CONDEMNED MEN
 IN FRANCE GIVEN
 FOOD DELICACIES

Caen. Francs, Oct. 31--Men con- demned to death, ii has become a custom in France, may eat or drink what they like for thaa$ last meal. Most of them ask for rum and a cigarette,
 Ths prosecutor of the republic was amazed when a few days ago, a con demned assassin refused them and, in response to request as to what he desired, said: "t should like to have il "homard 6 fAmericaine." The American lobster" OF the 'lobster done in ths American fashion as it appears oH the menus of the best es- tablishmeRts, acquires a deep water stomach lR order ts digest it:

JOURNALISM IS PART OF COURSE
 AT WEST POINT

West Point. Oct. 31-Future gen erals in the United States army are studying newspapers as part of their course at the military academy.
 The cadets are required to read two New York dailies, as part of their class work on current events, and pass examinations on deductions from important stories and editorials. Of ficers at the post say 1t is one of the most interesting, if not one of the most valuable innovations in many years.
 The papers are read immediately after breakfast. The instructors then quiz the cadets orally on the news of the day. They are asked to summarize the important happen ings, foreign and domestic. and ex- plain their significance.
 Col. l.. H. Holt, head of the depart ment of history. economies and gov ernment, suggested the plan which recently was approved by Btfgadier- General Douglas MhcArthur, the su- perintendent.

ARTIST BRIDE TELLS WHY SHE
 LIVES NEXT DOOR TO HUSBAND

dividuality Some women have to give up their work, when two cannot agree on the value of going on with a career.
 But I believe that each one must work out his or her own salvation in matrimony or in a career, as it seems best to do.''
 A very picturesque person, Miss Traphagen. Tall, slender, with chest nut braids wrapped tight about her shapely head, she resembles the type of women Burne-Jones, the great English painted, loved to portray.
 More simplicity in life would help us aN,'' she continued. "The trouble with many modern women, not busi- ness women, of course, is that they like to ape the styles and manner isms of the society women or the nouceaux riches. They are content to follow a leader.
 "One's own real self is the pearl of great price and should not be relin- quished.
 My husband moved over here from 18th street.
 "Why? Oh, because I didn't like 59th street." she explained, with a twinkle.
 These separate houses are studios Nos. 32 and 33, near enough for com panionship, far enough apart for two careers to keep on f1ourishing.
 ''We'n keep on doing whatever we like, and both will retain our old friends.

 Captain Living when confronted with this situation hastended to Ots tawa and laid the facts before Pre- nlieE TaSchereau. who placed at hif disposal such quantities of four. lard molasses and tea as will keep the ma. tives alive until spring.

Denver, Oct: 31.-A novel thrift pIan for the benefit of Denver news boys has been evolved by Sidney keoughan, local oil magnate. who an- nounces that he will give 800 odd s'neWsies' under 16 years of age a head start by opening a savings ac- count for them in local bank.
 At Christmas, this year, Keoughan will add amounts to the accounts of bows as follows:
 Twenty dollars to each of the five boys making the best record for add ing to the original account $15 each to the next five; $10 each to the next five; s5 each to the next five, and 100 S1 prizes to boys who have taken advantage of his offer and add ed to the original deposit made for them by Keoughan:

JAPAN WOULD WELCOME DISARMAMENT, DECLARES NIPPONESE STATESMAN

London, Oct. 31.-Disarmamen is more urgently welcomed in Japan than in any other country, according to Viscount Kano. who represents that nation on the League of Nations Council.
 In an interview granted Interna- tfonal News Service. Viscount kano tells of the feelings, hopes and ap- prehensions of his people as follows:
 Japan is often blamed being a militaristic and Jingoist country. But everybody who is familiar with her history knows that she has been un- f6sc the menace of foreign invasion TOT centuries. The invasion by the 1zons s<ls was the first. Then, In the Japan was obliged to close her coun- try for fear of conquest by European maritime nations. The power of Bri- : tain extended through India and Sin gapore to Hong Kong. The French came as near as Cochin China. The Dutch and dhe Portuguese took the South Sea Islands. Russia was stretch ing her ans through Siberia to Man ! churia. When Japan saw that neigh ] boring countries were passing one by one to foreign dopination 1t was in evitab1e that she should feel appre- hensive, and the patriotic feelings of the people were thoroughly aroused.
 fThe realization of her peril pro- foundly stirred her imagination, and she resilved upon taking drastic steps for her self-preservation. Hence her reconstruction from feudalism to na- tionalism. Such a. step was deemed by all the far-seefng population in her midst to be her only salvation.
 The reconstruction of our army and navy inevitably followed. But 1t was only during the 15 years that fol- lowed the Russian was that the mill itaristic party grasped political pow CT and propagated among the people the necessity of territorial expansion in Manchuria, and Siberia.
 German Loss Lesson
 'Fortunate1y for Japan the failure of the Prussian militarism in the great war was a striking lesson and at the same time my people found the : burden of expense for the army and
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-10-31

navy to be into1erab1e.
 Disarmament is more urgently welcomed in Japan than in any other
 country. She is poor in natural re- sources. Her transport is not yet ef-
 f1cient, and houses are scarce. These
 facts have had a great effect on her national feelings; her imperiaistic aims have in consequence been great ly modified.
 Let me give you three pictures of
 Japan at the present time: First: Several months in advance
 of the proposal by the United States
 government to hold the conference in
 Washington MT. Ozaki, ex-Minister of
 Justice. made a disarmament tour throughout Japan and took a post card vote. Ninety per cent of the population declared itself in favor of disarmament.
 1.-The second picture is one that will appeal to all American and British mothers:
 "In Japan we have conscription and at the age of 20 every boy must present himself for medical inspec- tary or naval training. Every one of their mothers worships at the shrine. praying that her son may be passed medically unfit to join the army. Third picture: When the anti American feeling was very strong the students of all the universities and colleges in Tokio decided at a confer ence that they would not fight against America or any nation, because war helped the capitalist and the manu- facturer alone, and all the rest of the community suffered
 'It might we'll be asked why Japan is spending 50 per cent. of her rev enue on the army and navy. It is be- cause Japan is not as yet thoroughly democratic and never will be until the political franchise is extended to women.
 "Economic needs caused America to call a disarmament conference at Washingt to solve the Pacific prob lem, one which should be discussed by the nations of the whole world, with the working classes represent

 E Captain Living is in charge of the Canadian governments reindeer herd and is stationed at Lobster Bay, Lab rador. In emergencies, he acts as counsellor and physician for the ma tives.e He carries on his return trip a supply of f1rst-aid remedies and simple medicines. 2
 He was forced to leave. Labrador and obtain outside aid because, he said, the Indians. half-Eskimos and sprink1ing of whites married to na- lives which constitute the population, had become utterly dependent upon outside relief.

New York, Oct. 31.-In the Poplar street studios, a bit of Parnassus, bound to earth in Brooklyn, are two who dwell in that state of matrimony made famous by Fannie Hurst.
 And yet there is a. difference, too. While Miss Ethel Traphagen - she still uses her maiden name-and her husband, William R. Leigh. have separate homes, they live right next door to each other. They eat three meals 8 day together and visit back and forth. Yet both are free to pur- sue their careers in their own way.
 Where have you heard those names before? Well. Ethel Traphagen is an artist and designer of note, as we'll as an author of books on costume de- sign, while her distinguished husband paints vivid pictures of our great Southwest, which have brought sum light and a breath of clean air from the desert into many a home and art gallery.
 and until recently these two artists have been roughing 1t in canyons and plains of the widest parts of Arizona
 Having lived happily in the primi- tive style, Miss Traphagen and MT. Leigh now return to the most modern married state, the separate house hold.

The time is not far off when people will insist on "pure cloth laws" as much as pure food laws" There is so much clever imitation of all wool, pure silk, and pure linen that people are often deceived. A woman has a right to know how much cotton is in the wool goods she is buying Show much and what filling is in her silk, and whether flax or cotton is in the making of her linens. As far as our information can go we shall tell her the strict truth.
