COURT UPHOLDS FREE PRESS.

San Francisco.-Poice Judges sitting
as one court, have dismissed culinary
workers who were charged with violat-
ing the municipal anti-picketing ordi-
nance because they sold newspapers in
which reference was made to unfair
hotels and restaurants. Speaking for
the court Judge Oppenheim said;
I'm deciding this case let it be under
stood that the court is not passing on the
Constitutionalty and validity OF this or
dinancc, and is in no wise attempting to
nullity the act OF the ma ority Of the
people at the initiative election at which
the ordinance was passed. We are simply
deciding this case on questions of fact
and not of law.
The court believes this case should be
dismissed for the reason that there is no
evidence of intimidation, and further
more, because we fell that we cannot
presume that there is any element of
conspiracy present. We cannot so so
far as to say that the paper carried in
the hands of defendants was either a
sign or a banner. There is no evidence
to show that it was not bona tide
newspaper. The court feels that it
would be as dangerous to convict these
men of this ofense as it would be to
convict them of carrying a copy of a
daily newspaper. This court will do
nothing that may be construed as a
violation OF the freedom OF the press
or of SDecCh

MANY GIRLS ARE sWINDLEI
WouId-Be Movie Stars Induced to Pal
With Money on All Kinds
of Promises.

Young girls come to New York by
the scores of hundreds, determined Il
win fame and much money in motion
pictures, says Film Fun. They believe
they can do this.
In most cases they have only little
money and very few friends wiser thai,
themselves. Sooner or later each rel
ceives a card of invitation, signed with
an unfamiliar name, but bearing every
evidence of good taste and sincerity.
1t informs the ambitious one that
the writer has learned she is open fos,
an engagement in the pictures, and III
this is so will she please call. She,
does call and is met with cordialityl
that might arouse suspicion in starr
but which pleases the innocent one.
Very adroitly she is put in possess
sion of the information that she isl
needed in the work, but three or fou:
weeks training is absolutely necessary
to prepare her, even though she may
have acted for years on the stage.
And the charge will be $50.
Usually, If she seems reluctant, an
assistant is called into conference, and
presently special price of $50 Is
agreed to.
If it may be surmised from the con-
versation that larger sum can be OBJ
tanned, the aspirant for stellar roles is
told that stock may be purchased in
the corporation in amounts anywhere
from 500 to $1,000, and an investor
will receive enormous dividends, and
the necessary preparation for screen
success without tuition. A contract
is guaranteed to each investor.
Everybody in filmdom knows of the
existence of the concerns, of which
there are several that vary but little In
their plan of operation. They all carry
regular ads in the daily papers. 1t is
from responses to these advertise
ments that addresses are obtained.
One concern charges an enrolment
fee Of So, dollar each for course of
20 lessons, and confers a diploma when
these have been completed. Then the
new actress is advised to have strip
Of film made, just to show how well
she screens.
The charge for this is only $25. She
is assured this is essential to success
The near-riot that often ensues when
a young woman shows up with her
strip of film and demands the star part
which has been guaranteed her, and
which she believes she has earned
and paid for, would be very funny II
1t were not in many cases so tragic.
This very thing would happen
oftener than it does but for the fact
that studios and managers are safe
guarded against all visitors.

odd Gifts to Red Cross.

Bullion-heavily twisted fringes
made of gold wire-discarded from the
epaulets worn by Rear Admiral David
G. Farragut, are a notable addition to-
the strange articles contributed to the
Red Cross melting pot, says the Wash
lngton Star.
"They were found in a scrapbag
once kept by Mrs. Farragut," says a
memorandum accompanying the dona-
ton, (which with many other relics
of the FarragUt household, were sent
by the trustees Of the estate to ]. B.
Millner of this city. Mr.. Millner was
one of the Hartford's crew, and for
many years has been interested In get
ting together museum collection or
Farragut relics.
A Chinese kimono, valued at at least
$40, is another contribution. The dom
or expects that the Red Cross melting
pot will get more than that out Of this
splendid example of Oriental work

opera glasses, apparently of the period
Of Louis Quinze, Is one Of the decora-
tive features of the melting pot over

Averaoe Man Is Honest.

A banker who, for the first time in
his life, has come into intimate con-
tact with poverty-stricken folk, says:
"The average man wants only half a
chance to be honest. This is thing
worth learning. But it did not require
visits to the slums to find 1t out. A
little thought would have served as
well. The mass Of people is consti-
tuted of average men. The mass has
the power to do whatever it wills to
do. 1t could, If 1t wished rise In the
night and strip the rich bare, and,
since it is the mass that represents
the majority will, 1t could, so far as
law is concerned, go unpublished. But
the average man is honest. The mass
wants nothing of bloodshed and rob.
berry. Those who possess are safe
from those who have nothing. Our
banker friend who visited Poverty Row
used his eyes. His remark shows that,
for most Of his years, he hadn't, on
this particular subject, used his brains.

The Crow Must Be Suppressed.

Now that the world is faced with q
serious shortage Of food, and that the
price Of seed corn is soaring beyond
bounds, it behooves us all to discrim-
mate sharply between those birds that
ere insectivorous and therefore the
friends Of man and his crops, and those
that are graminivorous and hence pc
culiarly inlmical to human interests.
Among the latter family of corvidae,
the crow and his couslns-ravens'
rocks, magpies, jackdaws, etc.-are
adiudged to stand, despite the fact that
their diet is more or less omnivorous.
Their depredations in grain fields
at the time of sowing are, In fact, SO
serious that in France the secretary
of agriculture has issued bulletins to
the various projects, recommending
the destruction of these birds, and Of
fering information to this end.-Scien-

American in French Service
Pays Tribute to FIiers From
England.
REGARD WORK SERIOUSLY
Germans Ahead as Builders, but Brit
cns Are Best FIiers-One Object
Is to Bring Back Information
Required by the Staff.

London.-"There's only one air serv-
ice in this war and it's the British.
If that sounds like a bit of British
swank, why, it merely isn't.
It's the precise statement of the
case which was made the other day
by an American airman who has been
during most of the war attached to
the French air service. He knows all
about the air business, has taught
other men to fly and to fight and has
himself a highly creditable record of
bringing down Hun planes. He knows
all the stars of the French service. and
many of the British.
He'paid high tribute to the German
flying machines, observing repeatedly
that the procession of German inn
provements in planes and engines
moves so swiftly that the allies are
all compelled to hustle constantly to
keep from being outdistanced. When
ever the French and British catch up
with German construction the Germans
produce something new and still bet
ter.
Equally important, he declares, the
British have much the most accurate
notion Of what the flying service is
about. They coordinate it with their
military operations most effectively.
They have less fear of the daily report
of comparative losses on both sides.
They use the aircraft for certain spe-
cific purposes; when the bit of infor-
nation that is wanted is accounted Of
more value than the chance of losing

Grams of the South African war and
were particularly interested while get
ting their stories of that stubborn
fight put up by the Beers to find that
as many of them had fought then
against England as fought under the
Union Jack.
This accidental association of Amer
leans with the South Africans in the
next camp proved. profitable as well as
interesting for the colonials were the
first troops with actual experience in
action in the war with whom our men
came in contact. Naturally they pick
ed up many valuable tips concerning
the essentials Of trench warfare as
well as the tricks of the Huns.
One of the Germans latest tricks
with gas was described by soldier
who spoke from experience. This is
the so-called mustard" gas shell. 1t
is shot from mortar and, exploding
within radius of between % and so
feet from trench, leaves its occu-
pants with lasting impression of the
meaning of shot stuff"
Mustard" Victims Suffer Long.
The fumes penetrate both outer
clothing and underwear almost instan-
taneOusly, though the hot and burning
smart Of the skin that follows is some
what mercifully dulled by the
bunting of the senses that follow
inhalation Of the fumes. Victims of
the mustard bombs are subject to
distressing periods of depression, even
at the time of convalescence. Their
nerves seem to have been shattered
completely beyond control.
Two broad-shouldered Australians Of
giant stature, victims Of mustard"
bombs, were found almost weeping
from inconsistencies, due to their symp-
tomato depression by a fellow coun-
tryman in Trafalgar square, in London
while on leave recently. They were
soon induced to take a more cheerful
view Of matters and explained to their
temporary host at dinner that the feel
ing against which they had been fight
ing was that they didn't have friend
in the world.
{ On the whole the voyages of our
most recently arrived contingents
were comparatively free from subma-
rine attack in the sense Of the actual
firing Of torpedoes, though several
