Humpback salmon have become so abundant here that the canners are refusing to buy them of Independent seiners. The price has declined to 10 cents apiece, from 24 cents. Not anticipating such a large run as has appeared, most of the canneries did not put all of their machinery into working order, and did not provide nearly so many cans as would be required to take care ' of the fish offered. for Men Lower Women , Fast Losing the tinued to be higher than the female throughout the rest of life. The ages, says the report, are definitely those of They are also the ages at which the influenza epidemic made Its greatest Inroads and 111 which tuberculosis showed the most pronounced decreases during the last decade. It Is entirely conceivable comments the statistician, that each one of these three items played an important part In the phenomenon under consideration. Attention ha; been repeatedly called In recent years to the excessive mortality among women from causes Incidental to pregnancy and these excessive maternal death rates having shown. It Is said, the greatest reluctance toward Improvement.. The Influenza epidemic, beginning with 1918, It Is thought, may have been the exciting cause for much of Ad vantage They Formerly Had, Statistics Show. child-bearin- Women are fast losing Washington. the advantage which they have possessed In the past of a lower rate of mortality than men, It Is Indicated by life Insurance statistics. The excess mortality of men over women. It is said, has been one of the supposed fixed relationships In vital statistics. In the United States the death rate of males has always been found to he higher than that of females at every age period from birth till death and this condition has prevailed quite generally throughout the civilized world. In recent years, however, the mortality of females has actually been higher than that of males among the Industrial policyholders of the Insurance companies In the United States and Canada. In 1011 of white males Insured , the mortality In one company was more than 13 per cent higher than v among females. While the actual excess in male mortality varied somewhat from year to year, the condition continued up to and Including 1918. Salt this Increased maternal mortality, it having been noted early In the Influenza outbreaks that women at the g ages suffered excessively from the disease. This condition has been marked with each new outbreak of influenza. It is further brought forward that there is no question as to the greater reduction of tuberculosis mortality among males than among females and this is strikingly marked In the ages under consideration. child-bearin- child-bearin- g, Will Use Gas in Future Wars Change Also Noted in Negro Race. d The year 1919 was by a ma-ke- sadden drop to about 5 per cent, and Entire Armies Will Be Put to by 1920 a reversal In the relationship Sleep and Made Prisoner, had become a fact, with the female mortality 2.6 per cent above that of Says U.

Moreover, these artificial barriers can be kept barriers for just as short a time as the strategy of the particular battle demands. These are but hints, but show the tremendous unexplolted possibilities of gas In warfare. Imagine Battles. One can easily Imagine the situation at the time the fighting was hand to hand with the spear or the sword, and gunpowder was first Introduced, which In those day, perhaps, permitted the antagonists to fight at a range of 100 or 200 yards. There must have been a great outcry as to prohibiting the horrible new mode of warfare, and it must have been felt that it was very unfair to stand off 200 yards rather than to meet in combat man to man. But no one looking back on that period would attempt to say it was possible to have stayed the hand of progress and to have prevented by any legislation or agreement the use of gunpowder in warfare. , "Moreover, the consensus of opinion d today would be that the fighting with spear and sword was more cruel and inhumane than the fighting with the gun and the bullet Similarly, at the present time we cannot effectually stay the progress of science, and to attempt to do so is not only unwise but Is also preventing the possibilities of a really more humane type of war. Hand-to-Han- d hand-to-han- Australia Will Have Capital Like the U. S. Melbourne. The next session of the Australian parliament will be in Canberra, the new federal capital which, like Washington, D. C., is a city located and planned for the special pun pose of being a national capital. The Australian capital was laid out by an American architect, Walter Burley Griffin of Chicago. Canberra is situated on a splendid undulating plateau about 2,000 feet above sea level, a little to the north of the highest peaks of the Australian Alps. The city site is divided by three large sheets of water, supplied by the sluggish Molonglo river, and adorned by parks and boulevards. The parliament house and government buildings will face a central lake, with streets laid out In octagonal form around them. On one side will be a residential quarter; on the other the university, municipal and industrial centers. Main thoroughfares will radiate from the parliament building. fan-shap- Woman Judge In Washington. Washington. Miss . Mary OToole, Moses W.

Really you do not- - know how much good I have received from your corner. I am only 14 years old but I look to be at least 18.

We pass the time away In such ways as and singing and really we have more fun than the crowds that gather In the dark corners to indulge in petting. I am wishing you oceans of success and thank you many times for what you have dons for me. EVA, Utah. You are right, dear it Is far better to spend your Sunday evenings at home with your friends, singing, etc., but I am not much in favor of boya and g, unless an girls of your age older person drives the car, as there is so much careless, reckless driving when a crowd of young people get out together, and such outings often end so tragically, that I hate to have my boys and girls take such chances.

I wish to be a member1 of your corner am I welcome? Thanking you in advance, yours respectfully, JUST ME, Utah. Surely you are welcome, girlie. One cannot well place an exact age for all girls to begin going out with boys as some girls are older and wiser at 14 than others are at 18. I believe the average girl of 18, if she is at all observing, will have acquired sufficient understanding of manners and customs so she may conduct herself properly while in tha company of young men, but I do not consider that aha should have a steady or go regularly or often with young men at this aga. The first and most Important reason far her not doing so is because her time and attention should be most fully occupied with the finishing of her public school education and going out toe much would necessarily detract her attention from this important work. Your informant possibly had this age in mind when she gave the high school aa a gauge rather than the age. (2) This is another case when the time, the place and the girl should govern what yoa could say. When a girl does not wish to accept an invitation from a boy there must be some particular reason knovflt to tha girl better than anyone else, sad she should be governed by this. Al- ways refuse as gracefully and politely as possible, of course, sparing him as much embarrassment or humiliation as you can. Dear Miss Brooks: I have never written to you before, but I hope that I am welcome.
