National superintendent Baker

Two weeks ago today the first
page of this paper was embel-
lished with a portrait of the presi-
dent Of the United Societies, the
leader of the liquor forces in Cook
County. This week the page con-
tains a portrait of DR.. P. A. Baker,
the national leader Of the Anti
Saloon League forces in America.
1t wouldn't be a bad idea to pre-
serve these two portraits side by
side. They might be framed.
Dr. Baker is a born leader of
men, strong in character and mag
netic in personality. Tom Gilmore
Of Louisville, Kentucky, head of
the Model License League, has
spoken of him as the Oliver Crom-
well of the Anti-Saloon League
movement.
Baker has been fighter from
the days Of his youth. When but
mere boy he began the battle Of
life alone as an orphan. If there
be such a thing as a self made
man he is good sample. His
early training was in the ministry,
but in directing his present work
he has taken a leaf from the book
Of the captains of industry who
have built up our great industrial
combinations. From the Leagues
National headquarters in Colum-
bus, Ohio, he dominates the great
Anti-Saloon movements in the sew
eral States, much like a mighty
organizer Of corporate interests,
bringing them into harmonious or
der in one vast enterprise.
There are few men in America
charged with greater response
bility than rests upon the shoul-
ders of this dauntless man.
