Probably he will fill his church by ircaching such sermons, but how many souls he will convert and make Christians is another question. No man in this world is going to change .styles and fa. -h ions by proachin.-j against women's attire. No wonian ever permitted a man to tell her what she should or should not wear since- live wore fig leave.s, so the Kev. Myers is wasting his breath. When it comes right, down to brass tacks the women look pretty good to men, no matter what they wear. The styles change, but. the nun love them just the fame. There is only one thin?: about womt u's clot hcs that worry men and that is how to pay for them. And they get them anyway, whether they are paid for or not. so why worry.

" bad men" who have been sentenced to reformatory and penitentiary will have a salutary effect in Lake county's evil doers. There is already a noticeable slowing up or crime and a smashing of crime waves. The murders and banditry that broke loose in Northern Lake county in February and March were such that something had to be done to save the county's good name. That something has been done in the Crown Point criminal court, nearly two score of criminals have been sent to penal institutions as a lesson and warning: to others.

What would have happened to these men if there had j

been no criminal court? The most of them would be waiting for trial now in ail probability and would continue to wait. Legitimate continuances, sought -by their attorneys, would have gone on perhaps rather indefinitely. The seriousness of their crimes would have been forgotten, feeling against them arrayed and then nolle prosse and dismissal might have resulted. As It is now the forces of law and order strike while the iron is hot and details of the crimes fresh in the public mind, the circumstances are obtainable and justice is obtained. Crime is not going to be so prevalent in Lake county. The underworld is shaking on its legs. Police officers are armed with a fresh weapon against crooks, blacklegs, thieves, bandits, gamblers and murderers- They fee inspired to "go out and get them" because they kr.ow their captives will be arraigned before the bar of justice Instead of lying around, fat and sassy, in a county jail.

ARE THERE NO THRILLS LEFT? ' An amusing comment is made, by a writer in the Kansas City Star, on the lack of noticeable excitement in the I'nited States oyer the preliminaries of transAtlantic airflight. "Are there no thrills left at all?" asUs the observer in Kansas- "If men cross the Atlantic in the air we ought to be thrilled, because it really wiil be rather an unusual thing. Hut about the time it is done we probably shall hear that they have started to bore a tunnel under the British Channel, and for a few minutes that will engage our thoughts on the way to the picture show, where we will see tie lady leap from the cliff into the tree top, followed by her pursuer, see the tree bend back to the ground to which she escapes, and see t!i -tree fly back and hurl the unpopular character clear over the top of the mountain." Or.her observers have probably been struck by the lack of excitement over the fliers, but tbe public has had a good many thrills during tho past few years, and perhaps its capacity to thrill is iemrforarily lessened. Perhaps, too, people have taken trans-Atlantic flight for granted, declares the Christ iarr Science Monitor. '-4

These swindlers hope to continue profiting by the thrift habit which war investments planted among the American people.- If a man is buying War Savings Stamp j regularly, the stock faker shrewdly figures that the money he puts into government securities can be lured into the by-ways of crooked finance and lost by a good selling argument. There is no higher duty before the financial and business leaders of every community today than the protection of the thrift habit, by the elimination of the stock swindler. The federal government's efforts to sundress this form of swindling through the Federal Trade Commission, the Treasury Department and the Postoffice Department demand the co-operation of every community leader. The continued Investment of small savings in the War Savings Stamp and the preaching of the value of government securities generally will do much to encourage the small saver to fdiun the swindler.

WASTING HIS TIME. "The styles of today are the most immodest, suggestive and damnable in the history of the world," de

clared the Rev. Cortland Myers, preaching in Tremont course.

Temple, in P.oston, on "Samson and Delilah." He beseeched mothers to take their daughters in hand and "'guide them right and spank them, if necessary." "A good woman is the greatest blessing in the world hut a bad woman can send a man to hell so fast he does not know- he has started," said the preacher. Of course the Rev. Myers is out for all the publicity

hp can get and hence he blames the whole world's wick-J

"Of course I am aware that there are th )se who are j peifccily satisfied with any kind of an old jazz band, and i

they may possibly be in the majority, but why be guided by those incompetent to judge? If sim;ly to be amused is sufficient, why not go the limit on saving, and procure a hand organ and a monkey?" Thus write an earnest citizen to a leading daily on the subject or -music --. "upark." After all, isn't the idea of ruu.-ie in the park to amuse the majority? So why be so sweeping in his denunciation of the thing which dues amuse them? Crowds do like gay, lively music. They go io tbe parks to be cheered, not uplifted, and probiibly the monkey and the hand organ would delight a lot. of them at that. Sti!. any man who thinks any crowd won't enjoy a little truly beautiful mu.-.ic as well has been so busy listening to the clamor of his own egotism that he has entirely failed to mark the hush which is their tribute to the sweeter strains. Park music should be like St. Paul, "all things to ail men." There should be the finer sort, but also the gay. Public parks were never intended for the benefit of the select few who love their Chopin, but for the ereat mass of the common people, who have no other playground, who are plain, uncritical fo'.k that like corned beef and cabbage and popular music, and who, thank the Lord, are easily amused.
