We have an analogy in the case

since the enactment OF the pure food

reason to believe that the proposed

in the same way.

OUR STRONGER MEN.

The medical examiner Of Yale
comes to the defense of the football
type of young America. He finds
that the average freshman that plays
the game and is eighteen years old
is thirty-nine pounds heavier ttIan
the average young man of twenty
two. He is. forty-fve pounds heav-
ier than the average New England
volunteer Of the civil war period. His
development Of body and limbs is
proportionately greater. In the up
per classes the results are about the
same. If this means only that TIE
larger and stronger students play
football it would have no signifi-
canoe. But the medical examiner Of
Yale has also found to his own salts
faction that the average student at
the university, whether he plays any
outdoor game or not, is much super.
ior physically to the civil war rolun-
teer. He adds his testimony to that
of others by declaring in general
terms that the younger generation
of today tends to surpass its parents
in physical development"
This is one of the best indications
that the tendency of outdoor life plus
modern sanitation and the progress
of medical science are having a
marked effect. It is difficult ID as
sumo that results so decided among
the $500 students of Yale are nut
observable 10 large extent else
where.

to give a description Of the fighting on

named Joaquin, who participated in
the brilliant action of the French in
storming the German positions at Col

In the previous fighting Joaquin

shells, he says, they do not seem to

From the standpoint Of the mar.
ried soldier who is eligible for sep
aration allowance, he must, when ser.
wing abroad, allot "a GEMS a week cut
OF his pay to his wife. If he has chill
dren, he must allot a higher amount.
The rules of service provide that the
wife when the husband is on active
service shall receive one-third of her
,iSfoand's pay, which is deducted and
paid directly to the wife.
"The wife who is entitled to separa-
ton allowance, receives from the War
Office, in addition to the sums men

RAPS THE ADMINISTRATION.
Samuel Gompers Criticises Labor In
dictments Under Sherman Law.

In an editorial in the January issue
Of American Federationist Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor. criticises the Will
son administration for permitting in
dictments of union labor men under
the Sherman law. He declares this law
to be the most serious menace to the
labor movement which now exists.
The law as now interpreted and APP
Piled" said Mr.. Gonlpers in his edi-
toriai, has proved useless in establish
ing control or regulation over the
trusts and monopolies- In a spirit OF
glee these same .monopolies. trusts and
corporations, unframed by the law
which was to have regulated them,
now turn this law against the human
beings who were to have been pro-
tected.
Mr.. Gompers demands that the ad-
ministration give substance. to ITS
conviction" If 1t is mot In favor OF
outiawing organized labor"
The President in his recent message
to Congress strongly Endorsed the prin-
ciples of the Sherman law. but added
that TO prosecute trusts successfully
"the debatable area about it. should
be made more definite.
