Two little lads with hearts of gold.
Busy at play in an ancient hold,
Each stirring the sand
With a dimpled hand.
As their mamma was wont To do. I'm

When she was a lassie in Mich

Two little smiles Of care free grace.
Beguiling all time a lovable face:
Each looking about
With a lusty shout
AS their mamma had done when in
their place,
When she was a lassie without
any doubt.
Two little tots in grand dads wood
Gamboling at play ~ the neighbor-
AS their aunties have done.
And uncles each one.
AS their mamma once knew and once
understood.
When she was d lassie in quest OF

1t develops that the leading spirit
in the American Humanity league,
with headquarters in New York, which
in conjunction with the Organization
OF American Women for strict Neu-
trality is making an effort 10 obtain
100000 signatures To petitions ask
ing PreS't Wilson TO forbid the export
alton of war materials, is the wife of
a German sculptor in New York city.
The woman advanced the argument
that AS Germany is bound to win the
war anyway, it is better that she
should win a year or two sooner, and
so spare the rest of the world much
misery" She says that the more am
munition that is sent abroad the long
er will Germany be obliged to fight;
but win she will. so why prolong the
day?"
1t is hard for the public to under
stand how an organization, nation
wide in its scope, and claiming great
humanitarian motives as its prime OBJ
ject. should have elected a woman Of
such mental caliber to the position of
chief organizer. If the organization
is anything like it's leader. it is pre-
sumptuous. TO say the least, for II TO
try to advise the president of the
United states on international ques-
tons.

WHY MEN GROW OLD SOONER

We do not wonder that some girls
put off the wedding day as long as
they can do so with safety. When
they look about them and see how
soon the honeymoon ends for some
couples; how quickly the ardOr Of the
lovers cools they naturally want TO
enjoy a little romance before they
too. bow TO the life sentence.
Why is it that so many husbands
lose their love of social life AID be-
come old SO much sooner that their
wives do?' asked one woman. of an
other a few days ago The answer
seems rather plausib bic.
4 figure that about 80 per cent of
them tire OF dancing card playing
and other pleasures so soon because
they have gone such a pace before
marriage that they are prematurely
old or blase.' said woman No. ,. The
other so per cent of the tired and re-
tired are Conscientiously doing what
they think is best for their wives.
They are shaving at the Office 10 pro-
vide comforts for the woman and the
children they love ABOVE all else in the
world
They forget that there is anything
worth while except money. They are
unselfish and really believe they are
making a great sacrifice for their
loved ones
LAS a matter Of fact the average
woman would rather have a little
more attention and less sacrifice at

but a companion.

III Is RANT.

The International Purity congress is
developing some startling doctrines.
Now one Robert G. Barton. executive
secretary Of the morals efficiency com
mittee. has made a statement that it
is impossible for a woman TO be in the
moving picture profession and remain
virtuous.
How Mary Pickford, Lillian Gish,
Mary Fuller and a host OF others who
have grown up, as it were. on the
movie stage. will accept this icono-
elastic utterance. remains 10 be seen.
The man, and woman. of everyday
life, however, will put il down as pure
and simple rant. a bid for notoriety
on the part of its author and let it
go at that. 1t is hardly worthy OF the
storm OF Indignation it has raised
among the movie actresses in Cali
fornia.
There is without question as many
pure and virtuous women in the NOV
ing picture field. propoftionately. as in
any other sphere of activity in which
women play a prominent part. There
is no obvious reason why il should not
be There are certainly fewer temp
tations and pitfalls than the "legiti-
mate" stage presents and. long ago,
the theory that the stage was largely
immoral was exploded.
The reformers of the Purity con-
gress seems 10 be having a hard time
finding anything which really needs
reforming.

LAKES ARE CALLING YOU.


Tourists from all parts Of the coun-
try are this year seeking the Great
lakes for their recreation trips. and
TO those who have never before en-
Joyed the delights of these great wa
terways the large and splendid steam
ers and uneXcelled service will be a
revelation. This is particularly true
of Lake Erie. upon whose waters plies
the great ship "Seeandbee." daily be-
tween Cleveland and Buffalo. This
great ship is 500 feet long, 9S feet 6
inches wide and has 80 stateroOms
and parlors de luxe accommodating
1900 passengers. which equals the
sleeping capacity of the largest hotels
in the country. The splendid steam
ers. City of Buffalo" and CITY of
Erie" also ply on this route and with
the great ship 'rSeeandbee" maintain
daily service between Cleveland and
Buffalo leaving either city at o'clock
in the evening and reaching destina-
ton following morning at 1880
In point Of expense these lake trips
are by far more economical than trav-
Ell by rail. and once one has tasted of
their delights, succeeding vacations
are sure to include a lake journey.

Il co not believe in majority rule.
but am strong champion of indi-
vidua! liberty" According TO a re-
port in the Knickerbocker Press of
June "a. these words were spoken by
Hon. William Barnes as chairman of
the committee on legislative powers
OF the constitutional convention OF
New York. on the preceding day dur
ing a public hearing on the initiative
and referendum, after several speakers
had been heard. This comes danger
ously near TO the belief of anarchists
indeed it is the central belief held
by the upholders of the doctrines of
anarchy. Can the members of the
republican party in which Mr. Barnes
is leader, endorse such a doctrine?
There is nothing i'm the cOnsti-
tuition which says the majority
must rule. We have established
this proposition in America. That
the American nation was eStab-
hshed on the proposition of indi-
vidual liberty. and that the peo-
pie, the governor. the president

If he is not so satisfied, his only re-
course is 10 go into some wilderness
where there is no law. and live accord

JITNEY OWNERS SEEKING AFTER
\ MONOPOLY.

Whether 10 be a. d. Hubbard, Lyle
Hubbard. the Jitney Service Co, any
other jitney owner. the traction COM
pany or whatsoever it may be that is
responsible for the proposed Jitney
ordinance recently sent anonymously
TO the city cGuncilmen, the principle
is wrong and should not be tolerated.
The purpose Of every such ordinance
is TO create n some few a larger mon
opoly. and II there is 20 he "a mOnOp-
oily in the local transportation service,
we would just as soon the traction
company would have IL as the Jitney
Service Co. or anyone else. The ad-
mission of Mr.. a. y Hubbard that he
fathered the particular ordinance in
question. merely serves as a confession
that he too has something of the mon
opolistic spirit.
While perhaps, indeed, quite un-
doubtedly there is no understanding
between himself and the traction COM
pany. there can be but small doubt of
an underlying current OF desire on
the part OF the Jitney Service mag
mates for a monopoly OF the jitney
field. This secured, the question Of
an understanding with the traction
interests might or might not be a
matter of days. or OF moons. The jit-
ney people might as we'll understand
the only interest South Bend has in
them lies in their competitive value to
the community. and, in a desire that
they behave themselves as we'll as
other automobilists Public opinion
favors the jitney. insofar as it does
favor il. as an automobile for the poor
man, or any other man, to be employ
ed for the trip because of the ineffi-
cient service of the street railway lines,
and public opinion doesn't care an
eternal rap whether the aforesaid
poor man. or any other man, takes a
jitney particularly licensed to the
Hubbards. or not licensed at all.
These automobiles, bought for "a
nickel a trip" across town, have as
much right 10 the streets as any other
automobile as long as they obey the
state automobile laws, and if they do
not the operators should be roundly
fined or sent TO Jail We are not
begging any special privileges for
them-only equal rights. The traction
magnate's former pH1ron has as much
right 10 his automobile ride as the
traction magnate has. and South Bend
is under no obligations 10 make it
any more inconvenient that he should
have IT, We believe that public opin-
ion is sound on this point though un-
like the opposition. which pretends TO
have taken a vote and to know exact
~ what public opinion is on the sub
Jet, We venture only TO submit our

surance Of the regulationists that en-
ables them to state public opinion with
