~ EPARATE skirts are useful. While
- this has been tacitly acknowl-
~ edged, before this season they
have seldom achieved an entity. They
were usually merely skirts without
coats. Numbers of them this year
have been definitely designed to fill spe-
cial purposes, and have consequently
increased in beauty and usefulness.
Sport skirts are especially good. The
designers have utilized not only the
strong, serviceable English mixtures
but they have taken advantage OF the
obvious worth of the knitted sweaters
and sweater coats, and have made skirts
Of the same materials. Thus, one may
find silk tricot skirts, and skirts OF that

A silk tricot skirt in black and white

10 use the newest tools Of democracy

How many schools have teachers
councils? How many have students
self-government? I'll ask Mr.. A. Emer-
son Palmer. secretary OF the Board OF
Education.
The platform of the Teachers League
contains these planks:
THE Teachers League favors the in
stitution of school councils In the in
dvidual schools, on the most demo-
cratic basis, with view 10 encouraging
in the teachers the development OF in
dividuality, initiative, interest and
power; that teachers may be not merely
hearers, but doors also.
THE Teachers League stands for
democracy of opportunity for the child,
and therefore believes that sufficient
elasticity of syllabus requirements and
of class organization should be permit
ted 10 secure the complete adaptation
of the work OF teaching both as to mat
ter and method TO the capacities and
needs Of the children
There are forty-fve organizations %
teachers in the city. ! should be very
much interested 10 know how many Of
them have similar planks in their plat
forms.

the schools better than forty-slX dear,

But the nine will need TO be eXcep-
tionally qualified. No person should be
appointed 10 the Board OF Education
who has not proved that he has a
broad understanding of social cond-
tions and exact knowledge of methods
of social research.
The schools are the children's city,
and the people whom we put in control
Of the schools should be of as fine quail
ity. intellectually as we'll az morally,
as the men to whom we intrust the con-
troll of the city itself.

Court Holds Road
Cannot Refuse the
Liquor Shipments

CHICAGO. Oct. 22.-A permanent In
junction was issued today by Judge Car
penter of the United States district court
restraining officials OF the Chicago. Rock
Island & Pacific railway company from
refusing to accept and deliver constgn-
ments of liquor to points in Iowa and to
agents of the consienees on the written
order of the latter.
A plea against making the injunction
permanent was made yesterday by c. A.
Robbins, assistant attorney general OF
Iowa, on the ground that the court order
compes the railroad officials TO violate
the law of the state of Iowa, which
directs that liquor consignments must be
received by the consignees in person.
The order of the court provides that the
consignees must designate the drayman
or othor carrier who is to receive the
liquor and that the shipment must be
marked for personal use and private con-
sumption. The order also sets forth that
alaaraeprt. decided thf state or lava was
entitled to tho relief asked In the petition
of Intervention.
A temporary injunction was granted
