Christgau Called
Champion, Listener

The amateur 'dry speech listening
championship" of Illinois is claimed
by O. G. Christgau, of the Christgau-
Hollinger Dialog-Debate team. Nd
other man in the state, he says, haas
listened to more different dry speale-
ers during the past eight years, With
out getting paid for it, Besides all
the orators at the last four national
Anti-Saloon League conventions, he
has heard Bryan talk against liquor
seven times, has heard Billy Sunday
give his booze sermon, and has list
ened to scores of others of less re-
nown.
The fact that he had heard prac-
tically all the great Prohibition speak
ers in the nation was great help to
Mr.. Christgau during the work Of
preparing the Illinois Dry Dialog De-
bate. It taught him what NOT to
say. This is no reflection on the
speakers, but recognition of the fact
that nothing is so tedious as a twice
told tale. And so it happens that the
speakers in the Illinois Dry Dialog-
Debate achieve the apparently impos-
siblc by saying something new and
original about the saloon question. =

ONE YEAR DRY

In notable article under the

Col {. B. Blethen, editor of the
Seattle Times, thus summarizes the
results OF Prohibition in Washing

"Of the 2l1 places vacated when
the saloons we're put out of business,
19l have been occupied by new bust
inesses.

in the city of Seattle They went
down from 1898 to 1911 mills.
I'VE insisted that bank clcarings
would go down. The total bank
clcarings of 1o15 were S6l2,928,87o.
Those of 1910 were S7o0.217,o50, an
increase of more than SLY ,00O0o0
Eve said that bank deposits would
go down. Look:
At the end OF 1o15.....$ 87,815,076
At the end of 1916. 106,000,000
Savings bank deposits arc not
available, but the banks assure me
that there has been a tremendous in
crease in deposits and numbers OF
new accounts.

proof and is one of the best hotels in Illinois.
Decatur has several other fine hotels. Its excellent
facilities in this respect make popular convention city,
Last year nine conventions brought $4,000 visitors who
spent in the city $26O,OOO.
The Envy of Other Cities
Last year, the vets tried to BRING the saloons back to
Decatur but overwhelming ely defeated. Under the

Decatur voted out sxty-one saloons. In less
than two years out of all the locations in the busi
ness district only five were vacant and these were
either held by breweries who refused to lease,
were not fit for occupancy.
City Easier to Finance Without Saloons
The prediction of the vets that Decatur could
not finance her affairs without the saloon revenue
has been rendered ridiculous by the facts Decatur
has made more public improvements during the dry
period than ever before. This is shown clearly by
the amount OF money spent on new pavements dur
ing the last two all wet years compared with the
first two all dry years.
New pavements 1913 1914, Wet $15O,027OO
New pavements 1915, 1916, Dry 424,08900

of Mary Anderson in 1875, and the
flirtn of Fanny Kenble in 1909. For

first real stage appearance, although
even before that he had been cast for
a minor female part in a performance
at the South Street Theatre in Phila-
delphia- France Anne, better known
as Fanny Kemble, was a niece of the
celebrated Mrs. Siddons, and was
born in London. She made her first
appearance in 1929, playing Juliet to
the Romeo of her father, Charles

Louisville, and made her first public
appearance as Juliet at trial mat
