FOOLS AND CENSORSHIP.
There Is an Unfortunate Affinity Be-
 tween Them, Says Haywood Bronn.

tHScu ihein, k5ayn he5 WtoQ DfouH.
 To my mind there are three possible positions which may logically be taken concerning censorship. It might be entrusted to the wisest man in the world, to series of average men or be abolished. Unfortunately it has been our experience that there is a distinct affinity between fools and cen sorship. It seems to be one of those treading grounds where they rush in.
 To be sure, we ought to admit a prejudice at the outset and acknow- ledge that we were a reporter in France during the war at time when censors seemed a little more ridicu- Ious than usual. We still remember the young American lieutenant who held up story of boxing match in Saint Nazaire because the reporter wrote: "In the fourth round Macbeth landed nice right on the Irishman's nose and the claret began to flow" I'm sorry" said the censor, "but we have strict orders from Major Palmer that no mention of wine or liquor is to be allowed in any story about the American army" M
 Nor have we forgotten the story of General Petain's mustache. Why asked Junins Wood of the Globe, have you held up my story? All the rest have gone"
 Unfortunately" answered the cour- teous Frenchman, "you have twice used the expression General Petain's white mustache." might stretch a point and let ys;; ssy .<rs- mus tache," but l should much prefer to have you say 4blond mustache."
 "0h, make it green with purple spots," said Junius.

Thus when the strings" become soiled they can be easily removed and laundered, making it unnecessary to wash the en- tire cap. Mrs. Lillian Duffee,
