- pawnshops .
WhU is life without pawnshops?
Nothing, says Washington, D. C. af
ter trying five refers without them.
They .were closed to control the
loan sharks who were charging ex
tortionate interest, but It is said that
, secret deals are carried on now, in
. -cheep jewelry stores and pool rooms.
- where even higher Interest is charg-
that when the shops were runnlg
. Openly they were able to locate 25
. per cent of the jewelry stolen, and
'.' Sow less than 3 per cent is re
covered. ' . 1 1 ; . i .
V There are bills pending to restore
pawnshops, but HmH the Interest
which nay be charged to not more
' than 3 per cent per month, and to.
control the sale of pawned goods so
; that stolen stuff may not be disposed
of with nndue celerity, or honest
. goods, without 'due notice to their
owners.
If the pawnshop must live at all,
ft should 'be under rigid regulation.
But much (better than the pawnshop
is the education of the public to see
-.that even 3 per cent a months is 36
, per cent year, and that thrift and
ewer.
The pawnbroker who is kept in
business because he is a fence for
uucrves should "be sent to Jail as a
thief h tinsel f, instead of 'being pro-
tected so that he may make life
easier for the burglar and the police.
"HAIR CUT OR SHAVE?" "BOTH!"'
Long and serious articles have,
been written and (fine orations mads
on the benefits which humanity has
, derived from the war, and now the
barber comes along with another one
-Tonsorial standards have been
raised Iby the war," says he.
'Tonsorial standards ' has a
mighty fine sound, tout what he
means Is that an the 4,000,000 or so
young men who have (been in train
ing and service in the army learned
habits of cleanliness and neatness
which tbey refuse to give up as they
return to civil life. They cling to
the clean shave and the neatly trim
med hair which are a part of every
good soldier's make-up.
' More than this, It Is not just the
soldiers themselves who demand ex
tra-good nod frequent service from
the barber; It Is all the younger and
older men as well who wish to look
as soldiers do. So clean cheeks and
well clipped heads have become the
ruling fashion, and of all the people
-who preach of the good war has
brought, none has a finer text nor
better examples to back it than the
barber. .
... Cleanliness of the body and clea'n
Uness of the soul are mysteriouRly
Interdependent, and pride in person
1 appearance Is the cornerstone of
self-respect and success. ;

BiESARE
St. Nazal re, France, July 15.
French brides of American soldiers
on their way from -Franco to their
new homes in America are entertain
ed in the Hostess house here until
they and their husbands are ready
to go on board a steamer. Thus far
81 of these newly-made American
wives have been taken care of in this
temporary home for brides.
The work of earing for them is
conducted by the. Young, Women's
Christian Association with five work
ers under the charge of 'Miss (Mary
Fay. The house was opened May 1,
and is located in a grove of trees
outside the limits of the men's camp.
: The wires many, of , whom had
never been more than 10 miles from
their homes before are met at the
station wtth an automobile .and tak
en to the Hostess -House where they
are given a thorough physical inspec
tion, teeth examined and any neces
sary work to be done on them is
here done. (After this they are' given
the opportunity to bathe, change
their clothing and are assigned a bed
in one of the spick and span donna-1
bories. Their life from then on until
the time they board the boat Is
chiefly occupied In learning the Eng
lish language, sewing, and exercises
and recreations of various kinds In
the mornings and with their hus
bands in the afternoons.
Ten days is the average time each !
girl spends in this camp. From it she
is taken directly to the 'boat where
she again meets her huaband, he
hailing been transferred from his or
ganization to a casual jionvpany so
that they can take the same .boat
back. That the government is doing
everything In Hs power to make
their life while till in the army s
happy one is very evident.
A month ago it was estimated that
accommodations for 65 would be
ample for this camp. This was leas
than a month ago. Today there are
accommodations for ISO and more
barracks are being buiR. The 15th
cavalry alone brought 51 newly mar
ried men and their wives. And now
that the service of supply troops are
going through here so fast it is sus
pected that the Hostess House may
be swamped, for these troops, unlike
the combat troops, have been sta
tioned in one place most of their
time over here and have had the op
portunity to win and wed some dain
ty French girl.
WANTS LUXURY TAX TAKEN
OFF LOGANBERY JUICE
Salem, Ore., July 15. (Governor
Olcott has sent letters to Oregon's
representatives in congress protest
ing against the 10 per cent tax lev
ied on the gross selling price of lo
