There is just one thing created by
God more beautiful than the human
body. , It is the human body in mo-
ton.
There is at present a ridiculous
convention that insists on clothes
when the idea calls for no clothes.
I refer to the aesthetic dance.
It is impossible to present Complex
movement and aesthetic ideas while
the body is encountered by clothing.
A decade ago barefoot dancing and
filmy costumes were looked on by
press and pulpit with horror. Today
only the prude is shocked at such a
dance when properly rendered.
p A decade hence and the flmy cos
tune. meager as it is, will vanish as
far as the canons of art will permit.
Why does the average American
now look upon a nude canvas or
statue in repose and express his ad-
miration? Because America is be-
coming educated along artistic lines.
The average American is not the pos
SCISSOR of a filthy mind, therefore he
can view such sights and admire.
But that same figure in motion
would shock him. Why is that?
The American is becoming edu-
Gated in regard to art, but his edu-
cation is not yet complete. He has
vet to learn that the undraped hui
man figure in motion is equaIled in
beauty by nothing.

 0F PARLIAMENT
Republican A. P. Leased Wire1

LONDON, Oct. 9.-The British par liament will reassemble tomorrow for the autumn session, which will deal almost entirely with matters pertain ing to the war, there being virtually no legislative program.
 Premier Asquith is expected to make general talk on all matters and thereupon review the war situation and the nations ability to bear the financial strain of the war Reform of admin istration pensions for the army and navy and the question of man power in the field are two matters likely to oc- cupy parliamentary deliberations, while the government may expect severe criticism on the question of the food supply and prices.
 In addition the independent attitude threatened by the Irish party toward the government is calculated to give the ministers some trouble through the possibility that the members of this party will unite with the smaller groups which are critical of the govern ments administration in war matters
 It is not believed that the govern ment will yield to the agitation fol conscription in Ireland which is only | possible by the introduction of a special | bill entailing prolonged and acri- mOniouS debates.

 CHICAGO, oct. 9.-Today Charles E. Hughes was invited by Senator Thomas J. Walsh, manager of west ern democratic headquarters to speak upon the situation caused by the re- newed activity of German submarines.
 President Wilson can be trusted to handle this situation as he has hand led all other problems put before him satisfactorily, said Senator Walsh. But it gives MT. Hughes a chance to say what he would do if he were president today instead of waiting to see what President Wilson does, and then criticise it.''
 In the course of Mir Hughes speech, a strong-lunged man in the balcony shouted: What about the Danbury matters case?"
 MT. Hughes promised to answer the question, and in a few minutes made his reply. He reviewed the history of the litigation, saying that it was a suit ] brought by manufacturer for treble damages for injury done his business | by a boycott ordered by union labor l leaders. The first step, Mr. Hughes said, was to determine if the manufac- turer had ground for bringing suit. And that question reached the su- preme court" MT. Hughes said, "and l was decided in the affirmative before l became member of the court
 "The case then went to the lower court,' the nominee continued "foi a jury trial. and the jury decided tha the manufacturer had been damaged and was entitled to recover The cas' was appealed to the supreme court, MT Hughes continued, and the point to b, decided by the high tribunal wa whether the trial judge had erred il his rulings of law and in presenting the case to the jury. The court unan imously decided that the trial judg had not erred
 And that means that I concurred il the decision" he said. Now l stan here to say that whether as a judge, ol : if l am elected as president, on an . question coming before me l will en force the law of the land. It make } no difference whether the question raised by labor or capital. If the law are not right, the remedy is to chang ) them. It is the business of judges [ 3 enforce the laws as they are. And
 is often the business of presidents ? enforce the laws"

LONG BRANCH, N. J., Oct. 9.-Sec- retary Lansing, it was announced to- night, will come here tomorrow for a conference with President Wilson con- corning German submarine raids off the American coast Mir. Lansing is eX- pected to remain over night at the president & summer residence.
 The announcement that the secretary of state would confer with the presi- dent confired the impression gained here earlier in the day that the Amer ican government considerd the attacks on vessels off the American coast by a German submarine as fraught with grave possibilities. At the same time it was made clear that there is nothing in the reports so far received to show that international law or the earlier promises of Germany have been viO- lated. Concern over the situation cen
 tered chiefly about the possibility Of what might happen if the submarine attacks are continued.
 The position of the American govern
 ment and its determination to make a
 full investigation before acting was
 made clear in the following statement
 given by the president: The govern
 ment will, of course, first inform itsel1
 as to all the facts that there may be
 no doubt or mistake as far as they
 are concerned. The country may res assured that the German governmen will be held to the complete fulfillmen of it's promises to the government O. the United States. I have no righ to question now it's willingness to full fill them"
 Count von BernstOrff, the German ambassador. who came here today t, give the president a personal lette from the German emperor on "POlisl relief" discussed with President Wilson the new activities of the German sub marines. It was understood that tn, president made it clear that while tn l American government had no intention of interfering with the legitimate activ l its of the subamrine, it would insis on the strict observance of the pledge given previously by the German gov ] ernment.
 1 The ambassador, while expressing al
