This requires our government to keep valous armed forces always in readiness to care fo rordinary disor-- des and protect citizens; and the army the national guard, to take care of the larger disorders and repel the lesser attacks of outside nations. It also re-- quires governments to plan ahead and to use foresight to know just what to to do to protect and defend their peo-- ple against possible attack by strong nations, It is for this that our govern-- ment has given us the National De-- fense Act. Under the provsions of this Act, the President of the United States has directed that the first Defense Test for the whole country will be initiated on Beptember 12th, the sixth anniversary of the Battle of 8t. Mihiel. Civic or-- ganizations, in cooperation with mili-- tary authorities and representatives of the civil government, are working to-- gether all though our land to make this demonstration of© preparedness successful. Patrioti¢t assemblies, par-- ades of locat units of the army, civic and veteran societies, are to take place in every locality. The exercises of the day will be a test of power, but It will be more than that--it will re-- ¥eal to ourselves and to other nations that the ?flt of Anterica has not lost ba vigor during the days--which have gone since the end of the great war for civilization. s A committes of the village Board of mm}w-enuu'e citizens and and veterans of the--armed service of the country, is working out plans to make Defense Day a red letter day in the histor yof Libertyvilie Arrange-- ments for the program have not yet been completed, but next week an-- nouncement of the plans will be made.

TAYLOR IN BAD STORM ON ATLANTIC OCEAN that Dr. and Mrs. J. R. Taylor and Donald Eaton had arrived in Ne York from Europe, where they have been traveling for the past three months. Today's Chicago newspapers carry ac-- counts of a hurrican on the Atlantic Word was received by Libertyville relatives this (Thursday) morning ocean, which struck the White Star Hner Arabic Tuesday afternoon off Nantucket, which played more or less havoc with shipping for three days. The Arabic was hard hit by the ter-- rific waves, and a score of her passen-- gers were taken from the steamer in abmulances. 'The starboard bow of the Arabic was hit by a giant wave, shat-- tering the upper structure from bow to stern, and throwing everybody in a heap. A steward was washed over-- board. The wind reached a velocity of 120 miles an hour, throwing up great pyramids of water, as high as sixty--five feet. . EXTRA! A large number of the passengers were injured, but Dr. Taylor and his party escaped. Dispatches to Chicago commend Dr. Taylor for the effective way in which he attended to the in-- juries of his more unfortunate fellow travelers. This is said to bhave been tht worst storms ever recorded on the Atlantic ocean. DEATH THREAT IN BLACKWELL CASE; "Grom told me personally that he pald Blackwell several thoausand dol-- lars for protection, but according to his attormney he's afraid to testify to that fact on the witness stand, for fear his associates will carry out their 'code of ethics'.", Grom, a former Dundee resident, was arrested on a perjury complaint, signed by Attorney Willlam Pierce of Belvidere, special prosecutor in McHenry county prohibition violation cases. ~Plerce charged the roadhouse proprietor with "failure to tell the truth and answer questions" before the grand jury. Grom was released on $3,500 bonds and hearing was set this week. "It's a 'code of eth}cl' among beer-- runners," declared Attorney Joslyn, "to kill any beer--runner who 'squeals' on anyone they pay to or reéceive money from, even if they are 'gypped' on the deal. , "Attorney Ward Sullivan of Ch+ cago, representing Grom, told me that his client would get 'bumped off be-- fore morning if he testified to what he knows about Blackwell and the bribery charges against him,." de clared Attorney D. R. Joslyn, Sr., spe clal assitant county prosecutor. . Fear of Death at Hands of Beer Runners Prevented "Squeal-- +ing," Attorney Says. Of the eighteen indictments raturn-- ed. twelve were for prohibition viola-- tion, and are as follows: Ira Blackwell, A. J.

PERJURY CHARGE Other indiectments -- returned his home in this village for more than half a century, died last Thursday night, of diseases incident to old age. Mr. Bulkley was one--of the oldest, if not the oldest residents in the county, For many years he followed the voca-- tion of farmer, but retired some years ago. Besides his wife, he leaves two daughters, Mrs. Mabel Knox, of Liber-- tyville, and Mrs. Ann Smith, of Chi-- cago. He also leaves many other rel-- atives in Libertyville and Lake county.

WALLACE BULKLEY, OLDEST MAN IN THE COUNTY, PASSES ON Had Made His Home in Lib-- ertyville for Half a Century, Was 97 Years Old. Stories, often told by the pioneer, and repeated again to give a compari-- son of the early 80's with the present time, indicate the vast change that has been brouxht\ about by© modern science. -- The passing of time and the achieve-- ments of a race might well be read in the death of Wallace Bulkley of Lib-- ertyville, who died at his home Friday morning after living a span of 97 years. In his youth he .often hunted the wild deer with nothing more than clubs, and it was not at all uncommon to capture and kill several of the ani-- mals in the course of a day. This form of hunting was staged in winter and he, accompanied by his compan-- ions would startle a herd and chase it to the lakes or ponds where it would break through the thin ice and be easy prey to the practically unarmed hunter. * Mrs. Golda Ray, of Waukegan, Fri-- day filed suit for divorce from Ansel Ray, an employe of the American Bteel & Wire company, whom she charges with cruelty and association with dissolute women. He knew the w before --the days of the grailroad. In fact he was a good sited boy before the first rails were laid in the United States, The covered wagon, old stage coach, and saddle horse formed the chief forms of transportation then.

Mrs. Ray had him arrested recent-- ly on charges of being out with an-- other woman. The bill states he earnos $40 a week at the wife mill and is in a position to provide for his family. Ray, who lives at 556 South Sheri-- dan road, and is about 21 years old, was arrested several weeks ago with Mary Daiton, 20, on charges preferr-- ed by Mrs. Ray. The Daiton woman sald her home is at IibertyviNe, but had been staying at 558 Water St. The young woman promised to leave town but Ray was bound over to the grand jury on a charge of wife and child abandonment. ; Charges He Has Been Asso-- ciating with Dissolute Women And Has Been Cruel. He admitted, according to the po-- lice, that he had been paying atten-- tions to the Dalton woman, At that tt'::o the Ray baby was only 12 days old.
