THE SUPERIORITY OF MARRIED MEN -flfHE natural and great superiority of married men over bachelors is probably so well known as to require no elucidation. It is not generally known, however, that the ratio is 26 to 1, yet such is shown by cold facts set forth in the following from a current magazine article upon the subject: "Show me one middle-aged bachelor who has made a suc cess of his life, and I'll show you twenty-six married men who have. Probably the ratio is even greater than this, but I prefer to base my contention on demonstrable fact. Of the twenty-seven presidents of the United States only one lived and died a bachelor. Nine teen of them married before they were thirty, five before they were forty, and two after forty. Yet, according to the census returns, taking the en tire population of the country, j the proportion of single menj to those married, widowed or, divorced, is about forty to sixty." MAN BEHIND GUN IS NOT EXPECTING PEACE (William Phillips Sims) BRITISH FRONT. Dec. 20. The man behind the gun does not think an early peace com ing. He believes the war will eni only after the allies vigor ous offensive has dealt the enemy a severe blow. I visited first line trenches and the Brit ish strength is Increasing dally. In a trench Si feet from the enemy I asked a Scottish pri vate: "What do you think about peace?" He replied: "I think another year will finish it." I explained I meant the Kaiser's reposals. The soldier answer ed: "I think he's trying to pull ur leg." His case is typical. Nobody appeared the least excited. All day the British mauled the Oermans with sixty pound trench bombs. The Germans lively retaliated for twenty minutes. Underground I found the sol diers singing ragtime. One sang is called "They Wouldn't Believe Me." The soldier said: "That's the Kaiser's complaint." 61 SHOOTS LOVER ALU THEN HERSELF Virile White of Portland Slay Mglil Clerk at Marion Hotel In Salem Love Affair Cause. SALEM, Ore., Dec. 20. A girl registering at the Marion hotel as "Myrtle White of Portland." about 12:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon shot and instantly killed Thomas Cummings. night clerk of the hotel, then turned the gun on herself and sent a bullet Into her right ear, dying as Cummings fell to the floor. Cummings was shot through the heart and in the right temple. No one saw the shooting, though a girl friend had just stepped into the bathroom when the tragedy occurred. A note left by the girl says: "We have had our time. There never was another like it. There can never be another less perfect. If we have err ed, our lives pay." Myrtle White lived with her mother and stepfather at 23 1-S Union ave nue. Mrs. Catherine Edwards, the mother, was greatlv shocked at the news of her daughter's act, but ap parently was not surprised, the fam Uy are Salem people, and came here to live several months ago. Myrtle staying behind until about three months ago. Cummings had been paying atten tion to the girl, who was about 18 years old, and It was Mrs. Edwards' understanding that Myrtle and Cum mlngs were to have been married shortly and to go away. She says that Cummings met her daughter about eight months ago in a social way. So far as Mrs. Edwards knows Cummings had never worked In this city. Cummings, who was about 22 years old, had been employed at the Marlon hotel since April, starting as a bell boy. He was promoted to the posi tion of night clerk during the sum mer.
