Mr.. Cherrie Speaks Here
Friday Night

George K Cherrie has been conduct
ing natural history explorations in
tropical America since 1884. 1t was
his wide experience, his success in
handling problems of transportation
and in establishing desirable relations
with the natives that led the authori-
ties of the National History Museum
to send him as the museums repre-
! sentative with Colonel Roosevelt on
the famous trip down the River of
Doubt in 1913. The people of Morris
vile and vicinity will have the rare
| opportunity of hearing Mr. Cherrie
tell about the experience of the Roose-
welt party on this trip of discovery
at the town hall next Friday evening,
January 27.
Mr.. Cherrie is at home now recover
ing from an accident which is de-
scribed in recent issue of The Out
look, as follows: physical heroism
for the public benefit is not confined
to the battlefields of great wars. Mr..
Cherrie was in command in 1921 of
National Museum expedition in south
western Ecuador near the Peruvian
line. In September of that year an
accidental discharge of a shotgun sent
charge Of shot through Mr.. Cher
rie's arm, severing the ulna. After
inefficient first aid treatment he
started for Santa Rosa, IS miles
away, where he could catch a steamer
to Guayaquil. The pain was SO in
tense that he was unable to ride on
the level or down hill and conse-
quently walked all the way except
uphill. He could get very little to
eat and was told by the natives that
he would not live, so why eat at all
He reached Santa Rosa three hours
after the boat had left, but his party
started after it with a canoe and
caught it farther down the river
When he reached Guayaquil four days
after the accident his arm was as
large as his leg and so gangrenous
that his life was despaired of. An
operation was performed and he i'm
proved enough SO he, could come back |
to the United States, and the ply !
sicians hold out hope that he will re-
gain the use of his arm.
"The pluck and determination shown
by man who could walk in such a |
condition to distant dressing station |
is eloquent testimony of the stock of |
which our American scientific explor-
ers is made. All honor to them"

There was time when Letter
GO, Gallagher" meaning start or "cut
loose" was heard in all parts Of the
United States. The exclamation was
originated by Judge Beaver, of Nor.
gan county, KY, during trottng
meeting in Tippon county.
The judge had entered mare which
was driven by one Gallagher. the city
marshal Of Harrodsburg. Some of the
sporting fraternity, thinking TO catch
the judge mapping, entered a famous
fast trotter against his horse. At the
end of the first half-mile the two
racers approached the wire neck and
neck at 40 pace. At this moment
the Judge shouted:
Letter ga Gallagher"
Gallagher hearing the words, lOosed
the reins and the mare rushed for
ward and won by almost dozen
lengths.

The most unique record made in
Cook County this year was that OF
John +. Devine, clerk OF the Probate
Court. His Office made a profit for
the last fiscal year OF over S41. 1000 90
over and above all expenses.
The operation of the usual public
Office in Cook County generally means
a heavy charge upon the taxpayers OF
Cook County. In these days OF in
creasing taxes, the voters can appre-
ciate a public official who makes over
Sal 100000 above all the expenses OF
his office. This profit goes TO make
up in part the deficit in other offices,
and thereby decreases the tax burden
and ultimately the rent burden OF
every voter in Cook County
This profit was made by Mr.. Devne
/ by doing the largest amount Of work
ever done in the Office with the small
est proportionate amount OF help He
effected economies without decreasing
efficiency. He increased efficiency
without increase Of cost His every
move was ono Of real business man
in charge OF a business Office.
On the other hand he did not for
get that his office Is one in which wild
ows and orphans are most vitally in
tcrestcd. He devised new safeguards
to protect them against dishonesty OF
looting of estates. His heart is as
big as his brain.
A vote for John +. Devine at tho
Republican primaries on April II
means an assurance and appreciation
Of efficiency and economy in public
office. He solicits your support on his
record
