Chairman Denman put the whole re-

one of the most populous and busy
sections of the city, boasting asrits-
GROWING glory that proudest of our

substantial school buildings where
the young idea is taught how to do a
lot of things besides shoot.
And it is safe to say that of the
thousands of children who enjoy It's
educational benefits and the hundreds
of parents who regard it as their
chief reward for being citizens of
Peoria and almost due recompense
for the somewhat irksome honor Of
Iaying annual taxes into the city rev.
enue, few If any are aware from
whom the school got its name.
| have an idea indeed, that If they
were asked about it nine-tenths OF
the population would state that in
their opinion the Lee school was
named for General Robert E. Lee, the
dashing confederate general
Even a large majority of those who
know that the school was named In
honor of the Hon. John Lee, Of Peo-
ria, have only the haziest idea as to
who he was or what manner of man
he CHANGED to be or why and how he
won and been awarded the privilege
Of having his name perpetuated in
such a way.
Yet Jack Lee, as he was known to
sll of his contemporaries, was long 9
central and dominant figure in ouI
professional, political and business
life. And for the greater part Of the
last century the family now almost
unknown here, was prominent, widely
known and generally and generously
respected

Then help the weakened kidneys.
Don't expect them to get Well alone.
Doan's Kidney Pills have won the
praise Of thousands Of women. They
are endorsed-Resd this Maysville wo-
mans convicing statement:
Miss Dora Edgington, Wood st.,
Maysyilles, says: II have used Doan's
Kidney Pills and from the results re-

mend them. At times, my Kidneys have
become weak and have been irregular

family lived for half century or
more, was the only home he ever
knew. That II he had been free to
pursue only his own ambitions and
live a self centered existence Jack
Lee might have become a national
character there can be little doubt.
Certainly he could have had any Of
flee In the gift Of his fellow citizens.
And that in the face of the fact that
he adhered to the political faith of his
fathers and was staunch and loyal
democrat az a time when 1t took co,r-
age and meant the remuneration of
most public honors TO be known as
q member of the democratic party.
He could have gone to congress any
tune he had spoken the word. But
Jack Lee did not care to go to Wash
ington. His widowed mother needed
him-the younger members of the
family had claims upon him which he
was too loyal to ignore.
He was content to 90 to the legis-
lature where he attained popularity
as extraordinary as that he enjoyed
at home.
With his high-bred good looks, his
particularly dignified bearing, he must
have been figure which challenged
instant attention among that horde of
lsimple farmer folk which then as now
made up the bulk Of our legislative
body.
And thru all the stirring times that
followed the war he remained a
splendid example of the fast vanish
ing type of old-time gentleman poll
ticaian, sincere, modest, unassuming;
and as incorruptible as the Galahead
with whom l always associated him.
He died as he had lived and it is a
pleasant task indeed to be able to
chronicle that for once community
was able to appreciate character
wholly without pretense or pose, a
life lived simply and honestly with
out hypocrisy or self-seeking and a
career crowned by brilliant success
and yet marred by not one single deed
that was unworthy or mean.
That in spite of all we see around
us 1t is still possible to succeed in
life while doing unto others as you
would be done by is the lesson to be
learned from the career of Jack Lee
And it is with the hope that moi
only the pupils of the school which
bears his name but all the young peo-
pie of our city may know what fine
and splendid heritage the Lee schoo
has been given in that name, that
have written this little human stor,
