rREApINc DANGEROUS GROUND.

There is no more attractive subject upon which to
write or speak than feminine beauty and at the same
time it is a more dangerous subject than dynamite.
The New York Post is careful enough to quote a
Spanish gentleman at long range. It says:
"a Spanish scholar, impressed by the number of
women engaged in earning their own living, has made
a study of the influence of the various callings and
recreations on women's personal appearance.
Women who indulge in sports will read his find
ings with dismay. He contends that they cannot be-
come professionals without doing irreparable harm to
their beauty: The bicyclist loses in time her grace,
the hockey player becomes mannish, the horseback
rider stout, if not massive, while the tennis player de-
velops flat feet, big hands, and a red, distorted face
It is not the view ordinarily held. 1t departs SO far
from the truth that it is difficult to avoid the feeling
that Castilian ideals of beauty are quite different from
those of other countries.
at is in his remarks on the beauty of actresses,
however, that the Spaniard runs most directly coun-
ter to current opinion. With the courage Of a great
scientist he argues that women do not go on the stage
because they are beautiful; they become beautiful be-
cause they go on the stage. The very desire to please,
the actual necessity of making a good impression, con-
slant association with literature, and sustained alb
sorption in a given role bring out the best there is in
women, and, il ~practiced long enough, make the home
liest beautiful. Only the stanchest adherents Of the
James-Lange theory of emotions, which states that
you are scared because you run and not the reverse,
will accept this without cavil. Impresariois will feel
that it demands more prophetic insight into the po-
tential genius of the coming star than any of their
fraternity have thus far been known to enjoy.
This is an attractive theme the proud Spaniard
has elaborated. And yet the most he has done is to
assail the theory that beauty is only skin deep

DAYS OF NECESSARY ECONOMY.

Just what do you, Mr.. and Mrs. Citizen, conceive
to be your duty, personally, in times like the present
in assisting to cut down taxation or reduce the cost
of the necessaries of lief Are you doing without
things you would like to have but which you could
get along very well without? Are you practicing
economy in your own household or place of business
and thereby setting an example for others7 Even II
It is a trite saying, :" dollar saved Is a dollar earned"
you had better heed it
Then again what are you going to do about eandi-
dates for public office. the men who manage your pub
lie business for you, the men who will say what taxes
you will pay and who will also spend the tax money
you pay into the treasury Are you looking up men
to fill the offices Of mayor and councilman, who might
reasonably be expected to reduce your taxes by care
full expenditures and the reduction Of the outgo?
You and your ~neighbors have annually been vot-
ing into office men to manage your business, good fell
lows, perhaps, but with such woeful lack of concep-
ton of public business as to be downright painful in
results.
Now is a very good time to think over the things
SO far obtained at the tremendous cost to yourself
and ~neighbor. Your tax notice viii indicate your
share. II you think good judgment has been shown
waste no time looking into the qualifications of men
who now desire TO become your servants, for you are
very likely to get another batch of the same kind you
have had. But if you feel concerned for your own
and the city's welfare you had better look the serv-
ant problem over very ~carfully.

1t will be noted that the United States occupied sec
ond place in point of world tonnage in 1920 and this
is the position we must strive for in the future. While
world sailing tonnage decreased during this six-year
period, the United States was the only country to re-
cord a gain and at present II per cent of sailing ton
mage is under American registry. the world sailing
tonnage for 1914 being 3~,6s6,000 compared with 81
12S,000 for 1920; that of the United States increas-
ing from 943, 900 to 1886, 900 tons. In 1914 there
were 1856 petroleum-carrying steamers with an ag-
gregate tonnage of 1,500,000 while at present there
sci engine ships have increased from a tonnage Of
$4,000 in 1914 to 100000 tons in 1920. In 1914,
364 steamers of 100000 gross tons were equipped
for oil fuel, compared with 1886 vessels of IL, SOO,-
portance of oil as feul and the necessity to this ma
ton of an adequate oil supply is thus made apparent.
During the fiscal year 1921 our imports totalled
over S3,650,0 00, 600 in value, of which So, 200, 900, 900,
or about 80 per cent, were water-borne. OF this
amount 59.41 per cent we're freighted in foreign YES
sells Of our $500, 900, 900 of exports for 1921,
S5, 700.0 900, 900 of which were delivered in vessels.
foreign ships handled 60.62 pa1 cent and American
ships 1898 per cent Foreign bottoms therefore
freighted 60 per cent Of our water-borne foreign
trade. Seventy million net tons foreign ships cleared
and entered American ports, compared with S,000,-
600 net tons American. Great Britain alone was paid
for carrying about 5000, 900, 900 worth of our water.
borne traffic, compared with s3,546, 900, 900 carried
by our own boats, and it is Great Britain who is try
ing to destroy our merchant marine.
One great assistance to our shipping position in the
world has been the Jones marine law. To perpetuate
our merchant marine and put our present law into
complete and more useful operation it must be
strengthened. As a supplement to it, the Jones
amendment to the pending tariff bill, proposing a dis
crhminatory rate OF 5 per cent additional on dutiable
and ? Fer cent on free goods coming in in foreign
with Great Britain in the matter Of ship subsidies.
But, in the last analysis, there can be no permanent
merchant marine under Old Glory without the un-
Tagging support of the American people

AMERICAS SEA STANDING.

Lloyd's of London is the great shipping authority
of the world. The latest edition Of the Register for
1921-1922 gives some interesting figures. Exclusive
of Great Lakes vessels. the worlds steam tonnage to-
day totals almost 59, 900, 900 gross tons. This is an
increase Of about 14.o00,00o since June so, 1914.
Within this period the steam tonnage of the United
States has multiplied six times while that of the
United Kingdom has gained but two per cent. We
now have nearly rs per cent as much sea-going ton
mage as the United Kingdom and 23 per cent of the
worlds total. In 1914 we had a trife more than one
tenth as much tonnage as the United Kingdom and
less than five per cent of the worlds total.

children in nineteen schools were
seriously underweight. Similar con-
ditions were found in other towns Of
Colorado. The Association immedi-

remedy these conditions by means Of
health classes, serving of milk and
hot lunches, and instructions in health
habits to children, teachers and pa
rents.
Financial support for the work of
the Colorado tuberculosis association

from this sale of Christmas seals is

per cent is used locally.
