OBITUARY
EDWARD G. WEsTLAkE.

The body of Edward Westlake, au-
tomobile editor of the Evening Post,
who died suddenly at his home I'm
Rogers Park, was placed in cement
vault at Rosehill Cemetery. Brief
funeral services were held at the resi-
dence, 144G Chase avenue. Rogers
Park.
The following tribute, written by
Wilbur ID. Nesbit, president of the
Forty Club, was read:
Eddie Westlake will always be at
the Forty Club gatherings. He was the
type Of friend whose influence is al
ways felt. Genial, wholesouled. never
weary of well doing, with the magnet
ism of truth in his voice. he was that
rare type Of man who made each indi.
vidual realize that his splendid traits
were bestowed upon him to be spent
toward the benefit of those he chose
as companions.
IN our hearts there is a tense re-
gre. over his passing. There is grief,
too-not the grief of the surface, but
the gentler. deeper grief which is
softened by its being shared by the
thousands who knew him personally
or were bound to him through his
work.
THE world Is better for his life as
we are better for having known him.
"Over him we have laid our tribute
Of flowers, but they are merely the
fading tokens of fadeless friendship.
Our loving cup shall be lifted to him
and enduring memory will bring to us
his cheerful words and cheering
deeds; each time his name Is men,
toned It will be paid the well.earned
honor Of our praise.
"A good fellow In the true sense of
the words, good friend In the richest
meaning Of the term. Our simple cpl.
taph for him will be: Few better men
ever lived"
The deceased was one of the best
known and most highly respected
newspapermen in Chicago. He was
son of Richard II. Westlake, the
veteran printer who was employed on
the Chicago Daily News for over
thirty years. ,e

Gen. Luigi Cadorna. chief of staff
of the Italian army, which, under his
leadership, is making its triumphant
way toward Trieste, passed through
the first three years of the war almost
unnoticcd. But the campaign he was
quietly planning during that period
now Is reaching fruition. and In consc-
quence he stands out today as one of
the great figures of the war.
The following excerpts from q
personality sketch published in the
Boston Evening Transcript reveal tc
some extent the secret of his growing
fame and popularity. Says the writer,
Amy A. Bcrnardy:
"Not easily elated by success, fully
and calmly confident in his strength
and in that of his men, devoted to
Italy with the deep devotion that needs
no words to he expressed; built, mind

Who Cares Now


Because style decrees that women

in high heel footwear they suffer from
eorns, then they cut and trim at these
painful pests which merely makes the
corn grow hard. This suicidal habit
may cause Iockiaw and women are
warned to stop it.
A few drops of drug called freez-
one applied directly upon a sore corn
gives quick relief and soon the entire
corn, root and ALL lifts out without
pain. Ask the drug store man for a
quarter of an ounce of freezone, which
costs very little but is sufficient to re
move every hard or soft corn or csllus
from one s feet.
This drug is an ether compound and
dries in a moment and simply shrivels
up the corn without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue OF
