NORTON'S KIDDY SHOP ; In Gcnumiytlio niilroiul.s contemplate abolishing traveling compartments reserved for ladies only. Observation has shown that women do not lake kindly to the idea of traveling solely in the company of their own sex. Well, they might have known. Women do occasionally foregather exclusively and deliberatively for luncheons' and teas and bridge parties, but the more outspoken of them admit that at these affairs there is always something lacking. The only reason the men folk arc not there is because someone must make the money for tho m ixes, the salad and ice cream and, perhaps, to pay tho losses at bridge! The fair ones are often heard to make disparaging, na.v, disloyal, references lo what they somewhat inelegantly describe as "te J'ights" and "hen parties." From men, on the other hand, there is heard only glowing accounts of stag parties, hunting trips, poker ses-rions. A 1IOPH TO KM) WAR The French government has granted the Lufthansa Cum pany, Germany's leading aviation organization, permission to fly its planes over Fort Cherbourg, near the principal seaport of France, in order to speed up delivery of mail between Ger many and the United States. The mail bags will be dropped on the deck of the lirenien, Gel inany's record-breaking tr.uis Atlantic liner. France's action is commendable, because it indicates less of the distrust and suspicion that have marked relations between France and Goiman.v since the Franco-Prussian W'.n in 1870. Hut at the same lime will there be much ncccessily fin ally nation guarding the secrets of its forts if another bi); war should come? Will not those forts which helped steni the German advance into France in till I be as obsolete as the cannon of Civil War days?' If that war should come, death will rain from (he skies and what good will a lew forts be? The long-range cannon that bombarded Paris during the World War ania.ed the entire world, but since then mvialion wilh non-slop Mights for planes of more than. -MOO miles and for dirigibles of nunc than ('.OHO mile:-, has made the "Hig i'.eiiha" appear as a puliy weapon of war. The next war camml be confined to combatant aimies. It is certain-that the death loll of civilians -children, wnmeii and helpless old men -will be terrible. For these reasons, the statesmen and neonles of Hie woil, r.hould do everything possible to prevent such a conflict. Anything locking toward that end must be encouiaued fer vently. The people of the world do not want war anil their representatives in international councils must truly represent them. ' i : i J??
