The Public Forum was made part
of The Day Book for the sake OF CIV
ing The Day Book readers a chance
to openly express their views on the

received slews of letters to The

been signed, the writer being willing
that his or her signature be used at
the end of the article when printed.
That is the way The Day Book best
likes to get them. A letter looks
much stronger when persons real

dress is a good thing to print, too.
In the future we would earnestly
suggest that all writers to The Pub

who is writing the article is not back

There are cases, however, where it
might be better for the writer's sake
for us to only print his or her ini-

and we will use only initials, holding
the name and address in the office.
When you get something on your

pupils to listen to the reading of the
Protestant bible. Pretending to stand
for liberty, they do not have enough
genuine interest in its defense to dis
eliminate between a reactionary like
Bishop Quigley of Chicago and a
progressive like Bishop Ryan of st.
Paul, and condemn Unfortunately
an enemy of liberty like Roger Sulli-
van and staunch defender OF liberty
like Frank P. Walsh.
At time when progressives OF all
creeds and of none are inclined to
unite in an attack on fundamental
wrongs these takers come to the aid
of despotic privilege with cry to
divide the progressive forces and to
substitute for the fight on monopoly
a fight over a matter that does not
properly belong in politics at all. Lib
erty is as much in danger from the
self-styled guardians of liberty as
it is from clerical reactionaries.-

a sickly boy who lived in the 18th

steam and its power is an open book
to mankind.
We suggest to III. F. and others
that considerable benefit may be de-

Steam is water-vapor - water in
