REAL MARRIAGES
OF CONVENIENCE

Geneva, Dec. 2S.-Marriage
Is, for a woman, the solution
OF the problem Of getting pass
ports to various European coun-
trles, the difficulties of which
became almost insuperable aft
er the war. a Lucerne business
woman has discovered.
Before the war this woman,
VINO is well educated and good
looking, earned some $4,000
year, by obtaining orders for
millinery and furs from royalty
and aristocracy in the several
capitals of Europe, as a repre-
sentative of French and Wen
nese dealers. After the war,
while her former patrons had
no money for luxuries, a new
ciaSs-the war profiteers-de-
manded her attention. The
passport problem hampered
her. however.
She then formed the plan OF
marrying men of different ma
uonalities (every race can be
found in Switzerland), and pay
ing them to let her divorce
them as soon as she had estab-
hshed a passport in her new
citizenship.
| She at present has seven ex-
! husbands.

J. Louis Guyon Tells
Truth About Mod

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-The movies"
"jazz dancing" and the cigaret. as
they affect our morals, were de-
nounced at today's session. of the
International Purity conference.
W. S. Fleming. Chicago, manager
of the National Reform association,
addressed the delegates on the
Menace of the Movies" while J.
Louie Guyon, n dancing master,
also of Chicago, told the truth
about Jazz" Mr.. Guyon also told
of experiments in his own dancing
academy about the manner in which
Jazz music demoralized the young.
In discussing jazz and music,
Mr.. Guyon claimed that for half a
century the word jazz had been
a slang expression to describe I'M
moral acts and that instead of hav-
ing acquired respectability with
its present widespread use, the
word is largely confined to dancing
and music, that if regarded prop
erly it must be admitted to be at
least the begianing of a case OF
| immortality, such as the original
coiners of the word intended.
S'Jazz' is Vulgar Word.
Mr Guyon said that if the great
numbers of refined persons who
now careIessly used this word
/ knew its actual meaning, as used
| in parts OF the underworld, they
never would use the word again.
Daniel H. kress, NJ. D., of the
Washington Sanitarium. Washing
ton. D. c., was a speaker on the
! evils of the cigaret smoking and
| he told of the relation of the flag
| to crime and immortality. A ]. D.

Washington, Dec. 28.-Eugene v:
Debs has lett behind here a trail
of mingled emotions. The admins
tration which set him free is some
what sadder and wiser this NOR
row morn.
For both President Harding and
Attorney General Daugherty, who
have tried their gospel of under
standing" in trying to convert Debs
to a life of peace instead of agita-
ton, are not so sure that they have
succeeded Their disposition is to
say no more about the case and
hope that Debs will not abuse the
liberty that has been given him by
becoming a center for more agita-
ton, a rallying device for radical
ism and professional exploitation
OF the working classes.
The Harding administra ton tried
a unique experiment-one that has
been clothed somewhat in mystery
because of the very delicacy of the
undertaking. 1t is a fact that Debs
could have had a pardon long ago
if he would have agreed TO with
draw the views ne expressed
against this counlry's entrance into
the war. It is a fact that he never
would have been convicted If he
had not made a fiery speech in the
court room before the jury, going
even further than ever before II
