Juvenile Protective League, follow
ed M. S. on the stand
Mrs. Britton gave the commission
a list of 200 dance halls she said
should be under supervision. She
complained about the rooming
houses and hotels near dance halls.
But when pinned down by Lieut..
Gov. O'Hara, Mrs. Britton admitted
that low wages were back of the
dance hall evil.
"The conditions are very bad" she
said, reluctantly, land if the police
would only clean up the dance
halls But l think you're right in
one way The dance hall furnishes
the only Social life for working girls.
If the girls were paid better wages
they could support better halls and
have better amusements." r.
Later, she was pinned down again
by O'Hara on the question of what
underfeeding had to do with immor-

Employers of girls should pay
more wages" she said. "a girls

Mrs. Britton told how the Protec-

that boys and girls sat in each others
laps while older men lay drunk on
the floor at a dance in Yondorf's hall,
756 West North avenue, owned by
August Yondorf.
Yondorf followed Mrs. Britton. He
denied her charges. He said his
dance hall was the cleanest on the
North Side. -

The Lion of Janina.

About a century ago London was
threatened with grisly show from
Janina. The fame Of Ali Pasha was
considerable in England, enhanced by
Byron's stanzas in "Childe Harold"
So when the great Albanian had at
last been murdered and his head was
exhibited to the public at Constantine
pie on a dish a merchant Of that city
Thought the head and dish would be
a paying sight In London. We need
not regret that a former confidential
agent of Ali offered the executioner a
higher price than the merchant had
and obtained the head, with those of
Ais three sons and grandsons. He de-
posted them near one of the city gates
with a tombstone and inscription

Sift three times, the flour, salt, spice and baking Powder. Beat eggs with rotary beater, then still using rotary beater, grad ually add sugar, then work in the mashed potato with spoon and alternately add milk and flour mixture. Make soft dough, roll into sheet, cut into rounds, pinch hole in the center with the finger and fry in deep fat.
 Fat for frying should not be hot enough to brown the doughnut until it has risen. When the doughnut IS dropped into the fat 1t sinks to the bottom. As soon as 1t comes up it should be turned and turned number of times while cooking. This recipe IS ex- cellent as they do not take the fat in frying and will stay moist for days.
