LOSS OF PLACE
INSPIRES BRIDE
TO TELL SECRET
Mrs. Eugene O'Mara Kept We'd
ding Secret for More Than
Five Months.

JUS because she did not care to work
Catherine Hagan, of 81 Frederick street,
has been secretly married since Sep
TENDER 10 last to Eugene O'Mara, of A
Oxford street
"Oh, no, the thirteenth is not an I'M
lucky day: in fact. it has not been so
for me, for since that day I have been
a very happy woman" said pretty Mrs.
O'Mara.
mo, we would not have told anyone
of u wedding, if it had not been for
the fact that 1 gave up my work. You
see, the foreman where I worked wished
to change me to another department
and I would not stand for it, because l
wanted to remain with the girls I had
been associated with so long. This
made the foreman very angry and he
told me that I would either do as he
wished or quit the job, and quit I did.
After a few days of idleness the
thought struck me that it would be best
to get started at housekeeping, and my
husband and 1 talked the matter over.
We decided to inform our parents of
our marriage and start up a little fiat.
This we did and, really, they were not
At all angry"
The two sisters and three brothers of
Mrs. O'Mara have invited friends of both
the young couple to be present at their

night, when the wedding will be cele-

he st. James Church by the Rev. Pat
rick Cody. She was formerly employed
at the Edison works in Harrison. Mr..
O'Mara is a clerk in a tea store at 663

COLLEGE FRArERNTTIEs.

Professor John o. Reed, dean Of the
University of Michigan, delivered a
lecture in Chicago recently in which
he criticised severely the members of
college fraternities. He said that
these organizations we're responsible
for most of the poor scholarship and
dissipation among college students.
Perhaps Mr.. Reed was unfortunate in
the opportunity presented to him to
join a fraternity during his student
days, if he had such a chance. Or per-
haps, he may be trifie sore because
no such opportunity was presented to
him But whatever is the reason for
his bitterness in this regard. his indict-
ment of college fraternities is altogeth-
er too general. 1t is manffestly unjust
as it relates to many of them, and this
is as we'll known to the average col
lege man as it is to the average fra
ternity man, and should be to profess
sors.
Undoubtedly, there are chapters Of
college fraternities at various seats of
learning throughout the land, which
do not WELD a good influence over their
members. But they are the exception
rather than the rule. AS a matter of
fact the upper classmen in college
fraternities act as mentors for their
brethren in the lower classes, and the
youngsters are made to toe pretty
severe marks and to walk in pretty
straight lines. The members of most
fraternities are particularly jealous
that each and every one of them shall
give a good account of himself in the
class room, in the social life of the
college and on the athletic field, if one
of their number is capable of perform
ing there well. They have a decided
interest that their fraternity shall have
an excellent reputation in every walk
of college life. And the reputation of
such an organization can be nothing
more than a composite of the reputa-
lions of its individual members.
There are any number of fraterni-
ties which do not allow liquor of any
kind On the premises of their chapter
houses on any occasion. There are
just as many which do not allow the
playing of cards for money or gam
bling in any other form in their chap
ter houses. And the members of a
fraternity chapter have the means of
making it mighty uncomfortable for
one of their number who dissipates to
any extent, and they are not slow in
using them. Taken all in all the aver
age chapter of a college fraternity is a
mighty fine institution. They get
blamed by college professors for lot
of things they never dream of doing
and countenancing. Probably If col
| lege trustees took the same care in
selecting some of the college professors
| that is taken by college fraternity
| chapter in selecting its members, so
many foolish and utterly unreliable
statements and opinions would not be
credited to college professors.

GOVERNMENT BY COMMISSION,


Although the commission govern
ment has been in operation in WIGHT
ia only a month it's success is estab-
lished.' This was statement made
recently to the Kansas City Star by
T. J. Mcdonald, wholesale grocer of
Wichita, who was visiting in Kansas
City. And Mr.. Mcdonald went on:
ANY government which eliminates
red tape is bound to be a great thing,
and is just what the commission form
does. The recall may always be used
to keep a commissioner from misus-
ing his power"
Thousands of words could be used
in telling of the benefits of the COM
mission form of government as they
have developed in the places where
it has been tried and of the POSSIBLE
ties of it's worth, but they probably
would not strike as directly at the
crux of the advantages of the COM
mission form of government as do
the two simple sentences pronounced
| by Mr.. Mcdonald. The commission
form of government does away with
red tape in the administration of the
affairs of a city. And in doing this it
solves the question of municipal gov
eminent. The duties of the commits
sioners in their respective depart
ments are exactly specified by law.
| There is no divided responsibility for
| anything. Each commissioner has his
| end of the government to look after.
If he decides it is necessary to do any
| thing he does not have to wait until
a city council of twelve men has talk
ed the thing to death in committee
and in general assembly. He does not
| have to make his views coincide with
| the views of lot of other men. He
! does not have to look after the inter-
| ests of any particular ward or section
| of the city to see that it gets just as
much attention or little more than
| any other ward. Each commissioner
| is serving the interests of the whole
city all the time. And if he attempts
to abuse his power he can be recalled
from office quite as easily as he was
elevated to it.
This is the kind of a government
that Mayor Green has made it pos
sible for Topekans to secure by his is
suance of petitions which need to be
filled out before he can call a special
election for the purpose of permitting
the voters to say whether or not such
a system of government shall be
tried. It almost goes without saying
how Topekans will decide this ques-
ton when they get an opportunity.
