eDts We're members, and she herself a
member for many years, one of the

until they took up their residence in

Mrs. Robinson was woman of most
genial and generous nature, beloved
alike by young and old, the rich and
poor. She knew how to open the home
and entertain most royalty: she knew
how to give sympathy and substance
without ostentation or embarrassment
and she was always ready according
to her strength to help in every good
work. 1t is but just that one whose
life had been so closely associated
with the history of Rock Island for
almost three-quarters of a century

now Rock Island will not be han
dicapped by the uncertainty Of the
law which governs it, and We can
carry through those undertakings
which have been held up by this uncer-
tainty."
1t is a well known fact that many
of the most important projects for
the improvement of Rock Island and
for it's betterment have been held in
allegiance pending the decision of the
courts in regard to the validity OF
the commission law. In fact, every
city in the state that is under the
commission form has deferred action
on matters of great Importance fol
fear that their adoption would only
work havoc in event that the deci
sion should be negative. Rock Is
land has not been subjected to suct
severe handicaps as most other cite:
but just the same the difference has
been felt.

for the proposed manual arts building
to be erected here in the spring, COM
mittee consisting of Superintendent II.
3. Hayden. Principal 4. ]. Burton and
board members II. H. Cleaveland and
Allan WEIGH spent yesterday in Chi
cago visiting the various schools of
that city. The Chicago board received
the local committee, and was very
courteous in showing them around. In
spections were made of some of the
best of the elementary schools, of the
high schools and manual training
schools. Ideas were gained at each
place, which will prove of value when
the time comes for planning the local
institution.
APPRENTICE COURSE.
Secondary in Importance TO the de-
tails of the various schools visited was
the course offered by the Chicago
schools to trades apprentices who at
tend school in Chicago on the same
plan which Is to be tried here. There
they go to school three months in the
year. and are taught in addition to
manual training and mechanical draw
iLg, arithmetic, English and writing.
z he majority of the Chicago appren-
tees have never had any schooling.
and their course Is not as exacting a
one as will be taught here.
