you not realize that you are doing her

created for her? Do you not see that
you are cheating Dorothy out Of the

seep herself in things which should
be incidences in, instead OF con-
stituting, ones entire life. She Is liv.
ing on the tinsel and glitter Of life and
for each of those spangled hours she
will have to pay later on.
And so it is. While you fond. doting
parents wrack your tired brains en-
deavoring to scrape together enough
money that Dorothy may "enjoy life"
she is gaily dancing the hours away
and does not even take time to thank
you.
It is to be hoped that Dorothy will
not have to sit out her dances alone

CLAIM LIQUOR IS
FURNISHED SOLDIERS

Drastic action against not only
saloonkeepers who sell intoxicating
liquors to uniformed soldiers. but also
against any civilian caught buying
liquors for the men, will be taken by
officers of the National Guard in this
city Some means are to be devised
also, whereby young girls can be pre-
vented from hanging around recruit
ing tents and corners where guards
men are stationed Both the buying
OF Liquors by civilians for soldiers and
the question of girls have become
serious in this city lately, according
to Information received today at the
Armory of the First Battalion.
Both actions by officials result
from numerous complaints which
have been made to the Offices Of
Major Reed, commanding the guards
men in this city, and Adjutant Cen
eral /. p Wlckersham. The latter
official has no jurisdiction because of
the guardsmen being in the federal
service.
Some Of the complainants have
claimed the soldiers stationed on the
B. & o. bridge have grossly insulted
young women, that at the same place
some Of the soldiers knocked an old
man down and pummelled him and that
girls at other points in the city have
been insulted by guardsmen. It is
also claimed It was learned at the
guard headquarters, that soldiers are
being furnished intoxicating liquors
either by saloon men direct or by
civilians who are taking money from
the soldiers and getting the intoxi-
cants for them.
Officials stated this morning that
there is a ruling that any person who
buys liquor as an accommodation TO
a soldier is as guilty of violating the
war measure forbidding the selling of
liquors to soldiers. as though he were
a saloonkeeper and sold the soldier
liquor over the bar. Efforts are being
made TO catch some OF the men in
this city whom it is claimed are run
ming booze errands' for the sold er
boys.
AS to the complaints about guards
men at the bridge and other places
insulting girls and women. several
men OF the First battalion it is au-
stated have already been
on the carpet and Captain Ellison is
an investigation. In extenu-
alton for some Of the alleged insulting
remarks made by soldiers to girls, il
is claimed at headquarters that Off
GERS in charge Of recruiting tents and
corners around the city have found u
impossible to get rid OF some young
girls who are hero worshippers and
who persist in hanging around the
soldiers until the men themselves be-
come so digusted that they forget |
good manners and say things which 1
they soon regret and which the girls
resent
IL has been suggested that the ar
rest OF half dozen or more girls
and the publication Of their names as I
being loungers around recruiting tents /
might have the effect OF stopping il /
and at the same time stop complaints /
about alleged insults.
