HOW A NEWS STORY
WOULD LOOK If Mr..
BRYAN HAD HIS WAY,

The other day in San Francisco, Mr..
Bryan, in his speech on journalism,
among other things, said that there
should be a law compelling newspa-
pers to print the names of the men
| responsible for the news and other
matter appearing in their columns;
that reporters should sign their names
to the articles they write; editorial
writer's, dramatic critics, sporting edi-
| tors, and all

top fioors-Henry Smith, general

and the loss of life was entirely among
those on the one next to the top.

Mr. Bryan's scheme was once tried

was that the reporters insisted on

Baby in Spotlight.

Baby in Spotlight.
The baby was made much over by
attorneys, newspaper men and others
in the court room, and was taken to
a candy shop. where a reporter bought
a sack of .weets and handed them
over to the little fellow. AS the little
party emerged from the shop John
Below, the jitney car driver who took
Miss Bennett to Braxton at the time
she grabbed her baby while members
of the J. o. Teasley family were all
playing with him in the hallway, hap
pened along, and congratulations were
in order Belew insisted that the baby
have his first ride in his jitney car,
and took Miss emmett and the little
one for a spin.
In making his talk before Judge
Featherstone, Mr.. Burch stated that
Miss Bennett had not formally and le-
gally given her baby away, that when
the child was born in shame at the
state charity hospital the mother was
not sure that her parents would re-
ceive her back home if they knew of
the birth of the infant. The child, he
said, when three weeks old, was given
to Mrs. Grady Smith to keep until the
mother was sure of a home for the
youngster. Later Miss Benefits rela
tives forgave her, and offered to pro
vide a good home for the baby.
Question personal One.
Mr.. Helton, in discussing the mat.
ter, said he wanted it understood
that the question of giving up the
child was purely personal one, and
not in any sense involving LOCALITIES.
He took occasion to say that he
thought it but right and just that Mr..
Smith should, to some extent at least,
be reimbursed for the money he had
expended in supporting the baby 21a
years.
Mr.. Burch announced that Miss
Bennett was in somewhat straighten-
ed circumstances, and had but suf-
ficient money to go to New Orleans,
whereupon Judge Featherstone said:
'"There will be no costs in this whole
matter. l am only too glad to do this
for everybody involved"
The happy mother, long separated
from her baby, is now speeding to-
wards New Orleans, where. she says
her baby shall have the best of care
and attention. She has bitterly re-
pented of the sin of her youth, and de-
clares she will try to make amends
by bringing up her child so that he
will be a great man in the years to
come.

FRANCE NOW BARS ALCOHOLIC DRINKS

Paris, Nov. 19.-tsNo strong drinks for any one before noon and no strong drinks at any hour for women and young people of both sexes under Is years of age'' Such is the goverll- ment order that has finally opened the eyes of wine merchants to the earnest, ness oB the anti alcohol campaign in France By strong drinks" are meant all beverages testing over IS degrees of alcohol. They include most of the .sapernifs'' or appetizers, and all bran dies and liquors.
 In the opinion of most wine. mer- chants the measure kills the noon ap-. petizer; and the prospect of the loss of considerable portion of their trade. 'sIf we can't pursue our busf- ness,' they say. i've can no longer pay our heavy rents.'' As the wine merchants are among the few who have paid their rents regularly their menace has involved protestations real estate owners.

 Distillers who have fereseen further restrictions in the sale of alcohol have anticipated them to a certain extent One of them who produces a beverage that largely replaced absinthe reduced the strength of his product from 40 degrees alcohol to B degrees. The temperance advocates and government authorities contend that if the strength of such drinks may be reduced from 40 to 23 degrees without appreciabIe harm to business it can Def urther re- duced to less than Is degrees with great benefit to the public. Many wine merchants also philosophicalIy con clude that the man who drank strong liquors will content himself with mild CT ones.

BELGIAN NEEDS ARE
PRESENTED FOR CHRISTMAS

In response to telegraphic ap-
peal from the national commission
for relief in Belgium, stating that
supplies ON hand In Belgium are
only sufficient to last into January,
the Kansas Belgian relief commit
tee today sent out an appeal to the
people of Kansas for Christmas con-
tributions for this cause.
Mrs. Ida M. Walker, chairman OF
the women's section Of the relief
work in Kansas, has sent strong
letter to clubwomen and other lead
ing citizens in every county asking
them to take charge of the work in
their respective counties and help
complete the campaign for 10000
Belgian family food boxes. The sum
necessary to do this and what 1t Is
hoped can be raised, has been ap-
Iportioned among the various coun-
ties.
Specially printed envelopes, for
warded from the New York head
Quarters of the commission, were
received last week and were mailed
Ito the club women in the towns and
cities who will raise their county's
apportionment. These envelopes are
to be distributed by families with
1.-THE request that they be passed
around the Christmas dinner table
for contributions.
A statement by Herbert Hoover
chairman of the commission, and
also an appeal by President Wilson
asking American business men tC
help the work, has also been issued
Mr.. Hoover, in setting forth the
situation, says:
1--WE have resolved to come
