SEATTLE STAR _ Trivate Wxchange Main Sao. PES NOWTHWsT LRAGUD OF N J ing tall leascd wire mews service of the United Vrese Kinter 7 m 5 % mall, out of © per mon. up lished Daily by The Star Publiani — oe Pictares in the Homes Art, one of the best gifts to man, never was intended to Be exclusively a luxury of the rich, Like literature; it is the common heritage of all The Rrowning settlement of London is operating a plan for putting v s of art of the best sort into homes of peo- ple unable to Reproduce ry them 18 of Watts, Burne-Jones, Millais, Rosetti and other great s have been collected, put into simple, fit- ting frames, 3 are loaned to members of the Workingmen’s Picture Gallery at the rate of a penny a month for each two pictures borrowed. At the end of the month these may be exchanged } Anything which gives genuine and wholesome happiness among the people whose pleasures are few, and makes bare homes more cheerful and attractive, certainly is a mighty od influence for good. i The part which art has played in the education and ad- vancement of the human family toward a common under- standing of itself cannot be measured It is a universal language which all can understand, and the message it conveys goes to the heart as well as to the mind. It enlarges the view of life and enables us to under stand aspirations, struggles and passions that are tremendous forces in the world and in individual lives. One's real nature may be known better frqm the pictures he loves than from the books he likes, becaqse art love is less of the mind and more of the soul, So powerful is the influence of good pictures fh their constant force of suggestion that ig argeen nt are learning to hang them in prison cells as a most valuable element in discipline and reform. The Slaughter of the Innocents If a single case of bubonic plague were reported in the eity of Chicago, all the immense resources of that great and wealthy town would be put at the disposal of the health department. There would be scores of sanitary guards; there would be organized squads on rat hunting expeditions ; there would be most rigid quarantine. And every citizen would be terribly aroused and terribly $s. Now it so happens that last year in Chicago 59,000 babies were born. Ten thousand of them died—and the great ma- jority of them died becatse of impure milk supply. d Think of it. Enough babies to populate a town sacri- ficed on the altar of greed. There was not much excitement about it. The council did not make special appropriations for the war on the ie. Isn't it about time that we stop talking about race sui- ride and talk a little more about race murder? What happened in Chicago happens in every city in Bhe country. Everywhere the lives of children—and many mups—are being sacrificed needlessly and wantonly. werywhere the innocents are being slaughtered at a rate that would appall us if we were at war with some other nation. We speak of peace and prosperity, but there is no REAL, peace and no REAL, prosperity so long as we are so callous e to prefer dollars to human lives. - Observations IF LITTLE Senator Burton of Ohio, who is camping @n Teddy's trail, will come out of the underbrush, not much gotice will be taken of it. AND while the dear powers were setting on those ceeen eggs, trying to hatch doves of peace, that little tam rooster, Montenegro, went out and spurred old Turkey to beat the band! BOSTON university professor has discovered that the trend from farm to city is because of the desire “to escape endless dull routine.” But most of us city fellows are in endless duli routine up to our cars.

Bah! That was got up *way back in 1872 by a fellow who had just invented breath lozenges. SO TOM RYAN gave only $77,000 toward Judson Har- mon’s campaign. Ah! those good old days when Standard Oi! did the things for the welfare of the people in Ohio are gone forever! “HE'S very fond of young women” is the description of lohn Warren, missing ex-chief of San Diego, Cal., detectives. if you run across a man who is very fond of young women, please notify San Diego. SEATTLE postoffice is pre- paring for parcels post service, fwhich begins January 1. A majority in congress succeed- ed in getting the parcels law through, but you notice how that last concession was made in not having it go into ef- fect until after the Christmas rush, toring, is today on his way back to work at Washington. A few months more of “grind” and then he can have all the golfing and motoring and leis- ure time he wants. OCCASIONALLY a New York jury isn’t nearly as re- spectfiul to officials as most everybody else is. The jury has convicted Police Lieut. Becker of murder, TAFT, after two months of wacation and golfing and mo- WILL the slanderbund give an honest reason why any- fone should seck to fight ouz family matters through the newspapers during the heat of a political campaign, when that same person failed to fight it out, only a few months before, in a divorce action in court, where it was directly a matter of vital interest to the family and especially to four innocent children? THE GANG of political pirates knows that Taft is hope- lessly beaten. So they have dropped him in this state and are trying to save their hides by pushing thelr puppet gov- ernor back into office through a pile of money and slander. IN some parts of the state the standpat machine has started stories to the effect that Bob's eldest daughter has to work in a cheap restaurant to make a living. Wonder which one of the daughters it can be—Willie, Allan, Donald or Robert? i ONE reader of The Star telephoned this morning to ask wliy no evidence was presented yesterday to meet the charge that Hodge swore he was a citizen of British Columbia when he secured his marriage license. Because, dear reader, it was one of the lies too silly to merit attention. The Canadian marriage laws do not provide for any sort of an affidavit when one takes out a license to marry, ay a “A VERY CLOSE, Civillan—-Did you ever do any fighting at close range?

Have stopped in. most of the toughest lodging houses of this city, frequented cafes, prowled the streets In the down town dis- tricts at night, and can say with positive truth that there are les signs of lawlessness, common v etc.,, than in any y of the North west. As far as Seattle's purity squad is concerned, I have seen nothing of them, even should there be such. I can say for the benefit of all thoughtful citizens of your elty that in Canada people do not resent officers questioning them, or would they here if they had any respect for the law. I think such unfair misrepresentation as the city of Seattle is subjected to at the prevent time should be resented by all honest eltizens, It is uncalled for, J. H.
