NOT HURT BY WARM CLIMATE

Writer Denies That Life in the Troplea is Enervating to ?White* Dwelling There. The opinion is widespread In northern chines that a continuously warm climate, unbroken by sharp periodic changes, is enervating and detrimental to the white man. This opinion is subslmitiuted -by a considerable variety of evidence. Exception, however, is taken by' Vaughan MacCaughey, writing In Science. Hawaii is sub-tropical. The significant fact is that the “white” population Jives “American style.” The hours of labor for busings men, professional men and laborers are just as long ns in northern regions. The holidays and vacation periods are no more numerous. The lunch period is one hour at noon, and there is no siesta. A white laboring class does not exist In Hawaii. Tills is due. however, not to climatic conditions, but to the economic competition of cheap oriental labor. ' \ • It must be acknowledged that the change from a northern to sub-trop-ical climate does not always agree with the white women. Some suffer from poor health and more or less profound functional derangement, however, the problem is an open one as to whether this is directly due to climatic maladaptation.

FRENCHMAN’S WORK OF ART

Beauvais Cathedral Clock a Remarkable Example of Ingenuity in Its Construction. The clock of Hennvais ( Eranee) cathedral is said to be composed of 92.000 separate pieces. One sees on dial plates the hour, the day. the week and the month: the rising and setting of tiie sun, phases of the ninon, the tides, tiie time in the principal capitals of the world, together with a series of terrestrial and astronomical evolutions. Tiie framework is carved oak. eight meters by five meters, or 20 feet by 16% feet. When the clockstrikes all tiie edifice seems in movement. The designer wished to depict the Last Judgment. This wonderful work recalls the clock of Strassl.-tti g. and is of modern construction. It the work of M. V erite, who was in the engineering department of the Nord railway, and who died in 1887. The cock crows, angels sound a trumpet at the four cardinal points. Imitation of flames appears from the openings of little steeples right and left. A soul, that of the impenitent thief, appeals before the supreme Judge. It is con detuned, “a I’ enfer.” and a demon armed with a pitchfork seizes it and casts it into the abyss. Next comes the soul of. the just. The. angels advance and conduct it to tiie realms of day, sacred strains being heard.

Spread Love of Good Music.

The greatest factors Jhat exist at the present time of music am! tiie inducement of a love for it, are tiie music-reproducing machines of all kinds. What these have done to promote general musical knowledge cannot be overestimated. Why. you meet people who, a few years ago. would not have known the name of one great musical composition. who now are familiar not only with the composers, hut with their foremost interpreters and the ways in which interpretations have been conceived. These people know every note of works they hadn’t even heard a few years ago. It is not enough for a composition to be great to beln tiie world, apparently: it must be kiio’B< to be great.With a man it is a different mat ter. Do your work well, and you will be judged by it. There are'always those who can judge if one’s work is good; let them judge.—Exchange.

Change of Ownership.

A poorly clad stranger had been gazing for such a long time with Interest at a mansion, with its spacious, stately carriage drive and wellkept grounds, that a policeman at the cornel grew suspicious and walked up to him. “Nice house.” said the officer genially. “Yes,” was the reply. “It’s a very nice house, and it cost money, too.” “It did that I” said theofficer. “I built that house.” said the stranger. The officer looked at the seedy individual and smiled. “What did yer do it with.” he said —“a spade and hoe?" “No.” replied the man sadly, “with money left me by my uncle. It is not exactly as I would have designed it. nor had I seen it before ” '’“You never saw it before.” said ttv 1 officer, “and it ain’t just as you'd like it, hut you built it with money left you by your uncle: that’s a good joke.” “It’s all true,” said the seedy stranger; “the owner was my lawyer!”

England and America.

The language and traditions common to England and America are like other family bonds • they draw kindred together at the greater irises of life, but they also occasion at times a little friction and fault finding. The groundwork of the twp societies is so similar that earn nation, feeling almost at home with the other, may instinctively resent what hinders it from feeling at home altogether. Differences will tend to seem -anomalies that have slipped faf* bjr mistake and through somebody’s fault. Each will judge the othrnr by his own standards, not feeling jts in the presence of foreigners, that he must make an effort of iniagnjaUon and put himself In mtm'e shoes.—George Santayana *ln l.:r.;d mark

ANOTHER WHITE MANS BURDEN

Washington, May 17.—The Republican Publicity Association, through its President, Hon, Jonathan Bourne, Jr., today gave.out the followingstatement from its Washington headquarters; - - “Our entrance into the world war eclipsed for the time being the troubles we were having with Mexico. Gen. Pershing, in charge of affairs on the border, was hastily called to Washington and sent to France, All eyes centered on the operations on the Western Front, and the escapades of Villa and his fellow bandits were lost sight of for the moment. But now that matters have subsided in Europe begins to hear again the sounds of revolution in our neighbor to the south. Once again Villa has called hjs followers together, captured the city of Parral, hanged it* mayor and his three sons, and threatened Torreon and Chihuahua. It may be that his next move will be in the direction of Mexica City, or he may attempt a sortie across the international boundary and shoot up a town on this side of the line. Americans in Mexico recognize the seriousness of the situation, and are said to be moving northward as rapidly as they can. “In view of the fact that conditions in that-benighted country have not improved, but rather have grown steadily worse during the time we have been engaged abroad, are we to witness a resumption of the ‘watchful waiting’ policy that characterized our relations with Mexico before the European war? Ever since the abdication of,, Diaz from the preside ncy in 1912 there has been a contest for the ascendency among various leaders who have arisen in dis-

ferent parts of the republic to fight ior control. The net result has been bloodshed, the complete disruption of the industries of the country, and the destruction of many millions of dollars worth of property. It is said that more Americans have lost their lives by violence in Mexico than perished on the Lusitania, and there is no indication of any change in the program in the years to come. “The United States cannot go on forever assuming a supine attitude of indifference toward affairs in Mexico. Peace and order must be brought about. The Mexicans having demonstrated their utter inability to correct conditions, and with no prospect of a change, in the futqre,- it is the obvious duty of the Unite States to step in and put an effective end to jfurther villainy. We owe it to our own self respect, to tiie guarantee of safety that should follow every American citizen wherever he may go, and to the moral obligations we have assumed toward the citizens of other countries who have property interests in Mexico. Having under the Monroe Doctrine, denied to European nations the right to enter and subdue the country by force, we should not hesitate to see that other nations get decent treatment at the hands of the Mexicans. “Now is the time to go into Mexico take control of her affairs and manage them until it has been demonstrated that she is able to maintain a respectable government herself. We have’A’ large army of highly trained soldiery, many of whom doubtless would volunteer for service in Mexico. We have a huge motor transportation equipment, plenty of airplanes with trained pilots, ample artillery,’rifles and tanks for use in any expedition that might be undertaken. Our military storehouses are stacked with supplies of every kind for such a venture. It is evident that the job could be done quickly, thoroughly, and at a minimum expense in money and lives. Why not recognize the inevitable and attend to the business while we have the means at hand? A large majority of the people of Mexico are anxious to live respectable lives and earn their living, which they are entirely prevented from doing by the outlaw bands that drove the country. As a result disease and starvation are killing them like flies. The United States owes it to humanity to step in and give those poor people the right to productive employment that has been so long denied them.”
