ITALIAN FAvoRITE STUDY.
Among the People of the United States
Lately.

South Hadley, Mass, Feb. A
marked increase in the number of per
sons studying the Italian language in
this country is attributed in part to
the war and in part to the celebration
this year Of the 600th anniversary of
the death of Dante by DIR. Mary Vance
Young, professor of Roman languages
and literature at Mount Holyoke col
lege.
"Ohe of the interesting and unex-
pected consequences of war" she said,
sis the increase in the study Of Italian.
Figures lately compiled in the New
York high schools show $4,000 students
of Italian as against 300 of German.
1t seems probable that when things
finally settle italian may have come
into It's own Undoubtedly il has new
er received the attention due Italy's
superlatiNelv beautiful literature and
the Importance Of It's great men
an this country there is the sddi-
tional fact that so many Italians come
yearly to our shores who with proper
instruction are capable Of making need
ed contributions 10 our culture and in
quiry. Perhaps an incentive Is found
lust now in the celebration Of the
600th anniversary of the death II
Dante which viii take place this wear.

CHICAGO MAY GET
100 SQUARE MILES
By Reclamation of Foreshore on Lake
Michigan, Where There IS
Gentle Slope.

Chicago, Feb. 4.-Reclamation of the
foreshore on Lake Michigan in the Chi
cago district would provide nearly 100
square miles of land for wharves, ware
houses and port facilities, according to
a report submitted to city officials by
Col. w. " Judson, district war de-
partment engineer.
The report calls attention to the
fact that ocean liners may dock at
Chicago's wharves within the next fit-
teen years if the Great Lakes St.Law-
renee river channel project is carried
out. Such an outlet to the Atlantic
would connect Chicago with the sea
routes of the world. The coal mines
of southern Illinois and the cotton belt
Of the south will feel the touch Of
Chicago commercial endeavor through
an eight foot barge channel TO the Mis-
sissippi. "Never before did it seem as
fair to point out in prophecy region
where there must inevitably and soon
be established the worlds greatest port
facilities the report says.
"The foreshore of Lake Michigan
fronting Chicago slopes very gently
lakeward," the report continues, so
that the seven fathom contour is four
miles off shore. This means that in
our submerged lands, all publicly
owned. the Chicago district possesses
nearly hundred square miles, any
part of which it is within the power
of man to raise into land. This is an
asset Of almost incalculable value"
Reviewing the sections of Chicago's
lake front, Col. ,Judson points out that
Lakes Wolf and George lie close to
Lake Michigan on the Illinois Indiana
line with six square miles Of marshy
land adjacent This section 'offers the
greatest opportunity in all this region
for the creation of wharf facilities of
a character, magnitude and location
suited to the demands of the future
the report says.
General plans for these harbor facil-
tiles, Col Judson said. have been APP
proved by the war department, which
is charged with studying harbor condi-
tions under the Esch -Cummins law

SHOULD MEN BE GRACEFUL?
Ball Players, Boxers, Wood Choppers,
in Action, All Prove They Are.

''Feats of strength and dexterity are
generally applauded, while the more
difficult accomplishments OF combining
strength and dexterity with grace and
beauty attract less attention.
Thus a magazine writer proceeds 20
start an argument:
should men be graceful
He finds fault because Americans are
more liberal in their applause Tor a
Babe Ruth's home run than for dane.
er's leap on the stage; because beauti-
full dancing does not bring down the
house in the solid manner Templeton
raises havoc on the grdiron when he
places his toe TO the pigskin.
The writer comes TO the conclusion
that some day American men viii
strive more determinedly for graceful
ness and beauty. When that time ar
rives therel be few at the ringside 10
see a Dempsey deliver left jab to the
jaw, and therell be more cheers for

things have thrust themselves into civ
ilization as II marched along. But
Men are graceful!
Ever see man chopping wood a
man who knows how to handle an AK
There's grace, and beauty, too!
No man dancer ever exhibited more
Of grace and beauty than Ty Cobb does
when sliding into second.
Nijinsky's leap is no more graceful
than the submarine wind-up used by
the celebrated Mister Mays of the New
York Yankees
Should men be graceful? of course
they should The best argument Is con
tanned in this: Men are graceful. Ever

How gracefully he does il How grace

Should men be GRACEFUL
Why waste time asking? Men are

were draped back to the ratings on the
gallery. The entertainers in the con-
cert were under this canopy with the
lights thrown off excepting those in the
canopy. During the second drill that
the patrol gave the lights were off and
the only light was that thrown from
little electric lights attached to the
Arabic head covering. Miss Lorraine
Estee, Misses Leitta Catanach and
Laura Eddy, two little tots, danced for
the amusement of the spectators, while

TIME conference lllustrsted by
| the above drawing is but one
OF many that have taken place
during the past three years between
the various members of business
firms in which the question OF add
ing profits to surplus or paying them
out ir dividends was considered
The older members, who were quite
familiar with the ups and downs OF
bu ness. were inclined to strengthen
the surplus while the younger and
less experienced members were eager
for dividends and disbursements OF
earnings. The large surplus carried
by many of the firms and corpora
tions of the country is the great sta
billzing influence so much needed
during these months OF falling prices.
These SURPRISES have saved many
corporations from bankruptcy The
first aim OF every conservative BUSH
ness man Is to create q surplus to
serve him in times OF financial dis
turbance, and falling prices. This
surplus is generally not represented
BY cash in the bank but often in
large part by goods on hand, by
receivable accounts from those with
whom the firm deals, by raw ma
terials, and by investments in in
come producing securities. These
raw materials ON hand in most cases
were purchased at a great cost and
must be manufactured into products
