women who need financial help to
enter the home, and already has
placed two there, who otherwise

infirmary.
Money for the work is obtained
through benefit parties given by the
club.

By NEA SerUice
NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-It is high
4 ' time that education turned
practical and taught the American
children a few simple things like
the price Of butter and eggs, and
what they should eat for lunch.
That is the opinion of DR.. Velma
Phillips, research worker at Co.
lumbia university. She has discov-
cred that boys and girls don't know
their food values-either in Galleries
or money.
They could learn a few things
about how to choose clothes, and
what TO do with their spare time.
DR.. Phillips gave QUESTIONABLE
to 227 boys and girls in the ninth,
tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades,
chosen at random from LOO stu
dents in a city high school.
The answers showed that they
know more about the bridge that
Caesar built across the Rhine than
they do about efficient purchasing.

Dear Jane Jordan-I have been out of
college two years. have had numerous
men friends of whom 1 have thought
much, but thus far am not married.
Several months ago met chap that !
like immensely and last week he pro-
posed TO me.
My folks like him, he is of good
reputation and I have met his family
and they seem to approve of me. but he
is two years younger than I am. Should
1 end the affair now, or let my heart
dictate? CAROLINE.
Dear Caroline-When people are
properly mated two years difference
in age, one way or the other, does
not particularly matter. People
used to think that it was better for
a man to marry woman younger
than himself. This opinion was
based on the belief that women age
more rapidly than men.
Those who married in the COS
when a difference in age was not
so apparent were apt to grow apart
in the 40s. A man of 40 still re-
garded himself as a dasaing young
fellow, whereas his wife definitely
was shelved.
However, women have changed. No
smart, modern female looks within
ten years of her honest to-goodnesS
age. Bobbed hair youthful dresses
and an alert mind keep many a
woman looking as young as her
daughters. Modern conveniences
and smaller families have taken
some of the back-breaking labor off

French Phones as Profit Makers.

Figures are presented to the Public
Utilities Commission by the telephone
company to show why the corporation
cannot, without undue loss Of revenue,
supply TO subscribers without extra
charge the newer styles Of equipment,
known generally as Trench phones"
The "dumb-bell type" Of combined re-
ceiver and transmitter, introduced q
few years ago. has become increasingly
popular. II Is now installed by the
company for an additional charge Of
twenty-five cents month. The sugges-
ton was made recently that this addi-
taonal charge should be eliminated. The
company reports TO the commission that
TO do 90, for the entire list Of sub
scribers, would reduce its net income
by 11s6. 0o0-to eschew other calcula-
ticns that are stated to the public In
somewhat confusing manner. The or
binary desk phone type now generally
Ia use costs the company s4.es, whereas

Naval Supply Bill
Passage Is Approved

From the Milwaukee Sentinel.
Thanks to Mr.. Hoover's intervention.
the naval supply bill was passed by the
Senate and the House. Most of the
$358,000,oo0 appropriated win 60 for
naval maintenance and the patching
and undermining of old warships, but
$1o,0oo,000 will apply on the new build.
ing program. An early start, although q
small one, is thus assured on the build
ing needful to bring the United States
somewhat near her stipulated parity
with Great Britain.
The $10,000,000 will be spent on 10
destroyers of 1900 tons each and one
1,050-ton destroyer leader.
Although the United States at pres
ent has greater destroyer tonnage than
any other nation, all of the l35 Ameri-
can ships Of this class viii have become
average before 1895, when naval build~
ing must end under the terms of the
London treaty. Great Britain, for whom
the treaty prescribes parity with the
United States in this classification, win
have 80 underage ships In 1885, even
II she authorizes no further building.
The 1880 tons of destroyers author
lied by the supply bill will not appear
very important beside Britain's 1855
tons In 1886, but we should be thank
ful that start will be made on build
ing-that the whole American building

amendment TO convince me that there
are no differences between men and
women, or that legislation cannot take
those differences into account" 1.-THE
criterion Of constitutionality is not
whether we believe the law to be for
the public good" IT should have my
doubts, as have them about this statute
but they would be whether the bill
that has to be paid for every gain.
although hidden as interstitial detri-
ment, was not greater than the gain
was worth: matter that it is not for
me to decide" II think appreciate
the objection to the law, but 1t appears
to me to present question upon which
men reasonably might differ and there
fore I am unable to say that the Con-
stitution of the United States prevents
the experiment from being tried"
Lotteries were thought useful adjuncts
OF the State century or so ago: now
they are believed to be immoral and
they have been stopped. Wine has been
thought good for man from the time
Of the Apostles until recent years. But
when public opinion changed it did not
need the eighteenth amendment, not
withstanding the fourteenth, to enable
State to say that the business should
end. What has happened to lotteries
and wine might happen to theaters in
some moral storm of the future, not
because theaters were devoted to public
use, but because people had come to
think that way"
"All life is an experiment" and JUS
tice Holmes has believed in permitting
the experiment to proceed in the be-
lief that Gertrude is not the test of
certainty. We have been cocksure
Of many things that were not true"
Life he has said, "is an end in
itself, and the only question as to
whether it is worth living is whether
you have had enough Of It,"
AT ninety, looking backward as he
Is forced to do on such occasions as
birthday anniversaries when everybody
insists on reminding him Of the event,
life must seem to have been exceed
ingly worth while. He has never shown
any signs Of having had enough of it.,
one OF many things for which his
country should be thankful.

At twenty-five cents month the COM
pany pays for the difference in cost in
seventeen months, with nineteen cents
over. After that the additional charge
for the new type of phone nets the
company just three dollars a year for
each instrument. In I'VE years the
company will make a profit of 5000
upon the additional cost Of the French
phone. With 10000 Of the new phones
in use out Of 16s,4s0, which is the
present number in service, the five-year
profit would be about 81 ,641, 900.
If the extra charge per month is to
cover the extra cost Of the improved
equipment, and only that, it should be
maintained only for the period neces-
sary to make up the difference between
the two purchase rates. Or else it should
be reduced considerably to make the
period Of repayment longer. At ten
cents a month, or $12O a year, the
higher cost Of the instrument would be
regained in about forty-seven months,
or, considering interest, in approximate
ly four years. Which is not an unreal
sonable length Of time to pay for capital
equipment.
Perhaps the additional figures re-
quested by the Public Utilities Commits
sion on this subject will relate to the
problem that may be thus stated: Is the
additional or improved equipment
charge to be regarded as a mere reim-
bursement or as the basis of heavy
additional net revenue for the corpora
ton? At the twenty five-cent rate Of
extra charge the company is finding
the new equipment rich source Of
profits within short time after the
new installation.
