After Al years of continuous
service in the editorial depart
ment of the Chicago Tribune, Mr..
Frederick H. Hall has retired. Mr..
Hall was private secretary to
Charles A. Dana when the latter
was assistant secretary of war
under President Lincoln. Later,
when Dana went to Chicago and
founded the Republican, Mr..
lican was not success and Mr..
Dana went to New York, where
he founded the Sun. Mr.. Hall re-
manned in Chicago and Joined his
fortunes with those of Joseph
Medill in starting the Chicago
Tribune. Mr.. Medill used to say
that Mr.. Hall was three-quarters
of the brains of the Chicago
Tribune.
For IT years he was city editor
of that paper, conducting that de-
partment practically single-hand-
ed. Then his health broke and
he was given an easier task of
writing editorials and supervising
the editorial page.
Mr.. Hall went to school three
years in his entire life. In spite
of this his diversion in reading is
found in the Latin classes. He
has a fair knowledge of Greek. He
reads German and French easily,
dlInOuSu he uOcS hOL pronounce
in eitheE and his knowledge of
history is VIGOROUSLY like that of
a card indexed reference library.
Any date or any fact which has
ever happened within the history
of man is apparently stored in the
cubbyholes of Mr.. Halls brain
ready to be taken out on demand.
Mr.. Hall incidentally read law
and became a member of the bar,
although he never practiced; and
he has been tutor in journalism to
young men like Joe Medill Patter-
son, William Hard, Raymond Pat
terson and others whose names
are we'll known to the nation.

WHEN CHASTITY GIVES WAY

Our Germanic foremothers lived in camp with
their men, and when the Romans drove the 'barbari-
ans back on more than one occasion, the yellow
haired slew their husbands and brothers with
their own hands, and then committed suicide.
These women would die rather than live contami-
mated, or with men who had lost virtue. And manly
virtue meant courage. Such women were Kettle
Boadicea too and Latin Zenobia and Greek Hypatia.
To the decadent jewellers in the old cities and
among the vices of ancient civilized life these char
harlan" women were strangely chaste. They had no
ten commandments, but to the seventh commandment
they were true And they bore strong and daugh
ters, fierce but pure.
Jane Adams tells us where to we have drifted
since our women lived in the wilds "help meets
for our men Six out of every ten of all our girls be-
tween 16 and 20 now fight on the battlefield of bust
Not in the forest but in the canyons of the cities
Not keeping the camp with those who bear the sword
and Shield but in the fight of hand and foot and brain
for money, money.
And yet, according to Jane Addams, who in some
marvellous way in spite of the poverty in which she
dwells so sacredly still keeps the gift of hope the
strain Of this battle has not yet broken down the old
chastity of our women Here and there it gives way
las indeed it has always done since Brunhilde loved
Siegfried. But Miss Addams shows that it has been
necessary for the ghoulish purposes of the white
slave traffic. to organize worldwide business con-
cerna slave catching concern-to supply the "need
for girls" And this in the face of the fact that
Miss Adams:
"THE CHASTITY OF OUR WOMEN Is HOLD
ING IT'S OWN"
But, she adds:
''NO ONE KNOWS UNDER WHAT DEGREE
OF ECONOMIC PRESSURE 1T MAY GIVE
WAY"
In other words the dam that stands between our
society and the hell that follows when chastity gives
way is feeling the pressure.
One girl worked for wages so low that as she
would, try as she might she could not buy new pair
Of shoes. She worked for six dollars week. Of this
she spent two dollars for room, three dollars for
board and sixty cents for fare. The odd forty
cents could net be made to keep her poor feet from
the pavement and with body to sell, her chastity
could not stand the strain.
o, men who hire our girls, and women who con-
sent to live in society that endures these things how
long do you expect this your precious society to live
under It? How long, before the people will ask them
selves what society is worth which takes the Brun
hides and gives back diseased drabs?
And never doubt that question is asked in many a
home this very day. How will you answer it?

RESOLUTIONS

An effort howsoever small,
A little boost for goodness

The Single Tax--What Is 1t?
Article No. 9.
BY EDMUND NORTON.

The whole question of taxation is simply this:
Governments do now exist and they must take
money from their people to pay the expenses of leg
islative, judicial and executive branches.
Suppose should stop collecting taxes in the
United States-any kind and every kind-for five
years, what would happen?
Why, the president his cabinet, the supreme
court, congress, the army and navy, would all go
out on strike" wouldn't they? There would be no
money to pay their wages, which sometimes
called salaries for euphony's sake-among the
"higher-ups." The same condition would occure
with governors, courts and legislatures of states,

"and we should strengthen our COM
mercial and friendly relations as
much as possible The Pacific coast
of America is our nearest white race
neighbor and we feel that our inter-

Hunter remarked that while Aus
tralia is in need of a larger popula-
ton, it has little hope of getting
many settlers from the Pacific coast
because this section itself is inviting
that class of people.
But we have high regard for the
American farmers and would like to
have them come over our way" he
said. "As it is we expect to draw
the greater volume of settlers from
Europe And some from your east
ern states"
