Cobwebbed yesterdays ago. a nude savage was about to
be attacked by a wild, famished beast.
' i Retreat was out of the question. Escape was cut off.
Hand-to-hand combat was perilously impossible.
; ; i . He might tear a thick bough from a tree and wield it
as a club; but, such tactics necessitated coming within hit
ting distance; with the certainty of being dismembered and
torn' to, tatters before he might even get a chance to strike.
And he had to act instantly.
' In desperation, he lunged at a jagged boulder on the
ground, and with all his strength hurled it at the murderous
animal facing him.
- He hurled another and another until the beast, bleeding,
blinded and half-stunned from the hammer-like impacts,
stasreered about, allowing him to get away.

Secretary Hughes is not trying
to humiliate Mexico by making
recognition of the Mexican gov
ernment conditional on the feign-,
ing of a treaty guaranteeing prop
erty rights and religious freedom
of American citizens in Mexico.
The treaty of 1818 signed by the
United States shows that this
country has given the same treaty
guarantees to Mexico. If Presi

motto is service, and not slaugh

which will bind the nations to

peace.

OBSTACLES TO PEACE.
WOMEN AGAINST WOMEN.
Women of the middle west are-
taking up cudgles on behalf of
the real Mrs. Jacob Hamon, who
is to be depicted as one of the
characters in Clara Smith Ha
mon's forthcoming film romance.
Mrs. Hamon has led a blameless
life, but it had been announced
that it was the purpose of Clara
to present her on the screen in
such a way as to leave with her
the responsibility for wrecking
the domestic happiness of the lfa-
mon family. Club women In
Chicago have .voiced their pretest
and will lead a national move
ment against the production of
the film. Clara seems to be a
very efficient worker -on beliall
of the International reform bu
reau. She is doing more than
her share In bringing about a
close and complete censorship of
pictures. Her determination to
caritalize her notoriety on th?
screen is. convincing a lot of fair
and open-minded people that some
moral supervision of the film In
dustry may be necessary, after all.
If Clara and her story were need
ed in the f'lms there might be
some excuse- but she herself has
had no training or experience as
an actress and her story is simply
one of a thousand sordid tales
of illicit love. Nothing that she
and her associates can do will
make the presentation worth
while or even interesting.
The strongest opposition to
plans for world disarmament
come from the interests concerned
with the making of munitions of
war. II there is to be any nation
alization of industry it might well
be in the making of the tools of
Mars. If war could not be made
except by a vote of the people
and if the implements of strife
could only be made in plants op
erated by the government the
disarmament program might eas
ily be extended.
RUNNING THE GAME.
If there is any sporting in Ger
many the nation proposes to get
its share out 6f it. A like gov
erftment here would be selling
licenses to bootleggers. But in
Germany just now about all the
gambling allowed is in lotteries
which are run by the govern
ment itself. The prizes are from
the sale of tickets and the gov
ernment collects 20 per cent to
start with to cover expenses.
Under various forms of Income
taxes the government also collects
about 70 per cent of the prizes,
so tha,t the system becomes a good
money-maker lor! the party In
power. Great business!
