Caring for Eye. of School Children.

The laws of the various states as a
rule provide that, in case textbooks are
not free, the school district shall supply
books to children whose parents are I'M
able to buy them. Philadelphia has gone
a step farther in that it supplies eye
glasses for children who need them and
who are too poor to buy them. The JUS
LITIGATION is that fof such children
glasses are necessary working tools.

Sweet Sixteen.

The sixteenth birthday of Miss
Iona Billingsley, daughter of MI
and Mrs. Walter K. Billingsley,
occurred Saturday, and was cele,
brated by the young miss in the most
delightful fashion. Seven of hei
chosen girls friends from town were
invited to spend the day with her,
at her suburban home north OF
town, which invitation they gladly
accepted. These included Misses
Lucy Tate, Amy Wise, Ethel
Neale, Clydell Jacobs, Sylvia, Jen-
ME and Marie sArmstrong and
Frances Pierce. Miss Iona was as
sisted by her young sister, Miss
Alta Billingley, in entertaining her
guests. The day was spent in va
rious pastimes, passing all too
quickly for the happy young peo-
pie. At noon a sumptuous birth
day dinner was served by Mrs.
Billingsley in honor of her daugh-
ter. In the afternoon, the girls
were treated to picnic in the
woods near the Billingsley home.
All the pleasures of an afternoon
in the woods were theirs, ard were
enjoyed by them to the fullest ex-
tent. A delicious lunch was taken
along and partaken of in true pic
mic fashion. And when the shades
of evening began to gather, the
girls said goodby to their hostesses,
with hearty wishes for many hap
py returns of the day for Miss Iona.

Charge Of the Hotel Himself.

Has Favored the So-Called "Settlement
Workers" in the Juvenile Court While
Presiding There.
He Has Offended the Catholics of Chicago
in Manner Not Easily
Forgotten,
And Will Be Showed Under with Every Man
on the Ticket II Named
Again.

TO william Loefier more than any
other man In Chicago does Mr.. J. w.
Mack owe his place on the bench. Mr..
IIOefiier pushed Mr.. Mack through the
Democratic caucus IN 1908 and saw that
he was nominated.
Mr.. Loefiier will try to have his man
slated for denomination ut the spring
primaries.
Mr.. Mack Inns earned the III will Of
hundreds of thousands Of Catholics by
his marked prejudice In favor Of "set-
tlement workers. while he was presld.
Ing In the Juvenile Court.
Who these settlement workers nre can
best be explained by the powerful ad.
dress upon the subject delivered by
Father Curry Of New York at the
recent great Catholic congress held In
Chicago. Following are some extracts
from the address ms published In the
Record Herald Of November 10, 1OOS:
Father Curry began by describing the
Pharisee Of st. Luke's gospel. Then he
continued In part as follows:
"This Is the Pharlsee Of the parable,
and II you desire to see him In real life,
just live for a while In tenement dis
trict Of any one Of the large cities.
You can't miss him, and when you find
him you can't get rid Of him. for he
just sticks. lie settles In your neigh.
bOrhOoil, and where he settles you call
that place a settlement.
"lie has co.wOrkers. called resident
when they live with him In the beehive,
or nonresident when living In their
own homes OF In fine hotels from which
they condescend to come down to what
they are pleased to dub the slums' and
rub elbows with the poor. All these
characters you must call workers.
Their work with the poor IL incidental
and accidental; they work with best
financial results among the rich. "
MY own nelghborhood, Cherry Hill,
has suffered and still suffers from the
ollum cast upon It by settlementai up.
lifters and missionaries, and the repeat.
eily published stigma Of toughism and
thuggIsm has stuck 80 fast to the re-.
puted character Of my people that I
was forced to complain once to men,
Der Of the editorial stan Of one Of ous
dailies against the cruel injustice done
to us. but he replied: Father, we
know what you say is true, but-the pe0.
pie believe those things and we must
print them.'"
Then the speaker asked why settle
ment workers did not do labor among
the rich.
II can anticipate their reply I've
said. namely. that the rich can be
taught those things In their churches.
hut ] tell you that their churches are
empty.
1--WE have two distinct types of ser.
Chicago eagle. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1889-19??, 1908-12-26

tlement workers, the one q real mis-
slonary. an Out.and-out kidnaper, de-
termined, irresponsible, unavoidable
and as dangerous as live electric
wire. The other Of mllder type, is well
parlOr.tralned, soft Of speech, precise
In manner, Of nice. attractive. winsome
ways. The first, like buccaneer, fights
her way, grabbing every soul.prixc In
sight; the second wriggles herself Into
the hearts Of the children and the
mothers.
''rhe temple Of the settlement, how
ever. shelters third type, and dang.
erOus one at that. lie Is the natural
product OF the socialism Of the settle
ment, which Is religion of social sci.
ence. a fellowship Of almost pure.
naturalism, into which, II God is taken
into consideration at all, 1t Is only a.
fancy or circumstances may suggest or
suit.
1T Is from this brotherhood that the
shaggy.headed anarchist and the plati.
tudin0ub socialist are evolved, bundles
incarnate Of misguided theories and Of
energies AZ dlrefully harmful as the
bombs which, In their wicked ingenuity.
their too skillful and experienced
hands manufacture for the destruction
Of their fellow creatures.
1T 10 to this class among the workers
that the red fiag ID dear, the Dag whose
color Of fire and blood betOkens, and IL
an incentive to. the destruction Of prop.
erty and Of life; the dag whose very
color Ii the stain Of Cain, which calls
down the vengeance Of heaven"
Father Curry then turned to the
financial side Of settlements.
"lIave you ever examined one Of
their budgets?" he demanded. "You
will easily discover that by far the
greater portion goes to the workers
themselves. For example q am giving
YOU a bona fide report), out Of $4,000
received just $4,000 goes to the work.
ers for salaries, keep and unnamed
miscellaneous items, which may be
caraniels, theater parties. auto rides
ana the like, leaving just $4,000 to be
expended on ana In the neIghborhOod.
Look further, You will discover that
the $4,000 comes from the poor Of the
nelghbOrhOOd In club rents and club
fees and from a surplus Of a regular
bath KlOndlke. All the cash charity OF
the clubs patrons Ia thus taken by the
workers In payment for an expenditure
Of very little energy In collecting the
cash contributions Of the poor.
mo one could reasonably complain II,
In the administration Of these clubs. the
workers received the 4 cents and the
poor man and the neighborhood the II,
but II that were the case our fine set.
tlement-hOuses would soon become un-
tenanted monuments Of folly"
