ROMANCE T0111] BY WIDOW Former HighlandfPa'rk Woman Victim of Los Angeles Svindler. Latter to Be Senténced This story of romance 1nd fortune circling about Mrs. Hallie Chamber llln of Los Gatos. Call. who was formerly Hallie Guvitt of Highland n n LVI u.-. Park. daughter of Chaplain H. C. Gavitt, is reprinted from the recent issue of a Los Angeles newspaper. The Gavitt family lived on Fort Sheridan avenue for several years before their removal about five years ago. The story follows: An amazing story of how a widow with three children lost $5000 to (‘onstantino V. Riccardi, former Los Angeles attorney. love pirate and bon vivant. now awaiting sentence on a v'harze of embezzling the funds of a client in San Francisco, was revealed yesterday when Mrs. Hallie (‘ham- OU’RE going to vote for somebody for Presi- dentâ€"eat the Preference Primary, Tues, Apr. 13. It is your one opportunity to let the country know where you stand. When you come right down to it, remember that you really will be voting for yourself when you vote for the man you believe in and the man you want. You will be voting for your- self because he will be the man you want to represent you and your ideas in the White House. NO PRIMARY in the history of Illinois has meant so much to the average man in this state. The “Favortie Son" idea and blind partisanship should, have nothing to do with this question. It is beyond that; more than that. You want the man whose charac- ter and abilities have been proved in the actual conduct of great national and international afiairs; not merely tried in the problems of any one state. This is the one time of all others when an outstanding national figure should be selectedâ€"Leonard Wood is the man. He turned a bankrupt nation. notable chiefly for starvation. disease and disorder. into one of the most contented and prosperous muntries in the world. Paid all her debts and left $1,000,000 in her treasury. ‘ All this work has passed into the solid achievement of historyâ€"a record worthy of a Washington or a Lincolnâ€"a irainihg seeming- ly ordained to fit Leonard Wood for President of the United States.

He dob: n". Remember. neither candidate was born in Illinois. Both are sons of other states. One was born in Min« nesota, the other in New Hampshire. Minnesota has already given her over- whelming vote to Leonard Wood against her “native son" candidate. South Dakota has followed with an endorsement equally strong for Leonard Wood. Both have lived outside of Illinois; Both now live in Illinois. Do not be misled on this issue. You should vote solely on their fitness for President. Leonard Wood has been tested and tried. He found Cuba in a condition of squalor and savage anarchy. For more than a century it had sufiered military oppression, which has few parallels in history. For more than two centuries it had been the fever- plagued spot of the world. The streets were 0 en sewers. PeopIe were dying-by t e thousand. Theisland was infested by bandits and brigandsâ€"only profiteers flourished. It was Leonard Wood's task to build a republic out of this military colony, prostrated by four years of warfare; to build a republic in a country where popular elections were unknown and where the vast majority of the population couldn't even mark a ballot. He cleaned the streets and rid the island of yellow fever. Beginning at the bottom he taught the people to read and write â€"â€" established a s 'stem of schoolsâ€"â€"and then trained t em in self-gove'rnment. He abolished profiteenng 1nd eradicated comption He prowlded Cuba With a consti- mtiamand established swift. impartial jam “General Wood is a national figure mt! he been one for over twenty yean.

One of the greatest gifts in statelmanship as well an in business is the ability to choose the right man for the right work. Leonard Wood has this ability. In Cuba from the very start he chose Cubans as members of his cabinet. That is one of the reasons they loved him-- that is why they worship him to this day. The Encyclopedia Britannica flatly states that Leonard Wood struck 05 the shackles of mlll- tary control to which the colony had been pre- viously sub,ected and converted it into a nation governed for the Cuban: and by the Cub‘ans. This then is the record of Leonard Wood in Cubaâ€"a record of the far-sighted admin:- smtor and mtumanâ€"yu. a union builder. , His work in the Philippines is equally as maxvelous as in Cuba. Theodore Roosevelt said of his work: "It would'be difficult to find anywhere: finer record of successful accomplishment."
