did as much. They were shocked
and pained. They probably murmur-

so far as to inspect rather closely the

Is America, witnessing the dark
tragedy OF humanitys experience on
the worlds bandit ridden roads, to
play the role Of the aloof priest, the
theoretically curious Levite. or the
magnanimous and practically helpful
Samaritan?
That is a question for the American
conscience. And 1t is question
which cannot be answered by the
somewhat easy compromise OF writ
ing a check to provide food and medI-

journeyed, came where he was; and
when he saw him he had compassion

SACCHARIN DISCOVERED BY
 ACCIDENT

Saccharin, 500 times as sweet as sugar, and much in demand during the war, was discovered, according to the Easier Nachrichten, by an instructor in Johns Hopkins university. The story runs as follows: ....
 In the summer of 1878 the discov- erer, c. Fahlberg by name, was try ing to restore certain organic bodies. At the dinner table at the close of a busy day he noticed that a piece of bread tasted uncommonly sweet. It occurred to him at once that the sweetness came from his hands, though he had carefully washed them before sitting down to eat. He hur- ried back to his laboratory and tasted all the glasses he had used in his ex- periments. One of them he found exceptionally sweet. He analysed the remaining drops and found that they were a derivative of benzol. In 1884 he set up an experimental factory for the manufacturing of saccharin in New York.

GENERAL FEDERATION OF
 MUSIC CLUBS MAKING : EFFORT TO CHECK "JAzz'

Dancing to Mozart minuets, Strauss waltzes and Souza two-steps would never lead to the corset-check room which now holds sway in hotels clubs and dance halls. Nor would a girl who wore corsets in those days have ben dubbed Old Ironsides' and left a disconsolate wall-flower in a corner of the ball-room," says Mrs. Marx E. Oberndorfer, National Music Chairman of the General Federation of Music Clubs.
 The quotation above appears in an article entitled "Does Jazz Put the Sin in Syncopation?" 2" written by Mrs. Oberndorfer in the interest of better music. This article which appears in the August number of The Ladies' Home Journal, points out how music may become an influence for evil. It directs particular criticism to jazz.
 Offering proof that jazz produces definite demoralizing effect on the human brain, Mrs. Oberndorfer con- tinues: "Jazz originally was the ac- compartment of the Voodoo dancer, stimulating the half-crazed barbarian to the vilest deeds"
 After pointing out the evils created by Jazz, Mrs. Oberndorfer concludes with plea for good music because of the help and inspiration it can and will give. She says: "The Music De- partment of the General Federation of Music Clubs has taken for its motto: TO Make Good Music Popular and Popular Music Good!" The article urges the women of America to help the club women carry out this motto in every home firmly, steadfastly, de- terminedly, until all the music in our land becomes an influence for good.

 "Just one minute, my good friend," said the lawyer, wishing to have wit nesses for the remark. So he hurried ly called the family in, and when all were assembled he said to his old client: "Now, say what you were go- ing to say" T'vergiven-yot-" and she stopped, her breathing becoming more and more labored.
