JUDGE BLAMES YOU, FOLKS
Judge Mary Bartelme, in an adj
dress before the Univ. of Chicago,
blamed parents for the errors of girls.
Here are the causes as she gives
them:
Indulgent parents, who believe
their daughters can do no wrong.
Indifferent parents, who don't
care.
Dunken parents.
Immoral parents.
Cruel parents.
Greedy parents, who take all their
children earn and allow them no
pleasure.
Ignorant parents, whom the girl
can deceive.
ignorance in sex matters.
Improper or inadequate living
quarters.
Dance halls.
Cabarets.
Dances where liquor is sold.
Motion pictures.
The movies came in for special
censure. They influence more than
10 per cent of the girls who 60
wrong, Judge BarteIme said. They
get the notion they can become
movie queens. In a few weeks they
learn they cannot, and, realizing
what they have gone through, try to
take their own lives"

Howells Compliments Ade

w. D. Howells in Harper's Magazine.
 The far-western humor came east in huge number-eleven boots, but there was something in it's rude plunge which woke the sense of brotherhood in whoever heard it. It lad somehow come to stay, and it has stayed in the middle west; but in Chicago the refining grace of the New England spirit also abides from it's first coming. East and west have met there in the hunor of Mir. Ade whose de- mocracy seems instinctive, and who ap- parently cannot help choosing the best phrase for the aspect of the life he wishes us to realize His fables In slang have this inspirations; they have established his universality and they must be very broad-based to stand so level with the common perception and acceptance.
 His humor is not only a far advance upon the earlier western humor in ma- terial, but 1t Is a reversion to the still earlier humor of the east in refinement of form.
