To remedy these evils Mr.. Nathan
Strauss, a wealthy New York merchant,
undertook to furnish sterilized milk to
the poor of the Ghetto. Now 10000 bot
ties of sterilized milk are being distrib-
uted daily to the suffering little ones
through this mans generosity. An
other charity undertook the delivery of
Ice either at a nominal price or entirely
free when the small price could not be
paid.
Hull House is the center of the Ghetto,
and Miss Jane Adams figures prom
fnently in every charity that looks to
the helping of these people. The pop
ulation of the Ghetto Is made up of peo-
pie of practically every nationality.
Greek, Italian, Jew, Scandinavian,
French, Austrian, those of the Baltic
states, all flock to Miss Addams for as
sistance when in need, and this kindly
woman never turns the deserving away
empty handed. She is surrounded by
host OF coworkers, and to this haven Of
the distressed flows a steady stream of
money for the poor. But the charity
dispensed here is a practical charity.
1t is of the kind that teaches self-help
whenever self-help is possible. and 1t
makes opportunities for the poor where
they cannot make them for themselves,
but II also insists upon an improvement
OF the opportunities when they are
made. The idler and the improvident
soon find there is no welcome at Hull
House for them

The Wife De3ertlon Act.

The last Legislature passed an act
making 1t a misdemeanor for any hus-
band or father to desert his wife or
children if wholly dependent or partly
dependent upon his earnings. The
act provides that upon conviction the
offender is liable to Imprisonment not
exceeding one year and to the impo-
sition of a fine not exceeding $Ioo,
which may be paid in whole or in
part to the wife or children at the d.
cretion of the court.

places where beer
and iced drinks are sold and where the
cheapest forms of vaudeville and dime
museum attractions offer the amuse-
ment features, the attendance will not
run far short of 100000. That means
that about one-sixth of the total pop
ulation of the city may be found in some
one of the numerous gardens within
one day, and they will spend there any
amount. from the bare price OF admis-
sion or the cost of a glass of beer any
where to sums running well into the
dollars
There is one big garden on the West
side that boasts of nearly $4,000 admis-
sions in one day. The price of admis-
sion here is but ten cents, but the show
features are all extra after the visitor is
once inside.
The garden where vaudeville features
are the attraction is more populalwith
the masses than those which offer
musical programme. The ColiseuNis
he biggest place of the latter kind to
be found in the city, and yet the admis-
sions are small in number compared to
the big West side place where vaudeville

Every saloon in residence commun-
ity must have garden attachment IL
It expects to draw patronage in the
summer. The garden may be nothing
more than small lot and few artificial
palms to serve as shade for the table,
out with this much the place is sure Of
patronage. In the purely German sec
tions this class of garden is extremely
popular The citizen who halls from
the Rhineland prefers his beer in
quiet place, but it must be a garden.
The ordinary saloon bar is not popular
In summer.
The Sunday attendance at the sum-
mer gardens is increasing at the rate of
about IL per cent. year. That is about
three per cent. greater than the increase
in population. Such facts prompt the
query of how much is the church at
tendance growing?"

Burrage Farwell, the head and shoul-
ders of the Hyde Park Protective asso-
citation.
A law passed recently by the city
council makes the victory of this asso-
citation complete and while the great
majority Of the saloons had been closed
through court decisions based on an
old local option law, this latest victory
assures a dry" section that covers IA
square miles, is the best residence dis
trict of the city, and in which 100000
people reside.
The enactment of this new law, and
the enforcing of the old one, which to-
gether have driven the saloons from the
Hyde Park district, Is causing a new
levee district to spring up along Thirty
ninth street. Especially Is this true at
Thirty-ninth and Cottage Grove avenue.
Here almost every door is the entrance
to a saloon, and many of them are not
of the most savory character.
1t was in the legal fight over the IL
eense for one of the summer gardens in
the Hyde Park section that the decision
was rendered TO the effect that the pro-
curing Of the consent of a majority of
the property owners in a block meant
the majority owning property around
the four sides of the square in which the
saloon was located. 1t was that deci-
sion which put the Edelweiss garden
out Of business.

poor went into the factories. the stores
and the sweatshops. Now the sam
power, the law, that forces them into
school during the school term has forced
them out of the factories, the stores and
the sweatshops during the vacation Pc
riod.
The new child labor law, enacted by
the last session Of the legislature, went
into effect on July / and is being rigid
ly enforced in this city 1t prevents the

term or during the vacation period, OF
any child under IA years of age, and OF
any child between IA and 16 unless they

they can read at sight and write leg

The new law has solved the problem

1t has also brought to the fore a new
one of what to do with the children"
1t was not until the law went into
effect that it was seen what power the
small boy is in the world of commerce
and industry. Hundreds of Chicago
business houses had to dispense with
the services Of their Office boys, at least
until they could secure the necessary
certificates. and the school board Off
cials on duty at the Jones school in the
heart of the city were besieged by
anxious youths and parents seeking for
the bits Of paper that would permit the
boys to return to work. The juvenile
helpers in the factories. the ushers and
programme boys in the theaters, cash
boys and girls in the stores and the
youthful employees Of the sweatshops
marched out almost in body, many Of
them not to return, and business was
seriously crippled

Of them, though the board Of education

Federation originated the idea in 1896.
Since then the women's clubs Of the

with more than 5000 applications for
enrolment, while he had accommoda-

He gave the preference to the children
of the Ghetto, believing they needed the
opportunities more than the children
from the better sections of the city, and
in fact it was for them the schools were
started, the first intention being to con-
fine them to this section entirely
