GOOD RESULTING FROM WAR
Country Has Been Aroused, as Nevor
Before, to the Value of Practi
cal Sanitation.
“Already the people are awakening
to the value of sanitation such as the
army l», now practicing. Chatta
nooga and other cities adjacent to
army camps have taken a hint of
what it really means to clean up a
city. Vice has been hunted to its last
hiding place and liquor has become a
curiosity. Military inspectors are
forcing the clean-up of theaters, ho
tels, restaurants, soda fountains, fruit
and ice cream stands. They say to
the proprietor: ‘Do this’ or ‘Do that,’
and he does it with alacrity. If he
doesn’t, a soldier with gun and hay
onet is presently seen standing at the
door of his pluce to warn other sol
diers not to enter, incidentally adver
tising the unsanitary conditions of the
place as effectually as If he cried:
‘Unclean! unclean!’ This humiliat
ing experience befell some rather prom
inent concerns last year, but you may
be sure that it hasn’t occurred lately.
Citizens exclaim delightedly: ‘Why,
I feel perfectly safe to eat nnd drink
anywhere now. I know that every
thing’s clean.’ Think you that they
will want to go back to the old regime
of non-inspection? Hardly. If they
may have anything to say about it,
sanitation has come to stay.
“What a glorious thought it is. to
make a nation clean and free from
contagion ! Out of the wreck and hor
ror of this war many blessings will
come; and not the least of them the
physical purification of America as a
result of the augmented training and
the broadened vision of the army doc
tor.”—Century Magazine.
HIGH-CUSS WOMEN WRITERS
Fair Sex Has Taken a Prominent
Place in Literature, and in the
Production of Plays.
Further signs of the “emancipation"
of women are seen on the covers of
new books and magazines. The names
of women authors, except in the case
of war books, where the women are
at a disadvantage, seem to outnumber
the men. In no class of writing are
the women unrepresented. For many
years women have been writing nov
els and doing a good job of it more
than occasionally, as readers of Jane
Austen, George Eliot, the Brontes and
others less known will bear witness.
Among contemporaries there are per
haps as many women novelists from
whom a skillful and high-class work
can be expected as there are men.
Until a few years ago the woman
playwright was more or less a rar
ity. Looking back over the history of
the theater it will be difficult for the
average person to recall a single fem
inine name that stands out promi
nently through connection with the
making of plays. Last year several
of the most stimulating and interest
ing plays seen were by women writers.
•Names of women dramatists on Broad
way theater signs are almost as com
mon as those of men.
Paquin Turning Out Army Clothes.
Mme. Paquin, the world-famous
modiste, is now making clothing foi
our army.
Whenever anyone congratulated the
late M. Paquin upon his success, and
praised those wonderful creations ir
feminine apparel which the world anc
his wife flocked to see, be merely re
plied, “The credit belongs to madnme
not to myself.”
M. Paquin started life as a bant
clerk. Madame was a saleswoman in
a big Paris dressmaking house wher
they married. She induced him t<
leave the bank and open a small cos
turner’s shop known as the Maison Le
lanne. That shop has long ceased tc
exist, but from it sprang the huge
business house of Paquin, which the
founder eventually sold to a company
with a capital of $2,500,000.
Willing to Salute.
An Irish priest was proudly boast
ing to his visitor, an English clergy
man, of the great respect of his par
ishioners for their pastor. Strolling
along a country road at the time, they
met a little boy who was endeavoring
to keep in check a large goat. The
clergyman passed, but the boy did nol
raise his hat. “Is that one of youi
parishioners?” demanded the English
clergyman.
“I am sorry to say he is,” replied
the other. And calling to the boy, he
demanded: “Is that the way you are
taught to respect your clergy? Why
did you not salute?"
