Il the meaning OF the riot OF nudity
into which the world OF woman
hood has plunged SO frantically?
Here I touch a very dangerous sub
ject-Woman- Nearly everybody who
touches her burns his fingers. After
thousands OF years mau knows little
about this battling and elusive crea-
ture. and what he thinks he knows Is
invariably wrong
The war has profoundly disturbed
the feminine mind Many millions OF
young males have been slaughtered,
murilated or deranged- There Is a
herd-soul Of woman moving IN the
mass, has taken flight at the SEN
tence OF celibacy which has been
passed on her. There are not enough
men TO go round. Before the war
the rivalry Of women was acute. To-
day IL IS frenzled. Instinctively the
herd-soul OF woman IS doubling It's
allurements. trebling its wiles, quad
rupling its bats.
It has cast modesty TO the winds.
It has abandoned all its reserves and
reticences. All IS fair in love and
war. and the herd-soul OF woman Is
resorting 10 the most audacious de-
vices in order to captivate and cap
ture the surviving males.
Jazz Dance Is Symptom.
The vogue OF the jazz dance Is one
symptom OF this frenzy. The violent
outbursts OF vehement colors IN femi-
nine raiment IS another. The hysteri-
cal eccentricity OF feminine attire Is
another. But the most alarming
symptom IS the absolutely brazen dis
play OF feminine charms. have al

FIGHT FANS WANTED MURDER
Winner of Bout at Fargo, N. D., Com
PEELED to Knock Out His An
tagonist Twice.

Many old-time fighters are worried
lest the mitt game degenerate into
pink tea and chiffon proposition.
However, a battle was pulled Off In
Fargo, N. D., not long ago, that would
have satisfied the most bloodthirsty.
A fight had been staged between Labe
Safro, a clever welterweight of Mime
apolis, and an unnamed fighter OF
more or less ability.
1t took Safro one round to feel out
his opponent and in the second stanza
he waded in and in short time had
the Unknown at his mercy and cleanly
knocked him out in the second.
Fargo fight fans want their moneys
worth and howled for more. They
wanted more than knock out; they
were anxious for murder. 1t didn't
particularly matter to them which
fighter was killed, they wanted action.
To satisfy the crowd the manage
ment induced the fighters to go back
In the ring. In fact Safro was told he
must continue the fight or there

SWEPT
BY CRIME WAVE

In the midst of the daily and night
ly holdups and the murder wave which
is sweeping Berlin there was one case
which attracted wide attention be-
cause of its horror. 1t was known as
the Falkenhagen Forest murders. The
murderer when he was arrested was
unable to remember all the murders
he had committed or his outrages on
innocent persons. In one instance he
locked his victims in house and set
fire to it, meanwhile shooting into the
house while 1t burned.
The exploits of the Strauss brothers
was another case which attracted wide
attention here. Before the war these
two men were burglars. One Of them
interrupted his criminal career to
fight for Germany. He won the Iron
Cross, but as soon as hostilities ceased
returned home and joined his brother
in the old pursuits. Finally they were
arrested, but one Of them managed
to escape from prison.
Frees Brother From Jail.
He soon returned to the Jail. how
ever, overcame all opposition and re-
leased his brother, with the result
that they went back to the business
of robbery. A nationwide hunt for
them followed. When the police To-
Gated them there was a battle in
which two policemen were killed and
49, ,,o,ndod opd tho Ctro,,ec hroxh

Finally they were arrested In the east
end of Berlin.
Almost daily one hears Of some
body's skull having been smashed "only
a few blocks from where / live" or
that somebody was stunned and rob-

seem powerless to control the situa-
ton.

Athens effectively contradict the as
sumption that Mrs. William B. Leeds,
through her recent marriage to Prince
Christopher, youngest brother Of for
mer King Constantine Of Greece, &C
quired the status of princess OF the

nouncement by the Hellenic govern
ment, in the name Of the crown, that
Prince Christopher, before he married
Mrs. Leeds, was obliged to renounce
his rank as a prince Of the sovereign
house of Greece and his place in the
line of succession to the throne. The
remuneration automatically erased his
name from the official roster OF the
princes and princesses of the royal
house.

only title that the former Mrs. Leeds
may lay claim to. She is not prin-
cess of either Greece or Denmark,
and on her appearance at any mon
archical court would have to be con-
tent with the title of Countess
Gluecksburg.
A Similar Case.
A former instance Of similar renun-
citation occurred when Prince Aage or
Denmark, eldest son Of Prince Wade
mar and Of Princess Marie of France,
married the daughter of Count CalVl
di Bergolo, minister plenipotentlary
of Italy at Copenhagen. He was not
permitted to marry the girl he loved
until he surrendered his royal rank
and right Of succession and had ac-
cepted the rank of ordinary noble
with the title of Count Rosenberg.
Still another case was that or
Prince Frederick Of Schleswig-Hoi-
stein, who fell in love with Miss Mary
Esther Lee of New York and was not
permitted to marry her, as he did IN
1864. until he had definitely renounced
his status and prerogatives as a prince
Of the blood. Still another instance
was that of Duke Henry Borwin or
Mecklenburg- Schwerin, who married
the former Miss Elizabeth Pratt or
Kingston, N. Y, at Dover, England,
in 1911. The marriage was declared
invalid in 1913 by the Supreme Court
of the Grand Duchy because 1t was
held that the duke had evaded ana
violated the laws of his country by
marrying without official sanction.
In all the long list of American
women that have married foreigners
of rank and title, only one, Miss Alice
Heine of New Orleans, ever entered
the royal circle. Her first husband
was Armand, Due de Richelieu, and
after his death she became the con-
sort of Albert, prince of Monaco, q
ruling sovereign in his own right.
