BOOZE ON SHIPS

Whether it is jutifiable to sell liquor
on board American steamships engaged
in transoceanic traffic may be open to
question. There is the business argu-
ment, at least, that it helps our ships to
compete with foreign liners; and in the
present state of the shipping industry,
that is an important consideration.
But the moral issue can hardly be ig-
nored in such a case as that of the Pres
ident Adams, a shipping board steamer
plying between New York and Europe via
Boston. That liner is reported to have
bad its bar operating at capacity on it,.
maiden voyage from the time it left New
York until it reached Boston, and ap.
parently large number of passengers
who took full advantage of the situation
were travelling only from the one Amcri-
can port to the other.
1t seems clear enough, to the man in

SMALL IMMIGRATION

The fixing by the department of labor
Of 3J7 SOB as the number of immigrants
who may come into this country during
the twelve months beginning July / does
not mean that many will come. The
number of recruits is sure to be much
less.
Some of the countries will take full
advantage of their quotas, as they have
done the past year. Others will not
1t may be doubted whether the total
number of entrants will be more than
100000 Recent figures have seemed
| to indicate that the total for the pres
cnt year will fall considerably short of
that figure.
Moreover, there must be set off
against these entrants the large number
of immigrants already here who will
leave during the year for the old coun-
| try. There has been considerable emf
grafton in the last few months. Although
dependable figures are not at hand, It
seems safe to say that perhaps there
will not be more than 100000 net gain
in population from foreign sources either
in the present fiscal year or the next
ono. This is notable drop from the
years when we used to import million
immigrants, and keep two-thirds OF
them.
1t has been reported lately, too, thai
most of the present immigrants are
women, and that there is actually mel
loss in male immigration. This is sit
uation not looked for, and one tha
works with the three per cent restric
ton law to save this country from thu
cheap labor competition that was fearet
as a result of the war.

1t Wasn't a PlesiOsaurus at ALI,
Just Megatherium or Clyptodon

the edentates, such as the glyptodon
and megatherium, belonged to the
Quatornary era of only a million years
ago. He said that from 1890 to the
present time there had been twelve
places in Patagonia, between latitudes
SO and 90, at which mysterious crea-
lures were reported to have been seen.
These, he believes, constitute few
survivors of the genus, which existed IN
the Pleistocene period.
Professor Onelli said he had been
obliged to postpone the start of the
expedition for another week as a total M
5000 were yet lacking.
The glyptodon was creature re-
sembling the armadillo, and which at
tained the size of an OK. 1t had strong
limbs with short, broad feet.
The megatherium was gigantic,
sloth like edentate, from eighteen to
twenty feet in length. 1t had short
neck, heavy body and powerful tail
and hind legs With its strong, prehen,,
sile tongue it tore from trees and
shrubs the leaves and twigs upon which
it subsisted.
