They like to be relieved of responsibilities Tn fact I wouldn't be a bit surprised If in another fifty years the men, through sheer relief. would turn over the affairs of the universe to be con ducted by worlen-and I'm almost ready to say that I believe the uni verse would move along more smooth ly under such conditions!
 fI don't believe we can do too much for the boys who went to war They deserve our fullest appreciation And I certainly pledge myself to them I'm for them, bobbed hair paint, rouge, short skirts and everything."
 And then Miss Thomas smiled, reached for her nail file, took a male voter by the hand and calmly led him into her den of beauty.

 Those are just few blanks that will be included in the platform now being constructed by Miss Pearl Thomas, .twenty-three-year mani curist of this city who has set the politicians scratching their shaggy head over her announced intention or running for the State Senate on the Republican ticket.
 Miss Thomas two years ago won first prize in 6 hotly contested bath ing review here.

Expect Great Railway Boom

Detroit. April 20 - Establishment of a great industrial center near Pom tiac, 26 miles north of Detroit, in which would be grouped two or more of the larger Detroit automobile plants and accessory factories from all parts of the country, is seen here as a possibility following announce ment by the Grand Trunk Railway that it is ready to lower the grade of it's tracks along Dequindre street, from Jefferson avenue to Hale street, in Detroit, a distance of about one and one half miles at a cost of S4,- 100000.
 The grade improvements, it is said here. will drive the opening wedge for what promises to be one of the largest railway improvements plans within recent years.
 Officials of the railroad company. the Detroit Board of Commerce and certain automobile companies here have carried on discussions for the last year that included a plan for providing of an interurban line be- tween this city and the proposed new industrial center so that Detroit workmen might have fast transporta- tion 10 the point near Pontiac It is declared decision as to expansion Of the plan has been awaiting start on the DeQuindre street project.
 Due to high taxes certain automo- bile companies here have expressed 8 desire to leave the corporate limits of the city of Detroit and remove to some other point Local capitalists have acquired a 1,0oO-acre tract near Pontiac as the site for a part Of the new industrial project. It is said the work of moving one or more plants will be considered as soon as trans portation facilities for the workmen are available.
 Local fnanciers say that if the proposition becomes a reality the standing of southeastern Michigan as an automobile manufacturing district would be enhanced because of the bringing of accessory plants into this part of the state.
 The Grand Trunk is planning to erect a large terminal station here in the future and to make Detroit the center of east and west traffic on the systems Through traffic on the road now goes through the Port Huron Sarnia tunReE Completion of the new Wildsor-Detroit bridge, actual work on which is to start this year. would make this possible. it was statad-

There are institutes all over the country which thought they'd have to close their doors when prohibition came, and today they are enIarg1ng their quarters to handle the former drinkers of light wines and beer.
 There is no reason why women should not enter politics. Men want them every place else-why not in public office? The only men I've ever heard say that women have no brains are those who are married to wo-- men who have enough brains to save sufficient money out of household ex- penses to buy Christmas presents without demanding additional funds.

 Bridgeport, and Norwalk, were in cluded.
 The evidence was snappy and at times spicy. Especially tense was the testimony for a moment when Gonch advised Attorney A. L. De Laney to tell the court the truth" Judge Isaac Wolfe and Gonch's at ultaneously told Gonch to shut up. He shut. A moment before he had told Delaney that the attorney didn, t know how to ask questions. Gonch knew how to answer them, however, and many of his answers caused ex- clamations of surprise and disgust to escape from Mrs Gonch, the defend ant, with a sound like that of an air brake on the South Dakota central
 It developed that some of the quar- rels were because the defendant thought her husband was giving at tentions to other women. Others were over her drinking. Gonch ad- mitted, that in the old days when it was the custom l used to bring home a can of beer occasionally ' Others were because Gonch claimed his wife never arose until Il bells, and that he had to get up, wash and dress three children, and cook break fast for them.
 ''We didn't have a cooked meal once a week, I don't believe, and when we did it was fried potatoes and pork chops. The treatment of the children Gonch claimed caused most of the trouble. While he exhibits a small scar on his hand, said to be from cut administered by his wife while they sojourned in New Brunswick, he said this was nothing as compared to the children. ''Why one boy has his face disfigured for life from a blow she administered, and another of the children she branded with a red hot iron"
 ''Why they could tell you all about our quarrels if I wanted to bring them to court, and" Here he was interrupted by Judge Wolfe. Gonch denied being arrested for aSSaulting his wife, denied being in wrong with the Middlesex Traction company of New Jersey, but claimed that a charge of dishonesty against him, made by his wife, had caused his dismissal, that the charge had been disproven, and that he went back to work. Later he worked on the cars in Philadelphia, and denied that he was dismissed there Norwalk, where he now resides, he was employed for nine years. Now he makes his living 19 days in the spring and IS days in the fall, mak- ing book at the Empire track He denied ever attempting to sell a book in Connecticut.

Is Classic Center Of Old
 Religion

Tokio, April 2O.-Nara, one of the ancient Japanese cities which the Prince of Wales will visit on his tour of Japan as guest of the governme ent, is a classic center of Shinto worship and was the first capital of the na- ton. Much of the building and beau tifying begun in A. D. 709, the "GoI- den Age of Japan," is still intact.
 The great Kasuga Park conveys the impression of an English manor with its lordly pines and graceful crypto- merias, interspersed with ancient cherry trees and rows of naples, be- heath whose shade hundreds of deer may be seen at all seasons. During the time of the Tokugawa Shogun- was punishable by death and while no such penalty is meted out today, any injury to these animals is severely dealt with. The deer seem to know it and make friendly advances to all visitors.
 During the early days of Nara prosperity, the Todaiji. one of the seven great temples, was the head of Buddhism in Japan and the buildings covered some 20 acres It was rich ly endowed with a domain of near ly 25,000 acres of rice and grain fields supporting a population of 5000 per sons who labored in its service.
 Of all it's g1orieS there today re- main but few, chief among them be- ing the Great South Gate, Nandai Mon; the great Hall of Buddha and the ancient and most interesting old shrine called Kaidan-in.
 The Great South Gate was built in 752 A. D. and remodeled in 1199. On either side are two gigantic figures of Mo or the Deva Kings carved by Tankei and his pupil Unkei- With the two stone lions close by, excellent specimens of 18th century Chinese sculpture but grotesQue to modern eyes. they are listed and protected as National Treasures
 The Nara-no-Daibutsu, the vast bronze Buddha cast in 749 A. D. is the largest of the kind in Japan, if not in the world, being 53 1-2 feet in height.
 The Kaidan-in is remarkable for it's unusual construction and arrange ment inside-series of platforms ris- ing one above the other to support the images of the Deva Kings. Indra and Brahma, which are said to be among the best examples of the art Of Nara era and also are counted among the "Na tiona1 Treasures"

Giants Infield Puts HurIers
 To Fore

New oYrk, April 2G-Quite some few of the boys have condenneea t!io pitching staff of the New ork dlahts made inc Giants an Eff club on that particular score and are inclined TO lift a journalistic eyebrow at lile chances of the McGraw entry to re- peat.
 And they may be as right as rat poison. The Giant staff mos certainly is a spotty-looking thing just now Toney seems to have lost his stun Douglas is always uncertain, ana the brothers Barnes have yet to proNe that they are everything that the kindly critics claim for them. Jess. the older of the two. has been an over-rsgted pitcher for some years We candidly believe.
 However, one point is being over looked, to wit:
 With that wonderful infield of Kelly, Frisch. Bancroft and Groh roaming at large over the adjacent terrain, a Giant pitcher will not have deed, it is possible for a very ordf- nary pitcher to win 20 games a season with such an outfit behind him.
 A case in point is the memorable New Cincinnati series of 1919. On that occasion Sallee. Reuthre, EI1er and Ring were made to appear as having pitched wonderful ball: that.is if you judged their perform
 
 Groh'S Work Brilliant.
 What actually happened vas that Heinie Groh gave an exhibition at third base that would have redounded to the credit of a butterfly net. Time after time he came up with eXraordi- nary stops and throws, breaking up rallies with Giant base runners tear ing for home. Groh had more to do with the winning of that se~ies, and perforce, the National LeaGJ cham pionship, than any other man on the payroll of the Cincinnati club.
 He held up the pitchers and made them look better than they actually were. When a man pitches a shutout you forget, forthwith. the fact that often he is saved by a species of par Tor magic on the defense.
 We are reminded that many old baseball men gave more credit to the great Cub infeld of Chance. Evers. Tinker and Steinfeldt than they did to the pitchers. barring Mordecaf Brown. In fact, it is claimed by some that Overall, Reulbach and Pfeister would have been rated as or dinary pitchers if it hadn't been for the foolproof defense of that re- markabIe infield.
