woman who has stood behind the

business Cherishes any illusions about
its being fun. She knows ii for the

What we need Is a common plane

IT Is announced that nine young
men students at Cornell Univer-
slty this year registered in the do
nestle science department and took
cooking lessons.
This is glad news on many ac-
counts. For one thing, it opens up to
men a lucrative occupation, Tor there
are few professions so we'll paid as
that OF the expert cook, and It is a
pity that more American boys do not
ht themselves to mn it, instead of
compelling us to send abroad for a
French chef Whenever We want a Gu
inary artist
But whether man intends to be a
professional cook or not, its a good
thing for him TO learn at least the
rudiments Of domestic science II for
no other reason than because it es-
tabllshos common bond or interest
and sympathy between him and his
wife when he gets married.
Undoubtedly one of the chief rea-
sons why marriage is a failure is be
cause the average man and woman in
this country lead such distinct and
separate lives, and have SO little
knowledge Of the problems with which
each has to srapple and ! am per
suaded that nothing would do more

ing it is to woman to have no per
sonal income of her own. 1t is be
cause few women care to smoke that
the average wife nags her husband

WOMEN TE4RONG AUDITORIUM TO PROTEST.
AGAINST OUSTING OF MRS. YOUNG

was demanded by 5000 citizens of
Chicago, who packed the Auditorium
today at the mass meeting called for
the purpose of forcing Mrs. Ella
Flagg Young back into the position
from which she was ousted.
1t was wonderful meeting And
it foretold the strength that the wo-
men Of Illinois will exercise in the
future. And the handful of old-time
politicians who were game enough to,
attend the meeting shivered in their
seats.
Following several speeches by sew
eral prominent Chicagoans' resofu-i
ton was passed. denouncing the un-..
derhand manner by which Mrs.
Young was ousted and demanding
that John D. Shoop prove he was not
a party to the plot by resigning.
Miss Margaret Haley first stirred
the meeting when she cried out that
Shoop did not know he was going to
be made superintendent before the
board met.
"That morning some one, who is
now on this platform, called Shoop
up and told him about it." she said
And every one looked curiously at
the platform on which was seated
John Harding, the Hearst Harrison
member Of the board. "And when
Shoop came down to the Office that
day he did not go to the board meet
ing, and that meeting was about the
only one he hasn't attended when he
has been in the city. ~ '
Later in the meeting John Harding
stood up and asked for the privilege
of the floor. A roar of Kisses greeted
him. Finally Jane Adams made a
plea for him and he was allowed to
talk three minutes.
His chief defense was that Edwin
Cooley, a former superintendent, was
elected in precisely the same manner,
by the blank ballot

stitutional and then she sounded the
warning that made every politician
squirm. Politics must CO." she
shouted.
Real progress must come to pass
now. Mrs. Young can be given back
her old place in spite of what any one
says. Line UP 100 men in every pre-
cinct and you'll see how easily she
can be put back. And when she does
goback she must be given full power.
She must be given power to control
Louis E. Larson, the secretary of the
board. .
"A letter from Mayor Harrison was
read. In it he said that men whom
he respected had gone against his
wishes in the matter of ousting Mrs.
Young. He also said that there
should be two more vacancies on the
board, but said it was up to the new
superintendent himself to resign; that
the mayor was powerless to act. He
also declared that he believed under
hand methods were responsible for
the election of Shoop.
Mrs. Henry Solomon, Jewish Wo-
mans Assn, tried to get through a
resolution asking that William Roth
man and John j. Sonsteby resign,
but Rev. Jenhn Lloyd Jones succeed
ed in having it skipped
Mrs. George w. Bass, who acted as
chairman of the meeting, strongly
denounced the ''frame-up" on the
part of the board.
Jane Adams said that this was the
opening gun of the war of the women
against the politicians.
There can be no doubt that the
school board is a political asset" she
said. eff not, why does the mayor
hold the designations of all the MEM
bers before they take office? It is
quite obvious that if any member of
the board dares do anything in def
