July is a great month for freedom.
There are three notable anniversa-
ries, ten days apart-July 4, IA, and

July "a is the date OF the birth OF
freedom in Turkey. or Of what prom

form Of government was adopted in
Turkey, July "a. 1908. on that day
the Young Turks" came to power.
Perhaps It had been better II the
old Turkey, which everybody knew
to be cruel and corrupt, had con-
tinued until the World War, and then
gone down to its doom.
There might possibly have risen
out OF il the hope Of a new Turkey
But IL the light that is in a national
hope is darkness, how great is that

The young Turks, so far as we
were able to discover. in the World
War were just as cruel and just as
corrupt as the old Turks, with the
added disadvantages that they were
young, and there was no one else 70

Perhaps revolutions never roll
backward; perhaps it should rather
be said that revolutions always roll
backward.

When Money is Freight

Last week young resident of
Venezuela arrived at New York with
a grip containing 100000 in United
States gold coin. After a complaint
by the steamship officials that the
young man had not paid the freight"
on his money, the grip and its con-
tents were confiscated by the New
York customs officers. The traveller
objected to having his money listed as
freight" and objected to the amount
charged. The steamship company's
men could not explain why gold coin
was freight" in bag carried in the
hand and not freight" when carried
in the pockets of the possessor. How
ever, they insisted on the charges,
and a few days later the young Ven

A Pigeon Discloses
Interesting Secret

Until one morning last week no
one knew that certain young woman
in New York wore around her neck
on a white ribbon under her dress,
beautiful diamond solitaire ring, and
the world would still be none the
wiser if she had not laid the precious
object on the winduw-sill while she
was dressing. Turning from her
mirror at the sound of fluttering
wings she saw a pigeon soaring away
toward the gables of an adjoining
building with the whie ribbon stream
ing from his bill. Miss Rebecca Bern
stein shrieked, and her scream of dis
may brought the neighbors from ad-
joining apartments eager to rescue
her from bold robbers. A crowd col
lected in the street below to see what
culprit the patrolman was after when
few minutes later he rapidly climb
ed a neighboring fire escape. Patrol
man Widener after inspecting the
nests under the caves descended
alone, dangling a flashing gem from
a white ribbon, and then the secret
was out.

Michigan Leads the Way in
Fruit Growing Experiments

A group of fruit growers and in
vestigators representing the Michi-
gan Horticultural Society and the
Michigan Agricultural College has set
out upon program of cooperative
experiment said to be the first of it's
kind in the country. Practical fruit
men and college experts will work to-
gether to discover and put at the
service of all the growers in the
state, the information needed to meet
their problems and to make Michigan
fruit the finest and most abundant of
it's kind.
Tests with grapes and small fruits
will be made to determine the kinds
and amounts of fertilizers that should
he used. and also to settle the contro-
versv between grape growers as to
the number of buds to leave under
different conditions of vigor, for the
| protection of the succeeding seasons
crop.
Sod mulch crops such as alfalfa,
clover and grasses will be tested and
compared in the cultivation OF apple
and cherry orchards, and also to dls-
cover which cover crop returns the
most humus to the soil. Other ex-
periments are expected to determine
the best time to apply nitrates to
peaches.
A special experiment will be to-
ward settling the general disagree
ment among apple growers as to the
amount and kind of pruning young
trees should receive. An effort VII
be made to force biennially bearing
apple trees into annual fruit produc
ton through pruning and fertlllza
tion. Tests of dusts and sprays botf
for cheapness and effectiveness vii
be very thoroughly conducted.

American Working Women
Plan World Wide Disarm-
ament Demonstration

A worldwide demonstration for
disarmament by the women of all ma
tions, to be held on Armistice Day,
when the International Disarmament
Conference convenes in Washington,
was iitiated today by organizedAmer-
lean working women through the Ma
tional Women's Trade Union League.
kilograms inviting participation of a
score of women's organizations of the
United States and the organized wo-
men in forty-eight nations which are
sending delegates to the Second In
ternational Congress of Working Wo-
men in Geneva were sent out today
on behalf of the National Women's
Trade Union League by Mrs. Ray
mond Robins, it's national president,
who is also president of the Interna-
tional Congress of Working Women.
''To strengthen the governments in
their desire to disarm, by giving un-
equivocal expression of the women OF
all the world" is the purpose of the
demonstration. Plans are not yet
announced as to the form the demon
stration will take, but committees will
at once be organized in order to put
the arrangements well under way
before the American delegates to the
International Congress of Working
Women sail for Geneva early in Sip
tember. The American demonstra-
ton will focus in Washington, where
it may take the form of parade, and
it will doubtless be carried out locally
all over the country also.
The message of the National Wo-
mems Trade Union League to the wo-
men of forty nations, signed by
Mrs. Robins, says:
"Pvesident Harding has set Armis'
!. tice Day for the opening of the mo,
r mentous disarmament conference a
, Washington. When we remember the
: joy that went up from the peoples O
, all nations in thanksgiving tn tapeact
r, would once more dwell on earth, M
other day would lend the same signi

+ as this anniversary of November II
1918. Since that day the aftermath
- of the war with it's hunger, suffering
and misery has appalled, the con
g science and paralyzed the spirit o
!, mankind. This is the great hour fo
women of the world to help lead hu
manity out ofthe darkness that over
= whelmed it. The hour to liberate hu
is manity from the crushing burden Q
T. armaments is at hand. The govern
e ment will be strengthened in their dc
le sire to disarm if the women of the ne

free from any possibility of pursuit.
