With its approach the problem of earing for the unemployed assumes daily graver proportions, and no theory for its solu- tion to found which stands the teat of trial. • -'--T-^: 'T; According to the statement of Mr. Geobok Pauilin In a talk before the Political Equality league, we have with ha a quectton of thie employed which is no lew serious. . Evanston people know Mr. Paui.mn and appreciate the value of his opin- ion on matters relative to conditions in the Sanitary district. They will attach full worth, therefore, to the ex- pression of his opinion that "enough employes to save $l,ooo a day could be dropped without affecting the serv- ice." V A thousand dollars a day Is a con- sldcrable sum to pay for nothing or oven to help certain influential mem- bers of the Sanitary District board to take care of friends or relatives who might otherwise be compelled to earn a living at real work. It la commend- able to be philanthropic and charit- able, but there are other avenuea In which to direct the charitable impuls- world at large. developed a scheme for public begging for funds, usually by the exploitation of the charms and winning manners of young gfrKs, should lie heartily ashamed of the system so much abused in the name of doing good. Any practical work which is un- dertaken with a view of afford!ng benefit fee children deserves encourage- ment and generous support. Bat it should not he forwarded at the ex- pense of the modesty and fineness of feeling of girls scarcely more than children. The moral hurt to the young and pretty vendor of tags, less tan- gible though it may be. is still far more to lie regretted than whatever money returns the sacrifice may yield to worth. Mothers of daughters may be able to blind themselves to the real object in placing girls la the market place there to accost strangers, men and women, with a plea for help for their charity. Fathers are not unaware of the part that personal charm plays In the sale. If they think, they win object to that form of charitable work for their daughters. !!? 5K W COUNTERACTIVE TEACHING. One of the peace epigrams brought out by our day of prayer for peace had to do with the usclessness of praying for peace and endeavoring to develop ■M New Trier Jottings es of the people wnere a greater amount of comfort may be given and more permanent good be done. i What to'do with the unemployed Is a question of vital Importance, which must be met to the best of our finan- cial ability. It appeals to our human- ity, to our pity- for thel suffering of . ... . .. ... t . • helpless children* of the old and the sick- it will take the form of the giv- ing of alma by those who take the quick road tp the relief of suffer- ing. Those who have the broader vis- ion, who look for permanent results, will endeavor to do their relief work along constructive lines through or- ganizations which are in far eloser touch with needs and conditions than the individual can ever be. The months Just ahead will offer plenty of opportunity for both sorts of charita- ble worav A sterner duty should be discharged In the case of the unnecessarily em- a peace spirit in the rising generation while, at the same time, war and the spirit of war are fostered by placing toy pistols and swords In the hands of children. Equally futile is it to talk peace, to encourage disgust with war when at the same time we make use of the public Interest in strife to forward other more personal Interests. The Christmas ship, laden with gifts for war sufferers, does that encourage children to believe that war is hor- rible in its every aspect? Or does the cargo of good things suggest to the child too young and too undeveloped entirely to understand the need back of the enterprise, a sort of reward to come out of going to war? Is the young mind impressed with the fear- ful waste and havoc wrought by war by the pictures for which we are warned for days to watch? Or is it the adventure, the romance and the excitement of the soldier's life that to most prominently portrayed? '.m ~* & SELF-SUFFICIENT AMERICA. Not ah unimportant result of the war, at least to us, -promises to be the realisation of our own resources and the lessened value of the label signify- ing the foreign manufacture of an ar- ticle purchased. Made in America bids fair to be the distinguishing fea- ture of all sorts Of supplies, a virtue born of necessity, but still a virtue nevertheless. In the instance of the latest an- nounced addition to American indus- tries, the manufacture of artists' brushes from the exceedingly soft hair which is to be found in the ears of cows and thus to compensate for the deplorable loss or that important part of the painter's equipment, the way has been opened for the saving of what has heretofore been a complete loss to our packing companies. The individual American's ability to take care of himself is our most promi- nent national characteristic. By the way we have set about overcoming obstacles set in our path by the clos- ing of markets of Europe to us we are demonstrating our ability to live unto ourselves quite comfortably. * * m TRICKY SLOT MACHINES. Tricky slot machines do, In time. ployed. We are approaching an elec-1 outwear the patience of a long-suffer- tion in which candidates from the sev- eral parties are seeking position on the various bodies which control the expenditure of the public moneys, and in the case of the Sanitary District board, possess the power to levy taxes. Every citizen Of voting age and quali- fication may have something to say about the daily expenditure of $1,000 for unnecessary service. No great sense of the fitness of things is neces- sary to appreciate the advantage of saving, especially under the present conditions In financial matters. TAGGING STRANGERS. The Chicago Children's Benefit league have been arranging the details for the annual tag day to be held on October 14. The Ingenious person who first conceived the Idea of raising Many Instructors Doing Advanced Work, As ssssaalfy large sssbcr of Nsr Trier instructors are doing gradual work at Northwestern and Chicagt universities this year. Mr. Francis 1 Walker, bead of the department b English and director of the schoo orchestra, has registered for a course In orchestration at the School o* the university band, and player In it Mr, Phillips, head of the department of manual training, has registered foi a course in secondary education giver by Professor Jones. Dr. Small, In structor of Latin and English, whe received his Ph. D. from Princeton to 1313 and who would have taken a year's leave of absence to study in Germany this year but for the war, has registered for a course hi Greek historians under Dr. Fllckinger. MIse Laura Ullrich, head of the department of hipfory, has registered for two graduate courses In history with Dr. Harris and Dr. HeckeJ. Miss Pauline Brooke, of the department of English to taking three courses In Genua with Professors Curme and Hatfield She Is now a candidate for a mister'? degree from Northwestern. Miss Wester of the .department of English and Spanish, is taking a course Id short story writing, with Professor Lovett of the University of Chicago, and Mr. Hyatt, whose specialty to swimming and soccer, is taking two courses at North western In the depart ment of commerce. When one recalls that the school session is not over un- til three o'clock this year, one realizes that It Is something of an accomplish- ment for these seven instructors to do work at these universities in addi- tion to their regular work, Better Car Service for New Trier. After countless protests, complaints, and exhortations on the port of princi- pal, school hoard and students, the directors of the Milwaukee--Electric line have at last given better accom- modations to the New Trier students both morning and afternoon. Double headers-from north and south reach the Ivy Court station at about 8:10, thus enabling students to reach their Class rooms comfortably by 8:26, when all must report. In the afternoon dou- ble headers leave the station for north and south at 3:10. The cars are still somewhat crowded, but are-far more Comfortable than ever before at this time. The New Trier Sponsor System. All students of the school have now been assigned to their various spon- sors. The sponsor system at - New Trier is a provision for enabling each student to have some one Instructor to whom be may turn in time of need as to a friend, and to whom parents and other instructors may turn for advise In case of perplexity. Each in- structor has* about twenty students under his care. These are from the different academic classes and differ- ent towns, and the group is in every way a democratic unit. There are in- finite possibilities for good in the sys- tem, which merits, and does receive; the wise co-operation of parents and students. School Organizations. The Zenoblan literary society has |tsire> business advisors. Mbscrtpttons •or the paper have been taken In a*> wntty and the year promises to be a fcood one. Athletics. .'
