filled, and a number were unable tc
gain admittance. Music was provid-
ed at the meeting by the committee

GOOD MEN NEEDED
MEMBERS FROM THIS COUNTY
SHOULD GO AFTER BIG
APPROPRIATIONS.

To the men Lake county sends TO
the state legislature next Tuesday
will this district look for many need
ed state benefits in the county.
Chief among the improvements
now under way and in prospect are
those at the State Normal school.
The present members from Lake
county-Hans Urdahl, state senator,
and John Groce and l.. A. Baldwin,
state representatiyes-gave evidence
of their prestige at the seat of gov
eminent by bringing to a successful
end a campaign for the new model
training school. Additions and alter
ations at the State Normal school
which would cost thousands of dol
lars, are urgently needed. Men who
have gone into the matter aver that
there is no doubt the improvements
can best be brought about by men OF
experience and acquaintance in the
legislature.

PROHIBITION Speech
..NACHINIST ORATOR." COMPARES
DRY" AND WET" TOWNS
GOOD CROWD PRESENT.

"A dry town is a dead town, but
it is dead only for the bad that IS IN
the town" was one of a number or
pointed declarations last night of
John F. Cuneen, the "machinist or
ator." who spoke on prohibition at
the corner of Egan avenue and
Fourth street.
Mr.. Cuneen is a rapid fire speaker,
whose words almost dance over one
another in their race to trlckle
through the ears of his auditors. He
held a large street crowd interested.
You frequently hear the remark
that a dry own is a dead town.
he said. You will invariably find a
dry town dead for all hat is bad,
but a very live Town for all that is
good"
Mr.. Cuneen gave statistics in sup
port of his statements. He said that
Rockford and Jacksonville, both dry
cities, have the lowest tax rates and
best schools of any cities in the state
of Illinois.
In REPUTATION of the assertion that
lust as much liquor is sold in dry
territory as in districts where saloons
are licensed, the speaker said that a
great ST. Louis brewing company had
reported that its receipts had fallen
off $1,000, 000 a year after Oklahoma
went dry He said that the concern
in question had been the largest ship
per of beer into Oklahoma, and he
asked why, if just as much liquor was
sold there, had a million dollars
worth less beer been sent there by
one big brewery alone. He also ask
ed where that million dollars which
would have gone to purchase beer
went to.
Mr.. Cuneen said it is true there
are bad dry towns. but declared
there never was a town as good NOR
ally when it was wet as when 1t was
dry

IMPORTANT POSITION
VOTERS SHOULD CAREFULLY
CONSIDER THE CANDIDACY
OF EMILY GLATZ FOR ST.
PERINTENDENT OF
SCHOOLS.

Entering the field as an %independ-
ent candidate for county s~uperintend-
ent of schools, Miss Emily Glatz is
receiving flattering encouragement
from friends and acquaintance who
are familiar with her high qualifi-
cations and admirable record as an
educator and director. Miss Glatz's
thorough training in local schools
and the Wisconsin State Normal
school. and her long successful work
as an instructor and an executive
head especially fit her for the i'm
portant office TO which she aspires.
Although a resident OF the county
most of her life, Miss Glatz is not
urging that fact as a reason for her
election.
Among the things that have con-
tributed to her fine qualifications are
that she graduated from the South
Dakota State Normal school here,
and also graduated. after a full six
year course. from the Wisconsin State
Normal school at Milwaukee. She
has a teachers life certificate in Wis
consin and a teachers life diploma in
South Dakota. She has taught sue
cessfully for four and a half years In
city and rural schools in Lake county,
and recommendations as to her high
qualifications, obtained here, were
material factors in the obtaining by
her of a desirable situation in Mil
waukee public schools, where she was
an instructor for about thirteen
years. Added to that is seven years
experience in teaching English to
classes of adult foreigners; expert
ence as club leader of adults In social
center work. and most important OF
all, wide experience in the training
of teachers. Miss Glatz has had
especial training in reading for the
