DIAL CONTAINS REVIEW
OF BOOK ON CHICAGO
SCHOOLS BY MISS ABBOTT
The April Dial contains a criticism
of the new book. "Truancy and Non
attendance in the Chicago Schools,"
by Edith Abbott, A. B. '01, and Sophon
isba P. Breckinridge. The book is the
story of the history of public education
in Chicago, from the establishment of
free schools to the present day. The
Dial is a journal of literary criticism.
discussion and information.
; The girls of the department of
home economics are now planning
the furnishing of the house which
they designed last year in Prof.
Alva A. Baer's class in architect ire.
The expense is limited to five hun
dred dollars. Each girl keeps a
large notr-book with two pages de
voted to the equipment of each
room.
A special feature of this work is
training in measurement. The pic
ture of the room and the furniture
must be accompanied by the floor
plan and a great deal of attention
is given to proper proportion. In
one case is was found that the table
which had been selected for the
library quite filled the room and
the chair had to be put in the fire
place. The girls are visiting dif
ferent stores to learn the various
wood finishing. The problem of linen
is rather a complicated one now and
promises to be worse next year.

SHOULD NOT BE
WAGE EARNERS ONLY
Prof. Minnie T. England Says There
are Many Profitable Side
lines for Women
"There is no reason why women
cannot be successful In business as
well as men," said Prof. Minnte T.
England, assistant professor of eco
nomics and commerce, and took from
a drawer 0f her desk a slip of paper
which proved what she said. It
showed that she cleared $68.04 from
the supervisory farming of six lots
last year In University Place.
"The first year I tried supervisory
farming," Mrs. England continued,
"I rented two lots and planted pota
toes and a few pumpkins. I kept
a careful account of the cost of rais
ing them and I found that I came
out just even."
Makes Nice Profit
But last year Professor England
was more successful. She paid $26.35
for labor, $15 for seeds. $7 for rent;
a total of $47.35. She received $5.75
for the cantaloupes that were raised,
$2.80 for the pumpkins, and $106.89
for potatoes, a total cf JllS.SS.
"Women should not be content
with wage earners only," Professor
England said. "There are numerous
ways of securing larger Incomes if
one will only put forth the effort
This year I have rented twelve lots."

Besides teaching economics and
raising potatoes Mrs. England builds
houses and ella them.

THE languorous charm of the
Hawaiian native instruments so
moving irt appeal, so observably
in vogue is strikingly- characteristic
of the Ukulele. Its tone possesses that
curiously beautiful timbre, that exotic
charm of tonal quality which has
made these instruments so sensation
ally popular.
The Ukulele has a pleasing grace of
form. The finer models are made
of genuine Hawaiian Koa wood. It
is much in request today among the
smarter college and other masical
organizations. "
It is eay to learn. Iu price include! an

Hawaiian Steel Guitar
Every chord struck upon this typically rep
resentative Hawaiian instrument is marked
by a weird, plaintive harmony and strangely
beautiful qualities of tone. It brings, to any
music, qualities full cf vivid color and va
ried charm.
