MEN MAY PLAY GOLF
ALL DAY LONG

The government made the discov-
cry first, but retail stores have not
been slow to profit by recent infor-
nation, unearthed by a national sur
vey. 1t seems that women today
make up between So per cent and 80
Per cent of the purchasing power in
the United States.
Moreover the ladies, it should be
known, not only constitute this tre-
mendous purchasing force, but re-
search brings to light their tremend-
Gus influence on the purchases made
directly by men.
Thus certain motor cars are pur-
chased directly by the masculine
head of the family not because as he
may believe he has all byhimself
made up his mind but because one
or more feminine heads have inves-
tigated the motor market, sat behind
this and that steering wheel, Aalked
to this and that mechanic.
Likewise the average man doesn't
investigate the textile market and
decide he wants cast-iron shirts or
pin tucked pajamas. But his wife
VI nOLnGl WIN SlAlAo oOuAANlg oCAnA-
technical information at her clubs,
at department stores lectures and
from fashion publications, guides
him tactfully toward such new de-
velopments as durened cotton or a
new kind of automobile upholstery.
1t has thus come to pass that
prominent middle western women's
speciality shop has actually opened a
mems furnishings department-nOt
particularly with the thought of in
triguing the gentlemen thence but
because it will save the ladies the
trouble of going elsewhere to make
complete family purchases. The de-
partments consists of suspenders,
socks, shirts, ties and the like, and
is perhaps but a stepping stone to
the day when out of business hours
the gentlemen may spend every wax
ing moment on the golf course or at
baseball games.

VARIETY IN MEALS

The matter of variety and contrast
in the texture and flavor of the foods
combined in one meal is not always
given sufficient thought. Serve some
thing crunchy like toast or Drowned
crumbs on a scalloped dish, some
thing soft, as a white sauce or Gus
tard, something crisp and fresh, like
lettuce or cold slaw, to give variety
in texture. For variety in flavor
some foods should be bland or mild,
like potatoes or bread; some should
have a pronounced flavor, as in the
case of rare steak, roast lamb, ham,
or cheese, or some of the vegetables
such as cauliflower, cabbage, onions,
green peppers. There should also
be something sour in itself, like to-
mato or pickles, or like spinach OF
beets, something that is ordinarily
served with vinegar, or salad with
French dressing. Sweet flavor is
usually provided in the dessert, or it
may be introduced elsewhere, as in
candied sweet potatoes, or as jelly
with meat. The five food groups
should also be represented-veg
tables and fruit, cereal or starchy
foods, efficient protein foods, fats,
and sugars. The relative proportions
of foods chosen from these groups
should supply sufficient protein of
the right kind, calOries, minerals,
and Vitamins.

REASON By Ff aAaDIs

HEREAFTER the Indiana parole board will not give
Il to the newspapers the names of prisoners who
have been paroed saying it is necessary to keep their
prison service secret in order that they might find
employment.
We sympathize with the boards desire to help
those who want to stage comeback, but question
the wisdom OF their program.
The very act of concealing something is fraudulent
and does not go hand in hand with determination
to reform; one not be truthful and live lie at
one and the same time.
The man who tries to button up such secret
must go about with wolf gnawing at his vtals and
it will devour him in short time.
BY concealment he may be able to get the job
but every day he will be afraid that somebody will
come into the establishment, recognize him and end
his career
The pressure of constant dread is such that it
pes many fugves to surrender they finding it easier
to pay the penalty than to dodge every time door
opens.
TT is better to go with clean hands and tell the
whole story, and incidentally this is the moral duty
of those who released the prisoners, since secrecy
hands lemon to the employer from whom the
prisoner asks favor
1t seeks to build reformation fraud and this
does not work
If the parole board is willing to turn a man loose
that board should be willing also to go to the en-
ployer and stand good for that man, and so should
the trial Judge the prosecuting attorney and other
officials who recommend the parole
The fact that he knows that such people
are standing behind him will help make good
if there's grain of manhood in him.
We have in mind certain judge who always said
to the he sent to the penitentiary: st i'm
posing this sentence because you have compelled ME
to do it, but I your friend and when you get out
come to me and will get you job"
nNE after another those prisoners to see that
" judge when their time was up and he would
look into their cases. then take them to some
ployer and tell all about it and, standing good for
the prisoners fidelity ask the employer to give the
chance.
The result wonderful Every of them we
believe, justified the faith reposed in him.
OF course. there are some behind the bars, just as
there in front of the bars who could not be
trusted in a thousand years, but it is easy to dis
tinguish between the deserving and the Others
Let them tel the truth come clean, and most of
them viii make good, but not with horrible secret

Bio Ger and Better Prisons

Have you picked out your federal prison cell and
made your reservation, there will be no difficulty
about housing you when your time comes?
Listen to the testimony of Attorney-General
Mitchell before congress-
Mr.. Mitchell: Our prison population has increased
tremendously. Our prisons being overcrowded
more and more. We have had to borrow from the
war department the disciplinary barracks at Leaven
worth and crowd that full of prisoners.
For example, at Anderson our 1880 appropriation
for the women's refoTmatory was based on an eStl-
mate of 300 prisoners and think the actual number
is largely in excess of that At Chicothe reforma
tory lust in the course of construction with nominal
capacity of 1900 We have than 1000 prisoners,
and the foundations of the institution are hardly laid
We are busy now trying to borrow Camp Custer to
take care of the overflow. -. -
Representative Tinkham: May ask you to tell
us what is the cause of all that tremendous
increase?"
Mr.. Mitchell: During the last twenty years there
have been four statutes passed that bring about the
incarceration of more prisoners than any other laws
we have-the original prohibition act, the Harrison
narcotic act the Mann and the Dyer act, relat-
ing to transportation of automobiles in interstate
commerce.
The striking thing about it is that the federal
pr.a.l problem today is the result of four statutes
enacted within the last twenty years. by which con-
gress has put the government into new fields OF
criminal prosecution"
