His the Only
Work Unrevoked

When the youthful student deputy
shortly afterward visited his home
town of Lobenste!n the population ac-
corded him a royal reception. The lit
tie houses were bedecked with flags,
the Contemplating peasants shouted
hurrahs ard shook hands with him, the
Poles Of the vicinity kissed the hem Of
his coat, the Ruthenians kneeled in the
dust Of the road. kudlich was the most
feted man in Austria.
Six months later conditions had
changed. The counter-revOlution had
set in.
While practically all the other re-
suits Of the revolutions of 1913 and
ls49 in Germany and Austria were
abrogated during the counter-revolu-
ton OF the early sos Of the last CEN
fury, even Bach and Sehwarzenberg,
the reactionary fanatics who ruled Aus
tria with iron severity, did not dare 70
revoke the kudlich law liberating the
Austrian peasants. The population in
the country districts was in normal
times always the main support Of the
conservative parties on the European
Continent. And any attempt to place
the small farmers again in bondage
would have meant another revolution.
For nearly a quarter Of a century he
was q political refugee, when he was
granted amnesty by the Austrian
crown. In 1872 he visited his old coun-
try. His tour through Austria was a
triumphal procession. He was accorded
the freedom of the City OF Vienna.
But his stay over there was of a short
duration. lie had become American
ICED and did not like the conditions in
the Dual Monarchy, in spite OF certain
racial sympathies.
Kudlich has TO his credit the one
great deed of 1913, and Clio. the God

Liberator of Austrian Serfs
Lived Unknown in Hoboken
By Gustav Muller

history died recently in Ho-
boken, n. j., practically unwept,
unhonored and unsung, at least so far
as the general public and nearly all of
the great metropolitan newspapers were
concerned. But to those who know the
history Of the man who long ago
fought to make the world safe for de-
mocracy, the death of DR.. Hans Kud-
Itch was real cause for sorrow.
Kudlich had to flee Austria at the
age Of twenty-six. For the previous
year he had fought a greater fight
than KossuR. Kossuth, an Hungarian
aristocrat. fought merely for the free
dom of Hungary. Kossuth lost. sought
refuge in the United States and was
highly honored.
Kudlich, the son of a peasant
fought-and shed his blood while
fghting-to free the peasants from
bondage, and won. He, too, had TO
fee to America. But his arrival here,
like his death. was not taken much
notice Of, and his life in Hoboken
where he settled, was the hard and
comparatively proftless life Of a prac-
Using physician. In Europe, espe-
cially in Austria. Kudlich holds the
same place in the hearts of liberty
loving people that John Brown does
in the United States.
At the age Of twenty-five. while a
law student in the University OF
Vienna, he tried to break the chains
which shackled Austria He destroyed
the very foundation of feudalism. And,
his work done, he came 70 our shores

Public Most
Effective Weapon

Commercial amusement places are
always going to exist. Owners Of such
places are not interested in raising
peoples standards. They are in bust
ness for money, 10 make their work
pay. 1t is up to the people of those
cities surrounding the training camps
to see that the owners and managers
Of places Of amusements raise the
standards of the productions. II is just
as much their responsibility TO see
everything offered the men commercial
ly carries the right standards with it
as it is their responsibility TO make an
effort to provide social contacts Of the
right kind for these men. There are
dozen ways Of raising the standard OF
commercial amusements.
"The public is always the most eftec-
tive weapon. Public opinion is efec-
tive, or public supervision In big
cities like New York and Cleveland
the public supervises all amusements.
In smaller towns. where IL would take
time for municipal control to be legis-
lated, it is usually enough for the pre-
prietor of the dance hall or theatre
where cheap shows are billed 20 be
convinced that public opinion Is against
his policy. Once he learns that his
clientele the soldiers, upon whom he
depends for his income) will be dis
couraged and kept from his place Of
business unless he keeps it up to the
standard of wholesomeness demanded
be will willingly comply with public
opinion. His amusements will then be-
come sane and sound. The danger now

Soldier s Emotions
Like Business Mans

She continued:
"The fact is the soldiers emotions
are more elemental than the tired bust
ness mans. If you give him his choice
of amusement there isn't much question
as to whether he will 90 to see George
Bernard Shaw or Queen Maid Burles-
quers.' The trouble lies in the amuse-
ments offered the men; with the stand
ard Of conduct which they receive in
the forms of amusement not super
vised; in the kind Of standards we make
for them by the amusements they get;
the kind we allow them to get.
"The man who is commercially a pur-
veyor of amusements is not a philan-
thropist. He is business man. He is
going to give the people what they
want, not what he wants. He has
studied human nature. He knows the
soldier; he understands the psychology
,of war and men. He is going to book
the kind of a production he knows
they will spend money on. II is not
the kind you or would want our sons
or husbands to attend. 1t is far from
the kind we would want our daughters
to see. And yet these soldiers go to
these productions one night, and the
next attend dances or dinners in the
homes of the town. They bring their
standards of women with them. 1t is
here the great danger lies.

Mrs. Henry Moskowitz. secretary OF
the Mayors Committee of Women and
wife Of New York City's Food Commits
sioner, looked me squarely in the
eye and emphatically stated this fact.
II was an entirely different slant from
any had expected her to take on the
question Of how to remove the moral
dangers that Turk in the vicinity OF
the training camps, where every posi-
BILE effort is being put forth by the
Committee on Training Camp Activi-
ties and by the Y NJ. c. A. to make
these towns wholesome, healthy places
for the girls OF the towns as we'll as
for the soldiers.
For twenty-five years Mrs. Mosko-
WITT has been active in the girl work
Of New York. II was she who con-
ceived the idea Of a Committee on
Amusement Resources for Working
Girls, and it was her own personal
efforts which got the funds for that
committee that accomplished so much
in our city in the years it was active,
Indeed, so successful was the work that
the committee was disbanded because
the work IL had undertaken was com
pleted and with credit. II removed the
dangerous conditions Of dance halls and
other amusement places, which were
then frightful, and did many other
things. Mrs. Moskowitz recognizes the
ungarnished facts Of the girl question
and she faces the conditions that sur
round US squarely and unfinchingly
with determination to meet those con,
Gitions as they must be met, il efec-
tive results are TO be obtained.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you cannot find a
single trace of dandruff or falling hair
and you scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after a
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair-growing all over the

Danderine and carefully draw 1t
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance OF
abundance; an Incompatible luster,
softness and luxuriance.
Get a 20 cent bottle of Knowlton's
