A reliable citizen of Newberry mas
told US of a letter from Berlin, Ger
many, to a party in another city of the
United States, with b1e following
words on the envelope underneath t e
stamp: "Send some food if possible.
We are starving in Germany" Tac
words were revealed when the stamp
was steamed off. All letters from
Germany pass under censorship, which
would forbid tie sending of such a
message. TIE writer of the letter "a
question advised the keeping Of tce
stamp, which was, as intended to be,
understood by the recipient of the let
ter.
In an article contributed to the L-au-
reos county teacher wrote a letter
this sentence: "Only last week Lau-
rms county teacher wrote a letter
which she failed to capitalize and
punctuate." Now, The Herald and
News reporter would like to ask WHO
is to be judge of capitalization and
punctuation? If you want to see taat
it is largely q matter of individual
style and preference, let some one
write letter wit out q mark Of cap
italization or punctuation and send
copies to newspapers and college pro-
fessors, requesting each to capitalize
and punctuate the came. We would
like to see the various copies after
they lad been edited by the different
judges.

The summer resort photographer,
TO be really popular and prosperous,
should invest in a camera with a lens
focused to make a four-inch perch
look like a six-poUnd bass.
But just think how many Amer
leans have been saved from NAL de

Mighty few men would permit their
consciences to write their autobiog-
raphies.
Thirteen Fort Dodge, Mimi, girls
have agreed to walk 500 miles each
year; and those who get married will
do it easily between the stove and the

ton, we will not be responsible for
the consequences if we catch anyone

MANS RIGHTS.-With reference
to the question you ask in The Day
Book as to how much a man is en-
titled to know about a girl before he
maTries her, l believe that the prOs-
pective man and wife should know as
mUch before marriage as they would
be interested to know after marriage.
There is no question for what this
would solve a great many of our diZ
vOrce cases. 40
1t seems CartOOnist Barnes of The
Day Book had somewhat the right
idea in his cartoon directly to the
right Of your inquiry. 1t is a very clev-
er cartoon and you should be an ar
dent advocate of the diaphonous
skirt.
With due respect to the fairer sex,
I believe, in view Of the fact there is
so much misleading makeup, that
you have the right to look into things
which may interest you provided, of
course, you are not taxing the limits
of propriety).-J. M. F. u
