Movement to Saue Girls
(By Associated Press)

(By Associated PreSS)
NEW YORK, JAN, 8-Fifteen thous-
and young women have been "sworn
in" by the New York probation and
protective association to aid in protec-
ting the morals of girls here.
The theory of this girl to girl
movement, it was explained today is
to ''use the subtle sympathy of youth
for YOUTH" to bring about such health
full recreation as shall prevent the ex-
ploitation of leisure time "by CONNER
cial and undesirable interest"
1t is also sought to accomplish the
reform and rehabilitation of unfortun-
ate girls through kindness and what
ever possible without the stigma of
courts or reformatory institutions.
The girls who have enlisted their aid
work for living and have average
conditions to contend with in their
own homes. They are members of the
Girls Service Clubs and the girls pro-
tective leagues.
Mrs. Frank A. Vanderlip, chairman
of the Education committee of the
Girls Protective League has made
plans which include a civic building
as the center of the social life for
each group of $4,000 citizens. Dane,
ing, swimming and Americanization
are to be the features.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-More was

further prosecution of the packers.

There were a few sharp inter

Don't Worry, Be Moderate

NEW YORK. Jan. S-Don't worry
and be moderate in all things if you
want to live to be 70 or more. This
recipe for longevity was given today
by DR.. George L. Mylan. director of
the Columbia university gymnasium
after an investigation of the modes of
life Of those who live long and those
who died prematurely:
There is abundant evidence" says
DR.. Mylan, ito justify the belief that
the average duration of life could be
increased from ten to twenty years
by the general adoption of the prin-
ciple moderation in all things"
Deaths by infectious diseases or VIC
lence are excepted.
The characteristics of people over
70 years old, DR.. Mylan finds, are
that they do not worry, have happy
disposition and eat, drink, exercise
and enjoy themselves moderately.
Exactly the opposite conditions
he says, ARE found almost invariably
in persons between 80 and 70 years
who suffer from organic disease of

English Hangmen Ask
For Increase in Pay
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Jan. 8.-England's public
executioners, the hangmen, want their
pay increased and their claim has
been presently to the House of Com
mons by a member of that body. Au-
gustine Hailwood inquired whether
the government knew it was paying
the executioners no more than in pre-
war days. A government represent
alive replied that the matter would
receive consideration.
The hangmen recently were deprived
of the privilege of taking away the
rope with which the criminal was
hanged. This reduced one of the
sources of their revenue as the rope
could be sold for a good price to
curiosity collectors.

DOROTHY
One of the quaintest and most
whimsical of origins is that which
Dorothy sprang. Thecs and Zeus,
father Of the gods, were identical
terms in ancient Greece. From
Theoc came many masculine names
and one feminine. Theodore, which
signifies gift of god or 'd'.'.e gift
Curiously enough, the reversal OF the
name Dorothy was speedily accom-
plished ad though absolutely incor-
rect, gained more prevalence in the
western world than Theodore has
ever achieved.
The beautiful legend of st. Doro-
thea helped to give her name wide
spread fame. 1t is the story of the
Cappadocian maiden who sent the
roses Of paradise by angelic hands as
testimony of the JOY she was reap1ng.
Dorothea became a patron saint in
Germany and England straightway
adopted her name because of Massin-
gers powerful drama. Dorothy was
the next step in her evolution and
Dolly became a popular diminutive.
Indeed, so common was it in usage
that 1t became the general term for
wooden children or puppets in the
time of Elizabeth Stewart and hence
our own dolly" or doll beloved by
the small girl.
Dorothy became a Puritan name at
the height of the reign of the House
of Hanover, and was used by Mrs.
Dorothy Cromwell, and other Round.

Dorothee, while Germany preferred
the original Dorothea, and Italy omit

Searchers for Buried Silver Are
Sure to Fail.
So Says Galveston Expert of Efforts
to Find Wrecked Bullion
Ship.

Galveston, Tex.-Searchers after
buried silver on the mainland oppo-
site Pete island, Is miles southeast of
Corpus Christi, Tex, probably are
doomed to disappointment, in the opin-
ion of DIR. J.. O. Dyer, Il local writer
on historical and scientific subjects.
The rush of treasure seekers began
with the discovery recently of rs skel-
etons, popularity believed by many to
be those of members of the crew of a
Spanish treasure ship which foun-
dered off the Texas coast early in the
eighteenth century. No record is avail
able of any such wreck.
The "life" Of a skeleton buried in
the sands Of the beaches Of the coastal
country, DR.. Dyer points out, is not
over 40 years.
He also says treasure ships from
Mexico to Spain were discontinued aft
er 1920, partly because of the activi-
ties Of Jean Laffte's fleet of bucca-
neerS.
Even before that time the S~paniards
tried to avoid excessive losses from
storms and Lafite's fleet OF bucca-
neering vessels and so S~paniards
transported less than 20 tons of silver
bullion to the vessel.

or wine," the bulletin says. 1T is in
teresting to note that while the ten
dency up to that time had been from
wine-grape production to table-stock
production, the tendency changed be-
tween 1904 and 1918, and more and
more of the tonnage was used for
wine and unfermented grape juice.
"The requirements of stock for
pressing are so much lower than those
for table stock that a gradual letting
down In the quality Of the pack and
in the efficiency of distribution was
noticeable in New York, Pennsylvania
and Ohio during these years. Michi-
gan, however, built up an extensive
trade for table stock packed in four
quart baskets. AT the present time,
when prohibition legislation has cut
off the old-time wine outlets, that Sec

sition than certain grape producing re-
gions in New York and Ohio.
TN those regions which specialize in
grape culture, certain w~ell-deined
channels of trade have become estab-

localities for vineyardites to sell their
grapes in wagonload lots to local deal
ers, or carlot assemblers at their load
ing stations, at the current market
price. the contract system being very
uncommon. These local dealers load
the cars and sell to carlot receivers in
city markets, who in turn sell to job
bers. Then the fruit passes to the
retail trade and finally reaches the
consumers.

ton occupied by this commodity in the
leading producing sections of New
York, Michigan and Pennsylvania dur
ing the past few years, local dealers
have been able to dispose of practi-
cally all offerings on a f. o. b. basis
by wire orders, SO that consignment
has been the exception rather than
the rule.
cooperative shipping associations
have been found to be most success
full when handling crops of which a
few standard varieties ripen about the
same time. Thus they have proved
of great value in the grape industry
in Michigan and also in the leading
grape-producing sections of New York.
Pennsylvania and the Missouri valley.
The cooperative association takes the
place of the local dealer, the associa-
ton receiving the grapes direct from
the producer on wire orders, to city
carlot receivers. An additional fac
tor, a national distributing agency
sometimes comes between the local
buyer or the cooperative association
and the city carlot receiver"
Relative to the future Of the grape
industry, the I government bulletin
says:
1.-THE production Of ~unfermented
grape juice and of jams and jellies is
utilizing an increasing tonnage each
year and will do much toward using
the surplus left by the cessation OF
wine production. These factories usu-
ally buy their supplies direct from the
producer on advance contracts, agree
ing to pay the current market price
on the day Of delivery. This method
of sale is satisfactory from the stand
point of the producer, and. as the de-
mand for manufactured grape prod
ucts at present exceeds the supply, 1t
is not unreasonable to suppose that in
the not very distant future the annual
production of grapes may not ade-
quately supply the table stock, and the
juice, jam and jelly trade"
