The Good the Bad, Otherwise and Few Iaconcs By

neglecting, ignoring, denying and in any
other possible way getting out from under
their obligations to home and children, the
men have been little better It is not only
In the matter of "styles" that they are in SO
large measure becoming etfeminate, but in
the matter Of cowardice-which has always
been considered feminine curse; they not
only refuse IN many instances to shoulder the
obligations that are rightfully theirs, but they
are laying the blame for their dereiction on
the shoulders of the woman
The divorce courts show both sides of the
shield; when the man will allege unfaithful-
ness, lncompatibility Of temper, and the
dozen and one reasons which man will cite
as his excuse for firing of a woman. the
woman will display a list of complaints,
which are balancing offset to the charges
of the man. And both ignore the claims of
the unhappy little wights they have brought
into the world, and which, in many cases the
court finds it hard matter to dispose of
with the interest of the child in view.
We hear SO much of the "poor, down-trod-
den Workingman," and of course this includes
his wife, that we look to that phase some
times for the explanation of the conditions;
but we find the working man and his family
are getting a better living now, in the skilled
trades, than he ever did, but the trouble is,
he wants to keep up with the procession of
the 'big rich" and his wife has ambitions
along the same lines
Our unrestricted immigration for so many
years, is the basis for this change in Ameri-
can customs and mode of living. Given the
wage OF skilled mechanic the second gen
GRAFTON develops the vices of the skilled
spender Excitement, dress, elaborate eating
(Which has resulted in the canned goods in
dustry being one of the best dividend get
ters), and the woman who cooks three meals
day IS becoming rarity while the man
who considers it his duty to provide a real
home for the family, is growing as scarce.
The women want the things the men have,
and they call it equal rights" when it really
means, at the last analysis, the right to ig-
more the things that are to be done And the
man IS growing as vain, and as silly, as the
woman.
So-the mannish woman and the woman
ish man are here, and the question is: What
are we going to do about them?
We see the result, in the children who are
truants, who are the main causes for the APP
pointment of delinquency courts" domestic
relations courts, and who know nothing of the
real meaning of the word home.
Dogs suffer as result of war, walls a
humanitarian journal, and one wonders if it
means as sausage, or just plain dogs.
New York is trying to have adopted child
welfare law, and it is aimed mainly at keep
ing mother on the job Of mothering.
Carranza, Villa & Co., of Mexico, evidently
regard that Notwithstanding" attitude of
Uncle Sam as a species Of scare-crow.
Statistics say the State of Main consumes
less grain than any other; maybe the Stats
tician didn't take the census of the grain in

With Americans aboard German ship
that an English warship tried to blow up it
looks like some little complication, doesn't it?
More advice to the farmer (this time from
a Yankee) says for HIM to raise snahes a
lot of them do, IN prohibition territory in the
South
Plea of forty-one railroads to increase their
freight rates will probably result in the in
crease being given but the plea of forty thou
sand voters Will not over taxes.
Millionaires and preachers seem to divide
the honors when it comes to marrying; one
OF the former has record of SIX wives, and
the latter, four
A Wisconsin newspaper says: "Prospects
not very bright for Governors bills" and
many a father will say "Same here" when
he thinks Of Easter hat season.
Battle on the Suez Canal, we are told. It
IS to be hoped the sides Of the canal are not
OF the same sliding quality our Panama is,
or the results will be disastrous to both bel

It's wonder some smart storekeeper in the
votes for-women States doesn't get onto the
plan OF giving away the ballot with every
bundle Of dry goods; it would be a cinch for
the candidate he was supporting.
The North Carolnian with thirst will be
permitted to quench it, by law, with SIX gal
Ions OF Ticker" year, and one hundred and
twenty gallons of beer-and it is to be hoped
he won't mix 'em.
A Yankee newspaper asks: should a poor
man enter politics. Of course. this is asked
from the basis of the pocketboolz variety of
poverty, but 1t would be more interesting to
learn the answer, based on the brain wealth
Just when we are beginning to be worried
over the matter of something to-eat, along
comes good little genius-any way, if you
are worried about the first course for your
next dinner, get hep to 'orange soup" which
has just made its appearance on the menus.
A mercantile journal assures we are ex-
porting pig iron to Italy That's good for
the people who have the pig iron, and it would
be well to export at the same time a few of
the Italian gentry who have been keeping the
police courts so busy, and the hangman on the
job.
Our tight-waddy Secretary of State
thrlftly tried to get permit to deliver his
speech IN a public park in Chicago, and the
naive admission was made that ''there was to
be no charge for admission, but fifty cents was
to be paid for seat-and no standing room
would be permitted"

AS the Grand Old Woman of the Drama,
all the palms, prizes and belts go to Sarah
Bernhardt; in the face of being manned for
life, by the amputation of her right leg, she
still declares, at the age of seventy, that she
is anxious for the ordeal to be over-so that
she can get back to work

The death of the aged Mrs. John D. Rookie
Teller, with both her husband and her son
absent from her bedside, on a pleasure trip
to Florida, makes one realize the true loneli-
ness of the very rich, and there will be little

Edgar Allan Again Captain.

The fall before Edgar Allen grad
uated, 1890. the team again chose him
to be it's captain. Playing quarterback
he was still the brilliant individual per
former, but, weakened in other po-
sitions, and with Yale strengthened, the
game with the Dark Blue was lost by
the Tigers by the biggest score ever made
against Princeton tean132 10 o. Har-
ward was not on the schedule.
KILLED in action, somewhere in Flan-
deFS,' came brief announcement over
the ca bles a short while ago. Simple,
in few words, thus was borne the news
of the end of the adventurous career o.

more Familiarity known. And perhaps
that was Just as johnny would nave

words and without furbishins. Johnny
Poe was, or shall we say is. the most
generally known OF the Poes. HIS
deeds in all corners of the earth his
quaint. modest attitude in everything
concerning himself; his splendid intel
iect: his desire to be I'm action Z; his
rowing, adventurous temperament, all
combined to make him n Knight err
rant of the twentieth century There
was only one trouble with Johnny-he
was born thousand years too late.
In 1890 Johnny Poe entered the
Princeton Pbepa ratory School and
played halsback on the varsity scrub
eleven. In 1891 he was found IN the
backfeld in a number of games, and
during the entire contest with Yale.
In 1892 Johnny was one of the stars
of the team, playing in every game
but one.
Praised as Player.
An article in recent issue of the
Princeton Alumni Weekly had this to
say of Johnny's capabilities on the foot
ball field: there was no ques-
ton about his making the varsity the
minute he got into college. For two
years thereafter he played in nearly
every game. sometimes at quarterback,
sometimes at fullback, but more often
at nalfback. He was famous ~for his
end runs, his dives through the line
and his remarkable defensive playing

been at Princeton. He was the en-

! the finest tribute TO Princeton and its
teachings on the athletic field is an
excerpt from another letter written
by HIM from a mining camp in Nevada:
