MERELY COMMENT

State Factory Inspector Nelson re-
fers to the Tribune's conscience. If
either Oscar or the Trib finds that
funny little thing we want a peep
at it.
It appears from the evidence that
clairvoyants not only disclose the FIJI
ture to fair clients, but will also love
them up a bit if that's what they
want.
. The funny thing about it all is that
folks still believe some professor can
tell what's coming of in the future.
But they do say a fool and his
money are soon parted, and we pre-
sumo that goes for both sexes.
Speaking of immortaIs, we knew
an oil man once who subscribed for
Ebert Hubbard's Philistine and
thought when he handed his money
over to Ebert that made him an i'm
mortal.
We can do it just as easily as EI-
bert can. So we hereby make every
reader of The Day Book an fmmor-
tai. Go as far as you like as i'm
mortals, but no guarantee goes
with it.
A new broom sweeps clean, and
every new broom thinks that's the
first thing it is expected to do.
So Chief Gleason is sweeping the
tenderloin. Every chief has done it.
And the tenderloin always comes
back.
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-11-17

But what would some of our cute
little reformers do if the tenderloiH
stayed swept clean?
One way to solve the problem of
the unemployed is to pay living
wages to them when they are en-
ployed.
Then they can look out for them
selves better when out of job.
The Workingman will be satisfied
if he gets his prof1t-sharing in his pay
envelope. The other kind that you
read about in the newspapers doesn't
always pan out.
That is, the Workingman doesn't
always get his fingers on it. And
that's what he wants.
While the Trib is on the hunt for
fake advertising, it might take one
good look at some of the bunk in it's
Sunday Magazine. 1t looks like
Examiner advertising.

WELL-KNoWN PRINTER DIES
VIM. McEvoy, 81, died yesterday
morning at his residence, 2019 Racine
avenue.
To the average reader this brief an
nouncement doesn't mean very
much, but to the hundreds of men
engaged in the printing trades of
Chicago it will bring a tinge of sad
ness, for they have lost a friend.
Mr.. McEvoy has been working at
the typographical trade since he was
a boy. In June, 1852, he organized
the Chicago Typographical Union,
No. 16, with 81 other printers. Since
that time it has grown to be one of
the most important unions in the
country.
Mr.. McEvoy was financial secre-
tary from 1875 to 1879 and secretary
treasurer from 1888 to 1909.

One Acre Farms

In one of the most beautiful valleys

Near the thriving city of San Diego, a
colony of Americans are working out a

that one acre IL as much rs man

ly cultivated one acre is sufficient for
the support OF a family. This demon
stration has been carried beyond the
experimental stage, and score or more
of one-acre farms are fulfilling their
allotted function.
IL must be- admitted that this a
ohievement has been facilitated by ex
ceptionally favorable conditions. INT
