CAUSES OE CRIME. roliee chiefs, gathered in their annual convention, disagree ns to the causes of crime and give everything from women to prohibition as the reasons for violation of the rules laid down by Fociety for Its protection. Mo.t cf them sive ignorance JV3 the rhlef factor. More important than their answers Is the fact '.hit these leader? of the police forces of the nation tven ask the question as to the cau?e of crime. Heretofore their conventions have been largely ronhned to a discussion of the best methods of catching criminals, how to Identify them by finser prints, how to punish them after they have been tauKht and sentenced. It Is something of a .step forward when these men even Fugtest that there may be a causo for crime, lust as there is a co.i'i'o of yellow fever or email pox or other disease??. As Ions: as doctors confined their discussions, as they did not many years ego, to the treatment of di.ieasert little prnsres towards health was made. It was only whn they tried to find what caused illness that scientists really accomplished much. When they discovered that the dread scourge of yellow feer was traceable to the mosquito, it became ca.sy to stamn out this devastating disease by eliminating the mosquito. The reasons asblpned by the police chiefs as causes of crime are interesting because a dozen years from row they will be laughable and as ridiculous as a doctor would be who might 5Uggest that yellow r r came from a surplus of blood and prescribe ths ancient process of bleeding as a cure. That genius of sleuths, who ascribed crime- to woman, will revise his opinions later. He la misled by appearances and argues that because men, maddened by desires for had women steal and rob and sometimes murder in order to possess her favor, that she. is the oaus of crime. Ho overlooks the fact that somewhere in thi. mind cf such a criminal is the unrestrained Impulse of felf.shness. a kink of brain that recognizes no rights tav his own desire. The man who steals for a woman would steal to buy an automobile, if his fancy happened to turn in that direction. The m.n who gave prohibition as a cause and arueJ that the influx of poisonous drinks sent men crazy overlooked the b!. fact that the man was already potentially a criminal who needed or desired such intoxicants. There i- a half truth in the suggestion of ignorance, for that is such an inclusive term that it miy mean the half de closed brain, the mind which fails to recognize ripht and justice, which is Incapable of risir.-- above brute appetite. Sotr.fl day these police chiefs will turn the matter oxer to doctors and their cPnics will show that in r.or than 75 percent cf crimes, the perpetrator is. by inheritar.ee or acquisition, decayed by the ?ocallcd social diseases. The same record heM true of the slacker. Th bier drive on crime will come when this truth is recognized and the work of the Bureau of Hygiene is amplified.

Aor a iroMAirs victory. A woman has been nominated for senator from tho ftate of Minnesota, bur inoe who interpret this n. a new victor for wonen mistake the day and th times. Her nomination is a vindication cf the new spirit of equality, for the rao? is not a nnm.in rurnii: against a man. but a citizen whose principles and whos record appealed to the voters as bein? Letter than thit of th man who opposed her. Woman attained her complete victory when the law wa. passed which pave her equal rights in government rom that hour an appeal for consideration cn th" rrounds of ex was gone. She had reached the summit of her desir. when ehe became Included in the scheme of thing? as a human being and was tikm out of th list with aliens, imbeciles r.d children. It is "'.gnif ean: that th campaign of this successful candidate was not waed by sympathy for her kx. rot on any arcurnont that woman needed a

that micht obtain results. Th f.rst and fundamental plank In hr platform was hor.eity and upon that Issue ehe will make ber f.Kht. Her opponent in the race voted for .Wwb'-rry and for the disgracing of the body to which he was elected by condoning dishonesty at the polls. This candidate promise!, if elected, to vote to reopen that case and to purge thn record of the senate of this mirch put upon it when the pal of a toga to men with dollars and without conscience received only the flight rebuke of that body. Upon that Issue the former trust buster who i.s now listed as one of the pillars of the Old (Juard must battle with a woman who ha made her own record for sincerity by her years of work in behalf of better things. The nomination for this office ds simply indicative of the fact that the gre.lt body of voters, men and women, have accepted the spirit of the amendment which placed th" s?xes on an equality of citizenship. The fact that this candidate openly and frankly asks for no favors because of her sex is evidence of what women expect to do with their ballots. Instead of a victory for woman, it is a decided triumph for the real spirit of democracy which I la ccs all citizens upon a level of opportunity and of obligation.-.. Those who fight these new candidates on the sole ground that they are women and therefore not equal to the tasks of government indict or.Iy themselves. They are thinking and acting in a day that, has passed forever, the old day of tyranny cloaked by the pretense of chivalry, the old day of caste and privilege excused by tenderness and care. The old politicians. In both parties, still raise that cry, less and levs openly aj it falls upon the deaf ears of the Independent voter who is carina 1$S3 about labels in these days. The nomination In Minnesota should be a matter of congratulation, not to the women of the nation, but to all good citizens who desire that the reign of prejudice and of Inequality shall pass. o LI EE OAr MARS. Marconi, working with delicate machinery on his yacht. Is unsuccessful at receiving a wireless message from Mars. He will try again. Mars recently has been the nearest to our earth since 1909 a trifle of only about 42,000.000 miles away. At times the distance 1 235,000,000 miles. Irr 1924 the red planet will approach within 37.000,000 miles of earth. When we become conceited about traveling sever i hundred miles an hour In airplanes, we should ponder the speed of the mysterious bodies we call tars. True philosophy is humility In the realization of the Infinite wonders of the universe, compared with the speck, humanity. What would you see If you could travel to Mars In a rocket? To start with, you'd And a planet about half the Bize of the earth. Mars has two moons. A day and a night lasts 37 minutes longer than on earth. The Martian year is 687 day long. ' The oceans of Mars are rapidly drying up. It l;ai at least 200 "canals," some 75 miles wide and SOOO miles Ion?. Our astronomers claim they sec, not thcae canals, but the vegetation that sprouts up along them In eprtngtime. Temperature on Mars averages 60 degrees. A rock that weighs 100 pounds on earth would weigh only 38 pounds on Mars. This difference in gravity, along with other peculiarities of environment, causes our scientists to believe that If people live on Mars they are from 12 to 15 feet tall. All these scientific facte and speculations about Mars are Interesting. More Interesting Is man's ability to reach out through space so many millions or miles and gather these pieces of direct and circumstantial evidence. The knowledge and machinery with which our scientists accomplish these feats were acquired patiently and slowly, through many thousands of years. It is a great step forward from primitive man who believed that the shining heavenly bodies were devils and supernatural beings. The human race i progressing eteadlly, mentally, and the goal would seem marvelous of we could picture it. Mankind is mailing slowly, through fog and night, to an unknown destination. The American Association of Variable Star Obrervers, an organization composed largely of amateur astronomers, is conducting a nightly patrol of the sky under the guidance of Harvard College observatory. Just at present the telescopes are much pointed oward a variable star known In the catalogues &i S S Cygni. The Interesting point about H S Cygni is its Irregular habit of changing its brightness. Somewhere out In space it hangs a great blazing sun, perhaps many times larger than our own sun. We see it ordinarily as a star of less than twelfth magnitude. Suddenly all in a few hours time it will increase n brightness to between the eighth and ninth magnitudes, it will hold this brightness for a period of some days or perhaps a week or two, then will taper off in its usual dimness and remaia dim for r.bout three months. An increase of four magnitudes in brightness means that the star at Its bright stage is giving off 43 times as much light as in its dim stage. Imagire what would happen to this earth if our own sun began to behave in such a manner. If the sun increased as much as one magnitude in brightness, all life, such a& we know it, would start to shrivel up and die. An increase of four magnitudes in the brightness of the sun would bake the earth to a criap. When a bright sun. revolving about another sun that is not so bright, comes into our line of sight, all that we se is a single star apparently increasing in magnitude. Hut the spectroscope tells the story of whether we are looking at one star, or two stars, or a number of stars revolving about a common center of gravity. S S Cygni is a single star and its changes in brightness are iherefcre not due to tdipsc-s. but come from within. The .astronomers, patiently workir. to solve these riddles, are cn the trail cf the secret of the universe. One small fact, finally gleaned from endless research, provides the key with which to unlock many other fact3 and gradurlly we learn more about the universe cf which our sun an 1 our earth firm so inconsiderable o. part. o In Detroit, a m m married a widow with 12 children.

Probably no more important communication was ever riven cut to the press than the one we are about to give out. The following statement undoubtedly li of vast more importance, than the one Harold McCormick. ma3 the other day after remaining hidden from the public view o long; it makes the kaiser's memories look in comparison, like the sentence we used to write in the copy Look when we were kids. We will go further and ay that the statement wo are about to divulge i an exclusive one. The statement: to tiii: iriiMc: Well. I suppose you all noticed what a smear of hard luck I had at chain O Lakes yesterday, and how I got beat in the InUtation by these here lucky Taylor, Elmore FiMher, Uennet ar.d about eighty-five mere of these birds that can't play a bit better than I can, only when they pitch a ball out Into the grttn they always land in a gob of fly paper or something, and stick there, but when I. pitch one that ought to be a birdie, It always Blips on a banana peel ar.d ikids clear out' Into the roujz". If I had th luck some of these so-called golfers have, I'd watte dam little time playing golf I'd yo down on Polk st. and challenge all the champion crapshcoters regardless of color, and then I'd be ablb to build a golf course of my own and I'd pick out some land that had a couple of level places cn it. You all know I don't believe in alibis, and always laugh at other golfeis, but 1 think it is only Justice to my friends and backers to tell how It happened that I didn't make the low score, or at least the first three, like I ought to. I certainly had the worst run of luck. TROUBLE AT START My trouble all began on the first hole. Driving Just ahead of us this lucky old Bill Kennedy han.pened to get hold of one just right and almost drove the green, and then Fred Rose happened to see Mrs. John Reynolds (the club campion) in the gallery that ws there to see me drive off, and he says, "Mrs. Reynolds often drives 230 yards.' So, I says to myself. "Well, what'll she think if I don't do better than a mere woman," and so I teed up and waited a minute for the photographer to take my picture, but the darn cuss didn't seem to see me, and that bothered some more. So I took a long breath and exhaled so as to relax, and then the wind caught my drive and I landed clear- out In the rough over towards Crumstown. Well, Dave Flschgrund saw this drive and he says to Bert Meyering: "Say, how do these 21 handi

cap players happen to be on the course" ? 'That Just thows how much you know about handicaps," I says, but Dave didn't hear me. CUT THE MUSIC On my second, I took m midiron, but just as I was about to shoot, a caddy started to whistle, so I cays: "Cut out the music "Alright, I'll sing,' say3' the caddy. Just then my partnercomes and eays: "You ought to shift your weisht from your right foot to your left when you shoot an Iron thot.' Will I was some mad. so 1 looked at him hard. "Did you ever have experience of having your weight suddenly shifted from your feet to the back of your neck?" So that was all we eald to each other the rest of the way. SWEARS OFF CUSSING The dangest thing cf all was that I have sworn off cussing. By suar. when I drove into the marh on seventeen and couldn't say "dam", I was as embarrassed as I was the time t country school when Sadie Heck's petticoat fell off right In geography class and nobody could think anything to do next. Well, I got to go back and play with the club again. I ought to throw away my clubs, only I got too much guts to give up. I'll show these hams watch me at Elkhart. J. P. McGILL

OTIICrt NTTVVS Ol1 INTEREST Headline In News-Times "ELKIIA ItT MAN'. DRY WORKER. SUCCOMRS". Surely that item can't be complete without a statement from Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the Anti-Saloon League. Reading a Newa-Times advertisement, we are lost in speculation as we lamp the following: "If Jack Dempsey broke a leg two-thirds of the civllired world would know about it In 2 4 hours. Through what medium We'll be darned -if we know unless Je? Willard should happen to stas a comeback. THANK HEAVENS FOR THIS RANK HOURS from 8 a. m.'untll midnight. A party of prominent out-of-towr. advertising men, plus Boyd Gurley and Bob MacAulIffe, the distinguished local Journalist and Ye E-ditor. were entertained at the Country club yesterday noon for lunch by our boss, Joseph M. Stephenson. MacAuliffe, we are sorry to relate, tried to pull a Barney Google on the bur.ch by hiring himself out as a caddy for the afternoon. We made a dollar land a half hunting golf balls and'selling them back to the players they belonged to.

YOUR HEALTH

By Dr. R. S. Copeland

"As it was in the beginning, is nove .

and ever hall be." This is the rule of action of almost every establishment and institution. . We dread changes and are almost resentful of innovations and reorganizations. About once a year I rise up In defense of the school children. Then for a month I get resentful letters from school teachers and trustees, telling me I am mistaken in my views. Some of them Intimate I do not know what I am talking about, and hint that the shoemaker should keep to his last. Teachers as individuals are not at fault for defects in the school system which, In general, every American applauds and thanks God is in existence. The teachers are caught In the cogs of a great machine. If I strike a discordant note, dear teacher, bear In mind that I am just as ready to find fault with my own profession as with yours. Many a recent battle proves the truth of thia statement. i Xo educational system can measure up to its full possibilities unless it takes into account the body, health and physical development of the child. Mens sana in corpore sano. You cannot have a sound mind unless the mind Is lodged In the normal brain of a healthy person. The educational system makes daily and likewise periodical attack? upon the child's health.

One of the chief faults I have to J

find with the schools is the brevity of the lunch period. One of the simplest rule of hygiene is the adadrjonition to eat slowly. This period should bo so lone that there is

no inducement to bolt the meal to gain a few minutes' play. Unless the child is a glutton, he gives more thought to the playground than he doM to the food he must have in order to thrive as a young animal "should thrive. There is need of supervision at this hour so that the child is taught food values, the necessity for thorough mastication, and reasons governing the choice and preparation of food. There can be no better method for the dissemination of health education In foods and certainly no better way to protect the child's health. Nut sundaes, candy, "all-day suckers" and ice cream cones are not proper substitutes for real food. The children should be encouraged to eat for their growth and good health. Once more'l declaim against the examination system. There must be some equally effective way to determine the mental progress of the child without undermining his health. It is too bad to have these children get their first lessons in worry in this manner if there can be discove-ed a way of avoiding such cruelty. Headache, loss of appetite, disturbed digestion. loss of sleep. lowered resistance and readiness for germ invasion are some of the evils of the examination system. The physical effects cf the hurried lunch period and of the examination time are not so apparent to the teacher as they are to the observant parent and to the family physician. Personally. I am convince I the school authorities should give serious thought to these suggestions.
