APRIL 23, 1915. Did you ever notice tint on orches- tra spends about as modi time tuning Bp as It does in playing? The bondi carried. Now wiimettc can have better Sre protection. It â- lay take aome time to get the appa- ratus In working order, but at any rate It's one step nearer; yes, sev- eral, to have the money to bay with. JK # * Mr. Cottffer ought to,'be proud of the fact that he has been president of the village for nine years. It's not every man that can be sufficiently efficient to please the public so long. T. Roosevelt thinks he could be a successful president that long, but from trying. :H â- :;• •;; Mr. Schmidt, the newly elected head of the board, has lived in Wil- mette just as long, as Mr.' Cooffer has,, but he has been connected with the village In an official capacity for just one year. Possibly he is setting out to stay at It as long as the retiring lead. If so, the story about his leav- ing will probably be printed in a Wll- jcttc daily. m * * Impractical nature of the plans the peace delegation now marooned England, lacking boats wherein to cross the channel to their hoped-for destination, is fairly exemplified in the very fact that there was no prepa- ration made for .that troublesome hitch. Such a disconcerting develop- ment nr.irif, we fancy, touch even the British dull souse of humor. & ft * We know a man once who Joined everything. He belonged to so many clubs, organizations, associations and order:; that be finally bad to card in de» his membership list and set a limit. There are few in Wilmette in that class, or at least we think so. \Possibly some approach the limit, but there Is nobody who^ cannot afford, to join the Wilmette Improvement Assn. The fee Is a dollar. You don't get a badge to wear for that or march In a parade with regalia, but you do have the chance to help in making the vil- lage a better place in which to live. Wi * & Had it ever occurred to you that "Billy" Sunday couldbe other than an American luxury? His whole career so typical of our national ex- travagance and exaggeration that be acems, somehow, to belong How reserved, sell contained, slow- thinking and slower-acting British audience would react under Sunday's ministrations, we cannot even Imag- ine. To find out would be worth part- ing With the evangelist for aome months If the suspected need for him In England should materialize In a real "call" to service there In a con- certed effort with the government to remove the blight of inefficiency In her workmen, resulting from their too great appreciation of the "flow- ing bowl.'* _____ ^APffliTfr oyitT,**____- The attraction of the "adult* only sign la the lobby of the moving pic- ture theater ia fairly demonstrated to the abase ef the placard la certain at Chicago* loop picture play houses.

It has been suggested, and happily. that the celebration of the nation's birthday be of a peace-promoting na- ture. Instead of the vociferous "eagle- screaming" sort of patriotism and ear- splitting explosion of substitutes for cannon we should haveâ€" what ? Real ingenuity will be required to formulate a .peace program for the Fourth of July audi as will catch the fancy of the small boy, recompense the dealer In firecrackers and fireworks, create sufficient enthusiasm among adulta to put It through, at one and the same time commemorate the pa- triots of the war which fare us a na- tional being and promote-the cause of universal peace. ~T" In the. yerngcular of young America, whose day the Fourth has come to be, it la "some Job" which the originators of the plan have suggested.

IK i.'i â-  I'i CHEERFUL NEWB. Perhaps you don't read Kitty Kplly's adventures into filmland, but you should, if only to be assured that things might be much worse. For in- stance, from a reported Interview with Mack Sennet, of Keystone com- edy fame, it develops that scenarios to the number of fifty a day are re- ceived, read and discarded because, in Mr. Sennet's own words, they are "too sublimely asinine" to be consid- ered for production. Anyone whose fate has led him to view in any number the films confi- dently labeled comedy or "Komlc" or something else which suggests fun, must be encouraged by the knowledge that there are stupider plays than those which in stage parlance "get by." There are some which lack the logical sequence of scenes, spme which refuse to "stand up" under analysis of their plots.

At the back of the stage ware the daisies and morn- ing glories, pfcasies and buttercups and all the hoBt of other flowers, that came forward, group by group, to greet King Sol.

It Justifies everything that is being done to reclaim these boys to a useful place In society. But more Important even than these Is the testimony It given or those agen- cies which are the boys' undoing In the beginning, the opportunities for evil companionship, for early Instruc- tion In things that lead to the Boy*' court and beyond. Chicago does well to appreciate the valuable service of the Boys* court, but ehe would do still more wisely to est about with determination to stamp out the feeder* to It and all other alleviating Institutions in the treat- ment of Juvenile crime and Juvenile criminals. The work of redemption Is so much more difficult, the results so much arare doubtful than a cor reepondlnglv effective â€"deavnr to prevent the need for that sort of care! It Is the old practice of seeking a remedy Instead of preventing the dis- ease. Certainly In rime we snail grow out of ear foolish social prac- tice aa eomptetsly aa we are going beyond Its practice.
