Geobgb Adb is giving evidence of his great versatility in becom- ing a student in the department of agriculture at Purdue University. The humorist and playwright is to develop into a farmer, and not a mere tiller of the soil, but a bona fide seientifie farmer. That is one way of viewing his registration for the course in corn and live •took. On the other hand, Mr. Ade may be gathering literary mate- rial, or, it may be, he is perpetrating a joke. . ♦ ♦ W:'4. *t'*'"" THIS IN MASSACHUSETTS The bill introduced by RkpbsbeKtativb Prime in the Massachu- setts legislature providing that all proposals of marriage be submitted in writing, "that they may serve as a basis for a lawsuit," seems to be precaution slightly overdrawn. It is hard to imagine a romantic maiden, ready to yield to her lover's entreaties, murmuring, "Put it in writing, please." It is equally difficult to see why this added stumbling block should be placed in the path of the young man ready to enter into the bonds of matrimony. - v# ♦ '♦ 4'"#â- ; ..â- â-  3UFFRAGE IK DENMARK The lower house of the Danish parliament has voted by an over- whelming majority to grant full suffrage to women, a circumstance item which advocates of equal suffrage ahonld derive encouragement. Six years ago women in Denmark were not onlyjnnable to vote on any question, but they were even debarred from service on beards of public charities. Under the conditions of the bill, if It becomes a law, all citizens of good character and above the age of twenty-five, except paupers, may have a voice in the making of the laws by which they are governed. • , :.:&.&*$.*. '•AFtimA^ . * The inconvenience of having to carry parcels to be mailed to the postoffice seems to be an obstacle irhieit is not insurmountable, consid- ering the number of packages received in the early days of the parcel post service. Almost one and a naif million packages have been re- ceived at the Chicago postoffice in the fortnight since the department was organised, a showing sufBciently large to warrant the assumption that the people are glad to have the parcel post, and that it is filling it want felt for a long time. It is not an essential feature of this new facility for the transmission of commodities that the express companies are to be done away with. Quite the contrary. There is need for both, and it is to be hoped that the competition introduced by the postal service will engender better and more efficient service in our various express companies. y-^..y-.^%^$:.<- , '^.;,,c -: -;r^;^'f WANT PURE WATEfe FOR WHQLE SHORE r:tri|iyW^^b The body of Mr. Geo. M. Sargent arrived in Evanston on Friday after? noon from 'Atlantic City, where the deceased came to his death. The fu- neral was held from the late home at 1502 Hinman avenue, at 2:30 Sun- day afternoon. Mr. Sargent leaves a host of friends in Evanston and Chicago. He was a member of a large number of lodges and orders here. He was a member of the Evanston Club, of the Glenn View and St. Augustine Golf Clubs. He. was also a member of the Union League Club of Chicago. Mr. Sargent had always cherished the memories of hia native state, and was at one time president of the Society of Sons of Maine in Chicago. He was also vice-president of the New England So- ciety. The deceased was also well known among business men. In 1901 he waa vice-president of the national association of manufacturers from II* linolB, and in 1904 was a member of the committee on commerce of the National Business Men's League. He was a lifelong Republican and in re- ligion was a Methodist. For years the newspapers under the management of the editor of this publication have argued for the purificaUan of the water sup- ply of the whole north shore by diverting ill sewage and waste from the source of supplyâ€"Lake Michigan. ?;f rri'T-r- â-  It is true that so far as Evanston alone is concerned its water supply is to be purified by the installation of a 12,000,000 gallon filter system, and tins, lor the present, answers Wilmette's problem, for the water for that village is supplied through Evanston's mains, but Evanston, WHmette and aU the other towns on the north shore have a larger public duty than the mere purification of their own drinking water. They owe it to each other and to Chicago to divert their sewage at the earliest possible mobient, not «i% to cleanse their own water, but to make less offensive tile water that» pumped through all the intakea where there » not a nktdei^ nltiration plan The Sanitary district of Chicago fr the natural outlet for all the sewage of the north shore and thk Daily Nbwb hopes the agita- tion now being made hjr Vte North ffliore Citizens' association will result in the extension of the canal to all the towns, at least as far north as the Cook *0iin1y.1ihWJM^ .: "\-:^vr 5 MRS. FLORENCE ICELLY NEWS ARTIST LEAVES. Mr. Jay Jerome Williams, who has been working for the City News Bu- reau of Chicago in Evanston and the surrounding suburbs for the past two months, and who has made a host of friends in the. mean while, is leaving for Chicago, today, presumably to con- tinue bis work with one of the large dailies. By his many stories, which ap- peared in the Chicago papers, Mr. Wil- liams was known as a hard worker, and there is no doubt of his success in his new field. S*FI «W mm 'T nil ST COM PA. isswf?

The work of Mrs. Wooley is for the colored people. She gives her entire time without remuneration to its management Both she and her husband, .Dr. Wooley, subscribed liberally to the parchaae of a home for this purpose. The settlement waB founded nearly nine years ago and has proved a great help to the colored people. It pro- motes last and amicable relations be- tween the white and colored races. It aims to remove disabilities from which the latter suffer in their civil, political and industrial life. This set* tlement establishes a center of friend- ly helpfulness and a place to teacn co-operation with the whites to the end of right living and a higher dti- sfra. Wooley is a woman of much culture and through her interest and work with the negro race has come to have a thorough understanding of their needs and ambitions. A quota-' tk>n from Booker T.
