JANE ADDAMS TELLS STORY
OF DEVIL BABY TO WOMEN
IBv AssocIated Press.

Chicago. June l6.-The story
of the devil baby of Hull House
was told by Jane Adams. head of
that social center today. to the con-
vention of the General Federation of
Woman's Clubs here. The story was
told in connection with the plea that
the women extend the hand of fellow
ship to immigrant women, especially
older women She said the origin of
the fairy stories seems to be with
primitive women. who invented them
to influence their brutal lords and
masters to gentler ways.
I'VE placed detectives to work on
the origin of the devil baby fairy
tale. We found two versions. ltal-
ian and Hebrew. The Italian version
is that a Christian girl married an
atheist. who as a elimination of an
assault on his wife declared that he
would rather have devil in the
house than his wife And When the
child was born, 1t was devil with
horns hoofs and tail" the story ran.
The lewis version differed little.
The detectives found immigration
mothers trying to persuade their
daughters against unorthodox or
doubtful conduct by threatening them
with impish progeny.

New Measure Will Provide Only
For Investigation; Will be
Adopted.

The municipal ownership ordi-
nance now before the city council
will not come to a vote this after
noon. The measure will be with
drawn and another ordiance which
will provide only for an investiga-
tion of the present gas and light
utilities, estimates on present or
prospective power sites, etc, will be
introduced.
Unquestionably it will he adopted.
As soon as this informa tion is in
the hands of the council there is no
doubt but that an election will be
called and the matter submitted to
the people. The information gained
by the investigation will place the
people in position to ballot intel
ligently on the question.
City Attorney Tupper is drafting
the new ordinance.
The good judgment of Mayor
Cherrineton and Commissioners Car
son and Holmburg prevented the
drastic municipal ownership meas
ure from passage.
There is hardly question but
that all the sponsors of the original
petition will approve of the plan to
withdraw their ordinance.

but the country is such that practi-
cally any branch or part OF the main
