The largest factory Of its kind in the
world is the new ten story and base
ment structure, the Waterman's Ideal
Factory No. 4, located at 1853 Front st.
1t was opened in formal and betting
manner last Thursday. With the
Waterman's Ideal Factory No. l, at "a
70 30 Fletcher ST, with which il con-
meets, 1t provides approximately 4'Oo0
squire feet Of space. The capacity Of
the two factories is 100000 pens a
year.
The building was almost entirely
constructed in cold weather, the work
being carried on right through the last
winter. In order to do this success
fully II was necessary TO take great
deal Of precauton in the way Of heat
ing material and in protecting the
work against freezing weather. Thus
II was necessary 10 use 1870 square
feet Of canvas 10 inclose those parts
Of the building under construction, and
20 generate the proper amount OF heat
about the parts of the structure being
formed twenty salamanders open
stoves were used, in which was burned
$500 bushels Of coke.
With these precautions it was pos
sible TO protect satisfactorily the work
under r Instruction against the freez-
ing weather and to maintain in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the work tenn
perature Of 20 or so degrees. The
building has no interior columns, and
the walls are designed TO act as col
umns in other words. they are rein
forced concrete bearing walls.
At the opening celebration held at
this new factory at 1853 Front ST. there
were about five hundred guests. includ-
ing the members of the New York Ro-
tary Club. with their we'll known choir;
representatives of national, state and
city governments; officers of national
state trade associations and friends OF

began to arrive at . o'clock, and were
received by +. y. Waterman, president
of the company; the officers of the Ro-
tary Club Of New York and staff from
the l.. Z. Waterman Company. includ-
ing the heads Of departments, all OF
whom were uniformly QUILTED in

all know that good doctor is an abb
sOlute necessity, but they have a
pretty easy graft as it is.
l cannot see any reason whatever
why they should be allowed to write
a prescription in some foreign Ian

THE PUBLIC FORUM

CENSORSHIP would like some
0ne to tell me why children are barred
from such moving pictures as "Traf-
fic in Souls? OId-tfne sports know
about such things, at least sufficient
for self-protection.
The greatest benefits of these pic
lures are the lessons taught to the
young, viz, the danger of quick ac-
quaintance, the danger of fluid love,
and the awful slavery of life of i'm
morality; finally the ruinous results
to all participants, even the higher
ups" Such pictures should partic-
ularly be shown to girls and boys
about the age of IA, as they would
leave lasting impressions and be
great protection to them in the fu-
ture.-HeIen M. Allen.

DOCTORS AND DOPE

DOCTORS AND DOPE.-I am
constant reader of your little book
and would be lost without it. l read
every item in The Public Forum and
1 think it a great idea to have a
paper where people can express their
own opinions.
l have noticed considerable COM
ment on the dope fiend question. I
think there should have been prOvi-
siOns made beforehand to take care
Of the dope fiends when the supply of
dope was to be cut off.
If there were not so many would
be doctors to contend with l am sure
there would not be near as many
dope fiends as there. are at the pres
ent time. A lot of cases are caused
by dOped medicine where doctors are
at fault.
If there was a law of some kind
passed to cause every doctor to write
his prescription in the English Ian
guage it would eliminate a lot of their
graft. If l am not mistaken it was a
doctor that suggested the eugenic
marriage law. Again, if remember
right, they also quoted the price ofno
less than $40 to be charged to each
person for examination.
The eugenic marriage in itself is a
mighty fine thing, but it should be

CUT OUT BITTERNESS. - You
had a few letters in your issue of
March 10 touching on religious ques-
lions, controversy and subjects akin.
The first letter asks, why is the ma
jOTity of the public school board in
every city (that know about in the
United States, CathOIic?" Very sim
ply answered when we know there
are 16, 100000 Catholics in the United
States, who should have as much
right to be there as any nOn-Cath-
Ole. They have a perfect right to
hold Office under the constitution.
The fact that they are in the major
ity may mean they take more inter
est in seeing the public school sys-
TEN bettered, or it may mean they
are so numerous in particular city
that they are only receiving the just
proportion and due. Haven't they
given us good treatment as such Of
ficiaIs? If Mrs. Ella Flagg Young
happened to be a Catholic wouldn't
there be a terrific howl about that
terrible financial deficit, about old
fogeyism in the church applied to our
modern schools, etc.?
Let us be fair. What we need more
than anything else these days is fair
ness of mind and ability to see the
other fellows point Of view.

Peace Pageant Success
Hampered by early difficulties in the
matter of incomplete organization,
Cora Mel Patten yesterday demon
| strated that she could rise above diff
culties and inspire the corps of assis-
tants to do likewise, when she pre-
sented one of the cleverest and most
instructive pageants we have yet seen
in the interest of the Peace movement.
Close to two hundred actors took part
in the affair and the finish with which
they did their parts was tribute not
only to Miss Patterns coaching, but
also to their own histronic ability.
The procession of actors with their
flashing colors made very pretty pic
ture as it slowly wended it's way
through the aisles Of the auditorium.
The many dances and tableax were
much appreciated by the beauty-lov-
ing folk and Miss Patten is to be con-
graduated on having produced spec
tacle which cannot fail to inspire
strong sentiments for peace. Miss
Healy, of Chicago, Mrs. Pryor, of this
city, and Miss Blakeslee, of Fargo as
sisted Miss Patten in the coaching.
The Peace Pageant will next be
staged at Sioux City, S. D.
Prof. Squires breaches
Prof. Vernon SQuires, of the Univer-
sity of North Dakota, preached an ex-
cellent sermon at the Sunday morning
service. His general theme was the
shame which should be teh Christians
for the way in which he interprets the
teaching of the Nazerene. Prof
Squires gave many illustrations to
show how far Christian people have
wandered from the truth of the Mas
ter's teaching, notably in the quoting
of texts as an argument for slavery
and the acceptance of rental from con-
demned tenement buildings to further
the interests of endowed churches and
so on. Many Symbols" said the
speaker, "Emblematic of human move
ments have perished, but the Cross of
Cahary will always have meaning"
Dr.. Homer B. Hubert
DR.. Homer B. Hubert, recently from
Korea, and an authority on matters
pertaining to the Far East spoke twice
on Sunday, July Fourth, in the Chau-
tauqua, speaking briefly at the Sunday
school hour in the forenoon, and in the
afternoon delivering a lengthy and in
tensely interesting address. HIS sub
ject for the afternoon was "The Yam
kee in the Far East" and he held the
breathless attention of his auditors
while he reviewed the history of the
poor, downtrodden Koreans. He plac-
ed especial emphasis on the peculiar
adaptability Of their nature to the ad-
vancement of education and religion

With the best day the weather mar
has yet produced during the season
the ChautauQua opened gates yester
day to the largest crowd this year. The
people literally came in locks. They
came in jitneys, in busses, in autos
in motor boats and we almost expect.
to to see some enterprising transpor.
tation agent using dirigible. And
hundreds more hiked it la Weston.
The card punchers at the gates claim
ed that they nearly got writer's cramp
punching the tickets. 1t surely was
an immense crowd and if the movie
man got one fourth of them in his pic
lures he will have a dandy reel.
Laugh and the world laughs with
you" was the motto of the multitude
and it is doubtful if the old grove
ever witnessed so much wholesome,
good -natured, happy-spirited fun and
frolic before.
The generosity of the management
in granting free admission to boys and
girls of IA years and under brought the
youngsters out in force and their un-
disguised pleasure made itself felt in
a thousand noisy ways. Boys and
girls of the more interesting age were
out, too, and goodness only knows how
busy the little winged archer was kept
that day. And adulthood and old age
smiled the while benignly
In the morning, various sports kept
the crowd interested and in good hu-
NOR, but it was not until the afternoon
that the real big events were produc-
ed in the prelude by the Hinshaw
people, an address by Louis P. Loch-
ner, and the big Peace Pageant. In
the evening, the opera company, in
fine presentation of the"Mikado" and
the ever welcome movies brought the
big day to close. .
The men at the gates estimated that
crowd Of between 5000 and 1000
were present during the day. If the
weather man behaves for another cou-
pie of days the financial success of the
undertaking will be completely assur-
ed.
Three Conventions Coming
Three large conventions will be fea
lures of the Chautauqua this week.
The first of these will be the meeting

and the progress, so marvellous, which
the American missionaries have been
enabled to make there during the last
twenty or thirty years. He spoke from
long experience and personal observa-
tion of the terrible tyranny exercised
over these helpless people by the ia
panese, and made plain to his hearers
wherein the American government,
too, had seriously disregarded it's duty
to Korea in time of gravest import
and most serious danger, by failure to
keep with Korea the treaty formerly
entered into. While he claims that the
wonderful progress made by the Jap
anese in their acquisition of western
civilization is largely outward, and
merely for the purpose of achieving
temporal power and wealth, he feels
that the progress made by the Kor-
cans is real and lasting, beginning in
their hearts and showing it's results in
many outward ways. The terrible
atrocities inflicted upon the Koreans
by the Japanese was dwelt upon at
length, his memory recalling vivid
scenes of terror which he depicted to
his hearers. He closed his address
with fervent plea for the ultimate
and complete freedom of his beloved
Korea

Mr.. Louis P. Lochner, secretary of
the Peace League, of Chicago, made
a strong plea yesterday afternoon for
peace. He has just recently returned
