JOY it very much. She listened with
rapt attention to the songs, and was

Exception has been taken to the statement set forth in these columns that the saloons themselves by their methods abolished themselves. It Is held that the saloons were abol- ished by the women. But why did the women oppose the saloons par ticularly in the state of Washington instead of in California or in Nome :? All women are not prohibitionists by a darn sight. And we are just as likely to go to one extreme be- holding in the suffrage a panacea for all evils, as seeing the suffrage a relief for none. The work of women and men politically is about a stand off, and in some cases not q very creditable stand off at that
 The fact is that when evils are attacked denounced or opposed iii any way, it is because they become palpably unpleasant to those oppos- ing them. The Seattle saloons had this effect apon men and women
 alike, and bence they were abol- ished. But-it wasn't the vote Of

 Given half a chance the human body will take care of itself without any drugs and without any physi- elan. But when the human boing is redured to an industrial machine, badly cared for and lacking in nutri- otin, in leisure, and working always at high pressure in unfavorabIe surroundings, no physic can prevent its break down, and the daily and yearly creation of consumptive de- relicts.
 It's the system-just another ot the innumerable damnable effects of production for profits.

1 Comment upon the execution ot
 Edith Cavell the English nurse @ho
 was courtmartialled and convicted
 for aiding the escape of enemies is
 certainly frenzied. Without doubt
 it was monstrous procedure, ana
 revealed the utter cruelty of this ut-
 terly cruel war wherein human life
 is as nothing. But respect for the person of woman has not been a characteristic of war at any tice, nor if the truth be told, very much in evidence in peace. Under the economic system many women are driven by want into the brothel, tn. victim of the lustful rapacity of the well to do-are compelled to labor at wholly unsuitable occupations, and to drudge living death where in the labor is often enough the least of the heardships endured. It's only a few years ago since forceful feeding destroyed the con stitutions of active militants in Great Britain, and the London bob bies slugged many suffragette. Even in Chicago it is positively certain that many a fine" mind which very sensitively denounces the Teuton barbarity of Miss Ca wills execution will take no stock in the deliberate cold blooded thug gerry of the police and strong arm men employed to break the garment workers strike when clubbing down women pickets who were struggling for living wage.
 So four fifths of this stuff that is peddled about Miss TCavill is all buncombe-nauseou maudlin insin- cere buncombe. If any real regard is had for women, it will be as pitt less in its criticism of the applica- tion of force to repress the activ- ities of poverty as of the we'll to do Surely the execution of Miss Cavill was barbarous and horrible, but society at that is constantly barbar- ous and horrible in it's treatment ot
 woman. Germany is no exception, nor is any other country.

Weston's cause at disadvantage

PLEASANT OUTING BY
THE WITHLAC0OCHEE

The following party of Ocala and
Birmingham friends, Mrs. Rube Red
ding, Mr.. Hall, Mrs. Hall, Miss Hall
and Mr.. Rayburn, have returned from
a pleasant several days outing on the
banks of the famous Withlacoochee
river. They went out in automobiles
and were joined at the bridge by a
number of friends, who gave them a
royal good time every minute of their
stay. Boating, fishing and picnicking
were pastimes greatly enjoyed by all.
Large trout and Dream were caught
in abundance and fried on the banks
of the river. Mr.. Stokes, the famous
fisherman, and a number of young
men, were the lucky fishermen.
While on their jolly outing they also
took in the Inverness picnic which
was grand success. They were loud
in their praise of the gracious hospi-
tality rendered them during they
stay in Inverness. The dinner was
bountiful and delicious and was serv-
ed to a queens taste by the good
housewives of Inverness and nearby
towns. The speeches made by the
candidates were eloquent and helped
to make the day one long to be re-
membered. Inverness is a thriving lit
tie town in our sister county and has
some stately buildings on the banks
of a lovely lake. The party enjoyed
sightseeing after the picnic and was
much impressed.
