REV. SMALL ADDRESSES
A LARGE AUDIENCE

Rev. Sam Small delivered an
address for the National Anti-Sa-
loon League at the Opera House
Thursday morning to a we'll filled
house. The High School pupils,
about three hundred in number,
came in a body with their teach
ers and number OF the business
houses had closed to give their
employees an opportunity to
hear this gifted speaker.
Rev. L. A. Cooper introduced
the speaker, who then held the
audience in close attention for
about As minutes, interspersing
his statements of facts and stats
tics with remarks of lighter
vein. While the address was
pleasing in the main and fully ap-
proved by the audience, it was
disappointing in SO far that the
speaker failed to allude to the
law to go into effect May lst, and
which most of the audience hoped
to hear explained and amplifed.
AS the prohibition question is
settled in Georgia, in 80 far as
the passage of laws, it was
thought the enforcement Of the
new law would be the main
theme OF the speaker In that re-
spect the address failed entirely.
Mr.. Small is a good speaker and
would no doubt have in
terested and instructed his hear
ers on the enforcement of the new
prohibition act, had it been his
purpose SO to do.

CAPITAL AND ARBITRATION.

In New York two weeks ago the
moneyed classes that most do con-
gregate in the vicinity Of Wall street
and Broadway were insistent upon the
duty of the president and congress to
vindicate the p&jnCiple of arbitration,
whatever might ensue. Since that
hour Of moral elevation a transit
strike has developed on Manhattan
Island and both subways and elevat-
ed lines are affected. These are utili-
ties OF the very first Importance to
public convenience and the orderly
transaction of public and private bust
ness. They are controlled and operat-
ed by Wall street capitalists.
The New York public service COM
mission for the First district has been
attempting to end the strike by arbi-
tration. The men have signified their
willingness. The employers declare
not only that they will not arbitrate,
but that they will, from now on, re-
fuse even to confer with the union
officials.
Here is a measure of the sincerity
Of Wall streets attachment to the
principle of arbitration. New York
finanCiers, as a class, care no more
about arbitration than they do about
transmigration of souls For them it
is a convenient cry-when they hold
the short end of the lever. Those who
deny it then are enemies of the pub
( lie order. But when they conceive
/ themselves TO have an advantage they
have no more use for arbitration than
a bowery bFuiser has for the assault
and-battery statute. Nothing could be
more hypOcritical than Wall streets
attitude on the question two weeks
ago, as seen in the light of the reyela-
lions of today.
All the more need that arbitration
be made obligatory by law in all in
dustrial disputes of Importance, in ac-
cordance with the recommendations of
President Wilson's message. But the
public opinion which will obtain this
reform must come from the conscience
and will of the great mass of plain
/ Americans. 1t will never come out
of Wall street, where the demand for
arbitration is mere pawn In the
game Of getting money and political
power, to be played sometimes as two
weeks ago-fOr all it is worth, and
! sOmetimes-as nOW-thrOwn away
/ without a thought

WHITE COLLAR JOBS.

! Women seem to be taking ND the
/ work of the world. An industrial
census of 5000 employers TO learn con
ditiOns of children in industries has
/ been completed by W. l.. Brodine SUI
| peTintendent of compulsory education
| in Chicago. 1t was made public by
Jacob NJ. Loeb. president of the Chi
/ Cago board of education
The census indicates there are more
girls at work than BOYS. In every
( classification, except that of Office boy.
girls are in the lead. girl can't be
an office boy. Out Of 7O.439 boys and
girls under 81 years old recorded in
the report there were 37,249 girls
working and 1880 boys.
The preponderance OF girls begins
at the age of rs years. The report
dealt with more than half the minors
between IA and Is who are at work.
There were 4475 boys to 3,125 girls.
Between the ages of IS and 19. how
ever. the girls lead with II .56t to II .2O4
boys. There were 1858 girls at work
between the ages of Il and q and
1871 boys
EnumeTators who made the regular
minor population school census made
the industrial census. II shows some
boys more than IA years old work for
$1.50 and 81 a week In general. office
boys and workers between il and Is
were paid from So to 81 a week In a
few instances. they were paid salaries
of So and $40 a week Between is and
Is, the wage scale was from So to
$3.50. There were few exceptions at
$14 and SIS
There were some between the ages
Of Is and q who were working for So a
week. and considerable number
working for $3.50 TO IS. The average
was from so to $12. however, and
some salaries were as high, as $40 a
week.
About $500 of the 5000 employers
consider the public schools as efficient.
There were 364 who did not think the
schools efficient and the rest were non
cOmmittal. The greatest number Of
complaints on poor work came because
OF poor writing, bad spelling and arith-
metic.
The large majority Of more than
thirty-five hundred, whose home con
ditions were investigated, came from
fair homes, Nearly 10 per cent came
from good homes" and less than 90
per cent came from poor and insan-
itary homes"
Too many young men" reads the
report, permit social pride to lead
them to clerical labor or white collar
jobs with small pay, in preference to
overalls or the garb of mechanicians,
in technical or skilled labor that leads
to a higher wages standard. II was
the opinion of many employers that
the average youth scorns to begin at
the bottom and work up.
They have an ambition to begin
at the top, or as near the top as pos
sible, with the result that many swiftly
slide down to the bottom because they
lacked technical knowledge and per
sonal experience in all branches of the
business"

infection is the cause of a severe
anemia resembling pernicious anemia
| Blood examination in such a case, or
in most any case of tapeworm infec-
ton, shows peculiar increase in the
proportion Of of eosinophiles white
corpuscles that take pronounced
red stain.
Efforts at treatment OF tapeworm
without medical supervision are flu
tile and dangerous. Many of the
best tapeworm remedies are more or
less poisonous and must be admins
tered under certain carefully provided
conditions; some of them are capable
OF causing blindness, and are there
fore not safe remedies to experiment
with. No one but the doctor can
determine positively whether or not
the head comes away anyway.
The prevention, as already sug-
gested, is the avoidance of raw or
incompletely cooked beef, pork or
fish. "Measly" meat not rarely gets
into the market "CannibaI sand

army that has invaded starved Mexico
as they are to cheer the men Of a
well-armed fleet that had sunk those
Anticipated Spanish boats in the last
war.
To Wilson would rebound much
praise and his reelection would he re
moved from conjecture. But he has
overcome that propensity for military
glory. He has kept us from war with
Mexico when war was highly pro-
voked and victory a certainty. Com
pare his conduct with what the con-
duct OF Roosevelt would have been If
he had been president.
Remember, mother, Wilson has
strained every effort to keep us at
peace with the world and when ! look
back upon the three years now coming
to a close I can see nothing that Will
son has done which has compromised
the honor of the United States.

all the more for IT,"

Il haven't come to your own enjoy

You can sit all day beside your moth

'If you loved me one-tenth as we'll
as mamma does there would be no

"Oh, / could never compete with a
mothers love! That is not to be ex-
pected. l suppose that's what gives
her right to tell you just what course
to take respecting your husband. Now
that you're going to leave me, her ad-
vice with respect to me will be no
longer necessary, and / wonder what
you and she will talk about when you
nestle down for a morning chin-chin."
She was inclined to think that, the
one interesting topic being removed
the chin-chin would be rather dull but
she did not say so.
There's one thing I propose to do"
continued the provoking husband. "As
soon as you are gone I'm going to
take down these curtains. / have en-
dured them simply for your sake.
They shut out the light"
Indeed, you will do no such thing"
why so? 1t will not matter to you
whether there are curtains here or
not. l shall make a smoking room OF
this, and you have always declared
that when smoke gets into curtains
it's hard to get 1t out"
"A smoking room of this coy apart
ment! Why, l arranged everything

so you did. and a delightful room
you made OF it. I remember when /
