DISGRACEFUL ACT
OF A WET" MOB.
CBy Associated Prsss.)

Lebanon, Ill, April 1S.-The faculty
OF McKendree college decided to APP
peal to Governor Lowden for protec-
ton against mob violence, such as
threatened the college Tuesday night
after it became known that the "Wets"
had carried the local option election.
A mob of 800 marched to the coll
lege, where they were met by students
who were drawn up awaiting them.
The home OF ]. G. Dolly, dean Of the
college was attacked and when he adj
dressed the mob he was pelted with
mud. Fifty students. led by Prof. Reese
Brentzel, drove back the rioters. The
mob threatened to return later and at
tack the college buildings. Governor
Lowden will be asked to instruct the
sheriff of st. Clair county to protect
the college. Professor Dolly is presi-
dent of the law and order league and
led the fight for the drys in the recent
campaign. The college influence has
been thrown on the dry side also. The
mob formed at saloon where the wet
victory was celebrated.

It is a little hard on those brave
pioneer women who made it possible
for the girl of today to get Job, who
forced open the colleges that women
might educate themselves for business
and the professions, to be thanked in
terms like these.
Surely they never expected that

The trouble with the business girl
who thinks she would be better of at

does not know that work has always
been the portion of women. Long be-
fore there was factory or a typewrit-

worked for wages. They had to. The

The woman who finds the business

entertainment at the regular
meeting Jan. 18th, when the com
mittcc Tor that afternoon gave
their program.
Previous to the program Mrs.
Pryor, president, opened the
meeting with a word of prayer.
Several business items came be
fore the club, perhaps the most in
teresting being the decision of in
viting the Ocilla Woman's club
to meet with this club on Febru-
airy p at which time it is hoped
that Mrs. Amsden will be present

mas Seals" stating that $75.74
worth of seals were sold by the
school children and 5000 through
the mailing list sent FROM the At
lanta office, which made a total
OF SS1.74. One half of that amount
goes to local work for tuberculo-
sis. The room in school selling
the most seals was the 9th grade
OF the Third Ward, Miss nellie
Averitte's class, which sold 1917
seals. Room selling second larg-
est number was the 4th B. 3rd
Ward, Miss Inez Dorminy teach
er. The child selling the most
was Ralph Russell who sold 1901
seals. Special thanks are due to
the school teachers for their
hearty cooperation during the
busy season, to Mrs. Thurmond
for checking up the entire list and
to the First National Bank and
the Exchange National Bank for
rewards offered by them which
did much to stimulate the sale Of
the seals.
Miss Nellie Frazer took charge
OF the program and opened the
entertainment by giving hui
norous reading, "Mlrandy on
Eugenics," by Dorothy Dix. A
Solo by Miss Rhea Wise follow
ed Mighty LAX a Rose" accom-
panied by Miss Helen Matthews

center table was beautiful with a
cluny lace cloth with a center
piece of large bowl of narcissi.
The rooms were darkened and IL
lumnied by the yellow glow from
the white candles which blended
nicely with the color scheme.
Ferns placed about the rooms ad-
ded grace to the decorations.
Hand-painted score cards in yell
low and white were used.
Wednesday afternoon Mrs.
Adams entertained with three ia
bles of $500, Mrs. l.. w. Keim
and Miss Hattie Clarke assisting
her. Mrs. ]. L, Pittman received
the price for top score and the
guest of honor was presented
