Address ttIH be changed often au requested. The Inaugural Address. "JutUlce, and pnly Justice shall al ways lo our motto," says President Wilson toward the close of his Inaugural address. Tho utterance Is characteristic both of the hortatory tone and the whole general terms of the oration, which, like his- speech of acceptance, avoids definite recom mendation. President Wilson evidently does not share the view expressed by Mr. Taft upon his Induction into office four yoars ago that "the office of an Inaugural address is to give a sum mary outline of the main policies of the new administration, so far as they can be anticipated." Holding to high ethical standards, the hew chief executive Is rather homlletlc In his appeals, and his entire address, whllo clothed in superb diction, re flects tho stranger feeling his way cautiously as if to avoid mlsteps. Most Impressive is the deep sense of responsibility with which Presi dent Wilson approaches his solemn task. "This Is not a day of triumph; It is a day or dedication," he ex claims. "Here muster, not the forces of party, but the forces of hu manity." The address Is In sharp contrast, In tone and character, with most Inaugural utterances, yet this might bo .expected from a man, whose very advent politically is an Innovation, and who has been set ting now precedents from the time he emerged from the university halls into public life.

Every death Is a sermon to the liv ing. Heeded, alaat no, only by the min ority. Death will come to all, for all that la born must die. The vital ques tlpn Is, how are we prepared to meet it? There Is a guide, always faithful, evet true, whose1 teachings will lead us to the paths of righteousness, which brings happiness in this world. Then If we are mindful and endeavor to follow along those lines that make for good, there will have been a preparation for eter nity, and the consummation of .a true life here; To such It will not matter If the end oomes on land or sea, In the natural way or .by accident.

CLEARWATER. Nob., March J.-T0 the Editor of The Bee: The letter rel ative to Mrs. Wilcox and her dance strikes an answering chord In the hearts of many of her former admirers. I have enjoyed her noble productions for years, but why It was that her teach ings seemed to lack the fullest measure of conviction I was never nblo to define Now I think I am certain. In her exhortations to her people to nbsolvj their lives from the call of. the physical self and to refrain from ita in ilulgencn In the only manner o?en to them, her greatest subject was tha "Social Evil." Now let me state that the social evil has more for its cause In the dance than In any other preliminary form of human Indulgence. In whatever form we find it, we will recognize as primarily the same, that pleasurable In dulgence or excess Is an attempt to satiate the craving of the purely physical in man. For this was the dance created. Now to one of her environment and ac complishments mentally, at least the ability to express through Its medium all the poetry, art music, sculpture and all other virtues which she claims for tho (lance, con be easily realised. But what of those millions for whom she has set herself aa an example? What must be the effect to them. when, in the attempt to imitate her, their lack of proper ap preciation degenerates the poetic purpose of the theme Into a means of mere phy sical excitation and. becomes an initiative to unmitigated lust No, Mra. Wilcox, you have exhorted tia In vain, for that which you condemn In ua and .the means of expressing It, which you have denounced, you have catered to and succumbed to, in yoUr more ethereal sphere. Christ never, found it necessary to divert Himself from Ills teaching to satiate His mortal craving Ills physical passton-r-and to become a teacher of men. we must imitate Him: for we cannot teach- that of which we are not first the example.

To the Editor of The Bee: A letter In The Bee on the "Social EJvll" problem, recalls an Incident whjch happened In Omaha, Feb-) ruary 10, in wnicn tne writer waa a vic tim. I came to Omaha to attend a retail dealers' convention, at about 5:30 p. m. of the above named date, having de cided to lunch somewhere, I walked Into the Turf chop auey house on Douglas. And by the way, I am not a tenderfoot. J know half; of the large cities of the United States like a book, and have lunched In some elegant Chinese cafes In Los Angeles and San Francisco and Other cities. Cafes that are frequented by D. D's as well aa the wealthiest class. I entered the Turf at about 6:30 p. m.. sat down by the first table near the door and ordered fried eggs and coffee. I had Just given my order when two detec tives entered and we were told to line up and watt for the wagon. When I told the detectives that I Just came In for something to eat he. replied. "We don't give a d tn." Two young, men. night laborers, who were coming In for lunch before going to work, were not yet In side the door when the detectives over took them and they were alao lodged In Jail. At the Jail they asked to be allowed the privilege to telephone their employer that they would not be on duty that night, but were refused. We were also refused something to eat by the guard. There were seven pt us In one cell e,nd room for only two to lie down. When we asked the. guard when we would be riven a hearing, he replied, "i o'clock Monday, a, m." A change of guards was made at midnight and the new guard, listened to my pleadings. I aaked. for e fair chance and nothing more.
