In the last few years, what is call- ed the retail business center of New York has shifted from Sixth avenue, Fourteenth and Twenty-third streets, to Fifth avenue above Thirtieth street. (More lately the center of the shirt waist and cloak making and of other like industries has been shifting from its old’ region down town to the side streets adjoining Fifth avenue in the new retail district. , ‘At noon the men and women that worked in these industries strolled | ‘in Fifth avenue. Pretty soon it became crowded with them. They looked into the store windows and obstructed, the view of possible buyers. It was held to be disagreeable for fashionable women alighting from their carriages to make their way into the stores through dense crowds of working people. So the storekeepers started a cru-| sade against the cloak houses. They called it the “Save New York!" move- ment and it got plenty of support— in some quarters. | ‘Before long, by pressure and what amounted to a boycott they won out. The manufacturera agreed to keep their establishments well away from the sacred precincts of retail trade, to the end that their workers need not annoy the fastidious. It is entirely likely that New York is the only city in the country where this kind of thing could happen, and even for New York it seems to be going pretty far. If we ate: to recognize the principle that certain streets are not for the use of’ persons that work, it looks as if, we might on the same princi- ple set apart regions, conveyances and places of amusement for differ-| ent classes, according to their oc- cupation. HOW CAME THEY SO? Those 500 women who visited Rev. Paul Smith in his church at San Fran- cisco to protest against his vice cru- sade,’seem to have rather stumped him, cornered him in the matter of argument, as it were. When asked how many of them would work for $10 per week, the girls laughed and not one of them raised a hand. “A girl can’t live on Jess than $20 per week,” declared their leader, a Mrs. Gamble, who said she'd been running a house for eight years. Then the meeting resolv. ed itself into a denunciation of soci- ety and the men who ruin or patron- ize the girls. The unfortunate girls have much of the argument against both society and the men. Low wages and evil home environment are disastrous in many cases, but a considerable num- ber of these girls are what they are through their own inherent weakness and nothing else, and sympathy for such of them is largely misplaced. Ten dollars a week may not be high ‘wages, but it is not starvation wages, even in these times, and there’s some- thing radically wrong from the start about a girl who prefers the fate of the common harlot to an honest, de- cent life on $10 a week. There are tens of thousands of decent wage- earning girls who are living on $10 per week, or less. They prefer their self-respect, decent living and inde- pendence to flashy dress, auto rides, wine suppers and the tinsel of fast ‘They: work hard and enjoy ‘no js, but consider their struggles satisfaction of vanity that the career of sexual slavery can give. “How many of you have children?” jasked ‘Rev. Smith of the 500, and three-quarters of the women raised; their hands. Had he then got a truth- ful answer to the question, “How! many of you risked motherhood with your eyes wide open?” he might not have ‘been so surprised at all that waste of motherhood, Insufficient wages is altogether a ; curse and we can trace a whole lot | j of our evils to it, and the cost of liv-| ing is awful, but we can’t yet base | judgment of society, or strength of | female virtue, or man’s seductiveness upon the choice of the sophisticated and $10 per week. Life has its ups and downs, where- in it differs from the high cost of liv- ing. TAKING IT FROM CHILDREN. | Unele Sam seems to be mighty par ticular, not to say captious about his prohibition, Congress indicates its | | | willingness to have the District of Co- | Iumbia, Hawaii and Alaska “bone dry” | around to Porto and may later get Rico, the Danish West Indies and | the Philippines. | Sort of taking the stuff away trom the children. And did you ever notice | that when father becomes convinced | that a certain stuff is bad for the] children, he finally gets to thinking that it isn't good for father? | Bryan is strong for peace, but against its enforcement.

CANT You UNDERSTAND? I WANT HIM To PRACTICE BUT HAVE HM Do IT DURING THE DAY When 'M NOT: Home SIMPLY STARTLING. Those internal revenue fellows at Washington certainly can find things to startle folks. ‘They now report that, notwithstand- ing all the prohibition legislation, | Uncle Sam's revenue from whiskey | was greater in 1916 than in any year since 1909. Again, in 1916, seven billion more| cigarettes paid taxes than in 1915, the total for 1916 being 25,232,960,928. | The increase is attributed to the growing use of the “coffin nails” by! women. Clearly, if Uncle wants more money | for preparedness, one way to get it is| to, put -bigger taxes on liquor and cigarettes, 30 BELOW 1S FORECAST (Continued from page one) noon. ere was, however, no no- ticeable rise in the mercury late this afternoon.

Even then, he should see that the marriage is not put off too long. A pretty girl onee had one of these laggard lovers of whom she thought a great deal, But pop the question he would not. Her aunt advised her not to waste time with him, At an after+ noon affair, to which she had gone with girl friends, she met a new ads mirer, who escorted her home. They encountered the old beau. His jeal- ousy was straightway aroused. The sight of her with another showed him how dear she was to him, The ques- tion faced him as to what Hfe would be without her if another won her, He called that evening and lost no ume in asking her to be his wife, dey claring that an open confession was) good for the soul. He hud been too sure of her and because of that came near losing her. The wise girl does not devote all of her time to one caller, She treats him as she finds him—simply as a friend— until he has given her reason to be as- sured otherwise. There would \be no long-drawn-out courtships which end in parting if girls pursued this plan. Men are at fault in calling upon one girl steadily when they have no serious intentions of matrimony. If they call upon many young women, making no secret of the fact, no one maiden ts apt to build her hopes upon them, only to be disappointed at last. (Copyright, 1916.)
