PARASITIC MORAL SQUAD. =
What do you think of man who lives
off the earnings of a wOman's body?
Does not contempt express it mildly?
And yet we have in our midst a group
of men, the moral squad, who are
making their living by employing
every seductive method known to
make women immoral Now, the
parasite and the moral inspector are
alike, because both make their liV-
ing off of the unfortunate women.
Only the moral inspectors get
theirs in a roundabout way under
the false pretense that they are rid
ding the city of vice. The fact that
they, through the fining system, have
collected $4,000 from the unfOrtUn-
ate women of Chicago does not prove
that they have accomplished any
thing in cleaning up Chicago. 1t only
proves that they have taken this
money away from the fallen women;
it means that these women will have
to sell a little more; be little more
ingenious in their methods of sell
ing; save up for their next arrest
nothing more.
A prostitute is like a dope fiend.
You may make it harder for her to
prostitute herself, but, believe me,
she gets there just the same. And,
say, what is the matter with the
shelter house proposition? Would it
not be a splendid idea to invest some
of that $4,000 that the austere group
of moral inspectors have collected
from the fallen women to give them
home, whereby some of these girls
who lead a joyless and disgraceful
existence may become rehabilitated.
We have more than welcomed the re-
Mobilization of the dope fend! Why

THINKING.-Your remark that we
get inspiration from what others
think is true. Most of us never think
at all unless some one stiTs US up by
trying to show us where we are
wrong. But is it true that we should
never get to think alike? Are there
not some things that concern the
welfare of all, about which enough Of
us must come to an agreement to
enable us to do the things?
think that it is because we do not
think, but allow ourselves to be
moved by prejudice, that the progress
Of civilization is retarded.
Henry George said that he was not
so much concerned about mems VOt-
ing as he was about how they were
thinking. If we think right we will
vote right. But in thinking as well
as in everything else that we do, in
order to get right we must keep on
trying.
We must learn to think by keeping
at it, and so it is not safe for us to
accept a conclusion upon the author
ity OF another person.
Every opinion should be tested by
our own knowledge and power of rea-
sOning before we assent or dissent
as to it's validity. There seems to be
nothing in the present election to
which we can apply the test of rea-
son. Appeals are made solely to par
ty and religious prejudice. Which
ever way we vote we are likely to be
disappointed with results.-Geo. V.

tndia,s Aluminium WeaItn.

India offers a great field for f,alre
supplies Of aluminium. There are
great deposits Of laterite and bauAlte
from which aluminium is deriVc:]. It
Is said that the Indian product could
DC placed on the market at igure
but little more than half that t:f the
present quotation. The use Of this
natal is handicapped by the ccst at
present, and if the metal could be
secured at lower cost its field OF
usefulness would be greatly expanded.
There are many comparatively &C.
cessible points where factories for the
extraction of aluminium could be ln

The Valuable Quail.

Th. most expensive meat in Amer

the bird may be moderate enough, but
the loss caused by killing it is an
other matter. Competent authorities
ESTIMATE that each quail is worth from
SO to s25 to the American farmer, as
a destroyer of insects and devourer OF
weed seeds. This is particularly true
in those parts of the South afflicted
by the boil weevil Quail are as
fond of weevils as weevils are of cot

noticed that when his fields are well
stocked with quail the Gotten crop IS

About Sound Waves.

One of those scientists .5ho are al
ways developing apparent paradoxes
in thought has come forward with the
statement that sound itself is not tx
traneous, but exists only because OF
nerve. In other words, if the ears o:
Toe human race were removed tomor-
row the world would be absolutely
noiseless to humanity. The contention
is that the sound waves, travelling at
rate of 1000 feet d second, create
ilv.a!5le ripples in the air just as
peel ripples when rock is thrown
into it. The greater the force of these
waves the louder the sound. But there
is no noise until these sound waves
strike the sensitive nerves Of the ear.
Thus, reverting to the original PROPOSE
ton, the air waves themselves would
be noiseless did they not operate IL
conjunction with the human sense OF
hearing
