COOK COUNTY ROADS A
CREDIT TO DUN l.

When the petition for daily a
mail service for Cook County was
drawn up for presentation to the
Post Office Department., it was set
forth that our roads would be in
shape to warrant the authorization
of such service
The mail has arrived practically on
schedule time every day since the
daily service was inaugurated. While
credit must be given the contract
ors for their efficient organization,
yet it would have been impossible
for them to have given us such SER
vice if our county road building had
not been as we'll managed as it is.
Great credit is due to our county
board, but their success in road
building in this county is, we be-
lieve, due to the cooperation which
has been given by the Highway Com
mission under the Dunn Law.
If we could induce bribe, or kid
nap the legislature and bring them to
Cook county and go over our roads
and their costs, also compare our
present road making with that of
the past done without the aid and
advise Of the Highway Commission,
we know that there would be no at
tempt to abolish the commission at
the coming session convening early
next year, and that their considera-
tion of the commission would be to
build it up with their endorsement
and more liberal appropriation
than it was given at the last regular
session.

A Federal FARM LOAN AS
ISOLATION FOR COOK COUNTY

The writer believes that there are
in Cook county a number of settlers
of reliable character who own lands
we'll suited for agricultural purposes,
but who are handicapped for the lack
of the means necessary to bring
their lands under cultivation and to
provide for the required live stock.
Regular banking institutions are not
in a position to assist such men with
the long time loans necessary and
also advisable for the purpose, but
the recently enacted Federal Farm
Loan Act offers and agency whereby
such men may obtain the means to
make their farms what they should
be, the source of comfortable living
for themselves and their families.
The writer would be glad to attend
gatherings of the farmers in the Sc
veral settlements of the county for
the purpose of discussing with them
the availability of the Act to the
conditions in this county.

BRITISH WORKMEN
ARE ANGERED AT
HUGE WAR PROFITS
Fabulous Prices Building
Great Fortunes for Few.
The Cost of Living Goes
Up as Result

London, September Ut is for
tunate thing for the British govern
ment that Parliament has risen for the
autumn recess just at the time that the
annual reports of the public companies
are being published, for if it We're in
session they would stand a very good
chance of being swamped under the ris-
ing tone of public indignation over the
scandalously inflated shipping profits
which are now disclosed by these re-
ports 1t should be stated, too, that the
profits disclosed are for the year 1915
when freights had not scared to the
heights at which they now stand. With
food prices rising steadily and sal
aries standing still, or even being re-
duced by the extra taxation, the public
is in no mood to contemplate calmly
the piling up of great fortunes by ship
owners, for no service at all, and sim
ply because of their ability to take adj
vantage of the national necessity
In many cases the mere increase of
profits in 1915 over 1914 is greater than
the whole capital of the companies re-
porting. Here are some figures eX-
tracted from the reports of public COM
panies showing the profits for the two
years and the increase. They are given
approximately in dollars, IS being
taken as equal to one pound sterling:

EVENING STAR
by PENDLETON WATSON

by PENDLETON WATSON
Yon stream is flowing calmly by,
And azure hazes dim the sky,
Night birds have silenced, twilight binds
The waiting earth in rustling winds
I.o! day has ended, dusk remains
To briefly rule DER earths domains.
To westward deep the sunset blush
Is burning now in evenings hush.
The spreading shadows, deepening, blend
And merging into one, they send
Nights darkness into realms afar,
Then, pausing-there shines evenings star
My soul! would daylight fade from thee
Would sunset linger but to flee,
Would birds their ringing voices still
And night gloom rise beneath the hill?
But pause! Sky azure turns to dun
Save in the west, where light of sun
Is lingering; evenings star will peep
To watch thy dreaming in thy sleep
