ratus. building water works and doing
other things to make it a good commu
nifty to live in.
Want Slogan That Will Impress.
Every one in Thrifton Village
knows all about it. and they don't
need anything to remind them. but
they do want a slogan. to impress the
active little town and its progressive
movements on those who pass through
it. They want a snappy slogan that
will stick and bob up in the mind Of
any one who has been there and later
thinks of progressive movements.
When they get this slogan they are
going to put it all over the village in
larger gold letters on fitting sign
posts. the town councils stationery
will carry it as well as the Thrifton
Improvement Leagues stationery and
publicity. The league is an associa-
ton of the citizens formed to keep
progress on the jump TO prevent it's
getting behind these people.
Competitive Test Proposed.
T. c. Roberts. chairman. and c. Z.
Lowe. member of the publicity COM
mittee of the league. today announced
competitive contest to obtain this
slogan. The conditions are not ex-
acting, and the prize winner will get
$3. 1t is open to any one anywhere.
But the slogans must be original and
must be in the hands OF the committee
before midnight of April l next, and
the principal condition is that each
slogan must contain the name Thrift
ton Village. The judges i'll be selected
from the members of the league.

ILLINOIS WET CD
VICTORY HOLLOW
AS A SMOKESTACK
Writer Finds No Hope
For Vets In Illinois
Elections

1t was a pleasure 10 head Tor
Illinois. Here was a state that
had cast an overwhelming vote
in favor OF light wines and beer
at the last general election. 1t
was like going back home after
an extended sojourn i'll some
foreign land.
At Chicago | made many in
quiries about how it had been
done. Again | was disillusioned.
The wet victory in Illinois was
as hollow as new smokestack.
The Anti Saloon League made
no fight on the wet and dry
proposition. Instead it sent
out 100000 circulars stating
reasons why patriotic citizens
should refuse to vote on the
beer and wine proposal"
The vets, on the other hand,
campaigned vigorously. 1t is
safe to assume that most of the
vets went to the polls, and that
a great part OF the drys did not
declare themselves. But the
fact remains that in every in
stance save one, where the issue
was clearly drawn between a
wet and a dry, the dry won!
Even in Cook county, which
embraces Chicago, out OF fifteen
men elected to the county board,
eight had the Endorsement OF the
Anti Saloon League-the best
showing the drys ever made in
Cook county election.
Despite the bitter opposition
of the wet newspapers, former
Governor Yates, running Tor
congressman-at-large on
strictly dry platform, beat his
nearest Democratic opponent by
10000. There isn't much con-
ISOLATION for wet in the Illinois
election rcsults,-Jack O'Don-
