III I UT lOlAL GOEO
, ART INSTITUTE; plan
Chicago clubwomn will be asked to
investigate the life class at the Art
Institute by Mrs. heonora q. Meder,
chief of the dept of public welfare.
Mrs Meder, after hearing of the
collapse of a girl model at the insti-
tute, searched her civic powers in an
effort to find some means of putting
an end to nude posing.
1T is horrible to think of the life
class at the Art Institute said Mrs.
Meder. What is art that it should
be placed above womanhood? 1 know
there are many girls who are tempt
ed by the good money they pay mod
els, which is naturally much better
than department store wages, and in
time lose all sense of modesty.
81 believe this girl who tainted col
lapsed as much through constituencies
and nervous strain because of being
looked upon by a roomful of students,
as well as from any other reason.
81 will go before all the important
women's civic bodies and ask them to
work for law which will forbid
the employment of models to pose in
the nude"
1t is expected that Mrs. Meder viii
ask the Woman's Civic club and toh-
er similar bodies to act this week.
The case which brought about
Mrs. Meder's action was the collapse
of a girl named Dorothy, who tainted
while posing.
Dorothy has worked as model at
the Art Institute ever since the cry of
wartime hardship" caused so many
big employers to discharge girl work
ers in wholesale lots.
When that time came some friend
told her that with her face and figure
she could make "aH kinds of money
posing at the Art Institute.
So Dorothy applied for and was

hours in a room where there were no

that she would have to sit there all
that time with the eyes of a rOOmful
of art students upon her.
But she needed the money very
badly and she faced the ordeal brave

Dorothy's fainting caused rather
an unusual amount of excitement in
the life class. Young students seemed
to sense something of the cause Of
the girls collapse and they were in
a furry of excitement when the Off
Gals of the school arrived.
Every attempt was made Ito pass
over the affair lightly. The school
officials. seemed quite shocked when
reporters found about the collapse of
the girl. The opinion voiced by sew
eral students that poor ventilation
might, have ben responsible was re-
ceived very coldly by the officials.
Later, Thos. L. Keane, dean of the
school, issued a formal statement:
Models in the life class frequently
faint while posing. It is quite COM

cause of indigestion or some similar
trouble. Even models who wear
clothing when they pose are likely to

Sam c. ClYatt Believed
, Dead Comes to Life

Valdosta, Ga, Sept. 25.-This city
was astounded by a report publish
ed here this afternoon in the Val
dosta Times that Sam C. Clyatt,
former mayor of Triton, Ga, a lead
ing turpentine and lumber operator
who has been mOurned as dead for
nearly four years is alive and resid-
ing at Birmingham, Ala. He left
his place Of business at Hahira four
years ago with several hundred
dollars on his person to buy options
on timber lands. That night his
horse was found at Mineola and his
buggy near Double Bridge, with his
coat, hat and shoes on the ground
near there.
The theory was that he was
murdered and his body placed in
the river. The water Of the
river was dragged and dynamited
and the search kept up for
months, but was finally abandon
ed. Recently Chief of Police
Damper located hin in a western
city and traced him to Birming-
ham, where he has been living
for several months. His affairs
were in good shape when he dis
appeared and the announcement
that he is living has produced a
sensation. Why he left home as
he did is an unsolved mystery.
1t is believed that he will return
to this section, now that it is
known he is alive and not so
very fay away. He carried con-
siderable life insurance, bat his
family has not tried to obtain it,

1t seems that he and Bob Burrows
had gone down to the pond near the

Neither of the boys could swim but
little. After being in the water for
some time Walter said that he was

that if he got in where it was too
deep that he would be unable to help
him out as he could not swim very
much. Walter ventured, and as he
reached a place about eight feet
deep. suddenly began to pound the
water with the palm of his hand.
Bob knew there was something
wrong and he called for help. Be-

MACHINE GUN
HELPS GERMANY
American Maxim Taking Place
of Rifle

The present war has developed q
number of new methods of destruc-
ton. among them being the submar-
inc, the air ships. and machine guns.
The latter is perhaps the most de-
structive of all. A United Press
correspondent. writing from London,
claims that the German Kaiser fore
saw their Importance twenty years
ago. and began their manufacture.
The correspondent says:
London, July 30.-Bp mail. How
Emperor Wilhelm foresaw twenty
years ago the possibilities of the
Maxim gun. now SO prominent in wal
reports, and ordered vast quantities
of this death-deallng weapon, was
told here today for the first time by
Sir Hiram Maxim, the aged Ameri-
can inventor.
Today the German army has APP
proximately Sc. 900 of these machine
guns and the British government and
other governments are making them
as fast as they can, all of which
proves that the day of the single shot
rifle is past in modern warfare, says
Sir Hiram.
Sir Hiram first begun work on the
automatic gun in 1881, when he was
chief engineer and electrician of the
United States Lighting Company OF
New York. He later exhibited his
invention before officials in France
and England and after a more per-
feet machine had been made he took
iu to Germany where the kaiser was
the first TO recognize It's value,
In his statement, Sir Hiram says:
In the war between Russia and
Japan. two-thirdsu of all the casualties
among the japanese were caused by
Maxim guns and in the present war
the most important arm is without
doubt the automatic machine gun,
firing rifle cartridges. 1t is fast sup
planting the hand rifle.
1T is with this weapon that a thin
line of Germans, stretching across the
continent, is able to hold back the
French and English while vast hordes
of the kalser's men are driving back
the Russians on the eastern frontier.
