Waliton | Mrs. Alma Lucretia Walton, nee: Converse, was born in Grant Town--, ship, Lake County, IIL, August 30, 1858. She was reared in this com-- munity and lived here all 'her life, which was 69 years, 7 months ands 4 days. On Jan. 5, 1875, she was married to John Henry Walton, who sur-- vives and mourns the temporary separation but rejoices over her vic-- torius Christian life. They were a devoted couple and his tender min-- istry during her illness was beautifu! to see. ' As a mother every ane knows how devoted she was to her family and how beautiful it was to see the chnil-- dren with loving hands returning the tender care she had exemplified. As a neighbor and friend, many here can testify to her sympathy» and help in their hour of need. PAGE EIGHT Mrs. Frances Augusta Raught Frances Augusta Williams was born at Glenco Mills, Columbia County, New York, August 20th, 1840. She was mariied to Ambrose | Raught on New Year's Eve in 1863,| at the home of her parents in Glenco | Mills. They came to Illincis lboutl 1870, and lived for 38 years on a farm at Volo in the western part of the county. They moved to Liber-- tyville 15 years ago, and immediate-- ly united with the First Methodist Episcopal Church, July 24th, 1908, by letter from Volo, under the pu-l torate of the Rev. H. F. Lawter. Sister Walton joined the church when she was young thus dedicating her life to God, to hes family and to the community. She was the Presi-- dent of the Ladies Aid Society and always a very active worker for the church while she had the health and strength. She belonged to Relief Corps, No. 38 of Wauconda and ren-- dered valuable assistance there. For 19 years she managed the cemetery, collecting the money, employing the mowers and cleaners and took pride in keeping the resting place beauti-- ful. On Memorial Days, she was the one who collected the flowers and decorated the graves, thus keeping fresh the memory of loved ones who haq passed before. | We wisn to thank al} our friends and neighbors for their kindness during the sickness and death of our mother and for the beautiful flowers, also the singers and pastor. Mr. John Waiton. Mr. Jason Walton. Mr. and Mrs. George Walton. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dillon Mr. and Mrs. A. Kaulenberg Mr. and Mrs. H. Kruger. To this union was born 5 chil-- dren, all of whom are living and present, Jayson, who resides at home, George of Libertyville, Mrs. Jennie Dillon of Volo, Mrs. Maud Kautenberg of Waukegan, Mrs. Elsie | Krueger of Wauconda. Il!. There were fourteen _ grandchildren of! whom 13 are living. There remain| of the deceased's family one broth--| er, Elam Converse, of Nashville.! Tenn., and one sister, Cynthia Con-i way of Three Quick, Idaho. | Mrs. Raught was an earnest Chris-- tian, always watching to do a kind act for some one. Her mind was bright, her memory wonderful for one of her years. No children came to bless their union. An adopted daughter passed away five years Ago. "Auntie Raught" will be missed by her neighbors. She was ill only a short time, and on Thursday morning, April 12tn she went to sleep to awaken in the Homeland where she will join the family circle whe being the last one of the family.

He has been auditing the books for the township for several | years. IAUDI'I'OB'. REPORT PROGRESS8 _ ON VILLAGE RECORDS | _ Therefore it is entirely up to the !voters on Tuesday to determine : whom they want to place in charge: | of the business of the village for the | next two years. 'The candidates are | all good men and good citizens. The { pay is altogether inadequate, and you. are getting the service of men whom you would trust in any other field of | endeavor if you were dealing with |\them. It is not a piece of personal | feeling toward anyone, but it is a \case of your village being in dire need for first class expert servents | and it is up to the voter to determine | who can best give this. Considerr | the matter carqully and act in the| | same way you would in your own 'busines.s. And above all, after the| | votes are counted and the victors in-- 'stalled in office, forget all pettyi !gfievwecs and make up your minds | lto eo--operate with your board and| | work with them for the welfare of | the entire village and comrimnity,J for without the co--operation of the | people of the village the best board | under the sun will fall down in its j work of giving us economical munic-- ipal government. | Begin Audit Of Ex--Sup-- efvisor Bairstow's Books SUNNYSIDE PARK PLAT IS FILED WITH BOARD placed in the alleys. Merrill J. Achen officially took office as supervisor Tuesday, when he filed his bond with Charles E. Jack, clerk of the town board. He succeeds George Bairstow. _ Supervisor Achen reports that Bairstow turned the books over to he and Mr. Simms this morning. at least three times during the 24 hours of each day -- Something will have to be done to increase the water supply and furnishing ample pump-- ing and storing fecilities, and the village is fast outgrowing the pres-- ent system. At the time of the leak in the service line at the greenhouse the pumps failed entirely to keep up the pressure, and had there been a fire during that time, the loss of prop-- erty would have been disasterous. An engineering mistske in the designing of plans for the relief of either the sewer or water systems, with the bond--eapacity of the vil-- lage limited as it is, will probably lead to a failure to obtain the proper use by the village of its present water and sewer systems. A special meeting of the board of supervisors will be held next Mon-- day and a chairman for the ensuing year elected. The voters in considering the sit-- uation should look at it simply as not a question of like and dislike, but a question of whom they would employ to do their work if they were hiring an expert engineer. Any bonds for sewage disposal or addi-- tion to water plant must be approved by the voters. Supervisor Achen says that when Mr. Simms completes his audit he will have his personal auditor re-- check the books. C Gardens cut down expenses, but you nave to dig 10r your mopey.

Williagn F. Weiss, Wauke-- gan, pleaded in behalf of an amend-- ment exeluding hospitals and nurses from the act. times, that several small hospitals would have to close their doors. Only the rich, it was stated, could afford to have three nurses a day. As it is now, a day and a night nurse are employed in serious cas-- es, and at about $40 a week or about $350 a month. It was pointed out by those behind the amendment that the aveiage wage earner would be placed in a serious strait by the change which might require $500 a month for nurses. . It would mean, several held, that most patients would be left without adequate care and this in many cas-- es might possibly result in death. Despite these arguments the amendment to the woman's bill was defeated by the members of the house. The bill calling for one day of rest out of seven had a hearing yes-- terday in the committee of the sen-- ate. A show of fight is expected, labor favoring the bill. Says Wage Earner Can't Afford Three Nurses a Day When Ill The amendment finally lost in the house after a fierce battle. It was pointed out in the fight over the bill which raged sharply at 20 and 80 acres of land south of Dugdale road to 8th street, for a sum of $30,000. This would be in line with the company's policy of building in that section. Better service for the electric line will result from the change. The Highwood shops will be kept, but they will operate with reduced force. The Waukegan plant will bear the bulk of the work. It will be several years before the full change is ef-- rected as the financial and construc-- tion ends of the work have to be completed first. REP. WEISS IN FIGHT ON BILL m eczema.
