INWOMAN’S BEHALF. MRS. HENRY WADE ROGERS. Tlio U<wil Work »u Intelligent Woman In lining for Chicago. The plan fpr organizing women and children, in the interest of cleanliness ami good order in Chicago against the opening of the World's fair had its in­ ception with Airs, H en ry Wade Rogers. Mrs. Rogers, wife of President Rogers, of .the North­ western university is chairman of the the municipal order committee of the woman’s branch, World’s Auxiliary Congress. Her successful' efficiency since her appointment ns chairman of this committee has clearly demonstrate ed her eminent fitness for the position, 1 1 would indeed be difficult to find a woman who by natural selection and education is so admirably equipped to successfully carry forward the difficult . and important work. * Mrs. Rogers is the daughter of Rev. John Ogden Winner and granddaughter of Rev, Isaac Winner, D. D., of the Methodist church. She is a,native of New Jersey and a graduate, of Penning­ ton seminary. In addition to iler work at this school she lias taken a special course at the University of Michigan, living particularly fond of social science and political. economy, she lias devoted herself to study in this line, and is the author of valuable articles on these sub­ jects, which have been published in leading paper,s and periodicals,' She is alike conversant with theories and tlicir practical working wherever they have been applied. Her friend Jane llancroft ' Robinson says in speaking of her: “While ('specially endowed with the logical "faculty and with the ability to - judge dispassionately, she is yet ever regardful of the amenities and demands of home and social life and is equally successful in dealing with the philo­ sophicand economic questions of the day and in society. Indeed. Airs. Rogers is a pronounced type of.-tlic younger col­ lege woman of the present day, who, having enjoyed the higher education, brings a thoroughly well-disciplined mind, as flexible as it is well stored, to any effort to which she may see fit to give her attention.’’ Although still a young woman, Airs. Rogers has already-rendered successful public service quite outside of her spe­ cialty. For six years she. was the, effi­ cient corresponding secretary of the. Woman’s Home Missionary society of the Detroit conference. She is now honorary president of a similar society in the Rock River conference. She is a valued member of the American Eco­ nomic association and is also a member of the Chicago Fortnightly club. .The organization planned by Mrs. Rogers ’iitoiw Tim fnr its first anctenost appar­ ent aim the cleaning of the streets and alloys of Chicago, .includes much more than this, and evidences her rare in- tight and her ability to grasp in its en- , tirety the important and knotty prob­ lemof municipal government. Because her plan involves much more than th e - undertaking of, so to put it, the “house clean” necessary to malcp the city pre­ sentable to Ufi invited guests, it was de­ cided by her committee to organize a “Municipal Order league” which should make the cleaning of the streets and al­ leys its espeeial care while the regular committee devotes itself to the direc­ tion of other work as well as this. Miss Ada Sweet was invited to bccorau the president of- the new organization, of which all of Airs. Rogers’ committee are members. This committee, by the way, will uot relax its efforts for a clean city because of the formation of the associn- tion-of which Aliss Sweet ir. president, but willlend it all the aid in its power. The plan of work which Airs. Rogers hasarranged for her committee Includes, inaddition’to that already mentioned, discussion and the disseminating of in­ formation in regard to the need of pub- Kebatlisand laundries; the, formation of home science clubs to promote a knowl­ edge of sanitation and hygiene; calling attention to the improved methods of housingwage-workers and the organiz­ ing of children for the promotion of civic, patriotism among them. The or- • Sanitation of boys is known as the. Co- l’lmbian guards. These boys, in addi­ tion to excellent military drill, will be fully instructed in matters relating to the government and welfare of the. city and the dutieswhich belong to good cit­ izenship, ft is proposed to also utilize this organization in cleaning the streets and alloys. The girl's are by no means to be neglected, but are to bo similarly organized. Mrs, Rogers is quite as much interest­ ed in tyr (tusbund’s work as in any that 6hfeherself undertakes and "renders him valuable assistance, particularly in a social way. Indeed, in no way is Mrs, Rogers more admirable and successful than as a wife. Withal she is a 'gTace- ful, gracious woman, as pleasing to look Mponas to listen to, and as an Illustra­ tion of what equal opportunity will do for womanhood, she certainly dispels tac fears which some«have insisted Simula be entertained for humanity when women should l>c permitted an hkkpendent individuality. —Chicago A SUCCESSFUL WRITER.
