"CLINGING-VI
ARE NOT IN DEMAND

Berkeley, March 5.-The feminine
phalanx at the University of Califor-
MIA has donned it's armor and gone
forth to aid in the battle of DR.. Her
bert L. Cory of the faculty, against
chivalry and mans conception of wom-
an as an "angel' to be petted and
pampered.
DR.. Cory, in last weeks issue of
a college publication, said some un-
usual things about masculine and fem
inine relations.
This week representative women of
the faculty and student body, far from
being angered at his plain speech,
praise him for it.
Here is the text of their argu-
ments:
"The clinging-vine type of woman
is as she ought to be, rapidly dis
appearing, partly because of the ad-
vance of woman and partly because
man has seen her insufficiency.
"What women now want to be and
what men really want them to be is
strong and capable creatures who will
even make the men hustle to hold
their places.
"When this new type of woman has
arrived. man will be chivalrous to
her because she is his equal and not
because she is his inferior"

TO CARRY DRAMA
TO THE FARMERS

Fargo, N D., March 5.-"The Lit
tie Country Theatre" an idea origi-
mated by the North Dakota Agricul-
tural College, today started a move
ment in the Northwest which is ex-
pected to sweep the entire country.
The theatre designed in the agricul-
tural college is in every way NINA
ture of the regular theatre, but is so
constructed that it is adaptable to any
size hail.
The idea of the ''little thaatre" is to
bring amateur theatricals into farm
homes, country schools, village halls
and such places. The simplicity of
the stage settings are such that they
can be easily and cheaply constructed
from the plans made up at the local
college. The plan is more readily
adapted to one-act playlets. Promi-
nent educators who have been shown
the plans and who have heard an eX-
planation of the aim of the little the
atre declare it will add new course
in dramatic art to colleges and schools
all over the country. The plan is in
tended to do much for the entertain
ment on farms and in social centers.
1t will have the effect, the originators
believe, of making the consolidated
school plan and the social centers more
popular.

NEW RATES WORKING
IN CALIFORNIA

San Francisco, March 5.-The re-
duction of express rates by the Cali
forna Railroad Commission whereby
the Wells-Fargo Express Company
was ordered to prepare new schedules
affecting thousands of merchandise
items, is in effect today. During the
next six months the Wells-Fargo Com
pany will keep, in seven principal cit
les of the state, record of ship
ments and earnings, to be later COM
pared with the revenue that would
have arisen through the old rates. At
the end of that period the Railroad
Commission will render final de-
cision that will govern express ship
ments in California. According to
the Railroad Commissions estimate,
the saving to the shippers of Califor
MIA will amount to $750,000 per year.
The traffic records ordered between
March / and November 1 will be kept
in San Francisco, Sacramento, Stock
ton, Fresno, Los Angeles, San Diego
and Chico.

Sanitation on a Railroad


American Medical Journal: 1t has
been said that an army marches on it's
stomach. A modern addition to this
adage would be that it's effectiveness
depends on the health of it's units.
Industrial organizations, likewise,
are learning that attention to santa
tion and the care of the health of the
individual worker is first considera-
tion for working efficiency. An illus
tration of the application of this prin-
ciple is afforded by a report to the
general manager of the Pennsylvania
railroad by the superintendent of an
emergency relief expedition for re-
pairing damage to the railway in the
tremendous foods in western Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana in 1913.
The foods caused the destruction Of
miles of tracks and scores of bridges,
and railway traffic was almost abso-
lutely suspended in the entire flood re-
gion. The enormous damage wrought
to the Pennsylvania lines is graphi-
cally described and illustrated in a
pamphlet issued by the Pennsylvania
company. To open up the roads in
the quickest possible time not only re-
ouired all the resources at the COM
mand of those involved, but also COM
PEELED them to accept the proffered as
sistance of other roads. The Long
Island railroad sent relief party to
the Pennsylvania lines west of Pitts
l., @Lo ,o1 of Sp1nnrln-
tendent Thornton, comprising over ~
men skilled in emergency railway re-
rair work, with the company surgeon,
DR.. ]. Kent Worthington, as sanitary
and medical officer. The wisdom of
providing for the sanitary supervision
of the expedition is shown in the out
come. A complete outfit of medicines,
bandages, instruments, etc, to meet
almost any emergency was provided,
of course, hut outside of few minor
accidents, little work in this line was
required during the neriod of about
a month which the relief party spent
in This work. The chief duties of the
roedical officer We're of a preventive
character. and included close supervis-
ion of the food supply and its prepara-
tion, the water supply and the camps

with proper attention to ventilation,

Another of Wars Inconsistencies.


There is an element of truth, of
course, in the charge made by an OBJ
server of the Balkan war that the eff
feet of the work done by the Red
Cross was to prolong the hostilities
and to extend the area of devastation.
If the men wounded in the earlier bat
ties had been allowed to die-and
many of them no doubt would have
perished except for outside assistance
the contending armies undoubtedly
would have been exhausted much
sooner than they were and the pc
riod of fighting would thus have been
shortened The number of fatalities,
however, would not have been appre-
ciably lessened, and modern sensibili-
ties cannot endure the thought Of let
ting men die agonizing deaths from
which they can be saved.
War in itself is such an unreason-
able thing that logic and consistency
in its conduct cannot be expected. The
nations called civilized are not yet
ready to give up the settlement of
their disputes by method exactly
like and no less absurd than the pri-
vate duel, but, Just as duels are
hemmed about with restrictions that
interfere with the killing which is
their avowed object, so the nations
agree that they will not use certain
particularly effective means of whole
sale slaughter, and that man shot
but not killed shall at once be treat
ed as if he were friend, even by
those who shot him.

Traffic by Auto
Gaining Strength

One of the constant wonders in the
development of the valley is the great
growth of automobile traffic between
this city and San Diego 1t is but two
years ago when it was matter of
speculation whether such traffic would
ever be created, and now there is a
veritable procession of autos passing
over the mountains each way all the
time, the number of people thus trans
ported running high into the thou
sands each month.
The effect of this constant inter-
mingling is to create a closer bond be-
tween the city on the coast and the
valley, which is working out a destiny
that has long been foreseen.
The railroad will still further pro-
mote this fellowship when it comes,
but the automobile is already doing an
immense work for good.

BOOZE ORGAN WANTS
INTO Ell CENTRIC

Local Democrats were called to-
gether couple of nights ago by a
mysterious summons, and were
amazed to find the call came from the
brewery newspaper organ at Impe
rial, which has attempted to turn the
Democracy of this county over to the
control of the brewery it faithfully
serves.
The audacity of the call was height
ened when it was learned that De-
Rackin proposed to start "Demo-
cratic" weekly, dated from Ell Centro
and printed in Imperial, for which he
said he already had ample funds in
hand presumably furnished by Los
Angeles breweries), and all he asked
was that the local Democrats get be-
hind the venture.
DeRackin was given to understand
the Democrats would get behind him

general observations that he considers
the presence of a medical man with
an expedition of this sort as. abso-
lutely essential to it's efficient work
that the theory of this is thoroughly
recognized in military affairs; that
there is no reason why it should not
apply to other classes of work of q
similar character, an army or rail-
way force, and that unless the mem.
bers of an expedition, whatever it may
be, are kept in good physical condi-
ton, inefficiency will result. This rep

HANGING ON

The advice to jus, hang on" is pret-
ty good in general. but not always
suitable to the individual. 1t all de-
pends on what you are hooked on to.
A great many fellows grab on to the
wrong thing, and the longer they hang
on the more kicked and bruised they
are going to get. There are lots of
things that 1t is safer and more profit
able to let go than to hang on to. A
man has to use judgment in this busi-
ness of being persistent. Because d
fellow doesn't want to be a quitter, it
does not require that he be a fool. If
a man sees he has the wrong start the
quicker he lets go the better. A man
might get hooked up with blind mule
and rocky piece of land and hang
on until doomSday, and never make
twenty bushels of corn to the acre. He
might grab on to the end of crosscut
saw and hang on until the woods are
all cleared, and never make more than
So a day. He might became attached
to the dangerous part of a wildcat or
a Missouri mule, and find that hang
ing on was disastrous. A great many
men feel that if they undertake a
thing and then quit, it is a sign of fail
ure. 1t certainly is not a habit to cul-
tivate A man of quick judgment will
select with great care what he is going
to do, and then usually he finds 1t
profitable to hang on; but when he
does make a mistake, 1t is not sign
of failure but a hopeful sign of sue
cess If he lets go Immediately and gets
hold of something more in line with
his qualifications. A great many of
our successful men have tried more
than one thing before they found their
life job. The advice to hang on is al
