 Emerson says. "a lady is serene" doctors tell us that hurry like worry is death to. good looks and an enemy to health as we'll The people who accomplish the most in the world are those who plan their work well and serenely accomplish it. Did you ever time yourself on a certain piece of work; for example the making and frying of a rule of doughnuts? If so you will know the time needed and will know what to plan for. Of course. there are always the unex- pected Interruptions which we can not plan on. but it is wise to know the length of time it takes to do cer- tain pieces of work. If mistresses had a better understanding of these things there would be more peace and harmony in the household. A maid who had a two weeks washing under way should not be asked to prepare a dinner for invited guests. It is such inconsiderate women who are helping to keep the servant problem still un- solved. and are always looking for a servant. If one is possessed with the precious power of concentration. use an alarm clock and set it at the time that the dinner is to be started or the bread put into or taken out of the oven. It takes but an instant to pro- vide this security and it so relieves the mind that the whole attention may be put upon what ever work is at hand.
 Tapioca baked with sour apples and served with sugar and cream is an- other simple and wholesome dessert.

SERcoMBE WOULD GIVE LABOR |
CONTROL OF SCHOOL BOARD
To rid the schools of the evil which
an appointed board of education car
ries with it, several remedies are pro-
posed by Parker H. Sercombe, former
statistician of the board, who had
an opportunity to see the school sys-
TEN from the inside. Sercombe was
dropped when he grew too warm.
Morton MacCoFmac, a Thompson
henchman in the 7th ward, displaced
him.
In a letter to Thomas ]. Lynch,
chairman of the schools committee
of the city council, he asked chance
to demonstrate the possibilities of a
new organization of the school sys-
TEN before the committee.
His ideas are:
That the school board is too big
fol. usefulness.
That it is run by party politics be-
cause its members are appointed by
the mayor. This hurts the schools.
That the only reward a trustee gets
for his labor is publicity. The school
board is therefore under the finger
of the trust press. Big business con-
trolls the trust press.
He suggests board of nine mem
bers, to be appointed for three years
by lottery system after they have
qualified by examination.
Each trustee should be paid $4,000
a year to insure his giving time to
the position.
Because about 80 per cent of the
children in schools have laboFing peo-
pie for parents, the labor class should
be in majority on the board He
suggests four labOTing men, two en-
plOyers, one doctor, one lawyer and
one educator.
A superintendent could be picked
by this board.

HoYNE INVESTIGATES ALLEGED
PAYMENTS FOR PROTECTION"
The stink with which Mayor
Thompson said the police depart
ment reeks is being stirred up again.
Something seems to have gone
wrong with the working plan be-
tween collectors and prostitutes, by
which the women paid for protection.
The matter is in the hands of States
Atty Hoyne, who is going after it in
a manner that has gotten some pO-
lice officials excited.
John LabOw, head attendant, Oak
Forest infirmary, and Geo. Bagg, an
inmate, are under arrest. The police
made the arrest, but Hoyne is inves-
tigating independently.
LabOw is charged with taking
money from women fiatkeepers to
protect them from prosecution.
Myra Miller, $40 N. Clark St; Vio-
let Jones, another woman and two
men were arrested in a raid on Mrs.
Miners apartment last August.
The story told Hoyne is that La
bow appeared in morals court and
told Violet Jones he needed $25 ito
fix the judge. Then Mrs. Miller took
the party to a restaurant and gave
LabOw $40, HOyne was told.
Later Labow is said to have made
proposition to Ethel Rice, 118
Grand av., to grant her protection
from police interference for $25 a
month for "Mr. Higgins" and 81 a
month for a messenger, it is said.
She told Chief Healey. When the
messenger, Bagg, arrived he was ar
rested. The arrest of LaboW fol-
lowed.
Labow's defense is that he accept
ed the money merely to pass it to
Higgins. Hoyne's whole staff is
searching for Higgins and the police
say they are.

REMARKABLE RECORD
ON BAGGAGE CLAIMS

The record made by the Nashville,
Chattanooga & st. Louis Railway the
past year in the handling Of baggage
on its lines is truly remarkable one,
when one stops to consider the thous-
ands Of pieces of baggage handled
within a twelve month period on a
railroad.
The annual report recently submit
ted to the stockholders shows that
during the year the loss and damage
claims paid on baggage was only
$309.1S as against $1,60990 the pre-
viOus year. 1t is doubted if any other
railroad in the country can show such
record.
While the payments for loss and
damage to freight showed a material
reduction last year as compared with
the previous year, the claim DEPART
ment through a campaign for better
packing and distinct marking OF
freight, expects to still further reduce
payments Of this character, and has
asked the cooperation of all shippers
to this end.
