Tie smelling committee appointed
by the recent Legislature made itself
ridiculous by bringing Senator Stan
ley from Washington to ihterrogate
him about permitting dog belonging
to his little sons to eat the scraps from
the tables of the convicts in the PEN
itentiary. He pleaded guilty to the
charge of thus grating from the
State The dog was present to the
boys. but could not be kept at the
mansion. so the Warden kept the dog
at the prison for awhile.
All that committee found was that
the State prisons and asylums have
been run economically in old build
ings which the Legislatures have per-
sistently refused TO discard or replace.

To meet Dr. Shannon is to know him,
and after one has sat with him in his
study for few moments conversation
he realizes that here is a man who
although coming from the east, is so
enthusiastic over the city Of his adop-
ton that he declares 1t is here he ex-
poets to spend the remainder OF his
life.
Ideal Life Here.
"In Chicago" he told a reporter of

Serious in Religion.
''Chicago is wonderful in so many
ways that it is a constant revelation
to me. There is warmth here that

A Review Of Fashion

THE DAY OF INDIVIDUALITY is
TODAY. This is the day when women
are seeking to dress according to their
own type. rather than make a style
become them without rhyme or reason.
FRoCkS for women for the debutante
and for the Sub-Deb are as fascinating
as variety can make them. Some are
independently tailored for Ave. wear.
Others are fashioned with delightful
insouciance for the more formal hours
of the day.
SUITS, too. are perversely different,
one from the other. Long slim sill
houtted coats have dignified admira-
ton for the piquant Elton as well as
for the youthful boxcoat of hip length.

Yet each of us could well de-
