$4,000 she sued for.
Marshall Field & Co. is accused of
running the reputation of Leonta
through its welfare department
when it began shopping into her
habits.
A bill in the circuit court says that
until March 8, 1916, Leonta was
known as a respectable, virtuous
girl. About this time, Mrs. G. H.
bonneville, who runs the welfare
questioning system at Fields, called
her to the Office where clerks are
cross-examined.
Leonta was asked hundreds of
things about her actions, habits and
home life. Mrs. bonneville seemed
to be investigating a "tip" that Leon
ia was not a straight girl She did
not get much satisfaction, however,
and let her go back to the toilet ar
ticle counter.
But the quiz was not over. When
Marshall Field & Co. gets a tip"
about one of it's girls it runs the
story to the bottom.

Leonta and their answers, generally,
were in her favor.
Marshall Fields then stopped the
investigation. But its results went
marching on, for Leonta's friends
and acquaintance who had been
quizzed about her moral habits be-
gan talking about her, and soon the
girls name was being banded from
one tongue to another and the words
immoral" vulgar" and scandal
Gus" were passed.
Many of her best friends and
worst enemies heard that Fields was
looking up LeOnta's character and
that it was being questioned"
On April Leonta says she was
forced to quit her job because of the
gOssips. Everywhere she went in the
store eyes seemed to follow her and
tongues seemed to wag. She could
stand it no longer, so she quit.
Her only chance to get even with
the store was to sue it. This she did,
naming, besides the firm, D. M.
Yates, it's manager; J. J. Tracey,
buyer in the toilet article depart

Establishing" Business Firms.

One of the features of modern warfare that
will interest folks who think that battles are car
ried on exclusively with lethal agencies is the
blacklisting Of enemy business, wherever it may
be found. This means of sitting the life of an
opponent is as legitimate, perhaps, as dropping
bombs on peaceful villages, blowing up merchant
men, or asphyxiating trench defenders but ii sug-
gests refinement of war to which the world is
not yet quite accustomed. Great Britain is in a
commanding position for the practice Of this
sort Of offensive movement, because Of its wide
spread domination Of the markets Of the world,
and appears to be determined to enforce the ad-
vantage to the utmost. Victims Of this interna-
tional boycott will have to submit with whatever
grace they may summon to support them, but
may feel sure that persistence in the practice will
result eventually in the arraya of such interests
as may bring about readjustment by which neu-
trails may do business without consulting Britain

Preparedness. 1d.. Make. Advance.

The decision Of Leland Stanford university
to include military training among the require
ments Of education at that school shows how
the thought OF getting ready for national de-
Tense Is making Roadway. Dr.. David Starr Jor-
dan, president emeritus Of this university Is one
Of the leaders Of the movement against mill
tarism. The action of the university authorities,
therefore may be interpreted as acceptance Of
the fact that readiness does not include the in
tention to make war. Every recent experience
Of the United States has shown how sadly our
country situated as regards this most vital ele
ment Of national life. Even the National Guard,
on which reliance was placed for the first line
Of defense, has been exposed in its weakness.
Necessity for training for military service is
much better understood now than few months
ago. and will be more generally adopted. Train
ing at school Is one alternative to universal serv-
ice. II may not prove entirely sufficient to meet
requirements but it is in the right direction.
Our national neglect is being partly compen-
stated for by volunteer movement, and public
interest isstrengthened as knowledge Of national
needs becomes more general. The thought Of
training to serve the nation as soldier is not
so repugnant a. it was short time back.

its contents suggesting plan for settlement.
The Mexican de facto authorities announce that
the compact between them and the United States,

admission that the note received here is similar
but not identical in its terms with that given out
