Chicago, Nov. 1T--Women who wish
to dance the tango in Chicago must 20
back to the "hoOp skirts" Of their
grandmothers or eliminate the "dip,"
which now is considered ono Of the in
tricacies Of the dance.
They also must provide themselves
with tape measures or rulers, set
marker at four inches and make certain
that their partners do not cross the
4" dead line. !"
Corporation Counsel Sexton and the
official censors Of the city morals have
decided that these rules are imperative
and should apply to every public dance
hall in the city. The council undoubt.
edly will make the order official by an
ordinance Monday night.
Major M. L. G. Funkhouser, tho o.
ficial morals censor Of the city, thought
six inches Of air between the dancers
was the proper distance, but several Of
the aldermen argue that this makes
dancing difficult, 80 the four.inch rule
win prevail.

"dip itself, but the censors say IL is 0

COMMISSION
FORM FAVORED
Referendum League Believes
New Government Idea
is the Best

The Referendum League in session
last evening discussed the question
The Best Form OF Municipal Govern
ment for Wilmington" While there
was a division of opinion as to what
constituted the best form, all agreed
that the commission form OF govern
ment would be an Improvement over
that now in vogue.
Francis l. DUPONT, president Of the
League, and candidate for Mayor on
the Bull Moose ticket was chairman
of the meeting Mr. dupont spoke OF
the proportionate representation
method with the preferential primary.
He cited the workings Of this method
Of government and said that under
such a system adherents of all poll
tical thought would be represented
according to the number of the fol-
lowers.
Mr.. DUPONT said while he preferred
this method Of government, he would
work for the commission form Of gov
trnment, providing that was the form
the people wanted Under the pro-
portionate representation method, he
said the council would have legisla-
tive powers only and they would Sc
lect the administrative board An
other feature Of this form of govern
ment he said, was the fact that the
minority.-the crowd which usually
knew something, would be repre-
sented, whereas at present, in some
districts where one political power is
winner. the others might just as well
not have voted.
Others who spoke on the subject
we're r S. Monck, L. A. Hillersohn,
Arthur n. Andrews, John F. Thomas
and James p MCGOWAN. Mr.. Nc
Gowan favored the commission form
Of government because he believed il
allowed the city to be managed by
/ business men.
A man elected to Council as a Re-
! publican or Democratic or any Other
/ political representative. should lose
his individuality and become a repre-
/ sentative citizen, Mr.. McGowar
thought
The discussion closed with the an
nouncement by James l.. Stradley
that William II. Berry. of Chester
| had expressed a willingness to come
here and address the League in ths
near future. An invitation will be
extended to Mr.. Berry.

COMMEND
OFFICERS FOR
EFFICIENCY
General WiCkerSham Thinks
Men Should be Praised
for Service Will Done
RECORD OF GOOD
WORK MAY BE KEPT

There is a likelihood that in the
near future there will be an efficiency
record kept of the members Of the

Pusey Wickersham. the new member
Of the board, has his way. II will be
established soon In this connection.
General Wickersham. az the meeting

day. called the attention OF the board
to the arrest Of Levi Sparks. colored,
the alleged murderer OF Viola Hail,
BY Parolmen Crozier and Davidson,
Within an hour after tho crime was
committed a week ago last night.
General Wickersham said he did not
want 20 be misunderstood. He did not
believe that an officer should be com
mended for doing his plain duty, but
he thought this case was something
out OF the usual. and for that rea On
he thought the two officers should be
apprised OF the boards feeling I'm the
matter. Chief Of Police Black said he
had personally commended the men.
General Wickersham expressed the
opinion that there should be a de-
partment efficiency record kept He
was informed by Chief Of Police
Black that the department at one
time did maintain a system giving
men marks Of credit for particularly
good work. No action was taken on
this suggestion but Il Is likely that
something will be done in this direc-
ton shortly. General Wickersham' s
motion commencing Crozier and
Davidson for their good work was
passed. however.
The board suspended rule No. g.,
OF the department so that the police
can sell tickets for their annual field
