frock or the myriad-colored reflection
OF diamante.
SO lovely are these new white eve
ming wraps that some women who
must make a single evening wrap do
for all occasions have chosen them.
A celebrated French actress has been
wearing a real white ermine evening
wrap trimmed with white fox collar
and cuffs, and more than one woman
who has seen this with admiration
has had an exact replica made from
white Chinese rabbit, which answers
the purpose quite as well. A less
usual white ermine evening wrap
worn by fashionable woman in this
country has beige satin lining and
an enormous collar of mink. Mink
in this case proved to be much more
becoming near the face than white
fox, which IS the usual selection.

Brooklyn, n. Y.
When ones inherent religious in
stincts fail to conform to the formal
doctrines of the faith what IS the indi-
vidual to do? Please answer me, for
am in great distress.
Answer-Apply the Pauline precept:
Prove all things, hold fast that which
is good Acquire for yourself the
knowledge of what is either right or
wrong, beautiful or ugly, useful or
futile, comforting or distressing. Get
below formal beliefs to the motives in
which they originate, the truths they
are meant to express and the objects
to which they are committed.
Surely the numerous varieties of
doctrine arising out of Christian ex-
perience should supply you with some
dependable varieties which Will satisfy
your religious cravings.
Not few people seem unable to
differentiate between a sharp spasm
of theological indigestion and the com
plete abandonment Of all faith. Yet
at the bottom of the darkest pit of
doubt it is still possible to prefer the
real to the false and the clean to the
foul. Make your preferences upon the
apostolic principle already quoted, and
you may yet be all the stronger in
thought, feeling and purpose for your

THAT DAMP DRY
LAW AMENDMENT

A few days ago a man in Great
Falls, who for years had been a
slave to intoxicants and had made
home an earthly hell for his wife
and children, was shot to death
by the f-ear-crazed wife and moth
er. The unfortunate man went
home. as he had often done be-
fore, insane from the effects of
booze in some form. This time
he declared his intention of kill
ing the whole family. He flour
ished a long, murderous, razor
edged knife in proof of his pur-
pose. The wife, in defense of her
children seized a revolver she had
kept for such an emergency and
shot him full of holes. She did
we'll, not a word of blame attaches
to her. This unfortunate man did
not bring this horrible situation
about alone. He had able CO.
operation from thousands of peo-
pie all over the country-boot-
leggers, distillers, blind-pigg1ers,
s~cofflaws, officials of every rank,
jokers who grin at law violation,
and those who insist that condi-
tions are worse than ever, and are
glad of it.
There have always been viola
tors of the laws against murder,
rape and theft, and those who re-
.spected them. There have always
been "wets" and "drys," there
probably always will be, amend
ment or no amendment. This is
because there are some who can
hold to a sane view and e more
real JOY on the dry side, and
some who let nothing stand be-
tween them and their animal
tastes and desires, their avarice
or their Unsuitable quest for
thrill.
But the "dry" view is gaining.
It was gaining before the 18th
amendment was enacted, it has
continued to gain since. Money
may bring notifications of the
law but an honest popular vote
will never repeal it. Let the
"drys" hold and gain their ground
with courage and clear-visioned,
clear-brained purpose and conf
dence. The "wets" will gradual
Nv destroy themselves, just as the
open saloons defeated their own
purpose. They will never be al
lowed to butcher the whole human

It's UNFAIR COMPETITION

1Newspapers, especially the
smaller ones of the nation, are
lust now organizing a campaign
to persuade Uncle Sam to refrain
from printing return addresses on
stamped envelopes at cost, IN
competition with the little print
ers. Under existing conditions,
Uncle Sam hires statesmen in the
persons of postal employees to o
licit the business, write up the
orders, transmit them to the
printer, collect the bill and de-
liver the printed job at the con-
sumer's office.
"Why the smaller newspapers
alone should be subjected to that
kind of competition from their
own government cannot be ex-
planned, and there is prospect that
the printing service that the gov
eminent has rendered practically
free to users of stamped envel-
opes, will be abolished by this ses-
sion of Congress.
"Other business enterprises that
are perennially threatened with
government competition below
cost. if taxes and overhead are
calculated, should join with the
newspapers in the effort to get
Uncle Sam out of the printing
business for the general public,
in competition with private en-
terprises; and thus strengthen the
principle of combining government
activities to the functions of gov
eminent Santa Rosa, Calf,

the verified report of a strike of
dock hands in Leningrad? A group
of Russian workers, while loading
a ship, went on strike for higher
wages. The government rushed
a detachment of Red soldiers to
the wharf and drove the strikers
back to work. Instead Of getting
their wage increase the workmen
were compelled to labor for rs
hours without pay.
"In '~capitalistic' America, labor
has established its inalienable
right to collective bargaining
The striking wage Garner in this
country is beyond the reach of
government or law, as long as he
resorts to no violence. This is
the sort of protection labor en-
joys under a government which
soviet leaders call 'capitalistic.'
american labor has its griev-
ances, but, at its worst, its lot
was better than that of Russian
labor under communism. Such
tyranny as that at Leningrad was
never known in the United States.
Than class government or COM
munism, there is no greater ty-
ranny." Glass government by any
class is the foe Of liberty.

SOME DIFFERENCE
I'M SERVICE

So accustomed are people of our
country to continuous telephone
service, night or day, Sunday OF
holiday, that it is difficult for Am
orleans to appreciate that this
condition is not typical of tele.
phone service throughout the
world. AS a matter of fact, con-
tinuous service is exceptional in
most foreign countries. Outside
of national capitals and largest
cities, all-night service is quite
unusual. In Germany and Bel
GUM less than 5 per cent Of tele-
exchanges give uninter-
rupted service; in France less than
1 per cent. Still another feature
in European TELEPHONE service, IS
a luncheon interval between -
and 2 p. M, when many exchanges
are closed.-Exchange.
