Dear Sir-Your letter of July 30th received, and
in answer would state that do not think that any
public official should expect the public especially
to endorse his acts and to receive commentator
when same is strictly in the line of duty However,
would say that it is entirely gracious, and appre-
ciate your expression OF approval and good WILL
There is only way in which Improvement
can be effected in public affairs, and that is by
each individual feeling that he has a personal duty
in the matter, and just to the extent that the in
dividual becomes interested and fulls his personal
duty to that degree may expect better things.
Every citizen in Chicago should be interested
in it's business administration, in its material welfare
and in it's moral betterment None of these things
can be permanently improved by passing resolu
tons or writing anonymous letters The only thing
TO try to do is for EACH in his place, to feel the
weight of personal responsibility and to fully dis
charge his own obligations. This will make public
sentiment that will compel all things. Yours very
truly (Signed) H. T. STEWARD
General Superintendent of Police.

What Is a Woman's Hat?

A Paris court has attempted to
solve the problem of what is a wom'
ans hat, and has been reduced to
postponing its decision for a fortnight.
The point was raised in an action for
breach of contract brought against the
proprietor of house who had let one
of his flats to tenant who, having
an antipathy to hatters, stipulated
that the shop below should never be
let to any one following the hat trade.
A few weeks ago milliner rented
the premises and the landlord is be-
ing sued by the hat-hating tenant for
breaking his agreement. The land
lord in his defense pleads that mil
liner is not a halter, as her creations
are not intended to be protection to
the head, but are essentially nothing
else than an adornment of the face,
while the tenant replies that the head
gear of a woman is still a hat, It's
service as an ornament being merely
an incidental function.

money he can and at the same time
comply with government regulations.
There is usually an overseer at the
factories and the workers get often
$500, shelter and food, for the three
months they are employed. 1t is no
ticeable that salmon catching fluc-
tuates, some seasons being better than
others, but so far there has been no
adequate solution of the reason. In
fact, the salmon is a sort of a mys-
terry. The fish goes out to salt water
shortly after it is born and returns
to fresh water to spawn. This is
years after. Where it has been in
the meanwhile no one seems to know.
Most people want the red varieties
and these are found in the northern
water But nearly all kinds of salmon
are valuable as food. 1t is estimated
that salmon is nearly half again cheap
er than beef and contains as much
nourishment. To get the full taste of
the delicious salmon one should eat 1t

Sockeye salmon is considered a great
delicacy on Puget sound and served
broiled in the best restaurants. In
Alaska when they wish to honor a
guest they serve salmon bellies. This
part of the fish is the richest and

wasteful and expensive luxury. The
Indians eat the salmon eggs in great
quantities. This Is distasteful to the
whites, who never touch them.

University Board Rejects Tablet
Offered by 1910.
SAY TONE is TOO RADICAL
Choice of Graduating Glass Is Intend
ed to Preserve in Bronze Inten-
ton of State Institution to
Stand for Free Speech.

Madison-Offered a bronze tablet as
a memorial of the class of 1910, set
ting forth the resolve of the board OF
regents of the University Of Wiscon-
sin to preserve free speech in that in
stitution forever, the board or regents
has decided not to accept the tablet
from the class. 1t has been customary
for each class on it's graduation to set
I'D some monument on or about the
campus. The class of 1909 set up a
sun dial When 1t came to choose the
memorial Of the present class the
committee in charge choose quota
ton from resolutions passed by the
board Of regents in 1894, at the time
of the investigation Of Prof. RICHARD
J. Ely, head of the department Of eco
Monies, op the charge that he incul-
Gated socialism in his teachings.
The resolution says In effect that
whatever may be the action Of other
states or other commonwealth, the
state of Wisconsin, in its state uni
versity, shall preserve uncurtailed the
right of free speech. The tablet was
intended to be attached to the wall OF
Main hall on the campus. The regents
decided that the attaching of the tab
let would constitute a mutilation of
the building, and on that ground de-
cided to reject it. Individual members
OF the board deny that there is the
slightest inclination to curtail free
speech in the university in any mat
ter which may be considered academ-
ic, and say that the university men
are setting up man of straw, to be
knocked down" They admit, how
ever, that the tone of the inscription Is
too radical to suit them.
