FIGHTING STILL GOES
ON IN F0RM0SA

/. Hong Kong, July 25.--Fighting
still continues in Formosa be-
tween the natives and the Tapa-
nese, in spite OF the superior
arms and resources of the latter.
In one OF the recent collisions, a
band OF 200 tribemen were
moved down by machine guns,
losing q quarter Of their number
IN dead and wounded. Yet in
spite of forced retreats, the For
moSans seem to present as dit
hcult a problem in pacihcation as
the Spaniards are facing in Mo
rocco. Owing to the wild and
rugged nature OF the islands,
which has never been explored
by foreigners, the tribemen are
able to eiude the forces they SO
seriously annoy.

COUTURE OF THE MOMENT
Fashion Demands That There Shall
Be Height to Add 70 lts
Attractiveness.

No longer can we simply part the
hair at side or center and let 1t fall
plainly back, TO be finally rolled on
the neck, or otherwise caught up
loosely. On the contrary, there must
be decided height TO the fashionable
couture, and this exactly at the right
angle to give the full appearance be-
tween the nape Of the neck and the
apex Of the dressing, on which so
much of the effect depends.
Then, too, the hair must now be
waved and beautifully glossy and its
charming lines disposed in such a way
as to give just the support and finish
demanded by the millinery Of the mo-
ment, a great change from a short
time ago, when the ambition Of the
hat seemed to disguise the fact that
the wearer had any hair at all

AMERICA CONTRIBUTES
ART TO PARIS

farlS, July 25.-The latest adj
dltlon to the Paris Art World is
an exhibition Of American Art
BY typical American Artists.
! he exhibitors this year are
bryson Burroughs, Curator Of
lalntlnSs at the Metropolitan
Museum. New York, and Earn
est Lawson, OF the Art Students
League, New York. The work
OF the two artists is entirely diff
1erent. Lawson belongs to the
futur1Stic Impressi bnostic
school, the palette knife being
used more extensively than the
brush while Burrougs' work,
especially his figure groups, are
on the order Of mural decora-
tons, and the influence Of Bot
tlcclll may be clearly seen in
them. Lawson, in his land
Scapes, has admirably caught the
clear American atmosphere.
Every detail stands out in bold
relief; there is no soitening mask
OF haze, or dim suggestion of fig
ures, such as one finds in the
works of Corot and his contem-
poraries. The criticism has
been made that his colors are too
striking, but when the right per-
spectiye has been obtained, they
become dislused and soften i'm
til they melt into a harmonious |
whole.

thing they had with purchasable
value-their bodies.
1t was this necessity of relieving
fathers of the support of girls that
brought contempt upon spinsterhood,
for it meant that the woman who did
not marry had been unable to find a.
buyer for herself and continued to
remain a burden on her father.
And then, whether from the pity
and sorrow in the heart of a mother,
or the impotence of a father, or the
desire of the girl to relieve herself
of the stigma of being burden, l do
not know and do not care, but girls
began to sell their housekeeping abil-
ity to families where there were no
daughters or where the daughters
could be taken care of.
The odd part of this is that men
have since invaded fields originally
established by women. There are men
cooks, buffers, Wallets, walters, dress
makers, milliners, hairdressers and
beauty specialists.
Working as a servant, however,
placed the girl in a position lower
than her original one and forced her
to mate, if she mated at all, in class
beneath her own.
Then, too, the girl who supported
herself by being a servant did not
help support the family of little chill
dren when the fathers income was
not sufficient to do this, and, while
am not blaming fathers, because,
next to mothers, they are the best
thing in the world, l am saying that
girl children instead of boys and the
industrial system which did not pay
father a wage that would enable
him to support his family, forced
him to seek some field where daugh- .
tiers might earn money.
And so fathers took their daugh-
tiers to men employers of labor. They
took them to the mills while the

IT Is A PITY THAT SEX, OVER
SHOULD BE USED TO
BY Jane Whitaker.
Miss Whitaker: l have noticed in
most of writings of late that
you are always exalting women as
sort of redeeming force, while it is
a welI-known fact that much of the
suffering in this world today is caus-
ed by women taking the jobs from
men; not only is this true in industry
but in politics and other pursuits as
well-eVen on the police force. If
women would not work for less
wages than men, less women and
more men would be employed and
more happy homes would be main
tanned. Will you please make clear
your attitude through The Day
Book"
There was time, in the quite long
ago, when women we're not a money
making proposition. True, daugh-
tiers worked in the home, knitting,
Sp1uuluS, uO1lS AOuoC"O1h oIIu AcIA LII
chores, but upon the number of
daughters depended the amount of
help each could give, and fathers fig
ured that wife and mother and one
daughter could handle this work
This condition was responsible for
the fact that girl babies were unde-
sirable in any number. Fathers pray
ed for and gave their affection to
their sons, and wives who brought
only and many girl babies into the
world won more or less contempt
from their husbands.
We were too civilized to drown girl
babies as the Chinese did; or to put
them in baskets and chloroform them
as we do undesirable kittens. And so
girls we're early brought to under
stand that the only way they could
relieve their fathers of the burden of |

had thrown dust into his eyes and had
called him a foul name. Both Griffith
and Burns admit that he did throw the
dust. but they also defy that he used
bad language OF any kind.
What angers both Henry and Grifhth
is that neither Ainsmlth or Morgan were
accorded an opportunity to defend them
selves before Johnson when he came here
to conduct his so-called Investigation
of the AFFAIR. Neither was Clark Grifith
given an opportunity to appear in defense
OF either of his men.
Griffith went to the hotel TO see John
son this morning. He was kept fretting
and fuming outside the big mogufs door
for an hour, and was finally curtly told
that he might as well have his time for
something else. Johnson told Grin to
write a report Of the AFFAIR and send It
to the leagues executive Offices.
Inasmuch as he had already done this,
not knowing that Johnson would appear
in person, there was very little satisfac-
ton in II for Grif.
