REPORTS SHOW PROGRESS Over Two Hundred Members and Treasury is in Good Shape â€"Business Men to Join. The smoke of election has blown .over at tbe Olympic club, and a new set of officers for 1913 has Been elect- ed and installed. Three tickets were in the field, and there was keen riv- alry between the candidates for the various offices. None of the candi- dates were arrayed under any partic- ular name, or were pledged to any platform, there being but one purpose in view for all, to better the club if -elected. Tbe fortunate candidates are as fol- lows: C. E. Leonhardt, president; j. A. Jennings, vice-president; P. Lltchford, secretary; A. Jennings, treasurer. The five men tallying high- est score for directors were: J. Cor- â- coran, C. Dorband, A. B. Arseneau, W. J. McDonougb and R. J. Koen. Organised In July. The first conception of a club of this 'kind was in the mind of Mr. James R. Smart. He related bis plans to the Commercial club, And they heartily ap- proved of his idea. The first meeting was held on May 14, 1912, and about fifteen boys were present to discuss the feasibility of -the scheme with sev- eral members of the business men's association. Steps were taken for the formation of a permanent organization .and this was effected on July 5, with twenty-eight charter members. Since that time the dub has grown to a -membership of 190 and thirty new names are now up for consideration. Business Men to Join. it is also the plan that the business WORKWOMEN MAKE â- ^S0Wl0^ LAKE Work Night and Day in Lake Forest Home to Get to Beach. A force pf workmen is working night and day under tbe $2,000,000 residence of Harold McCormick r.t Lake Forest to complete a tunnel from a point below tbe bouse to tbe beach; Thfs tunnel is being built in order to prevent the hard- ships of scrambling down the bonk^ of a high cliff to the beach. The pit that goes down to the tunnel from the house will contain an elevator, which will carry persons to the bottom of the shaft, where they will be on a level with the beach and can walk out to it. to making the tunnel, the men work in tunnels sealed up, and in com- pressed air which is used to keep the water from coming in from the part al- ready constructed from the lake. Tbe entrance *o the tunnel at the bottom of the shaft will be fitted up as a beau- tiful reception room, with concrete wall and finished in Italian marble. The tunnel is 100 feet long and four- teen feet high. Tbe home will not be ready for occupancy until some time in 1915. WAUKECAN TO USE HARBOR WATER City Engineer Reports Favor- ably on Proposition to Use Water. The city of Waukegan has conceived a new method of getting water for the consumption of the Inhabitants. The method is to have an intake in the city harbor. This seemingly unsanitary plan for supplying water becomes more comprehensible, when an an- alysis by City Engineer Allen showed that the water in the harbor is as pure as that taken from tbe present in- take. The demand for more water comes from the blocking,of the pres- ent intake by the ice hi the winter and from the need for a larger amount of water for sprinkling* purposes in the summer. The city engineer states that with men of Bvanston become associate I the hypochlorite treatment the water members, and If this happens. 250, from the harbor will answer all the requirements. At the present time the intake is situated in tbe path of the sewage from the town and is purified by this treatment. It is probable that in tbe near future tbe inhabitants of Waukegan will be drinking water names w«U be added to the roster. The treasurer made a report of the fi- nances from the time of organization up to date, which showed that $765.68 has been received, and $396.91 has been paid out for expenses of various kinds, leaving a balance of $368.77 in j drawn from the harbor the treasury, of which $284.77 is on deposit in a savings account, and the balance in a checking account to meet current bills. The club rooms are situated on the second and third floors of the city hall, and'were ready for occupancy by the 4th of last November. They are well equipped and furnish various sorts of amusement and physical exer- cise. The club has an indoor baseball team and a basketball squad. Last summer they gave two picnics, one at Michigan City and the other at Mqr- ton Grove. It is the plan to.arrange for a concert in the near future, and to have Sunday afternoon meetings with a speaker to address the boys •on various topics. J. R. Duthie Made Speech. While the ballots were being count- «d Mr. J. R. Duthie, president of the Bvanston Commercial association, talked to the boys. He told them that the formation of a club of the kind was an experiment with the men back •of the movement, and their hopes for its success were not overly inflated, but that their expectations had been exceeded in the way the club had pro- gressed, and that they were expecting greater things in the future. He also complimented them on the stand they had taken against cigarettes, and as- sured them that ttte~assoclatl»u was proud of them. He ended his remarks by saying that the eyes of the business men and the cltlsens of Bvanston were on them, and they expected sreat things in the-future. Messrs. Peter Handier and Peter Miller also save short, snappy talks, full of en- -couragement and praise. * A. phut'was also discussed whereby SUFFRAGE PARADE IN WASHINGTON, D. C. A great demonstration in the cause of woman suffrage will be tbe national suffrage parade, which will take Place op Mar<'» ?â-  in Washington, D. C. The leaders are anxious to have Illi- nois well represented in this great parade, for it is an opportunity to show honor to the state. A great dem- onstration of strength, such as the na- tional suffrage procession affords, will probably do more for the cause than any other one undertaking. It is the first time a procession of such magni- tude has been undertaken, making it all the more urgent that it be of na- tional importance. Special rates are being secured from the railroads. It is hoped that the Bv- anston and other North Shore leagues may be represented in this parade. All who contemplate going should send in their names to the secretary, Mrs. O. N. Carter. 619 University place, at the earliest possible date. All members should be in Washing- ton by Sunday, March 2, and report upon arrival to Miss Geneva P. Stone, jat procession headquarters, 1420 F street N. W.. Washington. D. C.
