 "On every hand one sees today un- derdeycloped, painted, anemic, over sophisticated girls, half clothed, dane ing rsQuc dances, and carrying cig- arctic cases, and even fasis."
 Who says so? Gene Slratton- Por- ter, the famous author of "Frockes" and "rhe Girl of the l.imberlost " In the January McCalrs she issued a warning to the mothers of America against jazz and laNity of discipline.
 Everywhere Mrs. Stratton Porter sees daughters impcrilcd and the home disintcgrating. She declares.

LOWER WAGES
 CREATE CRIMES
Thus Think Governors Of English
 Prisons

London, Dec. 13.-Lower wages and a craze for luxurious living are held accountable by English prison | governors for many preSent-day crimes in a-report made by them to the Home Office.
 | Although crime has dwindled con siderably during the past 20 years the number of prisoners for the year than in the previous year. The report, however, states that 'so small an in crease in a year in which there has been much unemployment and indus trial unrest is noteworthy"
 The governor of Durham prison says:
 "A new stamp of offender has sprung into existence. Men and wom- en Of respectable antecedents and percentage, in regular employment and in no respects associated with the criminal class, are taking to serious crime with astounding facility"
 The suggestion that a spirit of law lessness acquired by men while on military service is responsible for this is rejected by the governor, on the ground that women in equal propor- tion 10 men are the offenders. His ex- planation is that high wages, once easily earned and more easily spent. are now not obtainable.
 Men and women, boys and girls" his report states, "have all got used 10 big money, out of all proportion to the slight effort necessary to ob- tain it." and he continues: "rhe economic readiustment of the past year has created a number of discon- tented, reckless people, who do not realize that they have been living in an artificial wage market, and un- consciously resent the changed con ditions of supply and demand, work and play Money they must have to provide the luXuries and amusements to which they have grown accustomed so they steal, pifer and loaf"
 The governor of Shrewsbury pris- on calls attention to the prevalence of theits on railways and elsewhere, often by men with excellent long service records, and receiving high wages.
 A big increase in automobile thefts is mentioned by the governor of Wandsworth prison.
 It is proposed shortly to introduce recreation classes in male convict prisons and make ii possible for con victs to earn by good conduct and in dustry, the privilege of classes for reading, recitations, lectures and mu- sic.

CURTAILAIENT OF PRODUCTION
SHOWING EFFECT IN FIELDS

Ardmore oil men who have recently

ton from wells Is not large, and
the cost Of operation exceeds the in
come with market quotations as they
are at the present time The fields
Of Pennsylvania, states one man, are
at u standstill, but the Pennsylvania
operators are rather optimistic about
when the market rights itself, oil
will leap in price higher than il ever
was.
The total daily production Of the
Mid-continent field during the past
week shows q decrease of 1900 bar
rels in comparison with the produc-
ton OF the preceding week.
Operations in the local fields are
confined to the deepening Of produc'
ing wells and drilling which is be-
ing done under contracts existent pre-
vious to the issuance of the shutdown
order of the corporation commission
The greatest activity in drilling wells
prevails in the Hewitt southeast ex'
tension and in section 81. 4s-2w, ir
the vicinity Of the Herbert well.
