BURLES0UE. - Burlesque shows
are not what they. used to be. Some
years ago there was many a rank
joke and many a raw scene in the
average burlesque performance. But
it seems that managers Of burlesque
houses got wise to the fact that folks
don't care especially for r9wness or
Fankness. They prefer, instead,
clean jokes and gOOd-looking girls,
with neat but not gaudy legs. Also
good music and pretty scenery.
In the average burlesque, play
nowadays you get all of these. A lot
of sO-called buZlesqUe is better than
some Of the musical comedies. Some
actors who are really funny or else
have really good voices get better
pay in a burlesque act-so why Jump
into the two-dolIars-a-seat plays?
For one dollar you can see a play
that is called buTlesQue, but that
lines up as a good bill and classes
right up with much more expensive
shows.
Probably the only objection the av-
GRACE man has to a bUrlesque show is
that there are too many legs flashing
around at the same time. And man
only has two eyes, But this is a great
life, and with everybody happy, sing
ing pretty songs and pulling good,
clean jokes, what are the odds

WOMEN!-DaTn women, anyhow!
We always swore we'd never have
one in the Office when we got to run
ming a newspaper.
It used to get our goat when we'd
have to interrupt our thrilling ac-
count of the runaway on Main street
to help the cooking expert move her
desk.
It used to make us peevish to have
to take society notes ever the phone
in the society editors absence.
e, It used to drive us wild when the
office cashier would smile as she
handed out our Thursday night lad
vance on salary"
We swOre then, and for years to
come. that we'd never employ any
body that didn't smoke pipe.
Oh, Welt
The younger members of the staff
may feel as we used to feel.
But we've nOClceQ IndL Wnen we
begin to stew because we can't think
Of the name Of the Swiss ambassa-
dor in London, the heart-throb lady
reminds us that the Office possesses
a Statesman's Yearbook.
We've noticed that the sweet
young thing just out Of high school
knows the names Of people in this
town a bit better than does the police
reporter.
We've noticed that the fashion
critic knows more about baseball
than we do about tUcks and cores.
We regret to say that we've noticed
that this column hasn't as many
readers as Confessions of a Wife,
So we haven't kept our promise.
Darn women, anyhow!

French CANADIANS
PUZZLE OFFICIALS
Are Bitterly Opposed to Con-
scriptiOn and May Arm
to Resist 1t

Ottawa, Canada, Aug. "a. = The
French Canadian is the unsolved riddle
of the Dominions. To the British colon
list the attitude of the French Canadian
during the war has been inexplicable.
The mass of the French Canadians are
opposed to conscription. So bitterly are
they opposed to it that threats of armed
and organized resistance have been
freel y made by street speakers in Mon
treal.
The Nationalists element in French
Canadian politics, led by Henri Bouras-
sa, the brilliant publicist and editor of
LIE Devoir, Montreal daily, not only
oppose conscription but firmly advocate
policy of che withdrawal of Canada
fro mcontinued active participation in
the war as fighting force. They dream
of day when a French republic will
arise on the shores OF the St. Lawrence
within whose borders the civilization
and ideals of the French Canadian may
be logically developed.
The French Canadian has had no ac-
tive connection with France for over
$50 years. He points out that his asso-
citation with the mother country then is
about as close as the connection be-
tween New England and Great Britain
When France broke with the Vatican
the Republic shattered its last lave
connection with the strongly Catholic
inhabitants of Quebec. Likewise he has
no blood relationship with Great Brit
ain. The call Of motherland, that
brought thousands of boys with British
blood in their veins, thrilling to the
recruiting stands, lett him cold.
He is primarily Canadian of Que
bee. His interests are first with his
province. Living intensively he does not
recognize or acknowledge the propriety
of any demand upon him for personal
participation in the conflict. "Can-
ada, said Bourassi, "has already made
a military display in men and money
proportionately superior to that of any
nation engaged in the war;"
San increase in our war expense will
spell national bankruptcy and threaten
the economic life of the nation and
eventually Its independence. Conscrip-
tion means strife and disunion in Can
ada. 1t will hurt the cause of the allies
to greater extent that it will help.
"If the United States does as much
as Canada has done in proportion to
our wealth and population, they will
have to raise an army Of 100000
men,"
The French Canadian points out that
the British colonist is not enlisting as
Canadian but as a Britisher. The
French Canadian regards himself as the
only simon nure Canadian
"Conscription, declared Bourassa
recently, may mean second Maxico
north of the 45th and 49th parallels.
