 weight in China and suggests permanen-

 which carried less dignity Japan and | Germany are pointed to by the writer as efficient governments which show the value of the monarchial form of govern

New York December 4.-(Special.) Dear Birmingham Public: It will be hard to give any consecutive idea Of the vast field of social service work being done in this city, the fountain head of the mass of good, bad, and in- different for the whole country, the ex- perimental station and the model for all workers.
 Here in the metropolis is the biggest field, and here can be worked out the problems that are forever here, in greater degree as we have them in lesser, therefore, if the tryout Is a success in the biggest centers, it is bound to be worth while in the smaller ones if properly adjusted to the neces- sities and environments of the smaller community.
 The problems of the south are identi- cal to a greater or lesser degree with those of the east
 Social workers in New York say that never in the history of the coun- try has there been such lavish eX- travagance in living, entertaining and dress.

Correct Sewing Position

Puckering is usually caused by hold ing the right elbow close to the side in sewing The needle, of course, contin- ues to slant and half of the stitch be- comes wider than the other half. Nat uarally, if this be by only one thread in long seam a pucker must ensue, But if the elbow is brought slightly forward and the hand held so that the inside of the palm faces the sewer, the needle will point straight, and both halves of the stitch will be of the same size.

 A gas engine will baclSfire because some of the charge Is still burning in the combustion space when the intake valve opens.

to have advised recently that the change in the government of China would be in- advisable at this time. Other foreign diplomatists in Picking are also said to have advised against the plan Of the So- ciety for the Preservation of Peace.
 Legation Halted Step
 The position of foreign representatives has been responsible largely for a halt in the plans and the suggestion that the presidency be made hereditary. thus mak- ing it possible for Yuan Shi-Kai and his family to be assured of the highest office without. the change from the name re- public to that of monarchy. Of course. it would not be necessary to get foreign recognition if the form of the government were not changed.
 Many Chinese papers have ridiculed the idea of an hereditary presidency and prominent leaders in all sections of the country are assailing it as ridiculous and unthinkable. Or. Ariga, the Japanese ad- wiser, who is regarded as a high au- thority on international and constitu- tional law by the Chinese, was asked by members of the Society for the Preser- vation of Peace for an authoritative ar- tcle on the question of an hereditary presidency. The distinguished Japauese is reported to have replied that such an ar tcle would be difficult of composition un- less he discovers scientific reasoning and historical precedents' upon which he car base it. Even the Chinese public regards the hereditary president idea as humor- ous and the Society for the Preservation of Peace is anxious to find some au- thority who can put it in a more dignife6 manner than it has been presented up tc date.

Gray will be represented by stronger
team than that which made such a
splendid record a year ago. Tormey said
that he did not like to discuss the play

position to make comparisons. but as a
whole he thought the squad was much
more capable. He said:

than in previous years. Our one fault
