How Ambassador Page SCORED
a Point and Yet, Avoided an
Awkward Situation. -

Boston Transcript.
In spite OF the cable. in spite OF the
hearings given to the press, In spite
Of the whole rattle and banx of"open
diplomacy" It seems that even an
American Ambassador OF thls later
day can invent nice little game
against his own country and "Ect
away with IT," The English papTs
are chortling gayly over little story
that has como out In the late Walter
H. Pages letters, which are appear
Ing In the Worlds Work. Mr.. PaEe.
MS Ambassador at London. was work.
ing hard on the side OF the allies. be-
fore the United States entered the
war and writing to President Wilson
ard Colonel House all about g. He was
particularly distrustful. II seems. Of
Secretary Lansing. or AT least ,of his
ships at sea as against the interior
ence OF the British cruisers. Refer
ring to Lansing. ne wrote to colonel
House that the curse OF tho world Ia
little men who for an imagined tenn
porary advantage throw away the
flcng growth OF good will nurtureh by
wise and patient men,"
But II must have been Mr. Bryan
who was his game In the circum-
stances TO he related, for II Is said
to have taken place In January. 1915
and Mr., LNnsing did not become Sec
rotary OF state until June OF that
year. It happened that IN January
the steamship Dacla left our shores
with a cargo OF cotton for Germany
II was before the full application OF
the blockade. The Dacia- 1t appeared
| had been bought from the Germans
| by an American citizen OF German
origin. and had received American
registry. As matters stood. she had
according TO our Interpretation OF In
tcrnational law, the right OF passage
The British government wanted Il
stop her. but Mr.. Bryan had made AZ
much fuss about seizures that Sir Ed
ward Grey hentated. And here tn,
deep diplomacy OF Mr.. Page stepped
in, as against his own superior in Of
ice. Don't you think" ne said pri
vately 10 Sir Edward Grey. that tn,
French feet ought 10 have a little nd
vertising?" This, OF course. wa
equivalent to saying, Let the French
seize the Dacia. and nobody In Ameri
ca Will say a word" And 30 II turnes
out; tho "tip" was given TO France
A french cruiser seized he Dacia
without exciting a murmur in Ameri
ca" as the London Spectator puts II
I II memory serves Alright, there wa
a considerable nurmur over IN
DaciaS seizure. but the point OF tn
matter 10 the somewhat startling lib
erty which the Ambassador at Londo
took In suggesting this course for be
seizure. II seems as we have euR
gested. that there still Is, fafticularl
, in time of war. \ certain opportunit
for ingenious devices that lie well be

by the smart Parisienne for the COM
ing season, 10 used for the develop
ment of the two models pictured. The
outstanding features are the modified
waist-line and the treatment of the
lower edge of the skirt. The first
frock. in black broadcloth, gives prom
inence to the pennant hem and has a
high note of jade introduced in the
narrow panelette at the side. While
still low, the waist is not markedly
subnormal. Medium size requires 2X

40-inch satin, used crosswise.
The gathered tunic, tlrapcd over the

droops in point at the back, being
deeply faced with >henna crepe. This

II DIR. Copeland enjoyed the med
icine bail, he should make tour OF
the Scenic West and national parks
next summer and see what comfort
able and suitable clothing and hiking,
mountain climbing and riding are do
Ing for the American young women.
And IL he can get away right now he
should make circle tour Of the Rocky
Mountain, Yosemite and Mount Raj
nier National parks where the winter
sports are now in the doing-skiing,
snowshoeing and tobogganing. Anyone
who con believe that these young wom-
en- are becoming physically untitled
for motherhood is hopeless.
Some time ago an article was
printed in The New York Herald
about the improved physical condi-
tlon of young women. 1t was a wide
spread search that led to every part
of the country and especially to all
the wOmen's colleges. In sum, the
facts collected showed that girls Of
today are bigger. stronger, healthier
than ever before, and in passing It
was also learned that this '1arger"
generation of women were not averse
to matrimony, that their added inches
and increased strength did not take
from them the Instinct Of mating and
motherhood. Unless these signs fall,
the generation to appear will have bet
ter chances for health and success in
life than the two or three which Inn
mediately preceded 1t.
In connection with the question OF
athletics for Women?T the corset
controversy has again broken out. 1t
naturally would, for the girls of today
are leaving or corsets and the ''per-
feet SO" Of yesterday is today In the
discard. Says DIR. d. NJ. Dunn, head
OF the women's department OF the
Life Extension Institute, In the Fore
cast:
"These winds OF contention have
swept everyone into three groups I:
Those who stand for the total aban-
donment OF the corset; those who ac-
eept 1t nnthinkingly as u mere adjunct
to d,ess; those who. believing It can
bc reconciied with laws OF health,
take 1t seriously enough to select Ii
with the greatest care.
"More than year ago the Interna-
tional Conference Of Women Physl-
clans assumed the first position,
adopting the principle Of No corsets
for Women.
''ro the older generation this ques-
tIon has almost moral significance.
They themselves were brought up in
corsets almost from babyhood and new
er questioned either their place In the
toilet or their effect upon the health.
Midway between these two extremes
are they who do not condemn the corr

The Victorian girl, according to the
English authorities, was Il much better
mother than the modern feminine
athlete, because she wisely conserved
her store of vital and nervous energy
for the crisis Of motherhood instead OF
wasting it daily on the tennis court,
golf course or hockey field. This sur
prlsing assertion seems TO have made
serious impression upon England,
where there is now strong move
ment for milder school athletics for
girls.
But American physical culture ex-
perts, speaking for and 10 American
girls, have little sympathy with the
Britishers. Most of them are inclined
10 say absolute tommyrot," and thus
dismiss the subject.
But when one discusses the subject
he--or she--is apt to talk very
much like DR.. Dudley Sargent. lie is
physical director of Harvard. But lie
is also head Of the Sargent School
of Gymnastics in Cambridge. Mass,
which indicates that he probably

reproduced herewith--with the excep-
tiOn of that of Molla BjGrstedt NAL
lory, who is put In for good measure
are Of girls doing athletic stunts at
his school. DIR. Sargent says:
ut is unfortunate that such state
ments have just enough truth In them
so that they cannot be contradictcd
in their entirety. 1t Is true, of course,
that many women do have trouble at
childbirth, but It is unfair to say that
it is because Of athletics. Athletic
training is ideal for women; II dc.
vel0ps just the muscles Of the abb
domen and the lower part of the back
that she is compelled to use in this
crisis.
"Overindulgence, ovcrtraining--that
is another thing altogether. do not
believe IN that have fought ex-
cesses all my life. I do not believe
in the overtraining, for instance, that
leaves a boat crew in entire collapse
once the race is over.
II believe that these girls who
specialize in tennis, who play all the
time, all over the country. are the
ones who would be sure to have
trouble 10 the crisis Of motherhood.
Such women are tight, tense. keyed
mp all the time and muscle bound.
There is a vast difference, YOU know"
DR.. II. N. McCracken, president OF
.yasssr college, thinks that the objec-
ton Of the English educators to ath.
letics is based upon an inferiorlty
complex. Victorian ladies have lately
had to endure more scOrnful pity from
their modern granddaughters. Their
waists were pinched, they have been
told, their minds Inactive, their clothes
were clumsy and they we're physically
weak (witness the faintlng habit) for
lack of fresh air and exercise. "Ah,''
they reply at last, but We were bet,
