in spite OF the resignation of JOSEF n
Ca!liaux, minister OF finance. Call

sary by his wffe's assassination OF
Castor Calmette, editor of Figaro.
Madam Csaillaux, who caused this up
heayal in French political life, Is
meanwhile in st. Lazare prison. Her
husband today took an AFFECT ng
leave of the officials OF the Mill
istry of finance.
Acting ON information given by
Madam Caillaux the police today
took possession of various papers IN

Cafllaux had received an intimat:on
that Calmette was about to publish
these letters and it was this that led
her to attack him.

lINDEcENcY AND art"

a ~.
Mayor Harrison suppressed five
ehort plays which made up a bill at
the Princess theater in. Chicago, ana
the men who have charge Of the box
office declare he has struck blow at
art.
The masterpiece in which the mayor
and his censors refused to distinguish
between indecency and art" are called
"Hafi Kari" 'En Deshabille." ANY
Night 1.-THE Black MASK and '"The
Bride" the suggestiveness Of the titles
being exceeded only by, that of the
dialogue and the action. One tells OF
an illegitimate love between an Ameri-
can girl and a Japanese; another Of a
divorce who gets into the wrong room
and finds il occupied by former hus-
band; another Of a bride who during
her husbands absence receives three
former suitors, whom she hides in va :
rious places, and upon her husband S
unexpected return gives them over to
the police as burglars, and 80 on.
Such stuff is art" only in the minds
and the vocabularies OF prurient per-
sons. who desire to salve their con-
sciences and their self respect, and
| managers who like to have some ex-
cuse for getting rich off nastiness.
Chicago is hardly the place to which
the world first would look for a wave
of moral reform. but Mayor Harrison
nevertheless is entitled to some credit
for having brought theater men to un-
derstand that there Is limit beyond
which they may not go in the staging
OF indecency. Experience has shown
that the managers themselves Will
place no limit.
Just as in the case Of the so called
sex novel, the excuse is offered that
people demand plays Of this sort and
are willing to pay for them, Ergo
people must have them. Dealers II
opium and other debasing drugs NIGH
make the same claim. Similar defense
of his trade might be offered by tht
white slave merchant. The argument
is q miseYable one in every way. Mas
tiness on the stage has no excuse t.
offer for existence. and the more cities
that follow the example Of Chicago
| the better.

Why NO. IN MARSHAL couy1y,

There's one room district .sehoo,
out IN Nebraska that is doing rood
work Three afternoons a week the
school takes up domestic science. That
is' tho girls cook things and learn. how
10 keep house. Sewing is part OF the
curriculum Of that school The boys
are studying elementary agriculture
and doing some experimenting on their
own hook So well is the work beans
done that it has attracted the attention
OF the United States commissioner OF
education and is the subject of n bull
letin from his bureau.
Now not every country school
ma'am is competent to teach cooking.
Some of them are scarcely fine seam
stresses but that needn't stand in the
way Of tri-weekly lessons along these
lines There are dozens Of good cooks
In every district. plenty Of women who
know how TO sew and cut and haste
clothes and there isn't the slightest
difficulty in interesting these to the
extent that one Of them may be de-
pended upon TO overlook and assist in
the weekly lesson in any one of the
lines indicated. And 1t might be said
in passing that these women compe-
tent to give this help will come from
the happiest homes in the district and
of the thriftiest farms; for without
good housekeeping there is, no. real
happiness or thrift or good homes The
studies taken up tri-weekIy by the
little Nebraska schco! are OF the most
important learned there.
1t offers suggestion to teachers and
the women of the district schools Why
not a woman's club for such service
and why not semi-weekly cooking
and sewing class in every school? The
school ma am who expects to have a
home Of her own as all school ma'ams
do. might learn a valuable lesson while
she is earning the price of her trous-
seau and the various articles of house
furnishings she intends to take with
her" To the girls of the school the
assistance Of the women Of the dis
trict would be invaluable.
Why doesn't some district in Mar
shall county try the Nebraska plan

n.ssnAll1owr,s GUESTS.

To be a good convention town is
feather in the cap Of any town. And
in this Connection it should be crafty
ing to Marshalltown to know that; her
reputation as a pleasant town to visit.
it is good and growing better. Within
the past month several organizations
have expressed their wish to hold their
state meetings here. The P. E. O..
would like to assemble their state
chapter in Marshal1town If it might be
arranged. It is we'll known and under
stood among members OF the Knights
of Pythias as that the state lodge waits
only for the asking. And there are
others.
The best way to make and maintain
reputation as a good convention town
is to look after those who come as
guests of the city, to afford general
assistance to those upon whom the i'm
mediate responsibility falls and to offer
the general glad hand to delegates, to
make the guests Of the city feel that
they are welcome and ask them all to
come again. Hospitality is never
poor investment.
Next week Marshalltown congrega
tionalists entertain the state meeting
of the Congregational association OF
Iowa. 1t will gather from every corne,
OF the state men and women Of pur-
pose and intelligence as delegates. bust
ness men and club women and OF in
fIuence in their communities chris
tan and purposeful people representa-.
tive of the church and the citizenship
Of Iowa. With it comes the annua
conference of the Congregational min
istry of the state. It is expected tina
400 communities in Iowa will be thus
represented here.
Let us meet these ministers and dele
gates with true hospitality. Such
gathering surely honors Marshalltowl
equally with a convention of post
masters or a state lodge meeting or
political convention. They will carr:
back TO their communities clean Gu
