WHEY do women like to show
w their ankles-plus?
Let's stop thinking about
Russia and Poland and Harding and
Cox, and consider one of the real
cCsmic problems--or two Of Them
since woman Is a biped. They are
easy problems TO consider-some-
times--as masculine readers will be
the first to admit. In short, it is not
for lack Of consideration on the part
of men that a solution is still I'M
found, and that the problems remain,

Never sit with your knees crossed
1t isn't ladylike!" Never did a nice
little girl grow up without hearing
that injunction from her careful
mamma. And still 1t does not take!
When she is old enough TO go to the
Piping Rock Horse Show she falls
instinctively into what may be called
the conventional pose for the news

ground and one pointing toward the
horizon at an angle OF 40 degrees.
And the beautiful women, American
and otherwise, who arrive from Eu-
Tupe-have you ever noticed that they
all arrive feet first, that every ship
board snapshot, even If 1t shows a
yelled face, q head turned away, is
fully equipped as TO ankles and shins?
Even during the wartime wrangles
over the freedom of the seas, the
Kaiser and Won Tirptz knew enough
not to interfere with the freedom Of
the knees Of feminine seagoers.
A cynical friend Of mine suggests
that the press agents OF the trans
atlantic liners are also, as a side
line, doing publicity for hosiery
manufacturers. But If that were
the case, wouldn't the models be
picked more carefully For the real
question on which this article lie
based-I didn't dare put II in the
first paragraphs this:
Why do women like to show their
ankles plus-when the show isn't
worth the price Of admission?

A Sitter Alien Law.

Under the legislation enacted by Con-
gress in the closing days of the SEES
sion for the exclusion and expulsion
of aliens Of anarchist and similar
classes, many of the antiquities Of ex-
isting legislation were removed. and
the way was opened for sterner and
more uniform enforcement of restric-
tions.
One of the most serious difficulties
had been so to define anarchy, and
what constituted membership in an
anarchist association as to make a
clear case against the accused. The
new law furnishes definite ways of es-
tablishing the required proof. II makes
the distribution Of anarchist literature
in itself evidence of guilt. II makes
unlawful the writing, circulating, dis
tributing or printing, or having in pos
session for the purpose Of distribution
any written or printed matter, advo-
eating or teaching any Of these four
things:

Chicago convention, as one VINO was

Thinks Republican Convention Made
No Mistake in Choice.

l.. S. Senator William p Dilling-
ham, who is at his home in Water
bury, expresses his appreciation OF SEN
ator Warren G. Harding, the Republi.
can nominee for president, in the fol-
lowing interview with the Waterbury
Record:
"0f Senator Harding, Senator Dill.
lingham spoke in the warmest terms of
affection and confidence. He looks upon
him as man of unusual ability, of
rugged and incorruptible honesty,
strong and sane in thought, and one
whose unselfshness is such that he
recognizes other men as his political
equals; in other words, man who, if
elected to the high Office OF president,
will re-establish the conditions which
existed under Mckinley when the pres
idtnt was on intimate terms with all
the leaders of the party, when great
constructive measures were formulated
and adopted by united party and be-
came a part OF the great developing in
fluence of the nation both in business
and in social life

OF the Republican party in the last few
years has been the lack OF what may
be termed team work among its lead
ers that there has been too much eyi.
dence on the part of some to subordi-
nate the partys good to their own per.
sonal advancement. To restore its eff
fciency and TO re-establish its infu-
ence, il is absolutely essential that the
man in the White House be in close
touch and sympathy with the heart of
the masses who have placed him there;
that he be a leader with whom all will
be glad to cooperate. In Senator Hard
ing he thinks we have precisely that
man. He was born and reared and has
spent his life in one of the smaller
towns in the state OF Ohio. As an edi.
tor and as citizen he has grown in
public esteem and has come to be recog.

Mr. Agans trips 10 Bennington. Chit

In Franklin county the message vas
conveyed to Mr.. Agan that it was
useless for him TO talk on the prohi.

he could do anything for pRrched
threats, anyway Consequently the
candidate is reported to have talked

than Governor Clement to initiate a
movement looking toward the aboli
ton Of the prohibition amendment.
In Burlington the element which
Mr. Agan expected TO find with him
extended TO him an exceedingly icy
hand. He was frankly told he could
do nothing TO bring back LICENSE and
that a campaign based on such a fraud

Fate OF Sea Cows.

The last Arctic sea cow was seen
in ls54-about a century after the first
discovery of the species by white men.
When full grown the creature weighed
as much as 5000 pounds.
These animals frequented shadows
at the mouths of rivers in herds, and
while feeding they drove before them
their young. to protect the latter from
danger. So tame were they that one
could stroke their backs without any
objection on their part

ate investigation of the constitution

its having in possession for distribu-

above four acts will be sufficient. Also

they may have given money to support
anarchist organizations, were not actu

Under the new law il will no longer
be an easy thing for wealthy support
