SAYS RUBBISH HEAP
IS A FIRE MENACE
Cleanup Efforts Only Direct
Method of Efecting ReduC-

campaign. May to May s.
The insurance man has sharp eye
for the rubbish pile. Not only is the
rubbish pile fire menace, but like
the pimple on the face, it Is an lndi-
cation Of a condition. The smooth,
clean skin indicates a healthy organ
ism. and when the exterior of the
premises looks clean and orderly it
is an indication that the interior Is
also in a like condition.
Legislators. insurance commission
ers. city councils, are constantly en-
deavoring through laws and regula-
tions, to reduce the insurance rates,
believing il is a duty they owe the
public to compel the insurance men
to assume the liability for a lower
compensation. IN spite of these eff
forts insurance rates have been adj
vancing in most localities. No laws
or regulations aimed at insurance
companies can possible reduce the
rates.
Must Reduce DOSES.
Insurance rates must be sufficiently
high to pay the losses and the eN-
penses for conducting the business.
and in order to decrease the rates we
must first reduce the losses. The an
nual lJss from fire In the United
States is about $500, 100000. The loss
from fire for each inhabitant in the
United States is about seven times as
much as that of the leading countries
Of continental Europe, where the in
dustrial and physical conditions are
similar to our own, and il follows
that the insurance rates in Europe are
as low as their fire losses
For the city of South Bend to call
attention to dirty premises will
eventually affect insurance rates, be-
cause cleaner premises Will mean
fewer fires. and fewer fires will ulti-
mately mean lower rates. OF course
other communities besides South Bend
must do what we are doing. because
our loss is only a small percent OF
the total fire loss in the country. but
other cities are doing what South
Bend is doing, and by the force OF
example we will some day arrive at
a condition where we do not burn
as many buildings each year as we
construct.

New York City,

I wondered what the fate of the fun
skirt will be.
1t is acknowledged that so far. eN-
cepting in New York City. the skirt
that measures three yards or more at
the lower edge and is held out with u
reed or crinoline is not generally worn.
Perhaps one cannot say that this skirt
is generally worn in New York. 1t in
too new. too extreme, as yet for that.
But nevertheless. the full skirt is aC-
cepted in New York.
Yet every now and then the thought
that New York is devoted to this new
skirt is troubled. \ skirt like that Of
the good looking little suit of black
and white checks causes the trouble
some doubt.
Is the new skirt, as it now stands,
of the sort to become popular? Is it
becoming enough to be worth while?
Has it that rather indefinable. evasive
quality dubbed style" by most women?
The full skirt in its last phase had
style, and was almost always becom-
ing-the full skirt that was pleated
fiat and smooth about the hips. Its
flare at the ankles was pretty. Its
appearance was trim. neat. and every
woman liked il.
The future of this full skirt is still
undecided. We may like tive may
discard il, as We discarded the cape.
the Minaret tunic. the pannier, before
II has had more than passing popu-
larity. Like the pannier, it may re-
turn in a season or two, improved to
the point where il is decidedly like
able. For the pannier is valuable
adjunct to many of the prertiest even
ing frocks of this winter. yet the pam
nier was discarded two or three years
ago.
Nobody knows about all this as
yet And, therefore, nobody can be
sure that the wide skirt just as 1t is
will not be accepted.
The smart little suit of checks al
ready referred to is one of many
smart little suits of checks. Black
and white are to the fore again.
They are used in checks, in stripes,
even in plaids. And pipings, buttons,
sashes. and other decorative features
of black are used on white frocks
with good result.
Black and white. and color with
it, are well used by some dressmakers
For instance, I saw a charming frock
with a black and white striped silk
skirt. white chiffon bodice. silk
Jacket of the stripes, and girdle,
buttons and buttonholes and various
other little touches of bright blue

AND NOIRS

One of the most frequently mis-
judged queens Of history. Mary Tudor
unfairly called Bloody Mary"-was
born 500 years ago. the daughter of
Henry VIII of England and the first
of his six wives. and 1T seems clear
that she inherited much Of that kings
unusual abilities. 1t Is said that when
she was but four years old she was
proficient in playing the virginals, he
musical instrument then in vogue for
young women, and when she was only
nine years old she could write with
the greatest ease in Latin. Later she
learned Spanish. Italian and French.
Although Henry VIII was exceedingly
eager to secure her the best Of In
structors, her mother gave her her
first lessons in Latin.
From the time that Mary was two
years old, negotiations were constant
ly in progress for her marriage, but
it was not until she was long past
her youth that she was actually mar
ried to Philip of Spain. who was
eleven years her junior.
One Of the most admirable traits in
Marys character was her loyalty and
devotion to her husband. who little
appreciated the treasure of the love
Of SO sincere a woman. The blot on
her reign is the persecution Of the
Protestants which began about six
months after her marriage to the
Spanish king. and which lasted for
three years. Modern historians do not
count this persecution SO much a fault
of the Queen or Of the church 10
which she was devoted as a piecs Of
Spanish cruelty. The fact remains
however. that because of this persecu-
ton, which she sanctioned. her death
was hailed as a cause for national re-
joicing. and her name has gone down
to history as Bloody Mary"

NEW YORK POLICEMEN

Woman's Gratitude.

: New York, Feb17.-There is one wo-
man today who knows all policemen are
not hard hearted. Mrs. Catherine Gill;
gan was to have been dispossessed. Po-
lice Captain Duggan found that her hus-
band, Thomas, chauffeur. had been
out Of work for six months and for sew
eral weeks suffered from bronchitis. The
woman herself was ill-the constant care
of her sick husband and the worry of
providing for him and their two chill
dren, Anne. two years old, and Mary.
five weeks old. having undermined her
health. With pitiful pride she shrank
from charity. She tried hard to keep up.
The police found work for Gilligan.
You're a good man. said Mrs. Gill;
gan at the station. But Tom can't
take the job. You'd better be finding
some one else that needs 1t. He can't go
out in this weather tit was raining) and
him hardly out of a sick bed. He has
no shoes
Then the police searched their lock-
ers. A pair of footgear was brought
out The woman selected one TO fit her
husband Then they spoke of her own
physical condition and wanted to send
her to a sanitarium. She became fright
ened. She did not want to be separated
from her loved ones.
II know I can't stay here and live.
but I can't be separated from my ba-
bies.'
And the kind hearted policemen did
not press her, but took up collection
for the poverty stricken family.

Is your housekeeping done with AN

forever peering about to see what
your neighbors are thinking, what
they are doing and whether or not
they are looking at you?
Do you get up at a certain time in
the morning because a rising hour at
that time is most in keeping with
the sort of life you lead. with your
various duties and pleasures. or just
because you think that folk on your
street were up and doing?
Do you worry about the clothes that
are hung out on your line? You
wouldn't dream of hanging out those
shabby, faded rompers of little
Tommy's for fear your neighborS
would wonder whether you were neg
lecting little Tommy. Rather than
that you. would have the laundress
hang those to dry in the laundry.

are always hung, for fear of neigh

A Mans Reason.

What do men know about il any way?
II was yesterday that high authority
IN the art of bowling in Washington
said that the reason why there were so
-rv- women who were good bowlers was
,,., au.ao Of three things-high heels, mar
,uw skirts and stiff stays.
\ mans explanation on the face OF IT,
.,r Gerry woman knows. in the first
lace that skirts are no longer narrow,
and that for the last three or four
months n woman might have worn
Town the skirts of which might amply
meet the requirements of both fashion
and the dcmands~of bowling. And stiff
.tavs-why no one ever hears of such
hincs any more. They have been out
# style for over two years and the re-
cent rumor that they were to come back
has turned to nothing. The most recent
-orset news is that with the return of
he empire mode the figure is to be even
less restricted than ever.
And then as to high heels. OF course.
women realize that for all except the
daintiest foot the slipper with high heels
lS most becoming, nut tneTe arc ways VI
Getting around this difficulty. Haven't
women managed 10 adapt high heeled
slippers to the most difficult feats OF
dancing? Hasn't she devised ways TO
strap the slipper into place, to lace II
with ribbons so that it gives ample sup
port for. the ankle and instep?
Just the way in which women have
adapted the mode to the demands of
modern dancing shows that the restric-
lions Of fashionable clothes have little
TO do with woman's lack of success as
bowlers. or for her failure to win laurels
i'm other forms IF athletics. 1t usually
happens that women change the fashions
81 suit their tastes. and that when there
is d will there is always a way as far
aS fashions are concerned
We will just have to admit then that
IN" reason why the majority of women
don't become champion bowlers is be-
cause there is no strong appeal in the
sport to the average woman. or because
there arr. too few bowling alleys or be-,
cause they have never thought of bowl

lucky day Mars. Jupiter. and the Sun
are in benefc aspect. while Mercury is
mildly adverse.
1t is a time deemed especially favorable
for buying and selling. \ period of wide
spread speculation is foreshadowed- For
tunes will be made and trade expanded.
but many will be unluCky. and he who
is wise will safeguard his interests.
There is a sign IL--veiously promising
for whatever concerns steel. This good
augury extends to engineers, contrac-
tors, manufacturers, structural ironwork-
ers and machinists.
The seers foretell period of extraor-
binary activity among those who build
sewers. Sanitation will occupy the atten-
ton of the world, it is predicted, and the
United States will contribute many i'm
portant inventions.
Surgeons and dentists should benefit
when Mars is in the place occupied in
today's configuration. Fame for a man
in Chicago is prophesied.
Bankers and brokers continue to be
subject to the most stimulating influ-
ences. They will prosper greatly in the
next year. but they are warned of a
panic that will affect them for a brief
period.
Today's conditions are peculiarly ia
vorable for efforts meant to improve the
health. Interest in hygiene will increase
among all classes.
An astonishing evolution in public SEN
timent is foretold. The Sun gives evil
dence that men and women in high sta
tons will identify themselves even more
closely than ever before with whatever
is for the common good. A young wom-
an philanthropist will establish new re-
forms in the West.
Uranus Is in a place read as sinister
since it indicates danger to the people OF
the South through race antagonism. The
aspect is interpreted to mean that there
is a growing peril through the use of
drugs among negroes in prohibition dis

Persons whose birthdate 1t is should
avoid speculation this year. With care
both men and women may be fairly pros
porous during 1915. Romance is indicated
