CHALLENGED CIVILIZATION.

In a commencement address at
Northwestern University, Chicago,
Chase S. Osborn, former governor of
Michigan, said: "The white race has
seized three-fourths of the area of
the earth and placed two-thirds Of its
population in tributary slavery, he
declared, and predicted that unless
Americans learn the way of life and
human justice this country will follow
the descent Of Babylon and Greece
and Rome. -E..... "..
In challenging present day civiliza-
tion, Mr.. Osborn said: F'The Genoa
parley, the arms parley at Washing
ton, the council of Versailles ARE as
those Of yesterday, met in distrust
and not in contrition; for safety first,
rather than for right, justice, and
humanity first" -.. s--...''.. =. =.

$500 hi U, s. Who

Dr.. R. S. Copeland
Urges Campain for Industrial
Health and Welfare.

There are $500 men and women in
the United States who are past 100
years of age, said DR.. Royal S. Cope
land, health commissioner for New
Y ork City, in an address as chairman
OF the bureau of sanitary science and
public health of the American Insti-
tute of Homeopathy at it's session at
the Drake hotel. --.-..
DR.. Copeland asserted that by right
living and right thinking the aver
age person should live to be 100, with
"eye undimmed and natural force ur-
abated," but intimated that industrial
hygiene was essential before this
could be realized.
every thoughtful person must ap-
preciate that at least one-third Of all
adults are engaged in some industrial
pursuit" DR.. Copeland continued.
"The welfare of this great army must
be considered most carefully or the
fabric of society will be destroyed. To
my mind, Industrial hygiene is, in
many respects the most important of
all the public health activities.
~.t Old Man Methuselah.
because Methuselah lived to 969
the popular idea is that people lived
to ripe old age in those days. Go
back three or four generations in
American history and people didn't
live long. They used to go in the
house in the fall as soon as it got cold.
They nailed their windows shut and
tucked rags around the windows and
didn't take bath till the ice went
out Of the river in the spring. No
wonder they died young.

York City. The average duration of
life then was forty-two years. It is
now fifty-three years. But we are not
progressing fast enough to suit the
present generation.
Must Protect Workers..

liable method of insuring to the work.
er such environment and protection
from hazard as will guarantee the
maximum of health and expectation
of life.
"Let us begin today with a cam

JEWS TO PROTEST.

A nationwide protest against the
anti-Semitic policies of Harvard
University, and the treatment ac-
corded Leonard Kaplan in the Lucky
Bag, the United States Naval Acad-
emy publication, will be made by the
Jewish population generally, Louis
Friedman Of Brooklyn has announced.
Organizations already are being
formed, he said, to seek legislative
protection against what he described
as the rising tide Of racial antag-
onism. If the Jews, with all their
wealth find it necessary to protest
against racial determinations, it is
doubly necessary for the colored, with
little wealth, to fight against racial
wrongs.

AGAINST Transforming

New York. Oct. 2O.-Sentiment
among the major league club own
ers against post-season transforming
may result in POSITIVE legislation
against this practice at the winter
meetings.
The magnates have always taken
the stand that the game and the play
ers themselves derive no credit from
unsuperyised playing after the close
of the season and some stories coming
to their ears this fall support their
contention.
Reports of major leaguers playing
against ineliaibles have come to the
attention of Commissioner Lands ana
il is understood that he Is making an
investigation.
Several teams with prominent
major leaguers have been beaten in
the last week by colored semi-pro
teams and the showing made by the
bio league stars was said not to De
first class.
Under the stress of public sympathy
aroused for Babe Ruth, Bob Meusei
last spring, the bars against barn
storming bv members of pennant win
nine teams were lowered to the eN-
tent of giving them a chance to pick
up some easy money if they secured
the permission of their club owners
and the commissioner. Players on
other than champion teams were also
allowed the same pritilege.
The clup owners figure that the
result has been unsatisfactory anc
the only thing to do to prevent DIS
credit to the game is to stop all kinds
of transforming in the future.
There has been no hint of scandal
in anv of the activities of the players.
objection of the officials of the game
has been aroused because the players
have not been giving the exhibitions
that the public expects OF major
league players.
The stove league is now engaged
in picking a new manager for the
Washington Senators and the Boston
Red SoX. Clark Griffith has an
nounced he would like to have Mike
Kelly, ST. PauPs pennant winning
manager take hold of the Senators,
