DURING PAST YEAR.

Three hundred members of Starved
Rock Council, Knights of Columbus
attended the annual memorial exer-

On account of the large number of
members of the organization, the at
tendance at the exercise was restrict

Justin Jaeger, eulogized the mem
ory Of Ex-Mayor Farrell, speaking in

EDUCATION A MEANS
or ENDING DIVORCE

Chicago, Dec. 11.--Proper educa-
tion OF children in the problems OF
married life as a remedy for the
large number of divorces was sug-
gested by Judge Ben b. Lindsey Of
Denver, father of the Juvenile court
in an address last night.
He pointed out that in Illinois 49,
600 couples were married last year
while 1900 divorces were granted.
'If the youth of today We're educa-
ted to the problems of married life
and encouraged to marry young and
have families marriage would be
more stable" he said.
Parents should learn that children
do not take advice, because they
would lose too much of life il they
did. If youth were to follow advice
blindly there would be no progress.
Confidence, judgment and loyalty
should be taught. Nagging and
'don'ts' are the downfall of many.
Tho mistake of modern social censor
ship is too much paternalism and try
ing to prepare the path for the youth
where youth should be prepared for
the path"

WINTER GATHERING
IN THE NORTHWEST
WASHINGTON WEATHER BUREAU
WARNS AGAINST IMPENDING
ONSLAUGHT OF SNOW AND BIG
DROP IN TEMPERATURE.

Washington, Dec. 11.-Old man win
ter, who is lurking in the far north
west today began mastering his forces
for what gives promise of being the
severest onslaught yet made upon the
United States. The government
weather bureau today reported that
great storm is gathering in the
neighborhood of Medicine Hat and
soon will sweep across the northern
regions of the country sometime to-
morrow.
In Montana, heavy snow is falling
and the mercury has dropped as low
as % below zero.
The drop in temperature which will
accompany the advent of Old Jack
Frost is due to come Tuesday night
or sometime Wednesday. The storm
will reach its total velocity in the
north Atlantic states and in an en-
circling movement is expected to hit
back thru the Mississippi Valley on
the wings of a strong northeast wind.
Shows, it is said will accompany
precipitous drop in temperature.

POUR CONCRETE TO
MAKE RECORD JOB
OF MAIN ST. BRIDGE.
PoWERs.THOMPsoN cONSTRUc.
TloN COMPANY SPEEDS UP MEN
TO GET MOST OF POURING CON-
PLETED IN LESS THAN TWENTY
FOUR HOURS.

Working plans of the Powers.
Thompson Construction Co., this
morning, were for completion of the
pouring of concrete ON the new side
cut bridge at Main street today. The
thousands and thousands of pieces of
steel re-inforcements, which have at
tracted the attention of hundreds of
people since they were put in place
last week, were engulfed by flood of
sealing concrete today, binding them
together in solid stone formation.
The bridge will not be open to traf-
tic before January 10, city officials an.
nounced today. They will follow in
the footsteps of the state, in allowing
the concrete to settle and harden
for thirty days before being used.
The work today. of pouring the
cement, formed both the girders and
the street pavement. For the past ten
days the workmen had been busily
engaged in the construction OF the
girder and street forms, and the weav-
ing together of the steel reinforce
ments.
When the street is completed, the
5ihc WdIhhr at tlttcl olut vi tHV uFluEt
must be built, and the structure will
be finished With an ornamental brick
railing at each side.
Both the city officials, and the resi-
dents of Ottawa, who have closely
supervised the work on the structure,
are greatly pleased with the work that
has been done on the bridge, and feel
that it has been designed and erected
in such a way that there will be
practically no wear OUT to it.
