The Moline Pressed Steel company
has won an important victory in the
federal court at Peoria, ending litiga-
ton started by the Davenport Manu-
featuring company that has extended
over IS months The Davenport COM
pany sued the East Moline company,
charging infringement on a patent for

Ruling of the court was that the
patent of the Davenport concern is
void. The ruling means much to the
East Moline manufacturers for the
company has large government order
for these balers, and an adverse deci-
sion would have seriously crippled the
company. The favorable ruling means
expansion and growth.

Arrangements for a concert to be
given Thursday evening, Feb. "a, pro-
ceeds of which will be used for the
maintenance Of a free bed at the new
Lutheran hospital in Moline, were
COMPLETED at meeting last evening
of the Swedish national chorus. In
musical way the concert promises TO
prove an important event, GUSTAV
Holmquist of Chicago having been en-
Gagged as a soloist. Mr.. Holmqulst
needs no introduction in Moline, his
reputation as a singer being well es-
tahlisbed in the west. The concert
will be given in the First Lutheran
church in Moline.
In the appearance of the Orlole
chorus of Augustana college, a sing
ing organization composed Of ~ girl
voices, the committee on arrangements
believes it has secured pleasing fea-
ture for the program. The young wom-
en- have yet to sing in public ana thelr
appearance at the concert in the Luth-
eran church will be an initial one.
They are directed by Professor Sober
berg.
The Swedish National chorus is an
organization composed of the differ
ent choruses of Moline and Rock Is

Everything necessary for the con-

At reception at the hospital last
evening there were doctors, ministers.
bankers and professional people and a
goodly number of ladies. Those who
had not already inspected the hos
pital did so and all were more than
pleased with the building, its equip
ment and furnishings. The structure
was a blaze of light, making a beauti-
full spectacle from all sides.
| There was music by Augustana col
lege orchestra, and vocal solos by
Miss Nystrom, constituting a most de-
lightful program. Toward the close
there was an impromptu little pro-
gram of speaking, presided over by
Rev. Ira o. Nothste1n, who introduced
DR.. A. G. Andreen as the first speaker
Recognizing the fact that very much
was due to the Rev. A. F. Bergstrom
the man who had the vision of this
hospital, who impaired this vision tc
others, and then worked necessarily te
bring the vision into reality, DR.. An.
