Moroccan aIrs Marry Early.

In Morocco, as In most Mohammedsn
countries. the native girls are married
at an extremely early age, often be.

merely consist of a friendly talk be
tween the woman's husband and her
father.
An arrangement Is made by which
she returns to her parents, the hus-
band often paying compensation to the
father. The same woman will prob
ably soon be married again TO another
Moor, and will take 1t all as q matter
Of course.
Moorish weddings are very interest

puted, but She Was Undoubt,
eddy True "chum."

The young principal Of a Hoosier
school had to borrow some money In
a hurry or some Of his debtors would
notify the school board Of his indebt-
edness to them. He went to bank
and was told It would be all right II
one OF the teachers Of his building
would go his security. He went to
the oldest and most faithful one In
the building.
While they were talking, the princi-
pals young wife, respondent In fine
raiment, with her best friend, the
mayors wife, came through the room
on her way TO her husbands office.
She gave the teacher a condescending
nod and told her husband she wished
to see him In his office. With an
apology on his lips the young fellow
followed the snobby wife.
For minute the little old maid
hesltated, then she signed the note.
and started one of the pupils toward
his office before another snubbing
from his wife would make the work
of indorslng that note harder. After
all, friend should be more loyal than

Drunken Drivers.

Public sentiment against drunken
automobile drivers is strong and ris-
ing. The chief OF police has said that
a drunken man with an automobile is
more dangerous than drunken man
with a gun. There is no doubt as to
that. It is obvious. A drunken auto
driver Is likely to do more damage
than a drunken pistol-toter. and no
clemency should be shown to either.
A Police Court Judge, speaking few
evenings ago before the Mid-City
Citizens Association, advocated the
conflscation Of the automobile driven
by a drunken man. He said that with
in the year more than 600 cases had
come before the Police Court OF per-
sons charged with driving cars while
under influence Of liquor, and there
were fifty-nine Of these cases last
month. He said that the drunken
driver is a potential murderer. and
must be dealt with accordingly. This
is strong language. but it is justified.
All citizens worthy Of the title will
agree with the judge. It is within the
power of the police and the judges Of
the courts to deal severely with Of.
tenders Of this class, and the power
should be so exercised that every per-
son convicted Of driving a car while
drunk shall be punished in a way pro-
after barred from driving a machine.

The Washington committee Of the
Garden Club Of America plans to save
nearby Towering dogwood from ex.
tirpation. Perhaps this or another
organization may take up the ques-
tion OF holly. 1t is not an easy matter.
The city is the market. 1t would be
hard to forbid man to cut holly on
his own land for sale. To forbid the
sale of holly in city would work
some hardship on men and run
counter to q Christmas custom. The
first seller Of holly gets a pitifully
small price for 1t, but little extra sill.
yer at Christmas has a merry jingle.
The transporter and the local seller
try to make something. They are In.
terested in the present and not in the
distant future. They have no thought
Of conservation Of holly.
So 1t is with mountain laurel" So
It Is with those members OF the club
moss tribe which are variously called
crowsfoot, ground pine. running pine
and Christmas green.
Some wild things are having hard
time. There has been developed, or
enforced. public consideration for
birds and beasts, but interest in plants
Is not extensive. One of the argu.
ments for the extension Of the Ma
tional Botanic Garden and the crea-
tion of a national arboretum is that all
plant types may find in them q home

is under way, and time will come when
there will be no holly and no laurel"

No Dealings With the Soviet.

Secretary Hughes, with the full in
dorsement of the President, has re-
piled to the Russian soviet govern
ment's overtures for negotiation in
terms that cannot be misunderstood.
Russia must first establish her good
faith before she will be admitted even
to the outer chamber of relationship,
where she may ask for recognition.
She must restore the conflscated prop
erty Of American citizens and repeal
her decree repudiating her obligations
to this country and recognize those
obligations. She must abandon the
propaganda directed at the overthrow
Of the institutions Of this country.
There can be no negotiations for
recognition save on the basis Of estab-
lished good faith on the part Of the
soviet government. Tchitcherin, in his
note to the President, indicates that
there must be mutually" in claims
settlements and in the. question Of
non-intervention in governmental af-
fairs. Secretary Hughes. in his brief
rejoinder, declines to enter upon any
dealing on such a basis. Russia must
clean her hands before they can be
taken even in negotiation.
Unquestionably, back Of Mr.. Hughes
brief reference to the matter Of soviet
propaganda in this country is evidence
that cannot be challenged. 1t has been
heretofore indicated that the State De-
partment was fully informed on this
subject. So 1t may be expected that in
good season, perhaps upon the request
of the Senate, where the subject is
likely to be debated at an early day,
full information may be presented
that will completely justify the Secre-
: tary's refusal to consider Russia as a
! potential negotiator for recognition
until the continued propa ganda to
overthrow the institutions Of this
country" is abandoned.
There will be a general feeling Of
relief that the United States will not
accept the soviet overtures for nego-
tiation. Doubt of the good faith Of the
Moscow government is generally prev
alent in this country. Mr.. Hughes
gives expression to that doubt in
terms that admit of no discussion.
