The Evening Chit-Chat , By RUTM CAMERON
Yesterday I published some of the answers that my readers gave to the query. "What kind ot man does a woman like best?" and promised more ioday. j Here goes. "Yon ask what kind of man woman ' likes. Let's put It, instead, Why does a woman lore a manT and the answer Is simply. 'Because she believes he
needs her.
man love is mother love. When a woman feels that a man needs her own particular self to round out his life to watch over and guard him, to understand and help, she Is going to love him, no matter who he Is or who she Is."

"The man I like best 1b manly and

Big men. big In mind, body and soul; clean, clean in thought and word as well as morals. Successful men, well dressed, well-groomed and smooth of

A man you can look up to, but that looks up to you and never jokes about women or speaks lightly of them.' "You ask the great public what qualities women like best In men.

lhat have been delegated to school boards in Indiana. Judge John H. Gillett
eaid the other day: "The legislature has thrown safeguards about most of I the other city and county offices, but it seems to have forgotten that the school boards in the larger cities have the handling of hundreds of thousands
of dollars in the course of a year and are under very few restrictions."
So great is the power of the school board that it can act with
the same freedom as the individual, and if it cares to do so may persistently defy the wishes of a majority of the, people of a community. Under those circumstances too great caution cannot be exercised in the selection of the
THE CALUMET H ABB OB PLAN.
The people of Hammond ought to be interested in. the plans for the de
velopment of Calumet lake under the provisions of the Kleeman bill, for the
reason that exactly the same opportunities are presented for the development of Wolf lake aB a harbor. If the Calumet lake project is feasible the
Wolf lake project is all the more feasible.' If the opposition of the Chicago
real estate board to the Calumet harbor project succeeds, then the development of the Wolf lake project will be the logical step. So the matter is put
squarely up to Governor Deneen of Illinois. If he signs the Kleeman bill
Illinois will be provided with the greatest inland harbor on the southern
shore of Lake Michigan. It he refuses to sign the bill this same harbor project will be carried out alone similar lines in Indiana. Th Kleeman hill

After this wide chanel is cut through and the slips are dredged out, the rest of the lake is to be filled in and used for factory sites. It is a project similar to that which has been proposed for the development of Wolf lake. If the governor signs the bill it will mean an enormous industrial and real estate
development In the immediate vicinity of Hammond. It Is a project in which
the entire Calumet region is Interested. The jealous Chicago real estate
board and certain newspapers are opposing the Calumet harbor. The opposition is explained by the fact that Shedds, the Calumet Canal & Dock Co.
