Morals of the World.
FIGURES recently published by the New York World showing
the large percentage of illegitimate births in Berlin have provoked
a good deal of discussion, and a contributor to the World begs
space to say that the World's statement that the statistics of Berlin are
no worse than those of Paris, London, St. Petersburg or Vienna is
exaggeration.
London, says the contributor, shows an illegitimacy rate of only forty
to the 1000 births, according to the "Encyclopaedia Britannica" and
the "Statesman's Year Book," while the rate in Berlin for 1909 is set
down as 250 to the 1000. European countries, he says, show a wide
variation, Ireland having twenty-six illegitimate births to the 1000 and
Austria 141.
A recent reference to the difference in standards or morality be
tween men and women in America expressed in figures roughly
estimating the percentage of men who fail to live up to what is
required of women surprised some of our readers. As nothing
approaching a single standard has ever been maintained or even sup
posed to exist in any country, no matter how desirable it may be from
the point of view of persons interested in eugenics as well as from that
of persons who are militant for the spiritual uplift, it should console
many Americans to reflect upon the moral superiority of America over
Europe.
If one-fourth of the children born in an American city in a year were
illegitimate, the discovery of the fact would cause great national agita
tion. In Indiana a few years ago an effort was made to get accurate
statistics showing how many children were- born out of wedlock and the
returns were not quite 'z per cent. While the figures may not have
been exact, they were probably as correct as those made elsewhere.
In America, Paris is popularly regarded as the most licentious Euro
pean city. That is due partly to the fact that enterprising Parisians
skilfully capitalize the vice of their city as a catch-franc device to part
American sightseers from their money, and partly because Paris is
known by many Americans who have seen little of other European
capitals.
The Encyclopaedia Americana's figures bear out the statement made
by the World as to the percentage of illegitimacy being as high in other
Continental cities as in Berlin, but credit Berlin with a lower rate than
is shown by the latest figures assuming that those presented by the
World are the latest. 'Paris, with 268 illegitimate births to the 1000
compares unfavorably with Berlin in the Americana's table, which
gives the German metropolis credit for only 154 to the 1000, as against
149 in Vienna, 439 in Prague, 439 in Munich. 396 in Stockholm, 300
in Moscow, 279 in Copenhagen and 236 in St. Petersburg.
The table of figures for countries gives France 82 illegitimate births
to the 1000; Germany, 94; Belgium, 93; Denmark, 100; Lower Austria,
260; Upper Austria, 210; Italy, 75; Prussia, 82; Sweden, 148; Norway,
79; Portugal, 140; Spain, 54; Greece, 16; Holland, 82, aiid Switz
erland 48.
When considering figures upon illegitimacy as an index of morals it
must be borne in mind that even if absolutely correct they cannot be
taken as an absolute key; yet for purposes of comparison between con
ditions in countries about equal in point of civilization and in the mat
ter of the distribution of population between rural sections and centers
of civilization, they serve well enough. It is not necessary to have
figures to show that in this respect America is certainly less immoral
than any of the other countries mentioned, with the possible exception
of Holland and Greece.
If the Star reporter who interviewed R. E. Bond regarding what the
Mavi News had to say of the electric plant here in Wailuku, would
wake up and get the hayseed out of his ears he might be able to hear
correctly and not quote something which was never even thought of.
Contractor Bowman is quite vehement in his language regarding
those who say there was a hu: formed to secure the belt road contracts.
Bowman denies the allegation absolutely, so far as he is concerned,
and says further that he thinks if
he would have heard of it.
The King and the Poet.
(By Nell Collins Barden,)
IIF king rode down the great highway,
His belted knights at his side.
His kingdom was mad with'joy that day,
For he rode to meet his bride!
T
But he heard not the cheers that rent the air,
For he dreamed of the red, red mouth,
The deep, dark eyes, and the dusky hair
Of the flower-girl from the south.
A poet stood near the castle gate;
In his throat the song had died,
And he saw not the king who rode in state,
Nor the flower-girl at his side;
For he dreamed of a face so pure, so white,
Of hair with a golden sheen,
Of the clear, gray eyes, with their steadfast light,
Of her who would soon be queen!

Vassar girls who favor votes for
women had a celebration when it
was ascertained that a California
suffrage victory was unquestioned.
A brigade of them turned out with
yellow buttons and badges and car
ried banners marked Votes for
Women." Thny sang "Marching
Through Georgia" as the long line
swung across the campus and pene
trated the ranks of the conservative
majority, which stood silent.
Later the antis got together in the
"soup palace" and turned out with
a big banner inscribed '"Home,
Sweet Home, and to the strains of
this old song they marched. The
home bodies carried with pride
brooms, dust pans, kettles and chaf
ing dishes to illustrate their belief
that woman's place is by the home
and fireside. The chafing dishes
were used as drums.

The new Orpheum is taking on a fine
appearance since the new front has been
put in. It is gradually looking ' more
and more what its name implies a genu
ine show house. Messrs Fernandez and
Thompson have shown what can be done
with good picture shows in this town,
and they deserve much credit for giving
us such good shows, when it was consid
ered by many that the venture would be
a failure.. They are hustlers and no
doubt we may look forward to many
more fine performances after they get
the building made more comfortable for
their patrons.

and both spoke a few words. The drill
of Rev. Heury P. Judd iu questions and
answers in his course in the Life of
Christ showed the readiness of all to take
part iu the hard work that Is expected
on the part of the members. Rev. Mr.
Burnham of Lahaina finished his course
of outline study of sermon building, and
from now on will require written work
from those present. A large number of
