More Than 7,000 Witness Demâ€" onstrations at C.M.T.C. on Last Saturday HUGE CROWD VIS!TS FORT VISITING DAY ‘After being sought by her frantic parents and the police in all North Shore cities for several days, Emily Leoni, the 16 year old Highwood girl, who disappeared from her home Monâ€" day morning, was found hiding in the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. 8. Harâ€" rington of Wilmette, who had occasâ€" lomally employed the girl for work as a domestic. ~Emil Lauridsen, chief of Highwood Girl, Lost for Three Days, Is at Home The same thing is true about the work of the church. It is very difâ€" ficult and nearly an impossibility for some people to realize the value of attending church and Sunday school. .’a}h every . Sunday‘s attendance does make its contribution. Silentâ€" ly but surely, though often times slowly, the leaven of truth is doing its work. How is it done? How does it take place? Jesus gave us a startâ€" ling thought relating to the question when He said that for the materially minded man the entire process is beâ€" wildering and confusing for it is beâ€" ond his grasp and comprehension %pcrhaps because it is beyond the realm of his interest). It is difficult to explain the complete process that takes place through the influence of ghe churchâ€"as impossible as it is to analyize the influence of a good friend, yet who is willing to stand forth and deny the benefit and value received from good friendship. _No! Mr. Materialist, you can‘t weight the value of a church‘s influence on your scales of brass and iron, but watch the regular church attendant. If he attends a church that is really awake and â€" alive, regardless fi denominaâ€" tion, more interested in ‘the world in which he lives, and reedy at all times to be of service to both God and His fellow men. The following contribution on the subject, "Why go to church," is writâ€" ten by the Rev. William W. Nelson;, pastor of the Swedish Methodist church, Highwood. It is selfâ€"explanaâ€" tory: ; s * | %6 How many children would attend public school if there were no comâ€" pulsion? Why, you say, many would attend anyway because they realize the importance of getting an educaâ€" tion. You are rightâ€"many would attend school without being compelled to do so, but the fact is also true that other thousands, if not millions, who are now attending would stay home. Why is that statement true? Simply because many children (and even some parents) are not in a position to realize and appreciate the benefits received from and school. To the average chi? a day‘s work in class may e insignificant, but those who are concerned about the education of the child know the value of every class hour. Little by little every day‘s attendance makes its conâ€" tribution until the once illiterate perâ€" son is ablejto read and write and speak intelligently. & Why Go To Church?"

League Race Close; * Team Standings Given In the August National Municipal Review is a timely statement: Beâ€" cause of a great" lack of authentic facts on the best way to select judges, the American Judicative society has asked the National Municipal league to undertake a study on "Selection of judiciary." The committee is beâ€" ing formed with Dean J‘Isttji‘fifller of _ Duke University School â€"of ‘Law, as chairman; and for secretary, Edâ€" ward W,. Martin, of the Public Afâ€" fairs committee of the Union League club of Chicago. ® _ "The terms of the court are held in Springfield in the Supreme Court building. . The constitution states that the court ‘shall have original jurisdiction in cases relafin( to the revenue, in mandamus and ° habeas corpus proceedings, ate jurâ€" isdiction in all other cases‘."â€"~~ _ In selecting a man to serve on the largest judicial body of our state, we should choose a man of integtity, fearlessness, and mature judgment, capable of administering" impartial justice. % 7 "A judge in the supremeâ€" court serves a term of nine years. No perâ€" son is eligible unless he is 30 years old and shall have resided five years in the state next preceding the elecâ€" tion, and shall be a resident in the district from where he is elected." Following a custom of the Â¥llinois League of Women Voters to make an analysis of the requirements of the office to be filled Mrs. Guy Tawâ€" rey, assistant chairman of the Deâ€" partment of Efficiency in Government, answered several questions submitâ€" ted to her: ~Because of the resignation of Jusâ€" tice Wiliam M. Farmer of Vandalia, a special election to choose his sucâ€" cessor will be held in the 2nd Supreme Judicial district on August 31. Polâ€" itical Party conventions selected Harâ€" old â€"S. Williams of Taylorville and Norman T. Jones of Carrolton as Reâ€" publican and Democratic candidates, 1espectively. eae oys Women Voters League ‘ Interested>h Coming Supreme Court Election 6 (1 tied) 6 5 (1 tied) 7 Friday, Sept. 4, a "Father and Sfin" tournament will be_he*d at the Exâ€" moor Country club. Play will be i% two ball foursomes, each pair having half of theirâ€"added handicaps. _*Up for Murdéer" is a depressing story of a â€"young reporter wheo is inâ€" volvedâ€"in the death of a newspaper owner. Lew Ayres and G_mQ'vic Tobin offer fine portrayals but the theme is too unpleasant for discrimâ€" inating audiences. Adults. & e story has ‘plenty of humor and thryills and will be found good enterâ€" taimnment for the entire family. . For the best family picture this coming week we will nominate "Black Camel." It is taken from a detective picture by Earl Derr Biggers. Warâ€" ner Oland again delights us with his loveable characterization of Mr..Chan t‘{m redoubtable Chinese detective. "Chances" is a war story in which the chief figures are two brothers and a girl with whom both are in love. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. and Rose Hoâ€" bart enact the roles allotted to them very excellently. Those who enjoyed the actres in "Lilioun" and "The Lady Surrenders" will be glad to sgsee her in this. Tonight andâ€"tomorrow the picture is "Man in Possession." This highly amusing comedy is full of resqueé sitâ€" vations, but so skillfully played as not to be too vulgar. Robert Montâ€" gomery gives a good performance. Adults:~>> y Honorary directors are: Benjamin L. Behr, Britton I. Budd, Rush C. Butler, Jahn F. Cuneo, Stanley Field, Charles F. Glore, Joseph E.
