MRS YOUNG, GREATEST WOMAN EDUCATOR,
 SIXTY-NINE TO-DAY.

Mrs. Ella FIagg Young, who was
 recently restored to the superinten-
 dence. of the Chicago public school
 system, in which position she has
 won worldwide renown. will begin
 her seventieth year day. Eclla. FIagg
 was the maiden name of the woman
 who has won a place in the forefront among the educators of America, and who has held it despite the bitter op-s
 position of some mere men She
 was born in Buffalo on Jan. 5, 1S45,
 but the greater part of her youth was
 spent in the Windy City, and she was.
 educated in Chicago high and normal
 schools She has been 8 teacher for
 more than half a century, beginning in 1862. For her teaching was a.
 1fre-work. and not the occupation of a few years, and the spirit and ability she brought to her work forced rec ognition- She held several iInportant positions, including. that of profess sor of education at the University of Chicago. before she was made super fntendent of Chicago schools in 1909.
 She was the first woman ever chosen as the head of the educational system
 of a great city. Her salary is $10,000 a year, and, in the opinion of the voc men of Chicago, she hasssmore than. earned it. She has saved the city much more than her saIary by her bit. ter fight against the text book men. Last September Mrs. Young resign ed her position because of the oppo-. sitfon of a few male members of the board of education, but a. public dem onstration in her behalf led her to re- consider the matter. Last month the board failed to re-e1ect her, but the power of Chicago's united womanhood caused the board to change its mind.
 Mayor Carter Harrison was the avow- ed champion of Mrs. Young, and sym the great masses of the people of Chi icago at the deposition of the aged wo- man educator. All Chicago was aroused, and, as result, the anti 1 Young members of the board resigned and Mrs. Young was triumphantIy re- turned to office.
 Probably no woman ever faced 8 more difficult problem than Mrs. Young when she undertook the su- perintendence Of the Chicago schools. She was beset by politicians who had relatives or friends to be locked af- ter.,' and by agents fo1. book con cerns who considered that a woman superintendent would be "easy'', Both politicians and book men were very much mistaken. In consequence
 Mrs. Young found herself subjected to thousand petty annoyances, while every possible obstacle was placed in her path. When she proposed that
 sex hygiene be taught in the Chicago high schools. the pious politicians held up their hands in holy horror. What, should young and innocent minds be thus corrupted It was an awful thought, to the politicians. and made them shudder with horror. Also, it was said that Mrs. Young was a mere thinking rnaehine." and l lacking in human sentiment and eno- ton. Also, she was woman. and therefore emotional. and incapable of 1 bringing to bear upon her duties those mighty powers of ratioeination which
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-01-15

belong solely to the masculine intel lect. They-tle po1iticianE--also all leged that Mrs. Young was so learned and high-browish that she could not understand and appreciate the needs of the infantile mind, and they added that she was old and entering upon the period of her second childhood.
 All of those oEojections. and many more. had no appeal to the women. nor to most of the men of Chicago. They preferred record to 8 pros- pectus, and Mrs. Younu had made a record such as had been equa1led by few of her predecessors.

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. SEA three.
cornered trade may be arranged with.
ia few days that will place Charlie
Doom, eX-manager and veteran catcher
of the Phillies with one Of the Western
clubs Of the National League. One of
the other two clubs interested in the
deal with the Phillies is the Cincinnati
Reds. Charlie HerzoG. manager Of the
Reds, stopped off in this city yesterday
To talk the matter over with President
Baker, but the latter IS i'll at his home
in Brooklyn, and this will hold Up the
deal for few days.
The proposed trade has not progressed
far enough TO permit OF the names of
the players being MADE known. but while
II Is admitted there Is q deal on, none
OF the officials OF the clubs are willing to
speak, because there are several angles
70 IT and all must be Strengthened out
before II can be completed. One of the
other players included In the trade with
Doom carries two-year contract az
pretty liberal salary, and as Doom has
declared he Will not sign unless he re-
ceivss as much as the Federal League
offered him, there IL q chance of the
trade falling through altogether
More than one club In the National
League would be glad to get Doom. but
his demand for such a large SALARY Is
making club owners bit shy Both

ranks OF organized baseball. and they
have been working hard 10 effect some
