GEORGE WASHINGTON.

Today marks the 190th anniversary of the birth of George Washington which is the subject of nation wide observance. Five days after Washngtons death, on December 14 1799, John Marshall, later Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, introduced memorial in the House of Representatives which described Washingon's place in American history at that time as first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen." Although a century and one-quarter has passed since that time the resolu- tion's statement fact undisputably true today as it the time is uttered The passage of time has dimmed the brightness of the pages written into American national life by Wash ington, it has minmized the importance of the parts he played, first soldier and later states man, in the establishment of the United States of America nor lessened the warmth of Americans feel ing for him.
 It is said of Washington that his earlier years showed indications of any superior quality Of mentality anything evidence that he would later be the foremost citizen of the world and that like Lincoln he grew in greatness of mind spirit and soul greater burdens pressed him and he the demands of the times Whatever may be the case it is matter of record that at time was he found lacking when his country called As a military leader he proved the equal of the best that England's armies could furnish Even had his service to the colonies ended with the period of the Revou tionary War he would still have been accounted great That, however, but the beginning He perhaps made the formation of the Union possible his judgment on matters of political import was accepted by large element in the country absolutely with out questioning. He proved worthy of that con- fdence and of that of the entire nation when it twice elected him to the Presidency by unanimous vote and would have done third time had he not refused the honor.
 It is not often that present generations so accurately place the estimates of worth men and their services done in the of Washington More oten it remains for future people to pay honor to the statesman, or the warrior, the poet, who Ghnff off he Of fife wi recognition. Washingtons canonization, however began before the end of the and lasted until his death and beyond In his second administration there attempt to stir up friction against him but that confined a few politicians and did not amount to anything. Today few people remember the names of those engaged in the attempt what it was all about. On the other hand, Americans all over the world today unite in honoring the memory of the whom they sought to injure, remembering him the Father of Our Country.

the conference has succeeded in not only a reduction but permanent reduction III naval armaments, putting an end to com petition, both in guns and tonnage, and thls elimination of guns and tonnage extends beyond capital ships and includes all aux Hilary vessels well.
 The second achievement was what is popularly known as the fourpo treaty, by which the four nations holding insular possessions or dotninions in the Pacific ter minated the Anglo-Japanese alliance-an al liance which carried in it the seed of future troubles in the Pacific region. This was the one all-important point in the four-poweT treaty.
 The rest of it simply provides that France, Great Britain. United States and Japan will respect each others rights in their insular possessions or dominions in the Pacific, and if a controversy arises they will consult before taking any further steps,
 The treaty contains no possibility of any alliance and no obligation whatever beyond the obligation to consult in case Of con troversy and no nation is bound by the re- suits of the consultation.
 In regard to China, the outstanding and most important result was, of course, the return of the Province of Shantung by Japan to China Within six months that great province will be returned to China. Japanese troops will all be withdrawn, everything is settled about the mines and the salt works and all that Japan retains on the railroad is a traffic manager, who will be appointed by and will be under the Chinese Managing Director.
 China issues Treasury notes to pay for the railrocd d to run for fifteen years, but which can be redeemed at the end of five years, so that China has practically re- gained her great province with conditions so trfing that they have no serious weight.

Judicial View.
Brooklyn Eagle. )


 William Jennings Bryan John F. Hylan and pton Sinclair have swatted the newspaper press with some injustice and more intemperateness Gov ornor Miller, speaking to the New York State Pub fishers Association, shows judicial view from | higher viewpoint "A good many things about which have best knowledge frequently distorted in the news columns sometimes 1 have thought consciously and sometimes unconscOusly The cast of the headline the little twists in the statement of the occurrence find lodgment in the brains of countless numbers of people who it and uncon- sclousy to the reader cause that reader form an opinion" The Governor adds:
 '1 do not much what is said about me the way of editorial comment I do care how ever, and l am only speaking of the public officials, what is said as matter of news"
 Editorial writers need not feel themselves affronted or their utterances depreciated by expression They may or may not mold public opinion-some election returns indicate that they do not-but in any case their offerings arguments openly and concededly in accord with their newspapers' re- pective policies and analysed by readers as news matter is not; discounted headlines are not
 What emphasizes the Governors headline sug- gestion is the fact that many persons read heads and so few read articles from start to finish Now the headline maker seldom seeks to insinuate pro- paganda, but he is always under what might be alled the drama urge and under the fixed limta- ton or type forms. Genius, patience mental noise must be continuous through full days work or a ! uH mghts work, if he is to avoid inaccuracy and insure adequacy That he succeeds so well as be does IS marvellous to those who know his obstacles

Women Are Harder.
(New York Herald. )

The physician at Vassar College, Dr. Elizabeth Thelberg has been studying the health of girl grad for 34 years. Defending short skirts. she de- clares that the women and girls of today very much healthier than those of 20 30 years ago So, she remarks she is very much in favor of the freedom of the knees.
 It has been the experience of business houses think. that the fashion of open throats, short skirts and low shoes has been of benefit working girls and women. There are fewer absences than there used to be on account of colds and kindred ailments. The American girl is as hardy she is handsome. Yet it is only few years since winter found her mufhed from chin to toe. In 1904 when Mrs. Patrick Campbell, the English actress, went about the streets here with a gown cut V-shape at the throat she object of wonder and among some, of horror.
 Open-throat dresses the first step toward the lessening of coughs and colds among More recently the short skirt, welcomed by every walker who likes her stride free, has further accmated it's owner. Women discovered, too that the low shoe with a reasonably heavy sole. could be worn all winter It suits the short skirt and the wool stock ngs better than high boots Women have tried to wear spats, but they find them ugly. Spats are for men, whose feet and legs nothing flor admire"
 Women in winter longer a bundle of furs with nose sticking the top, are things of beauty, grace and health. Man, on the contrary has not advanced inch; in fact he seems to be slipping He is wearing ulsters again. Worse than that he has reverted to the things they used to call tippets and which known as mufflers His poor delicate throat is incased in linen collar silk scarf, woolen undercoat, woolen mufler and the col lar of his ulster. He sneezes coughs and seeks his handkerchief His sister bare of throat pities the afflicted fellow
 The female of the species is the hardier both by nature and common sense. Providence gave her en- durance because she is important in the general scheme than man. Lately she has become as free of mind as of stride You going to wear long skirts agaln, said the men of Paris who used to dictate lasnlons We are not say American women And they won't The freedom of the knees is too precious to be surrendered

HIGH PERCENTAGE OF SUCCESS.

It is estimated that the Washington Arms Limi tation Conference accomplished approximately 90 pe cent. of the things it had in mind when it Wal convened. Its failures include construction of sub marines and auxiliary craft and certain phases of thu Far Eastern question. That it did nothing with lan( armaments cannot be accounted of its failure since it was not one of the matters had in view b! President Harding when he issued the invitation to the nations to send delegates to Washington. Senator Lodge, whose duty it is to pilot tn treaties through the Senate and who of tn American delegates at the close of the conference gave this view of its labors:
 We have three principal objectives-the limitation of armaments. the termination of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, and aid to China, which would help her to establish her Government and secure real independence All three objectives have been attained, if with completeness, which, course impossible in the of China yet in very large measure
 As France owing to her situation, was unable to reduce her land forces. the efforts of the conference directed to naval armament. The three great naval powers, United States, Great Britain and Japan, have reduced their capital ships and brought them down to point where in ten years they will number fifteen for Great Britain, fifteen for the United States and ten for Japan.
 It is this reduction of capital ships which has, very naturally, chiefly attracted public attention, but the reduction involving the abandonment destruction of many capital ships was not the most important feature of the limitation.
 The great achievements, to my mind were the mutations of the tonnage of ships and the calibre of guns. for this means end to competition in armaments, and naval competition the real danger. Supple menting this with the naval holiday by which building can be undertaken before 1947, except for replacements under certain limited conditions We may truly say that
