WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR GIRL MURDERER? There will be much shocked execration of Dorothy Ellingson, the 16-year-old San Francisco girl who slew her own mother in a fit of rage because her parents was trying to induce her to give up the wild life she was leading. But where lies the blame? Primarily, upon society—upon the public. This girl became hardened and crazed because she fell into temptation to lead a dazzling, but ruinous career in cafes and in questionable places. Those cafes and questionable places exist because the public permits them to exist. This girl might have been saved to a useful, honorable life if she had not had these temptations. There were male scoundrels all too ready and eager to help the headstrong girl to descend to her ruin. Some of them are being sought and arrested. But they will not be punished and they will not suffer as the girl—their victim—will suffer and be punished. Here is a miscarriage of justice. These foul “sheiks,” who make a practice of preying upon girls of tender years, should be classified by law into a class by themselves and there should be very severe punishment provided for them by statute. Let this girl be executed for her horrible offense against God and man and the tender impulses which should prompt This girl might have been saved to a useful, honorable life if she had not had these temptations. There were male scoundrels all too ready and eager to help the headstrong girl to descend to her ruin. Some of them are being sought and arrested. But they will not be punished and they will not suffer as the girl—their victim—will suffer and be punished. Here is a miscarriage of justice. These foul "sheiks," who make a practice of preying upon girls of tender years, should be classified by law into a class by themselves and there should be very severe punishment provided for them by statute. Let this girl be execrated for her horrible offense against God and man and the tender impulses which should prompt the relations of a daughter toward her mother. But let the men who lured this girl to her downfall; let the places of iniquity where women are led to ruin, be execrated and let the public take its share of blame for permitting these temp tations to exist and persist. Disrespect for law is one of the most grievous ills of the day. There is only one absolutely safe way to keep a secret—that is, keep it. EVER SEE A WASHTUB IN A BEAUTY SHOP?

Another veteran, Jay Gained his squash title by the national amateur club again. Auto racing suffered the disastrous season in its Jimmy Murphy, leader in for the point championship year, was but one of serious drivers killed. Darry Joe Boyer and Earl Willis also victims of the speed. Pop Geera' death was the event of the light harness season.

ABE MARTIN WHOS WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS THE TEST Moore opines (in Sovereign Woman) that Disguise our bondage as we will. Tis woman, woman rules us still. Comes now Mrs. Helena Normanton, Britain's first woman barrister, with the prediction that within 25 years the United States probably will have a woman president, and her own country a woman prime minister. Why not? Elizabeth and Victoria were the ablest sovereigns Britain has ever had, they will tell you over there. In our own day Holland, with its extensive foreign possessions, prosperms under Wilhelmina. George Bernard Shaw is one who believes women make better rulers than men. "Among other things, a woman can manage men much more effectively than a man can, and gets them to work more intelligently and more loyalty. The majority of masculine sovereigns or heads of republics pick the most obviously unfitted persons for offices of state. As a rule, women do their own choosing much better." And men work under a woman with less friction; the relations between woman and man are never quite so strained as between man and man. "The fact is that women are never quite as big tools as men. Whatever their defects may be, they are never handicapped by man's impracticability and sentimentality. Women have to have common sense. They must have it because it is they who are responsible for the bread and butter arrangements. They get practice in managing things by having to keep their homes in order. Men leave it all to them and go and amuse themselves. They have turned a job into a sport. It has passed into a proverb, 'plying the game.'" Midwinter Term Open.

HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" SOUPS (Continued) MEAT SOUPS should be made from the same kind of meat used at the meal, that is if any kind of beef is taken at the meal, a soup may be made from the beef combined with any of other non-starchy vegetables which are used at the same meal, probably the most delicious way to prepare beef is to use the and Salisbury steak as described in the articles about Proteids, cook it in sufficient water with a mixture of ground or chop-up vegetables of the kind used at the meal. For instance, if dry and spinach are used as separate dishes at the meal, they be added to the soup and if cooked for a long time with the oil will impart an agreeable flavor without the addition of the oil thickening and starch used generally in making soups. After eating at least for an hour, the soup should be served and then boiled with butter and salt, if desired. Soup may be made from boiling chicken, rabbit, fish or any of the other protein foods and combining them in the same way as the cooked non-starchy vegetables. It will be found that a clear flavor is usually added if the vegetables are ground and the made thicker by simply boiling out a good deal of the water. Soup will both look and taste different than any other soup have ever eaten and by a little experimentation, many tasty agreeable mixtures can be produced. In a recent railway disaster considerable damage was done. But one man among the passengers who kept his outward calm. "You must have been in this sort of thing before," said the doctor to him. "Oh yes," replied the man; "I was in a much worse disaster a year ago." "Tell me about it," said the doctor. "I kissed the wrong girl in a tunnel." answered the man. The octogenarian was being married to a girl not yet out of her teens. Rather near-sighted, instead of leading his bride to the altar he came to a full-stop in front of the font, and then it was that the aged verger had the chance of his life. "That aln't the bit o' church architecture you're lookin' for, air," he whispered, "that is, not unless you want for christened first." Men make such a hopeless mess of politics because once they get talking among themselves about anything they go on talking and do nothing. Men imagine that if they talk enough about anything they are sure to accomplish something, and more often than not they talk so long about nothing that they end by convincing themselves that nothing is something. That is the sort of thing women don't do. Well, with two women governors in office we shall see. For that matter, the only state where woman doesn't govern is the future state. One sign of an approaching cold wave is a foot-square furnace clinker. Unvaccinated people are small-pox food; were it not for them, small-pox would starve to death.

Chin St., Chicago SATURDAY, JANUARY 24, 1925 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying SLOVENLINESS IN POOR HOMES—Berkeley Gazette The Salvation Army has had epipets working in twenty-two states investigating causes of deplorable home conditions among the poor. The reports turow a major portion of the blame for domestic misery upon slovenly and ignorant wives. "Our officers," says one leader, "every day meet housewives who have never had a needle in their hands, and know nothing about repairing their children's clothing; women who never owned a toothbrush, and make use of soap perhaps once or twice a week, women who actually make a practice of throwing away stockings and other garments as soon as holes appear in them because they don't know what else to do. These women know how to cook parsons two or three dishes that their husbands get weary eating." It is a dreary picture, and a pitiful one, of the extravagance of ignorant poverty. Delegating drudgery to others or reducing its amount by the use of labor saving machinery is right and efficient whenever possible. But the good executive usually knows the details of his business and frequently has reached his executive position after a period of efficient performance of drudgery and routine tasks. Home-making and household management, too, are executive positions requiring knowledge and skill for their proper handling, and their drudgery is reduced sooner by efficient practice than by ignorant neglect. GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE ARE THE INTELLECTUAL SCIENCES ADVANCING? The theme Bacon hymn is that the state of knowledge is not prosperous nor greatly advancing; and that a way must be opened for the human understanding entirely different from any hitherto known, and other helps provided, in order that the mind may exercise over the nature of things that properly belong to it. Is this true today? “If sciences of this kind (intellectual sciences, as distinguished from mechanical sciences) had any life in them, that could never have come to pass which has been the case now for many ages—that they stand almost at a stay, without receiving any argumentations worthy of the human race; insomuch that many times not only what was asserted once is asserted still, but what was a question once is a question still, and instead of being resolved by discussion is only fixed and fed; and all the tradition and succession of schools is still a succession of masters and scholars, not of inventors and those who bring to further perfection the things invented.” Bacon wrote this in the latter part of the sixteenth century, but men are saying the same thing today. In the mechanical arts Bacon did not find it so; he saw them as having in them the breath of life, and continually growing and becoming more perfect. “As originally invented they are commonly crude and shapeless, afterwards they acquire new "If sciences of this kind (intellectual sciences, as distinguished from mechanical sciences) had any life in them, that could never have come to pass which has been the case now for many ages—that they stand almost at a stay, without receiving any arguments worthy of the human race; insomuch that many times not only what was asserted once is asserted still, but what was a question once is a question still, and instead of being resolved by discussion is only fixed and fed; and all the tradition and succession of schools is still a succession of masters and scholars, not of inventors and those who bring to further perfection the things invented." Bacon wrote this in the latter part of the sixteenth century, but men are saying the same thing today. In the mechanical arts Baucon did not find it so; he saw them as having in them the breath of life, and continually growing and becoming more perfect. "As originally invented they are commonly bride, clumsy and shapeless, afterwards they acquire new powers and more conmodious arrangements and constructions; and in them men shall sooner leave the study and pursuit of them and turn to something else, than they arrive at the ultimate perfection of which they are capable." Philosophy and the intellectual sciences, on the contrary, stand like statues, worshipped and celebrated, but not moved or advanced. Nay, they sometimes flourish most in the hands of the first author, and afterwards degenerate. "And let it not be said that the sciences have been growing gradually till they have at last reached their full stature, and so (their course being completed) have settled in the works of a few writers; and that there being now no room for the invention of better, all that remains is to embellish and cultivate those things which have been invented already. Would that it were so!" Midwinter Term Now Open. Enroll today for day or night school.
