y little group of men and women
sat around a dinner table in a refined
metropolitan home.
Four men and four women, all trav-
elers, readers and thinkers, and the
arts, the professions, finance and So
clal experience and qualities were all
represented in the coterie.
They were discussing the eVer-old
and always new subject of the rela-
tions of the sexes in domestic and So
cial life, and the growing frequency of
divorce in America. 1t seemed to the
majority that civilized society was de-
generating, but another recalled the
Roman period, where women fire.
quently married ten husbands, and
cited the case of one who, according
10 reliable history, married her twen-
ty-third husband, he himself having
possessed twenty-one wives.
Then the discussion drifted to the
tragedies Which befall young girls. The
recent suicide of one girl who had been
pursued by a married man in whose
office she was an employe brought
other similar and sadly true stories
to light, until the reputation of man,
the master, seemed to be torn into
shreds.
Whereupon one man said:
You women have not the slightest

In every American city and in many
small towns hundreds of girls in their
teens are allowed absolute license by
their parents from the time they are
old enough to play in the streets and
attend public schools until their minds
are bold and their ideas of life mer-
cenary.
These little girls, with short skirts
and hanging hair, frequent the streets
at will, lettering on their way from
school and shop and factory, and with
deliberate intention pursue men who
possess automobiles, or who sit in
club windows.

California Engineers Said to Have Report on Situation Efecting the Water Situa- ton of San Diego.

SAN DIEGO, Feb. 2.-Engineers Hawley and Whitney of the Califor- mia Railroad Commission returned from inspection of the site of the Low CT Otay Reservoir. Pending reporting it is stated neither will make any statement City officials will decide upon tax levy to cover the cost of repairing flood damage. It will be made as soon as the various depart ments report the amount needed. The heaviest burden will fall on the water, street and sewer departments.
 Officials are giving the water situa- tion in Coronado serious considera- tion. At present San Diego is fur nishing Coronado water The city manager has recommended that Coro- nado be required to rely upon its own resources for water until a pipe line be constructed from the upper Otay Dam and connected with the Coronado main. It is suggested that Coronado pump water from the Tia Juana River.
 Water ceased flowing over Morena Dam, remaining in a great reservoir in the San Diego Water System. It is thought there is no further danger of the dam breaking.
