Promotion Of "Purs Enelish.s
In England. a. In the United States,
the subject of preserving the purity Of
the English language from the effects
of slang, loss Of grammatical distinc-
lions, etc, has recently attracted much
attention. One OF the results Of the
movement In England ls the formation
Of the Society for Pure English. The
society was founded In 1918. but was
compelled BY the war to postpone its
activities. The reason for the exist
ence Of the society is given a. "the
duty Of Engllsh-speaking peoples to
make their language adequate and
efficient, and worthy Of its increasing
snd worldwide use. Its purpose Is
10 further the best interest Of the
language BY the proinulgatIon Of sound
knowledge" It Is asserted that the
Society for Pure English does not In.
tend to d0gmatixe but to open an In
formal democratic court In which all
questions may be argued on full In.

DISARMAMENT DIS
CUssEDLAsT SUNDAY

vice over to the consideration Of the
objects Of the disarmament confer
once to meet In Washington the last
of the week.
Special and patriotic muatc waA
provided. An orchestra rendsssd DE-
lighttul assistance in the musacal
numbers.
Prof. Raymond johnson and 3. O.
smathers presented their views sof
the matter, pointing out more the
obstacles that were In the way Of an
agreement among the nations: OF
the fears. some imaginary. and some
real. that prevented the nations from
at once whole heartedly and sincere
iy accepting the proposal to do away
armies and nayies and trusting to
agreement to settle all differences.
The addresses must hape convinced
those present that the coming con-
ference has no easy task before It;
that the best to be hoped for Is some
limltati0n. to the- e-tansnsass -as.UuAts.
that have gone to preparing for war
In the past; and that even then ali
nations will probably be watching
other nations with suspicion for fear
the agreements will not be kept.
No nation can blindly close Its
eyes to the acts Of other nations.

FIVE HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS LEAKED OUT OF
YOUR POCKET LAST YEAR

If you kept company with the cav
erage investor" who sunk a total of
$500, 100000 in worthless stocks last
year, you contributed your share of
this colossal sum
This is the Federal Trade Board
figure of the annual waste and loss
borne by foolish people who want
something for nothing" and get moth
ing at all.
And there is no stopping the "suck-
err" list. Year after year its total piles
up staggering human belief. The
sucker" type of human being cannot
be induced to invest his money in
first-rate securities of proven earning
power. He won't look at gilt-edge
preferred stock or bond guaranteeing
him from 8 to 10 per cent income. He
wants something for nothing"
He goes after the fake promotions
and the wildcat stocks. He gets
nothing but not for nothing. Every
year he pays a half billion dollars in
cold, hard cash for nothing. There is
no stopping him from doing it over
and over again The only advice we
care to give our readers is not to keep
company with suckers" but invest
their spare cash in the first-rate Sc
curities of concerns with national
standing. There are plenty of them
on the bargain list now. Why chase
wildcats? wonders Sugarman's In
dicatOr.

Plans We're completed Saturday

Commission met in Doylestown, and

THE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS

Three cardinal principals, wisely
enunciated by our forefathers, built
this republic:
Freedom of speech.
Freedom of religious thought.
Freedom of the press.
Good men and true have died for
all three.
The first two have been sustained
and nourished by the untrammeled
freedom of the press.
The American press has never
abused its enormous power, and any
political effort to harness it, or con-
troll it, would meet with instant de-
feat.
BUT COMMERCIALISM is DO
ING WHAT POLITICS COULD
NEVER Do, TOWARD THE SUB
JUGATION OF OUR NEWS
PAPERS.
Unconseiously, and without Interior
motive, the manufacturing interests
that use enormous quantities of paper
pulp in the packaging of products,
and manufacturers of paper articles
outside the publishing channels. are
daily contributing to the foreign con-
troll of the press of this country.
1t is not a pleasant situation to
contemplate.
Because of the enormous consump-
ton of wood for comercial purposes,
most of the paper used by the news
papers comes now from Canada under
cancellable concessions.
And at the present rate of con-
sumption, there remains on this con-
tinent, only enough for the next
twenty years.
The demand for the expensive,
wasteful paper package is fictitious
one. Food was very much less ex-
pensive out of barrels. Freights were
lower. Labor costs less.
Demand goods in bulk, and keep
the American press American!

The Solebury Penn Club Base Ball
team defeated the Solebury girls team
in full nine inning contest by score
of IS to IL.
The Base lines were shortened to
40 feet and this seemed in the first
few innings to throw the Solebury
girls (who have been playing on
the full diamond) out of their stride.
The game was replete with fine
fielding and fast base running. The
Penn Club team was well trained
and showed good knowledge of the
fine points of the game. Miss Wal

was fine example of well developed
play. The teams and score follows:

WOMEN OF FUTURE TO WEAR
FEWER CLOTHES.

THE costume forty years from now
will be patterned after the present
day bathing suit" declares Marie
Provost.
"All women will wear their hair
bobbed-and then they will know what
is meant by absolute freedom-espec-
tally if they wear sandals or go bare
footed.
"The censors are trying to make
laws concerning women's clothes, but
they will never succeed. Woman is
a law unto herself-and she will laugh
in the faces of those who try to make
her wear costumes to suit their tastes
"The modern bathing suit is more
modest than the modern evening
gown.
'If we were accustomed to seeing
the legs bare instead of sheathed in
the thinnest of thin stockings, we
would have less to be shocked at than
now when the skirts are so short
that most of the leg covered with lace
hosiery is revealed anyway.
When women assume the bathing
suit as pattern for their clothes, they
will have much less to worry about
in the way of dress-makers and their
husbands will not have to work so
hard to keep them in stylish garments.
"Also-and this is the important
thing-they will then spend their time
in building up a really beautiful body
rather than on so useless an idea as
the fashionable design of a gown.
IF the body is free, the mind and
spirit are accordingly free-and with
time to improve the body, mind and
spirit, then will arrive in reality the
super-woman, who is modest, but not
ashamed real comrade and real
helper to man."

BEFORE AND AFTER

| used to know an old negro down
South whose favorite expression
whenever he made blunder) was
EFF NAH 'front.' thought wuz ez good
ez nah hind thought, All wouldn't be
gittin' inter trouble so much"
This old negro was an ignorant
as they make them he couldn't read
or write but he had a good philoso-
ply. And the above expression is good
enough for anyone, white or black,
ignorant or wise. Looking ahead and
acting in the present to provide for
the future, is the difference that
makes success from failure and good
from evil.
During the controversy between
the Sergeantsville Community House
and the Delaware Township officials
story was given this paper outlin-
ing the plea made by the Community
House for exemption from taxation.
And altho he was not named in the
article at all, John E. Barber came
to this office to protest against it,
saying, 81 am that slick politician,
referred to in your paper" He had
to identify himself more clearly be-
fore / could even associate him with
the article
At that time, July 29th, when ask
ed about tie petitions filed by Mr..
Ent and Mr.. Stevenson, asking THAI
the Community House be taxed, Mr..
Barber said, 81 had nothing to do
with those petitions"
On August 3rd, when the hearing
was held before the County Board of
Taxation, Mr.. Barber was reported as
saying that he took the petitions to
VIM. Ent and VIM. r. Stevenson, and
that he was proud of it."
In last Fridays issue of this paper
Mr.. Barber, over his signature, said
81 had nothing to do with the IN
CEPTION of those petitions
In other words, Mr.. Barber had an
afterthought, and accordingly added
INCEPTION But Mr.. BARRIERS orig
inal statement was, II HAD NO
THING TO DO WITH THOSE Pc
TITIONS." And a third party was
present when he made the statement,
and verifies it.
However, Mr.. Barber need not
worry about the "dotting of the and
the crossing of the t. for the County
Board has decided that the Communi-
ty must pay tax on a $4,000. assess
ment. This is one thousand more than
the Township Committee recommend
ed, and the Community House Officials
have agreed to pay it.
And l want to take occasion to say
again, as | have said many times.
before, that just as I freely printed
Mr.. BARRIERS statement, l will gladly
print anything on any side of any
controversy that may demand publ
city. Mn Barber seemed surprised
that l would print his statement. He
had failed to send one in when l had
previously asked for it. He said his
friends had told him that it would not
be printed.
And so l want it clearly understood
that space in this paper will be ac-
corded to anyone involved in any ques-
ton whether it be against my per-
sonal opinion or not. But remember
to ascertain that your front thought
is as good as your "hind thought" be-
fore you make any public statement
