What is the price of that red spark

What is the price of that dead man

For other dead men do not look tho

How should I pay for one poor craven

Unhappy, can I give you back your

Though I forgave, wo,Ild any man

You have no word to break, no heart

Women Worst Offenders.
Women are the worst offenders,
and the new order is found necessary
largely on their account. They cause
the police more trouble than the work
men, and besides their drunken habits
result in the present high infant NOR
tality. The Bishop of London says
that clergymen working in the East
End told him they had never seen
such an orgie of drunkenness among
women as during the past II months.
These women of the slums, in fact,
have never been SO prosperous, as
wages are exceptionally high, and
many of them receive separation al
lowances from soldier husbands. The
police courts are full of cases of neg
lect of children by drunken mothers.

cerned about the proposed changes,
