1t is beyond my small power to comprehend the
reason for the derogatory attitude of a modern world
toward the modern girl. l think the modern girl
is worth a dozen of her long-skirted, long-faced,
pale-lipped sisters of the s~traitlaced strata.
l am for her! l vote for her every time. I think
she is charming. l think, as you Americans say, that
she is a peach, a pippinl She is piquante. She is al
Turing. She is more modest in her frank, self-confdent
way than the rather silly young female who held the
center of the stage in the reign Of Victoria.

Packingtown Does Not Set the Fashion for Gold
Coast, but Vice Versa
By RABBI S. WISE of New York


The theater in America will be subjected to the most rigid censorship,
and that soon, unless it institutes immediate, drastic reforms. Either the
theater will cleanse itself, and at the earliest possible moment, " we will
rule it with the rod of censorship. This is true alike of the spoken drama
and the motion picture play.
The theater, at its best, is one of the great institutions of society. At
its worst, the theater is in danger of becoming such a menace to health Is
is the cesspool and its putpscent sewage, and that menace is now present
in some of the vile things that are being perpetrated in New York.
1t must be done for the sake of the young, for unfortunately society
is suffering today because of its acceptance of the maxim that youth must
and will have its fling. Some women have no sense of fitness and modesty
and only they can compete who Ire ready to be still more vulgar. AS a
consequence so-caled society comes to be in no small part a matter of COM
petition in semi-nudity and all that this means.
Packingtown does not set the fashion for the gold cost, but the gold
coast does set the fashion for those back of the yards and others like them
Inefable mischief is therefore wrought by those at the top of the social
ladder the evil does not come from the bottom.

hington.-Famine and plague in
Russia are under control, President
Harding has been informed by Secre-
tary Hoover in report on the use OF
the United States Grain Corporation
funds for relief work. The situation.
Mr.. Hoover said, promises to be much
better after the harvest, although it is
too early to determine whether Amer
lean relief work will be extended
Il believe" Mr.. Hoover said, this
effort has stemmed one Of the greatest
catastrophes that has followed the
war. There is deep feeling of graft
tude in the minds of the Russian peO-
pie and the results, am sure, will be
of lasting satisfaction to the American
people. Without it certainly many mil,
lions of people would have died of
starvation. and millions would have
persisted from the disorders and the
disease that would have followed
Mr.. Hoover reported that to July
1, 140 shiploads, totaling 7SS,S76 tons
Of food and medical supplies were pro-
vided for Russian relief, of which 1885,
449 tons were purchased through the
grain corporation and 500, 430 tons
through the American Relief Admins
tration. The total funds modified by
the relief administration for Russian
supplies, included the s19,300,000 au-
thorized by Congress from grain cor
poration accounts, was S59,49S,O0
American relief personnel at pres
ent, the secretary reported, comprises
about 200 Americans, with about So
900 Russians under their direction. In
addition to the American effort. about
100000 Russians are being supported
by the efforts of other nations of Eu-
rope, which have contributed about
100000 and skipped about $4,000
tons OF supplies.

FARM BUREAU
GROWING FAST
FARM MARKETING POPULAR A.
MoNG RICE GROWERS WHER-
EVER IT is EXPLAINED
FARMERS PUSHING IDEA
Meetings And Field Work Is Going
On In Many Parishes OF The State
And Is Successful.

Crowley-A resume of the first
week of the campaign put on by the
Louisiana farm bureau in the parishes
of tire Louisiana rice blet to explain
the rice contracts which are being
signed to organize a Cooperative Rice
Growers Marketing Association, shows
results which go beyond the expec,
tations of the organizers, leaders in
the movement report.
Fourteen meetings were held in AGA.
dia parish and goodly number of
contracts were signed. In a majority
of cases those who were present urged
that another meeting be held during
the present week and the various in
diyiduals volunteered to see the army
rice growers who failed to attend the
first meeting and insure their attend
ance this week.
In st. Landry parish, more than SO
per cent of all the rice growers have
signed the contracts, and indications
point to an 80 per cent sign-up as
soon as the remainder of the grow
ers are visited and given the opportu-
nifty to affiliate.
Vermillion parish is taking an active
interest, and has more than seventy
contracts signed already. Few meet.
tngs have been held here, but the
work has been accomplished largely
by visiting the growers on their own
farms, it was reported.
Iberia parish growers who have
signed the contract are donating their
time and automobiles and are obtain
ing the signatures of their neighbors
and friends. About thirty contracts
were singned in that parish during the
week.
Calcasieu is going strong. Reports
from that parish are to the effect
that the farmers are flocking to the
standard of the farm bureau plan of
organization. At Community Chapel,
where there are about fifty rice grow
ers, an 80 per cent sign-up has been
achieved. Nearly every grower in
the Iowa section is affiliated with the
farm bureau and the majority have
signed the rice contract.
Similar conditions prevail in La
fayette parish, it is said, and although
no definite work has been undertaken
In st. Martin, Evangeline, Allen and
Jeff Davis, prior to this time, the
growers are seeking the opportunity
to come in with those of the parishes
previously mentioned Plans being
formulated will give them this chance
during the current week.
Although it has been predicted that
It would be impossible to obtain, by
July 80, the 1900 signers necessary to
make this association operative this
year, the results have been surpris-
ing and present indications point to
the necessary number being signed
by the twentieth o. twenty-fifth Of
this month. A final result of 1000
signers by the close of the month is ex-
pected.
The campaign for the new organi-
zation will continue for the balance
OF this month and permanent organi-
cation will be effected as soon as
possible after the minimum of 1900
signatures have been obtained.
