PLANTS FOR SHADY WINDOWS
By EsEN RExFoRp.

ny EDEN HEAFOHD.
II often happens that the woman
who loves plants has no sunny win
dows in which to grow them, and. un
der the impression that they cannot be
successfully grown without sunshine
ihe does not attempt their cultivation
thus depriving herself OF great deal
Of pleasure, especially in the winter.
There Is no good reason why the
lover of plants should be without their
company in the winter, provided, OF
course, that the temperature of the
rooms can be regulated to keep out
the frost, and some Of the plants that
can be grown in the windows that are
without sunshine are among our most
desirable ones for house culture.
First on the list would place the
Boston fern. Nearly everyone is fa-
miliar with this plant 1t requires only
the ordinary attention.
Give it soil of garden loan, with
enough coarse, sharp sand worked
into 1t to make 1t friable, liberal, but
not an excessive amount of water and
temperature varying several de-
grees above the frost point. and dfly-
one may be reasonably sure Of 'stics
cess with 1t.
1t does not do very well, however,
In steam-heated, gas-lighted rooms. No
plants will flourish under such condi-
tions, though many will live on indefi-
nitely under them.
The Aspidistra is about the only
plant would dare to recommend to
those living in rooms heated and light
ed as mentioned above.
This plant has an almost iron con
stitution, which enables it to withstand
influences that would soon kill most
plants.
II seems to care nothing for the sun
shine, and therefore is excellently
adapted to cultivation in sunless
rooms
II not subject to the debilitating eff
feet of steam heat. it will make
most luxuriant growth, and its rich.
dark leaves will afford a vast amount
of pleasure.
While Il is able to withstand I'M
favorable conditions better than other
plants, it Is always grateful for good
care, and the plants that are cared for
well are always the ones that give the
best satisfaction. keep in mind.
English Ivy is an old favorite.
rwined UP about window, it is
beautiful sight to see. know of no
vine having more attractive foliage.
Its dark. rich leaves have just the
thick, leathery texture plant should
have to resist the effect of dry air and
lust. Dust need never be allowed to
accumulate on 1t, however.
Dust the vine every day You need
not be afraid OF injuring the foliage.
Some of the finest specimens of it I |
have ever seen have never had
glimpse of sunshine. Give it soil of |
garden loan.
Have its pot well drained; water
moderately. Be on the lookout for

were sold for different boats of the
excursion.
Miss Agnes Bates, 2318 S. Turner
av., would not talk to a reporter Of
her experiences at the Western Elec-
trio for fear she would lose her job.
Here is her story as told by friend:
Miss Bates did not want to go to
the picnic. There were lots of girls
who did not want to go because they
were afraid of the water. They were
also afraid they would lose their jobs
if they did not go. Talk was common
in the shop that all who did not go
would be fired"
In the catastrophe Miss Bates
proved herself a heroine. When the
Old tub toppled she and her compan-
ion, Miss Pine Keeran, 2253 S. AL
bany av., fell between the decks. Miss
Bates grabbed the side rail as she
fell. Miss Keeran cIutched Miss
Bates skirt. When Miss Bates
thought she could hang on no longer
her skirt pulled of and Miss Keeran
plunged to death. A moment later the
railing broke and Miss. Bates went
into the water.
Miss Bates went down twice, then
grabbed a rod sticking out Of the
deck. Two men tried to take the rod
from her. She fought them of. Then
she held two women up until rescue
came, and tied ropes around them be-
fore she accepted rope herself.

buying tickets.

EVIDENCE GROWS THAT WESTERN ELECTRIC
NFOREMEN FORCED EMPLOYEES ON EXCURSION

A short while ago the following
notice appeared on Western Elec-
trio Co. bulletin board: Ninety
seven per cent were on the picnic last
year; make it 100 per cent this year"
The day before the picnic tickets
could be bought from Western Elec-
trio employees for as low as rs cents.
eve don't want to go, but we had
to buy them" was the explanation.
The Hawthorne club is supposed
to be an organization of employees of
the Western Electric. The employees
pay their dues. The superintendent
are elected to important offices. Many
say the principal object of the Haw-
thorne club is to crush unionism. A
union man must lay low at the W. E. .
Now States Atty Hoyne has dis
covered that the Hawthorne club was
to have been given a rebate by the
boat company, which in the case of
the Eastland alone would have
amounted to 1925 if $500 tickets
were collected at the gangway. The
Hawthorne club seems to be prin-
cipaIly a foremen's organization.
Hoyne has in his possession a re-
bate contract sent to Chas. J. Malm-
ros, chairman of the Western Elec-
tries picnic organization, and signed
by w. K. Greenbaum, general man
ager, Indiana Transportation Co.,
which chartered the Eastland for the
excursion.
In substance it says: ''In considera-
ton of your paying 81 per adult
ticket we will allow commission of
421b cents on each ticket if $500 or
more are sold. If $500 are sold we
will allow As cents per ticket. If
