Loathsome savage, half gorilla; fierce, formidable and filthy; convention flings ‘the skin of a beast about his re- pulsive form. Philosophers say much with r of ideas. : . Brutal fist grips gnarled cudgel. The heft of it, the clutch of horny fingers round it, spurts the hot blood thru) his veins. It excites the primal lust to slay. Cru elty be- comes his predominant obsession. The affinity between hand and brain is complete; the association of ideas instan- taneous. Man’s genealogical progress down the centuries has not yet eliminated all the traits of his antediluvian ancestor. “Today's applications for divorce reveal, to an amazing extent, charges of cruelty against American husbands. Not the cruelty of neglect but the physical abuse that bespeaks the carnai, beastly shadow of the prehistoric. ; A wife-beater should have short shrift at the law's Before civilization possesses a single man-made merit of which to boast, the bestial, the vicious, the savage within must not merely be held in check but throttled and cast out. ard to the association sincerely respectful; it must border on obeisance. Woman is worthy of man’s homage. Woman's influence is man’s uplift. Woman's tendency is naturally toward the ideal. Man's code of conduct is crude; he responds to the brute rather than to the things which would sever that last tie to the dark ages. The reward for his conquest of self will be found in happiness brought to others, in the heritage of love be- queathed to posterity and in the additional sense of self- respect that will accrue.

That is a most vexing problem—and has tried the souls of many a mayor in this and other cities. If Mayor Han- son can rid the department of its unworthy element, the community will owe him a lasting debt of gratitude. The first boche kaiser was created at Versailles, at the head of his. victorious troops. It would be poetic justice to summon the last boche kaiser before the Versailles conference and dethrone-him there, surround- ed by Foch’s victorious troops. nf Sews Iron Buttons for U. S.
