The word novel carries quite dlf i ft rent meanings to different people. To some it suggests the sort of story which is sought and lound la the pop- ular fiction or semi-fiction magazine*, the kind in which a distracted heroine may be rescued from death sought by consequence of this completion the aster along our bike front is as sani- tary aa It can be made, It is time for the park board to atop dreaming of a municipal bathing bench and bath- house sad do something. Before this sewage was diverted, the board could hardly be blamed for procrastinating a little in this im- portant matter for the water was at the lake, a feat Interesting because ot Its, melodramatic quality rather than the skill in athletics which such a jump suggests. To those whose pleas- ure in a novel Is spoiled by a more strict attention to detail and a closer adherence to plausibility, the "Just as good as fiction" will meet with little favor. To those who love a story be- cause of its truth and human quali- ties, these works of travel, of biogra- phy and autobiography, and of ad venture, offer Infinite opportunity of times unfit for bathing, but now that Pleasure. mm* OAXF FREE WATER Hereafter when you are planning to fer this stumbling block has been re- moved, the time for "puttlng-off" is past. The superintendent of the North Shore Juvenile Protective association, Mr. Howard Moore, presented facts -the YfltHP board at the! meeting while endeavoring to get them to take some action in regard to this matter clearly and forcibly showing them that the village could far better afford these municipal improvements than It could afford to be without ibem. Hardly a day passes but some one Is carried out by the undertow and drowned. Fortunately this has never happened in Wilmette, but it is aa likely to happen here as elsewhere, especially now that the condition of the water along the lake front is so much Improved and the number of bathers will in consequence be greatly increased. No matter what the cost of these municipal improvements may be, it could never compare with the loss of a single life, and If this vil- lage cannot afford to furnish its bath- ers adequate protection, the beaches should be closed to all. t---- Bo far, we have spoken only of the danger from loas of life, but Mr. Moore in his plea to the village coun- til spoke ot another and possibly a greater danger, the matter trf moral*. This Is a question which should be of vital Interest to every one in this vil- lage, especially the parents.

The unprotected grade crossing con- tinues to claim its victims, sacrifices to the carelessness and indifference of the public, and to the negligence or giyed of railway officials.---------------- take a long trip which necessitates your dining aboard a diner, plau ahead of time so that you will not run short of cash. Why? Read this: Railroad's began to economize a few years ago. They were required by legislative enactments to withdraw passes, and from that beginning they have acquired the habit of withdraw- ing various services that formerly were free. Today the western railroads will extend their economy program to the dining-car service. Bread and butter, formerly furnished free to all patrons of the car. Will be charged for at it cents a portion.' Ever since dining cars came Into vogue on American railroads the bread platter and the butter plate have been free institutions. Out the old order changeth. Now those who dine on railroad trains will bring their own provender or pay the company's price. Tbe edict has been signed by each of the iarge lines operating westward from Chicago. The Inspiration for their action WB3 found in a similar move made by east- ern railroads about two months ago. tt jK & THE SUNDAY CltOWDS. The Wilmette police say that Sun- day is anything but a day of rest for them. Since the elevated railroad has exploited the attractive features of "Beautiful Wilmette by the Lake," hundreds of people from Chicago flock' to the village on Sunday. They make a bee line for the lake, Insist ia-troa-J--CBJiiK-ILMML July 22. (Chaa. J. Stonequlst to Olga S. Ber- , telsen) ..................----- Evanston. V. M. William's add., lot 11. block 3.
