Days GriSt in
South Chicago
Is Papa Responsible 7

Must the South Chicago papa-the
papa who lives near the dirty and
smoky Illinois Central railroad--become
the nurse OF his children? Must he as
sumo the cares and responsibilities of
the household in the class of prevent
ing wee Myrtle from rolling on the
dirty porch and little Johnnie from slid
ing down the bantster?
These are the vital questions for
which an answer was sought in vain
today. It's all on account Of that dirty
Illinois Central smoke and scot.
A committee of South Chicago and
Windsor Park women, will get together
this evening in an effort to bet a pc
titfon signed by all the residents.
The Illinois Central has already made
arrangements as to the using of coke
instead Of the dirty sole coal.
The using of coke would help greatly
in doing away with lot of smoke.

out of him. They left the festivities

Kocia drew razor and laid an ugly
cash over the face of Wisch, and next

individual baccili are cultivated and
allowed to colonize that their number
may be more easily counted. They are
fed with secret food-c compounds ad-
ducive to their growth and allowed to

with unusual interest and education.
VIII startle People.
The general report of the investi-
cation will be filed with DR.. Weis, sec
rotary of the Hammond board of health
about Oct. Is and Mr. Brewster de-
clares that it will contain inforna-
ton that will not only startle residents
of Lake couny, but will compel them
to remedy their means of sewage dis
posa1.
When questioned concerning the most
practicable plan of remedying local
conditions Brewster declared that the
problem was too knotty. TT will de-
mand the solution of some means Of
carrying the sewage away from the
lake. Filter plans will then have to
be installed that the water may be
absolutely pure. BY SO doing. sewage
will remain in the lake in dangerous
quantities for years to come"
He complimented Hammond and her
sister cities on their energies in the
investigation.

Is This True7

A large proportion of the stories in
demand at select" libraries are the
reverse Of creditable to our views on
women. But it is only fair to add that
many Of the most pronounced of these
are written by women. Men seldom
write this unwholesome fiction, nor do
they read it with avidity. The study
of illicit passion appeals most to Ger
tain feminine temperaments. I am
afraid that cannot be denied-Arthur
