' It has long been the fashion at col leges and schools to take a census of graduating classes to determine ssch vital facts as these: What is your favorite flower? How tall are you? Do you smoke? Are you a prohibitionist? At a girls' seminary a recent Inquiry was more sweeping. To the Interroga tlon: "Dp you swear?" 200 of the 215 girls answered yes. But admitting that they swear Is not proof that these feminine lips do utter oaths. So at least says the law in New York state,' writes "Griant" in the Philadelphia Press. "Four or five people" must hear you swear, not for a second or two, but "for about five minutes" that's the law In North Carolina. Down In Alabama they don't expect a' man to swear from the housetops, but the law says that if three or four persons hear you just once, good night I In Tennessee it is not necessary to repeat the offensive words when a 1 culprit is Indicted for swearing. I saw on the veranda of a country club seventeen women of whom twelve were drinking an Intoxicating liquor and seven were smoking cigarettes. But if that census at the girls' semi nary is an index, more women swear than dally with John Barleycorn or Lady Nicotine. Query: Why do women insist on being so much like men? OWED MUCH TO STEREOSCOPE How Commanders During the Great War Got Information of Vital Importance. The old-fashioned stereoscope played an Important part in the world war. It supplied an angle to photographs, snapped from airplanes, that could not be obtained from the ordinary camera lens. Before its use the pictures all seemed flat, but the stereoscope added height, and thus steep slopes, that appeared in pic tures like flat ground, were shown In their true characteristics, and the lives of men who would have to cover the ground in attack were saved. The airplane camera looks directly down on the spot to be photographed, making a picture as a one-eyed man would see It. A stereoscopic camera, in which the lenses are two and three-quarters Inches apart, would not produce the stereoscopic effect. Pho tographers decided to take pictures 100 yards apart to give a view, Just as a giant, with eyes 100 yards apart, would see It. These pictures were put on cardboard, and viewed through the stereoscope. At first a cottage looked like a tower, a bucket like a well, a trench like a canyon, etc. Th officers soon learned to translate these eccentricities, and the problem was solved. True pictures, giving Just the exact information desired, were then, obtained by the airplane photogra phers. The "Biblers." The Czecho-Slovaks, having attain ed national independence, attain also the privilege of reading the Bible in the national tongue, so the British Bi ble society is planning to print Czech Bibles purchasable for 60 cents each. Austrians and Italians have long called the Czecho-Slovaks "Biblers." The Czech Bible was first printed in 1475, but when the Czechs came under Austria the printing and reading; of the Bible in their own language was forbidden. Copies of the Czech Bible were printed in other lands and smug gled in, but were burned if discovered. Religious persecution, dating back to the time of John Huss, the Bohemian reformer of the fifteenth century, com bined with political persecution to make the Czech Bible rare, but all the more highly valued. Although, in mod ern days, the Austrian government permitted the circulation of the Czech Bible in the army, it continued to prohibit the circulation among the Czechs at borne. Plagues Not Related. H. De Brun (Bulletin de l'Acade mle de Medicine), having had several years' experience in Syria with plague, Including an epidemic of pneumonic plague, protests against the view that pneumonia following Influenza maybe related to the eastern disease. In ,mnni. niacmA the couch is charac- terized by a quiet, spasmodic expira tion repeated continuously for long periods every ten to thirty seconds, and might be termed a "whispering cough."

"Does anyone believe,'' asked the Senator, "that the other nations would accept the Shantung amendment?" He pointed out that Great Britain has al ready ratified the treaty and Is under pledge to Japan with reference to Shantung; that Franco in soon to ritf Ify the treuty and is under the same pledge to Japan. "Does anyone suppose that Japan herself would submit to such a humili ation before the eyrs of the world?" asked Hitchcock. "The answer is sim ple' he asserted. We would find our selves out in the cold, Isolated from the rest of the world. "What, then, will the United States do? What will those American states men propose who stand for this method of killing the treaty? Some of thein will say that Congress can pass a Joint resolution declaring a state of peace with Germany. Others say the United States can negotiate a separate and in dependent treaty of peace with Ger many. Those who talk this way evi dently have no conception of the enor mous benefits and advantages which the United States derives from this treaty which we wrung from Germany at the cannon's motUi. Neither have they any conception of the difficulties Involved in negotifll?K a new treatj' wUh Germany to atoblish the tenua of peace and Settle -the controversies of the war. "To my mind it would be suicidal for the United States to throw away the advantages and benefits provided In this treaty. It would be disastrous commercially and financially. It would put us at an enonsnous disadvantage In our international relations not only with Germany but with those nations which we would thus desert They would remain bound together by ties of mutual interest. They would enjoy the benefits of the treaty and would not be slow to tak very advantage of them. They would resent our deser tion. "Up to this point 1 have discussed the possible defeat of the treaty by means of proposed amendments to it. That is the real program and hope of the majority of the committee on for eign relations. It is for that purpose that the treaty has been locked up In cold storaee for so many weeks. The enemies of the League of Nations In the Senate are not many compared to its friends, but they control the com mittee. They hve felt Justified in ro tainine the treaty in the committee, holding useless hearings and making killing amendments with the fnfl knowledge that amendments would beat the treaty Just as effeclvely as a refusal to ratify. " "A. ftw, a very few, Senators have dclnred that they would vote against the treaty because of the League of Nations, but it has remained for tne Senator from I'enosslvaitfa Uirjimox
