BUILDING OFFICIAL
IS VISITOR IN CITY

Neil Mcmillan of New York city,
tional committee Of the Y. NJ. C. A, was
in the city yesterday and today, in
conference with Architect c. ID. Nc
Lane, regarding matters of interest
work.
Mr.. Mcmillan has recently been ap-
pointed head of the building bureau
of the international committee, in
which capacity he is in direct line of
connection with all Y. M. c. A. build
ing activities in the United States. He
is at present making a trip through
the central states, visiting association
buildings which are known to be
among the best, and studying all nat
ters pertaining to their design and
construction. He very naturally in
cluded in his itinerary the Rock Is
land Y. NJ C. A. building and made a
careful inspection of it, finding many
points to commend.
Much of his time while in the city
was spent with Architect McLane, who
has made special study of associa-
ton architecture, and has won ma
tional recognition in Y. M. C. A. circles
by his work in this line. DR.. McMil-
Ian returned to Chicago today.

COMMUNITY CLUB
PLANS new ROUTE
Organization of Good Roads Boosters
Would Connect Lincoln Highway
and Road Along Mississippi.
MOVE is LAUNCHED AT MEETING
Enthusiastic Session of Men From
Every Walk of Life Held at Port
Byron-To Admit Fulton.

Members of the Community club Of
East Moline, South Moline township,
Port Byron and adjoining territory,
at meeting in Port Byron last even
ing launched a movement to have con-
structed a road which would connect
the scenic route along the Mississippi
river and the Lincoln highway 1t is
believed that such a route would prove
one Of the most attractive highway
circuits in the United States, and
members of the Community club feel
that they are equal to the undertaking.
1t was decided at the meeting to
extend an invitation to Fulton to send
delegates to a meeting in East Moline
next week. 1t is proposed to change
the bylaws so that Fulton may be
admitted to the organization. Such
action will be the first step taken for
the new route proposed by the club.
Meeting in Port Byron last evening
was one of the most enthusiastic that
has yet been held, boosters for good
roads from every walk of life being
present. Seven new applications fol
membership were reported during the
business session.
That Rock Island county is a good
one for the travelling public to see
was proved by John H. Hauberg Of

Tense may be carried forward without
delay.
While Secretary Lane was being con-
sidered in official circles as likely
choice, it was understood that the
president has under consideration the
names of two or three other men. The
president has already made up his
mind to appoint a democrat and it was
said that he will not be from New Jer-
sey or from the south.
Former Governor Walsh of Massa-
chusetts, Secretary Houston, former
Governor Harmon of Ohio, and former
Mayor Baker of Cleveland were added
to the names being discussed. Former
Governor Adams of Colorado was be-
ing talked of as a possible successor
to Secretary Lane. 1t was understood,
however, that at least one of the men
being considered by the president has
not been mentioned publicly for the
position of secretary of war.

rison, former secretary of war, an
nounced here today that he intended
to retire absolutely" from politics and
public life. He said he would not dis
cuss his resignation from any politi-
cal angle.
Mr.. Garrison intimated, however,
that he might do something" in the
matter of giving support to the move
ment in favor of continental army,
the issue on which his resignation
hinged. This intimation came in re-
Spouse to question as to whether he
would give his moral support to those
who continue urging the policy of a
continental army"
II cannot answer that question"
said Mr.. Garrison, because it would
infringe on politics"
Mr. Garrison received interviewers
at the home of George Leary, with
whom he spent the night after his ar
rival here last evening from Wash
ington.
Il will not discuss my resignation
from the cabinet" he said. from any
political angle whatever, either as re-
CARDS the present situation or the sit
uation to be produced or assumed to
be produced. The facts will be dis
closed to anyone who will carefully
read the correspondence between my
self and the president

J. d. Clarkson of the Roadmaker
told the men he had come from Mis-

able to turn the tables and tell the
boosters where they are at right here.
Mr. Clarkson also spoke words of en-
couragement on the work inaugurated
by the Community club.

Improvement of roads as a money

| In conclusion, he spoke Of good roads
as a pleasure as well as commercial
asset. A. B. Johnson told Of the ad-
vantages of a community club-advan-
tages which can only be secured, he
asserted, through personal coopera-
ton, such as comes with an organiza-
ton of that type. Mr.. Huette of the
Roadmaker assured the road boosters
that the Roadmaker was right with
them" in the work and also spoke of
advantages of taking the Roadmaker.

Great Business Losses Due to
Neglect

President of the Polk-Miller Drug
Company, Richmond, Va, is authority
for the following extraordinary state
ment:
II estimate that the business men of
this country could increase their eff
cheney fully ten per cent By taking an
occasional laxative and not neglecting
the bowels as most of them do"
He also said that if the Department
of Commerce in Washington would
present each business man in the coun-
try with box of Rexal Orderlies. it
would be Of great benefit to the ma
tional welfare. Rexal Orderlies are
prompt in action. pleasant to take and
never grippe. can be used by men, wom-
en- or children. and are just the thing
for toning up sluggish livers.
We have the exclusive selling rights for
this great laxative. Trial size, 10 cents.
