FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16. 1914. *PJBACB» I It has been suggested that the an- cient form of greeting, "Peace," be sub- for the popular form of saluta- i today. If we were to greet our friends in the morning with the clas- |'stc greeting, if the call to the tele- phone were to be so answered. If intro- duction to strangers were to. be so acknowledged, the originator of the I suggestion believes we would, ia the fullness of time, come to think pence and finally so to act.

By a majority of one veto Win- astkft has declined to turn over the control of tint part of Sheridan road within its borders to the Lincoln Park board and has thus, for the time at least, failed to avail herself of the Importunity which Wilmette with greater foresight has seised,, The re- sult of the referendum veto in Wln- neta has come about, we are Informed, j»d as It seems correctly, by a wave 'of suspicion ntiid distrust set in mo- tion with the deliberate intention of ac- complishing just what hue happened. The people who emit the 6S7 negative votes were largely Influenced by the four of an Increase In their taxes out of proportion to the good the village would receive from giving the Lincoln Park board jurisdiction over the atrip of Sheridan road now controlled by them. The fear Is not well founded, for in * * m WHY DISCRIMINATE? Tim Hew York school board fe brought to the necessity of dismissing all married women from the schools of the city. A repetition of the ease of the Mrs. PaxoTTo, who protested the rigfetof ti»e board to ^ the number of teachers In the public schools because of "neglect of duty" when approaching motherhood made her attendance to her duties hi the schoolroom impossible Is the di- rect incentive. The action of the board has brought about their ears a storm of protest, a demonstration In which the voices of educators mre coo- splcuous by their absence. They knew that the necessary division of interest which the rearing of children and the maintenance cf a home neces sitatc, militate against the giving of the best possible service in the school- Those who take a sentimental view all the municipalities through which the drive passes the governing bodies must approve nil taxing propositions. Winnetka's village board would have been no exception In this regard. We havo experimented sufficiently In Individual control of the drive along the lake by the cities and towns through which it passes. We have demonstrated to everybody's satisfac- tion that that is the way to keep Sheridan road In about as bad condi- tion as It can well maintain and still lay claim to being a road. As n pleasure drive, Sheridan road, as It has been In the years of the recent past, has been a complete failure In spite of all the natural advantages end beauties which It possesses. Under the impetus of the work done by the Lincoln Park board and through the Interest which has thus been created, the drive has every prospect of being immediately im- proved. Rogers Park is now engaged in putting In e pavement similar to that used by the Lincoln Park board. Cranston Is distinctly favorable to surrendering the control of her part of the drive to the board and it la expected that definite action will •con of these two women whose maternal duties have, in the eyes of the mem- bers, lessened their capacity to teach, e deprivation of the married women In the ranks of teachers of the right "to fulfil the functions of their woman- hood." They fear the result of depriv- ing the children of the schools of the Influence of wives and mothers, appar- ently forgetting the fact that the child is a school child only a small part of the day and has the right to expect to be subjected to the influence of its own mother through the leisure hour* of the day. It is rather a pity to make an issue of the employment of potential mothers to teach In the public schools. It would have been better to allow tho case to rest, as it does with men, the matter of marriage being entirely out- side the question. Capability and op- portunity to attend to his business are the essential features of a man teach- er. Why should not the same rule be applied to women?

The nc^. meeting is to be at the home of Ger- trude Rowntreo In Kenllworth. This society is the literary society for girls of the first two years of hlgn scnool The Zenobians are still enjoying their plain gold Z pins and are plan- ning again to have such programs that victory in debate and oratory with the boys of New Trier and elsewhere will be as easy as ever. Mr. Barnett Speaks. Mr. Barnett of Gl'encoe addressed the school at assembly Monday morn- ing on his experiences in getting away from the field of war this sum- mer. In company with his family, in- cluding two women and two boys, he escaped from the Austrian Tyrol. where be was when the war broke out. He expected at one time to havo to leave In an ox-cart, but was finally be taken by the city council to that sad. Here In Wilmette we have already disposed of the question to our satis- faction; we are willing to do our part towards making of. Sheridan road the beautiful drive It can be made to be and content to be a pert In the sys- tem which will give to the district of the lake shore north of Chicago a na- tural drive second ia beauty to no ether drive In the world. Gloaeee has taken confirmative ac- "PIGS AND BABIES." At first glance at the subject of the sermon preached by Jenkins Lloyd Jones yesterday, there seems to be a reversal in order uncomplimentary to the sons and daughters of men. That It was Intentional appears from a sen- tence from the address. "Thousands upon thousands of babies in Chicago today are subjected to housing condi- tions, malnutrition and Inadequate feeding, to which no thrifty, self-re- specting farmer In Illinois would sub- ject his pigs," we are told. And we have ample evidence that the charge la true. Even the unthrifty farmer would look Into conditions which depleted his stock of pigs as preventable die eases thin the ranks of babies born in all our large cities, where housing con- ditions are bad. One cannot imagine such an absolute lack of interest in saving the lives of animals which have a definite financial market value as has characterised our treatment of the infant mortality question until the very recent past. Even now. It is the very few who are interested in con- serving the Infant life or the country. How long will it be before we shall, in our thought, place babies on a higher plane of importance than pigs? * * * - Of the thirteen hundred Inmates of Society Notes, Tech met last Wednesday for organi- zation. Henry Grlswold, 1915. of Wil- mette was elected president. Meet- ings are to be held every first aad third Wednesday of the month. A committee was appointed to arrange for a program. Tech is the society for boys especially Interested in scientific matters. Mr. Phillips and Mr. Beise- meier of the manual training and mechanical drawing departments are its faculty advisors. The Senate met last Thursday for organization. A list of new members is the largest Chicago and is work in the city sad probably the largest in the state of Illinois. Mr. Batey was once a very respected man and held a high position a-, con- struction ingmiiiii in work in nearly every country- la the vrorld. aad today his name can be seen on the pedestal fa the depot of the Wabash rafkorvJ at Pittsburgh as coastruetioa engi- neer for that road, bat as Mr. Batey says. "He forget himself ae west to the getter aad one night as a drunken bam be wandered into the Bible Rescue mis- sion on Madison street, and there was son to meet, converted. Soon afterward he became superintendent of the Dan Martin Memorial mission, which recently has changed its name to the Ban Batey mission, by tine action of the board of directors, among whom are George W. Dixon of the Arthur Dixon Trans- fer company, and other prominent men of Chicago. Undoubtedly there will be a large number of people who heard Mr. Batey whea he made bis first visit to Wilmette who will avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing him again aad their friends who did not hear him will be induced to come Of #*.* It has been claime! by Mtlr- of high repute as weir ar clos., followers of Important theatric ~1 cv-nta and readers of novels of extracrdl. uy popularity that "Oao Day," a seruel to Elinor Glyn's "Tiree Weeks," Is the closest, .approach to the Immortal and officers is.not yet available-.

His address was enjoyed immensely by all the stu- dents. Departmental Notes Miss Harriet A. Lee of the English department is able again to resume her duties, after an absence of three weeks in the Evanston hospital. Miss Elizabeth Case of Hubbard Woods, a graduate of Wellesley college, has filled her place admirably and has left the work, in good shape for its regular Instructor. Miss Bedker, Miss Grover and Mr. Childs are busy preparing addresses for conferences to be held next month at Champaign and Chicago. The experiment of omitting morn- ing roll call in the session rooms and of having instead a scrupulously care- ful roll call in every first period class Is working well. At OR. WILSON HONORED, a meeting of the Wilmette Min- tho penitentiary at Jolict. twei ve hun- dred have signed s petition asking for state prohibition, recognising alcohol as one of the potent causes of their fall. The document has significance mainly as a testimony from these who know its baleful Influence against the traffic which has accomplished their downfall.

"Paid In Full" will be the splendid offering at the Wilmette theater next Thursday, Oct. 22.
