Begun at Sick-Bed.

An interesting romance in which
Miss Nellie Woodward, daughter of
John Woodward, 50 Johnston ave-
nue., Kearny, figured was unearthed
today when announcement was made
of the secret marriage of Miss Wood
ward Wednesday night to William
H. Everson.s manager of the Inter-
woven Stocking Company of New
Brunswick. The romance was of two
months duration.

which grew from a friendship which
ripened into love at the bedside of
Mr.. Everson's daughter. Miss Blanche
Everson, whom Miss Woodward, a
nurse, attended with motherly care
in st. Peters Hospital, New Bruns-
wick, was such a real one that the
nurse really became Blanche's step
mother Wednesday night when the
Rev Charles Stewart, pastor of the
North Reformed Church, this city,
married the couple.
Miss EverSon was taken to st. Pc
ters Hospital during the early part
of December. Her father called upon
her twice a day until about a week
ago, when he took her home. But
both father and daughter had grown
SO attached to the kind nurse that
they decided they could not live with
out her. 1t was the kind, motherlike
care that caused Miss Blanche to love
the nurse, but Cupid's darts shot
through the heart of the widower,
were the most potent factor in the de-
cision of Mr.. Elverson that he could
not live without the nurse, who had
been so kind.
Miss Woodward completed her
course at the hospital-last Tuesday
and the following day she was mar

of Rev. Stewart The couple will start
on their honeymoon the first of the
week, which will be trip through

Paterson Fireman Drives
Truck Into a Pole to
Avoid a Trolley Car

to a fire yesterday, Samuel Fielding,
chauffeur of Engine No. 1, wrecked
the $4,000 machine by driving 1t into
a trolley pole to avoid crashing into
a street car in which were twenty
five passengers. The firemen escaped
injury.
Mrs. Harry Adamson. of 1s4 Slater
street, whose home was on fire, was
burned so badly that her chances for
recovery are slight.
Mrs. Adamson filled the kitchen
stove with charcoal, and then poured
kerosene over it. When she touched
a match 10 it flames shot out upon
her, setting fire to her clothes. She
hurried to a washstand and sprinkled
water. upon herself, putting out the
fire Pie neighbors sent in the alarm.
Several fire-fighting machines re-
sponded.
When Fireman Fielding turned from
washington street into Market street
and started toward Main street a
trolley car loomed up suddenly. Field
ing saw he could not pass between
the car and curb. He had to hit
either the car or run into the iron
pole. He did the latter.
