those who attend are doing much 20
ilt themselves for leadership.
In the general sessions, great edu.
cational topics are discussed by men
and women of national reputation
and In the sessions Of the several de-
partments (such as elementary, Sec
ondary, college, manual training, kin.
dersarten, music. art, science. etc.
there is an interchange OF ideas and
experiences growing out OF actual
work. which will increase the efiicien-
cy of any teacher who will attend.
Chicago Is good place for a sum
mer trip. The climate Is generally
lcomfortahla. a1ld thorS are naanysa -

same can be said Of the Modern Wood
men. Other than policies and general
reliability, there is no comparison be-
tween the two. The Woodmen stand
for fraternity as well as life insur-

CAN CHANGE RATES SOON.
While the new rates of the Woodmen
do not become operative until Jan. 1,
1913, nevertheless members or appli.
cants at the present time can have
their rates made out under the new
scheme and by doing SO many can eff
feet a small saving. For instance, the
rate for $1,000 at the age Of % is 90
cents per month, while at the age OF
"a it is 90 cents. One who is % now
may have his rate remain at the for
mer figure permanently by having his

waiting he will automatically increase
It to 90 cents month by being q
years old when the change occurs.

pany of Davenport Settles Its
Local Account.

Assessment books OF Rock Island
township for the collection of taxes for
the year Of 1911 we're opened yesterday
by John T. Noftsker, tax collector. The
first citizen of Rock Island to pay his
assessment after the opening of the
books was Theodore Heitz, 1892 Thir.
ty-sixth street He was the first to
make payment on real estate. Other
payments are being made steadily.
Some time before the books of the col.
lector were opened a payment was
made on the tax on capital stock of the
Crescent Macaroni and Cracker com.
pany with Offices in Davenport
TO SURRENDER CHARTER.
The company holds an Illinois char
ter along with its Iowa charter, and as
it is incorporated under the state laws
must pay taxes on capital stock
though it owns no property here. The
firm recently decided to relinquish It's
Illinois charter, and in order TO make
ready for the move, Strengthened its
financial affairs so that there would be
no question of the legality of the &C
ton. Knowing the capital stock of the
company and the amount due TO the
township, Mr.. NOftsker allowed pay
ment before the books were open.
