EXAMS IN MOLINE
FOR CHAUFFEUR.

Senator F. A. Landee has re
ceived notification from D. L. Nc
Kinney of Springfield, state chauf-
feur examiner, to the effect that an
examiner will be in Moline all day
next Tuesday for the purpose of con-
Quoting statsx,xamination of chauf-
feurs in this Vicinity. Senator Lam
dee was asked in the communication
to designate the place and he has
arranged for the council chamber
In Moline.
As under the law, 1t Is obligatory
that all automobile chauffeurs be ex-
amined, and that the state examin-
er may designate certain places
where the examinations are held and
THAT Moline. has been named for
this vicinity. all local chauffeurs will
be obliged to avail themselves OF the
opportunity to be presented in that
city or later take the examination at
the state capital.
Senator Landee is therefore anx-
ious that all chauffeurs in Rock Is
land take notice of the examination
to be held in Moline all day next
Tuesday and govern themselves &C
cordingly.

The church, school, state, farm and
home are FIVE agencies through which
our development must come The ideal
church is one that will minister most
ity; the ideal school will teach the
young people practical, useful branches
for everyday life. DR.. Frank Gunsau-
ius was quoted as saving: 1.-THE school
which graduates your daughter and
sends her home discontinued with that
home and its duties has uneducated
rather than educated her"
FARM IDEAL PLACE.
The farm is an ideal place to live If
we but availed ourselves of the oppor
tunities to make it so. Many people
grow discontinued on the farm be-
cause of their lack of knowledge OF
scientific farming; 81, in the home,
home-mskers often fail because they
do not make study of their business.
Equality in the finances of the homo,
cooperation and consideration were
mentioned as elements absolutely nec
essary in the foundation of an ideally
happy home.
PART OF THE STATE.
The part the state has in this pro
gressive movement is the making OF
statutes which would improve the pres
ent conditions.
Mrs. Dunlap landed the work Of wo
mems clubs, and at the close of her ad
dress organized a household science
club, with the following officers: Pres
ident, Mrs. G. Olson: vice president
Mrs. F. Bahringer; secretary, Miss
Edna Mallette; treasurer. Mrs Sadie
Mayall. The audience showed a great
appreciation of Mrs. Dunlap's splendic
talk, and the farmers Institutes shs
visits are indeed fortunate.

II Is not generally known. but Mrs.
Mary J. Holmes wrote her book Lena
Rivers" which has made such a popu-
lar and successful play, around scenes
which she had actually visited. and
modelled her characters after people
she knew in those localities. Mrs.
Holmes taught school in the south for
several years, and while there studied
the people and their mannerlsms,
with the result that she impaired the
southern air to her book. The play
comes to the Illinois Christmas day.

also shortly to be made in Paris, Ber-

Fake Lottery Schemes
 Run in New 0TIGa1S

Though long since out of existence, the Louisiana lottery left in its trail series of ''slIln games" called lotteries, and the list ot prisoners on the New Orleans police register is evidence that there is no lack of persons who are willing to take a chance on getting something for nothing, says an Outside newspaper.
 The "Iotteres" of New Orleans con- tinue to spring up like mushrooms after each successive raid by the police The tickets bring anywhere from 5 cents to p cents. Seldom the capital prizes amount to more than S25, and the instances are rare, according to detectives, when a ticket holder is awarded prize.
 The sharpers who prey upon the ig- norant whites and negroes have their special agents to sell tickets. They infest novels and barrooms, reaping their harvests principally in the ten derloin. The police are constantly on the lookout for lottery ticket agents, but the gamblers means of ''spotting" a 'pIain-clothes" man and getting in- formation that a raid is imminent is evidence of the craftines swith which their operations are carried on.
 As soon as number of tickets are sold-say S20 or $3O worth-the chap who is backing the game takes sneak. There's no comeback, either. The victims who lose their money keep
