LAKES-GULF WATERWAY
MAY NOW BE REALIZED.

With the Lakes-to-the-G Gulf
Waterway" law declared valid
by the Illinois supreme court and
the likelihood of favorable re
port OH the waterway project by
war department engineers whose
consent Is necessary to alter a
navigable stream, indications are
that all obstacles in the way of
building the proposed waterway
IN Illinois are removed.
Clearing out the old Illinois
and Michigan canal to "A depth of
eight feet, as provided in the
measure fathered by former Gov
.ernor Dunno, would enable small
crafts to make their way up the
Illinois river TO Utica, thence by
way of the old canal TO Lake
Michigan thru the Chicago drain
age canal.
The supreme court also held
that the Legislature in appropriat-
ing S5,OO0,000 for immediate ex-
pendIture on the waterway, had
not exhausted its authority, and
could appropriate in the future
the rest of the $200OO,0C0.
This project would add greatly
10 the volume Of Mississippi liv-
er traffic. II would incidently be
a big benefit to Hickman in the
matter of freight rates, north and
east, opening, as it does, a wat
er route to the great manufacture
ing districts of the northeast.

The real lesson that we ought to

simply the fact Of life beyond death.
but rather the possibility and the
beauty OF living the risen life while

away. and the fragrance of the lilies
has gone from the church, we pass
on to live the same old lives, seeking
the things that are below more zeal
ousiy than the things that are above,
what has Easter profited us? In what
way does the fact of Christ's resurrec-
ton make Its power felt in the mold

OF our life plans7 II. having passed
