Girl Bares Her Soul to Woman Judge

By Judge MARY BARTELME of

Chicago Circuit Court

OUR boys are not taught responsibility as they, used to be. There are no woodpiles and chickens today. The boys ought to be taught TO MEND FURNITURE, TO SCRUB WINDOWS, to make simple iceboxes—

things that could be used at home. They are proud of responsibility and self control when they are properly approached. GIRLS CAN BE APPEALED TO THROUGH THEIR PRIDE

TOO. BUT A WOMAN JUDGE CAN DO SO MUCH MORE WITH A LITTLE GIRL THAN A MAN. I CAN PUT MY ARM AROUND HER AND CONVINCE HER OF MY SYMPATHY AS IT WOULDN’T BE FITTING FOR A MAN JUDGE TO DO. AND I AM NEVER SHOCKED, NO MATTER WHAT SHE TELLS ME. I MAY SHIVER INWARDLY, BUT OUTWARDLY I SMILE. Just as the girl instinctively trusts the woman police officer, so she bares her soul to the woman judge.

Home Cooking To Blame For Many Diseases

By Mrs. CHARLOTTE PERKINS GILMAN, Author-Sociologist

Author- Sociologist

STOP COOKING FOR JOHN! THE HOME OF TODAY IS A PERMANENT CHECK UPON THE GROWTH OF HUMANITY. EVERY OTHER BUSINESS HAS DEVELOPED FASTER THAN THE ONE WE DO AT HOME. WE HEAR SO MUCH ABOUT. HOME COOK ING! THE RACIAL IDEA ABOUT HAVING PRIVATE COOKS PREVAILS AMONG MEN. BUT THERE ARE MORE DISEASES WHICH COME FROM BAD COOKING AT HOME THAN FROM ANY OTHER CAUSE. THE TENDER MASS OF SENTIMENT ABOUT WHAT WE CALL HOME COOKING IS THE WORST KIND OF TOMMYROT. I HAVE SEEN ON THE TABLES -IN MANY HOMES BREAD WHICH WOOLD EE A DISGRACE TO THE WORST BAKERS. s* * The growing -trade at the delicatessen stores is proof that the movement is already well st-iried to -free woman from her slavery. One big kitchen can do the work of fifty small kitchens; one ,cook can pres pare food for. thirty persons; three cooks for inanv hundreds.

Americans Extravagant When Uncle Sam Pays

By Senator MOSES E. CLAPP of

Minnesota

IDO not know what will become of this country unless there is a general revolt among the people against national extravagance. I do not know how we are to meet the demand for appropriatipfis. Everybody in this country, individually, tvolild lessen appropriations, and yet about everybody is interested in some project—especial It mer itoi'ious— -1 hat requires moheV. c Of course there are demands', but when NEARLY EVERY CITIZEN OF THE EXITED STATES IS BACK OF SOME 1 FLAX which to his mind is the one niefitorious plait it makes it almost impossible for congress jo resist-thc pressure. •I , I HAVE SOMETIMES FELT THAI THIS. THING WOULD CO ON UNTIL, BETWEEN THE BURDENS OF TAXATION AND THE DEPRECIATION OF BON&S. WE WOULD FIND A GENERAL REVOLT AMONG THE PEOPLE.

HOME WAS NEVER LIKE THIS.

Since mother’s bought a cookbook# The grub don’t taste the same An" everything'we get to eat His some outlandish name. I'd rather have the simple food She Vised to feed Us on Some side meat an' pertators B’iled With their jackets on. Green apple pie an’ doughnuts Is good enough for me, With griddle cakes an' honey When the parson comes to tea. I'd like a good old pot roast— I wouldn't care how tough— For my jaws -don’t get no exercise On this here fancy stuff. I don’t believe it's nourislun'. A nun can’t hold enough To keep him gpin' half a day Of this newfangled stuff I don’t know much 'bout cookin’. An’ perhaps ma ain’t to blame. But since she bought that cookbook The grub don’t taste the same. —Buffalo News
