At least as a downtown and informal means of social intercourse. There is a type of moron who seems never one-tenth so abundant as for 48 hours just prior to the anni- versary of the Declaration’s adoption and during and for some hours after said birthday’s close. The class of numskull to which we ,refer is 99.87 per cent male with just an occasional witless woman scrambled in, These people herd together at transfer points and other congested corners with unlimited supplies of dynamite and for hours pass the time in mirthfully saluting all passersby with detonations and eruptions. If a nervous woman or an old man is so unfortunate as to invade their sector these Boob Berthas gleefully redouble the bombardment. A SMALL CHILD BEING LED BY THE HAND GIVES THEM UNUSUAL SCOPE FOR ORIGINALITY AND PLEASURE. Open car windows and sedans further delight these Firecracker Heroes. * * * F there were only some means available for enrolling all these witlings on, say, July 1, and placing them in large subterranean masonry vaults about as close together as they could comfortably stand beside the piles of their ammunition and leaving them there by themselves for a week with only a few deaf and dumb policemen in gas masks and armor coats to bring them new stacks of it crackers and matches, The Star would be thoroly in favor of continuing these old- fashioned TNT eolvens. But’ unfortunately we lack the masonry chambers As all our public officials are pledged to a policy of retrenchment, a bond issue to build a set does not seem feasible. The only alternatives remaining are: (1) For all the sane people and those who wish to remain sane to retire beyond the city limits whenever the Hun Offensive of Early July approaches the zero hour, Or— (2) To put the old asbestos blanket back on the Dynamite Hoodlums. They haven't any sense, and they ought to be kept away from fire and high explosive.

July 5.— “Jack Dempsey is an old offend: er,” said Dr, Wilbur Crafts today, discussing the reform . bureau's plans for the indictment of the world’s champion on assault and battery charges, following his knockout of Georges Carpentier last Saturday, The advertised meeting to lay plans for the indictment of Dempsey and the impeachment of Governor Edwards of New Jersey resulted in the attendance of one man, Dr. Crafts, himself. The re- form bureau superintendent is about to start on a whirlwind tour of the state bearing his ban- ner, “Bouts and Beer.” He un- burdened himself on the question of Saturday's bout, “Someone high up is going to be punished,” was ag @efinite a statement as he would make. “Dempsey is guilty on three counts, He violated the crimes act, the boxing law and commit- ted assault and battery, More. over, he is an Old offender, He has assaulted many people and broke the boxing laws at Toledo, two years agi Governor Edwards, Crafts said, has been grossly gull y by diing present at Satunaayy” touts sides failing to use his position to stop the fight,
