to got msrrfod illegally is reported frotti Cleve­
land, Ohio, where more than 40 girls between 13
and 16 years of ago had been wed within the last
three months. In these times of precocious youth,
some <rf these too youthful marriages could probably
be found in most localities..
It is unwholeeonfc for girls to get boy cnuty
and boy» .to get girl crazy, at a premature age.
Books'and stories and picture films often stir them
up on these questions too early for their own good.
If at an age when they ought to be real boy»
and girls, enjoying outdoor sports mote thap any­
thing else, they get to thinking of the admiration
of the opposite sex, something is wrong in their
bringing up. Some might say they need spanking,
but. probably it would do more good, to spank the
parents.

Effects of Publicity
It is observed in England, now that they have
passed a law prohibiting publicity in divorce ic -
tions, the number of divorces has largely increased..
♦ The Law Time» say» that to the absence of
publicity, the divorce court will be resorted to more
freely.
.
•
If shielding these unhappy domestic affair»
- from sueh publicity tends to increase these unfortun­
ate separations, a similar effect might be created if
the newspapers suppressed mention of crime, as-
some advocate. It makes a big difference, how such
publicity is used. Some newspapers and plays make
enmmals seem like heroes, ana cause them to be
admired for their supposed bravery and ingenuity.
And some writers will show such crime up in its
true light, and make it seem sneaking and con­
temptible and revolting. That kind of publicity does
If the people who find delight in taking ad­
vantage of people’s inattention, would only be con­
tent to fooLeveryone thoroughly on April 1, and then
tell them the straight truth the rest of year, many
of us would escape .some quite serious losses.
Unfortunately there are many folks who seem
to think that every day is April Fool’s day. In­
stead of merely playing the harmless tricks and
grotesque practical jokes that have been customary
for generations on April 1, they constantly April
fool us ont of our money by various dishonest
schemes. It is about time to have the celebration
of April Fool restricted to the date where it belongs.

Mrs. E. F. Feickevt, president of the woman’s
Republican Club of New Jersey, remarked in a recent
address, that the women do not want political com­
pliments to them as a substitute for proper con­
sideration.
The politicians are alj very genial to the woj
men folks nowadays, and with their usual gracious
way, they pass around * pretty compliments on the
^ennobling influence of women i r political life. But
some of them after making thoM pretty speeches,
will fail to give the women their fair share of i n ­
fluence on those inside, committees that really
manage politics. The women meem to have got
