 A theft was discovered at the We quonnoc school. Thursday when Miss Gertrude M. O'Connor, who for the past year has taught room 4 in the temporary building. dismissed the school shortly before noon. Miss O'Connor left her pocketbook, contain ing $40, on her desk and in dismissing her pupils did not go more than two or three feet from the desk, yet the money proved to be missing when she came to look for it.. Constable John Reeves was notified by Principal F. J.Werking and started at once on the case, inter viewing the parents of all the pupils who were in the room, but discovering no clue. The recovery of the money is strongly hoped for.

GETTING TOGETHER.
Garments Manufacturers Will Erect
Eight Buildings.

Chicago, Aug. Decentralization OF
the combined garment manufacturing
interests of Chicago by the erection of
a group of eight buildings to cost APP
proximately five million dollars and the
abolition of the sweat shop" by the
building of homes. club houses, Ii
braries and gymnasiums for $500
employees was the plan launched last
night by the Chicago Garments Manu-
facturerS association.
The plan was enthusiastically re-
ceived by members of the association
gathered at the Grand Pacific hotel.
AS a practical undertaking it was
pronounced feasible. A committee was
appointed to carry out the preliminary
plans and look for a location.
Included in the membership of the
association are more than one hundred
manufacturers of women's and chill
dren's garments, who do a combined
annual business in Chicago of forty
million dollars. Their plants at pres
ent are scattered in various parts of
the city and a federation of their re-
spective industries in a central loca-
ton, they declare, will mean an annual
saving of thousa nds of dollars in rent,
insurance, building repairs and other
incidental expenses.
