BY MARY E. WOODARD. NEW YORK, Oct. 29 With the assertion that the Titanic disaster made Jt evident that safety on the ocean demanded total abstinence on board ship Mrs. Mary Harris Armor, a Georgia delegate to the Worlds Woman's Christian Temperance union introuced a Resolution asking the "powers that be" tto prohibit on all seagoing craft, the Bale of intoxicating liquor. "I think it is a pity," she said "that the women of the W. C. T. U. do not take some action against the sale of intoxicants on board ships at sea. "Since the terrible Titanic disaster the necessity for such acton has been brought to our attention most forcibly, I therefore propose the following resolution: " 'Resolved, That we, the delegates of the World's W. C. T. U., in ninth triennial session convened, do hereby protest against the sale of intoxicating liquors on all seagoing crafts and respectfully ask the powers that be to grant this request."

The resolution passed unanimously.

Countess Again Head. The election of officers resulted in the re-election of all the old officers Kb follows: Rosiland Countess, of Carlisle, England, president; Mrs. Lillian M. Stevens United States, vice president; secretaries. Miss Agnes Slack of England, and Miss Anna A. Gordon of the United States; treasurer, Mrs. Mary E. Sandn-son of Quebec, Canada. . There are 413 voting delegates from thirty-five countries. The greatest enthusiasm of the convention was shown on Monday afternoon when Mrs. Deborah Knox Livingston of Maine conducted a symposium on women's suffrage. Representatives from New Zealand, the first country to grant full suffrage to women, China, now struggling for political freedom, Denmark, Sweden, Canada, Scotland, England, Australia and South Africa all spoke of the great movementin their countries. Then thirty women from the ten suffrage states in this country march

ed onto the stage singing to the tune of "Dixie." "We are women voters of these United States," Each then related some of the benefits which have come from suffrage in her respective state and closed by singing, "We now have women's suffrage, We have, We name." The whole audience of 3,000 then rose and sang, "We're out for women's suffrage, We are. We are," to the tune of "Dixie" with great enthusiasm. An address by Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the National Women's Suffrage association, followed. She said there are seventeen national suffrage associations in England and

only ono is militant. She then denounced the militant movement and was roundly cheered. Mrs. Andcr Drew of New Zealand paid she never heard of an anti-suffrage movement until she came to this country. "In New Zealand," Mrs. Drew said, "We would as soon think of organizing to keep women from having breaffast as to organize against women's suffrage."

On two occasions the hearts of Richmond citizens swell with conscious pride over the metropolitan aspect of the Quaker city. One is when the motor truck of the fire department flashes past in a carmine streak five full squares ahead of the equally necessary hook and ladder wagon, and the other is when they are able successfully to cross the track when the belt street car is approaching a quarter of a square away. At such times as these, Richmond youths forget the glamor of the great white way, the call of the boardwalk, and the desire to go over the Rhine. Their hearts beat fast, their souls thrill. For it is in such times as these

FLAT FEET SPOIL DAN CUPID'S PLAN William Goodson Unable to Join Army of Uncle Sam.

, The refusal of the army officers to enlist a man with fiat feet spoiled the plans which William B. Goodson and his sweetheart had made for a novel honeymoon, during which they expected to visit Alaska, the Philippines and the western part of the United States. Goodson came to the local recruiting station a short time ago and filed his application for admission to the army with Recruiting Officer Abbott. Goodson, who is a barber, said he and his fiance wanted to get married and see the world. They decided that he should enlist and go to the post to which he was

assigned, there continuing as a barber. In this way they hoped to be able to get married, she going to him. As married people they would be given private quarters at the barracks, and when the company was moved she would be furnished transportation. She had confidence in him and was not afraid that the society life at the post would cause him to forget her, but was willing and anxious for Goodson to enlist, believing it would be only a short time until she could go to him. Under the physical examination It developed that the applicant, otherwise a fine specimen of manhood, had flat feet. His application was rejected by the officers at Indianapolis. Now Goodson and his sweetheart will not be able to see the world soon, and will have to wait some time before their romance can be concluded with a wedding. "More men are rejected by the army officers because of flat feet than on any other grounds." said Recruiting Officer Abbott today. Corporal Abbott explained that the man with flat feet has no strength in the arches of his instep. When he walks these arches break down and the feet spread out. A man so afflicted can not stand long hikes necessary to keep the soldiers In condition or the forced marches that would be necessary in time of war, he said. Not only do they make poor foot soldiers, but flat-footed men can not stand to ride with their feet in stirrups all day. he said. More applications made through the local station have been rejected during the last month than at any time since Abbott came here. The requirements for physique and Intelligence are high, which allows only well-balanced men to become soldiers. Three foreigners were refused admission because, although they could read and write English, they could not understand It perfectly when listening to a rapid conversation.
