The Office Of County Commits
sioner is indeed an important che
ana should be filled by man of
good bus ness qualifca ions, as
there is no che closer to the tax
payer interests than the County
Court. The man selected by the
Democrats, c. P. G Taught, of
Sycamore, is a farmer and is well
equipped to serve the people Of
Calhoun county in the capacity
of County Commissioner. He
possesses sound judgment, and
is open and honest and the tax
payers will always find in him an
attentive and watchful servant.

nora, has been one the county's
prominent teachers for several
years past and his record as a
school man is unblemished. A
greater development along ed
vocational lines is promised Cal

Eonesf, clean and God fearing
man at the head of the school
system. That is just what Char

Our Japanese Sisters.

All girls in Japan are taught ethics.
They are told to be flial to their par
entS. true to their friends, kind to
brothers and sisters and To live peace
fully with their husbands. These prin-
ciples are taught to boys ana girls alike
since 1890. when the emperor com
manded it. Before that girls were
taught according to the laws of the
Japanese sage, Kaibara, that their
great duty in life was obedience, first
to their parents and then to their hus-
bands. They were especially instruct
ed that they must regard their hus-
bands rs gods. 1t is pretty hard to
make a twentieth century woman sub
scribe to that doctrine even in Japan.

there, though it is still i'm full force in

 FOR THE CHILDREN
Floral Wreath to Be Sent by Them
 to Funeral of Lucjan Adams.

The sudden death of Lucian Adams ct his home on Kinney avenue Tues day evening carries with it a deep sense of bereavement to the children of that nelghberhood, for he had en- deared himself to the little ones by his sympathetic interest in their joys and sorrows Never was he without his pleasant smile and cheery word fer his young friends, frequently par tipipating in their froiics and always a leading spirit in tkeir Fourth of July night celebrations In short his life appears to have been directed by the divine precept. ''Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, ye have done it unto me"
 Fitting recognition of this beautiful phase of the deceased's character was taken by the children when arrange ments were perfected to provide a floral testimonial. This will take the form of large wreath studded with roses and callas. The contributors to this mute token of love and esteem are; The Guile children. the Bill chill dren, the Rathbene children, the Mac pherson children, the Rodier children. the Houghton children, the Moody children, the Weisgraber children, the Lamberton children. Faith Curtis Con stance Everett. Ralph Parker, Natalie Lyons and Willard Pyne. The wreath will be appropriately labelled, From little friends
