THE FUR CRAZE

BY H. Arlington Bruce
~ ERsONAL observation leads me to fear that
- we are to witness through the coming
months revival of the fur craze of the past
two sumers.
Why any young woman-or any older and pre-
sumably wiser one-should wear furs in the sum-
is beyond my understanding.
Vanity we may assume must have something
to do with it, But surely, with world at war, no
right thinking woman would wish to lay herself
open to a charge of being light-mindedly vain.
And l can assure the women who parade in sum-
furs that they need not feel aggrieved If peo-
pie regard them as being ALPHABETICALLY out of
tune with the earnestness and seriousness of the
times.
Overalls would be far more becoming to them
in these grave days At all events gloriousness of
attire is of the last things they should be think
ing about
For reasons of personal health too furs ought
to be kept in storage until cold weather returns to
justify their being worn.
Furrers, eager to keep business booming. have
been at some pains, it appears, to design special
furs for sumner year. Thus we read
American furriers have been making new COM
binations whereby furs have been blended with
summary materials ranging from chiffon to lace,
that apparel has been provided neither very
heavy vedy bulky in weight appearance"
Likewise this pleasing information is given US:
"Capes and scarfs that designed to be
draped loosely the shoulders do not have
clasp at the neck at ALL
Some of these scarfs contain considerable fur,
but are not so placed cling about the shoulders
they would be were protection from cold de-
sirable."
None the less, it stands to reason that when
not a breath of air is stirring, when the is
beating down relentessly and when the thermom-
is soaring toward the hundred mark, the effect
of furs draped over neck and shoulders hardly
be hygienic.
The excessive chat of American summers
is enervating enough without aggravating its evils
by wearing furs, however light And it is absurd
for those who furs in sumner to pretend that
they do not feel them
The mere fact that they know they are wear
ing furs will of itself increase their consciousness
of the unpleasant force of the rays of the summer
Let them abandon their furry adornments and
only light, loose clothing. Quickly they will
notice change for the better in the state of their
feelings.
Also they will be freeing themselves from real
risk of unduly weakening their systems in such a
way to invite nervous other ailments, par
ticularIy maladies of throat lungs.
In fine, there is not good reason for the
wearing of furs in sumner. There is more than
good for not wearing them.

Seven Hundred Thousand.

What happier comment the latest U-boat
threat could there be than Secretary Bakers
nouncement that more than seven hundred thou
sand American soldiers have crossed the for
France? Achieved it in spite of all that
German submarines could do, this record is cheer
ing indeed for the future What the enemy has
failed to accomplish in European waters with his
supporting bases close by, he will scarcely be able
to do on this side of the Atlantic three thou
sand miles from home. This is not to imply that
the submarine danger is over; it will not be over
until the war is We cannot be too devoutly
thankful for the security of transports in the
past, or too solicitous in the seasons ahead.
But the heartening probability is that trans-At-
Iantic shipping will become continually safer and
more efficient. This is to be expected because
merchant marine is growing steadily and rapidly;
because our navy also is expanding particularly
in patrol boats and destroyers; because experience
is constantly perfecting our methods of meeting
the enemys underseas warfare; and because
U-boats are being destroyed faster than ever be-
fore, faster indeed than Germany can replace
them. Renewed spurts of submarine success are
to be expected; : ut barring some unforeseeabIe
and altogether unlikely invention by the Huns the
next six months should be less dangerous for
ocean traffic than the last six.
1t is prediced that by the end of the year
the number of American soldiers "over there"
will be approaching if not beyond, the two million
mark; and this seems entirely reasonable when we
reflect that some two hundred and fifty thousand
went safely over in May Certainly there will be
no hanging back because of wild gestures of Ger,
frightfulness this side; that will serve
merely to steel American determination

SPINGAR

Through the valley of Kashmir flow the clear
waters of the Jhetum river. Up this river on some
sunny day in early summer small fleet of barges
may be swiftly gliding. Boats on all sides
make way, and word goes round that Maharajah
travels to his summer palace at Sringar AS the
barges sweep on, peaked minarets and gilded
domes appear and the crowd the banks becomes
every minute thicker and more noisy. The royal
feet slips under an arched wooden bridge into the
quaint, careless, swarming city.
On each side of the river back of the excited
mass of humanity rise houses and shops top heavy
with projecting sto.ies, and decked with gay flow
ers planted on roof and balcony. From lattced
windows turbaned shopkeepeTs and mothers hold
ing up wfde-eyed babies peer down the pageant
Here and there canals branch off to some hidden
destination. In the background everywhere are
the mountains, white even when the city is steeped
in heat
At last the boatmen dexterousy guide their
royal passenger up to broad stairway leading
down to the waters edge. He is escorted grandly
up to his palace door and vanshes, and Sringar re-
turns lazily to the business of selling shaws and
mosaics washing clothes in the river

The LoGfer Dnd the LGU.

Numbers of states have adopted, or are planning
to adopt special legislation to aid in enforcing the
patriotic principle of work fight. Maryland led
the way with full-toothed statute which has been
biting all manner of loafers, rich and poor alike
with most wholesome effect. New York state fol-
lowed suit with a law requiring all able-bodied
men from eighteen to fifty years of age Ito be en-
gagged habitually and regularly in some lawful
useful and recognized business, profession, occupa
ton trade or employment until the termination
of the war" Several measures of this sort already
have been proposed in Georgia and many will be
introduced no doubt, at the forthcoming session of
the General Assembly.
Certainly no State has greater reason to force
idlers work than Georgia has. It's essential in
dustries are in urgent need of labor and its grow
ing crops all of which bear more or less directly
upon war needs, cannot be brought to harvest
less the shortage of farm hands is relieved. If it
were solely matter of protecting business and ag
riculture, there still would be ample warrant for
drastic action against loafing. But much more
than material prosperity is involved; the supreme
issues that hang upon the winning of the war are
involved. Every avilable ounce of man-power is
needed in our fields and factories and other prov
inces of production in order that the stream of
necessary supplies for every increasing armies
may flow undiminished. Any able-bodied man,
regardless of his age station, Who loafs in this
be treated accordingly If neither self-respect
should be unsparingly under the lash of the law.

OLD ED HOWE ON BUSINESS
By DR.. Frank Crane

Old Ed Howe has done another book little
one that you slip into your coat pocket It's
title is "The Blessings of Business" And it is
some book.
1t is chock full of sound, rugged, plug-tobacco
philosophy. homely and horny. If you are looking
for literature of the Atlantic Monthly, or Bolshe-
Wiki, or Hindu Esoteric, thought or art
studio varieties, pass Here are only plain boil
ed beef and cabbage; mighty wholesome and filling,
but in no wise fancy.
There's good deal left out of Eds makeup, in
the way of poetry and thrills and everything
but what is in him is all honest-to-g goodness ma
terial.
What he strives to say in this volume is that
the business man is the best product that America
has evolved.
Business is food-getting; all religion educa-
tion, art, and politics are secondary to it; for
without life (Which business maintans) we should
need neither literature salvation.
"Of living creatures, business men the
est sane, he says; and while they have ideals, as
the poets have, they also know what the poets do
not how these ideals may easily be made profess
sional and mischievous."
John d. Rockefeller he believes to be the most
useful who has lived because of the
Rockefeller Foundation, which will devote four or
five million dollars year to human betterment as
long world endures.
1t is as snobbish to suppose that character may
not accompany riches as to believe that is to
be despised because he is poor 1.-THE talk that the
greater the the greater the fortune originat
ed with thieves
The statues in public parks and the heads on
postage stamps, he thinks, ought to be of useful
business men and not statesmen, warriors and
poets.
Nearly every who accumulates sur
plus" he insists, Finally accumulates also dispo-
sition to help the weak and the great charitable
institutions of the world due to this.
The only laws of privilege we have in the United
States he claims, laws favorng the poor, and
discriminating against the successful"
1.-The men WIN succeed nearly always force
full and useful characters; they stand well every
where, except in literature"
cit is absurd to say man is born gentleman
he says; "gentilty is requirement, like educa-
ton, or ability to play on musical instrument"
And he does not write as a rich man; he him
self is a worker. He says 81 not rich man;
self is worker. He says: 'I not rich man.
and never will be; I would feel as UNI
comfortable in palace as in a hovel, but am not
a toady Nearly everybody dislikes a particularly
rich and noted man, and confess do. am OF
the opinion that the rich should be threatened suf-
fciently to keep them modest, but have never be-
Iieved they less honest, patriotic, fair, or
useful than l am.

II 10 Supply and Repair Station For
Undersea Boats.
What is submarine base7" Well,
a submarine base is, In word, sup
ply and repair station for undersea
boats. Craft Of this kind are very
elaborate and exceedingly delicate
pieces OF mechanism; they are liable to
need tinkering at frequent intervals.
Hence there must be machine shop
on shore at the service Of the boats
when at intervals they return from
cruises. There must also be a store
house containing all kinds of supplies
and spare parts for the submarines
Most important Of all, there must be
tanks Of fuel Oil.
Usually there Is attached to the base
mother ship''-a good sized steamer,
with machinery aboard for making
emergency repairs. The steamer also
carries dynamos, which may be used
for charging the batteries of the boats
though at sea the charging is accom-
plished by the oil engines that propel
the submarine when on the surface.
When 1t is not practicable to estab-
fish such a shore station the mother
ship" may be utilized temporarily as a
floating base.-Exchange.

HOW TO ENFORCE THE LAW.

They tell me that the prohlbitory
law Is not enforced" says William Jen.
nings Bryan. "My answer is, elect men
VINO Will enforce 1t! Don't you know
that the first thing that the liquor in
terests do Is to name men who will not
enforce the law7 The man who accepts
the nomination from the men interest
ed In liquor must take an oath in ad-
vance that he will violate the oath that
the Constitution requires him to take.
That Is the condition upon which they
give their support
But / have another answer. If YOU
tell me that we will have blind tigers
IL we don't have saloons, answer
that Ii tiger were after my boy, the
binder the tiger. the safer my boy
would be! If the tiger is blind, my boy
must hunt him up; IL the tiger can see,
he can hunt my boy up. If we close
the saloons and they still sell liquor,
they do 1t in the byways and in the al
ieys, and those who sell are criminals:
and those who deal with them do 1t
with shame upon the face.
II we close the saloons and then
elect men who will enforce the law we
are not to blame If, In spite of all we
can do there may be some selling with
out license. We are no more respon-
sible after we have done all we can
than we are for the work of a burglar
who enters house In spite of the fact
that we have law against burglary"
