PROHIBITION Speech
.MACHINIST 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 OF
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 raee 10 triekle
through the ears of his auditors. He
held a large street crowd interested.
You frequently hear The remark
that a dry town 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
Just 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. 900 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, IL 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 ii is true there
are bad dry towns, but declared
there never was a town as good NOR
ally when it was wet as when IL was
| dry

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

Care of Table Linen

Do not let linen become too soiled.
because hard rubbing is likely to break
the dbers. Remove all stains before
linen is to be washed. The stains
come out much better If removed as
soon as they occur Do not use a
wringer, but wiring linen by hand
Rinse the soap out thoroughly before
linen Is placed In bluing water, for
sometimes rust spots are caused by a
chemical reaction between the bluing
and the soap. and these are hard to re-,
move. Do not starch good linen, as |,
does not need II. and the linen will last
longer without 1t. Hang in the sun TO
whiten. Use a hot iron, but do not
scorch- Iron with the grain of the
material II linen Is to be stored for
some time, wrap 1t In blue tissue paper
or In blued cloth.
