The vote was 11 to I In favor If the plan. Alderman Utpatel was i je only solon to oppose It.' He laracterized it as a "lemon on ,Htg" which would bring an expend* [re greatly in excess of the benefit be derived from the improvement Means Much to Bvanston. The approval of the plap by the >mmittee means a great deal to jrth shore autoists. When the new tructure 1b erected it will not be jecessary for them to remain in line half an hour to cross the Rush treet bridge, as it has been since ie growth of automobile traffic has ield up passage near the bridge dur- ig the busy hours. Alderman James F. Burns of the wenty-first ward Introduced a mo- lion to the effect that the committee ipprove the project and Alderman Fohn KJellander .of the Twenty-third ard seconded It. Both had opposed Lpproval of the plan on a former oc- casion. 'I wish to state that I never was tpposed to the plan," said Alderman lurns. "I was against pressing it at [hat time because I wanted every al- lerman to be informed on Its details tefore voting. We have been in- led and I am for it heart and I, as everyone who cares for Chi- >'« welfare must be." Alderman KJellander explained his disposition In the same way. The boulevard link plan, when car- ont, will be one of the greatest (toward a "city beautiful" pro- vided for in the Chicago plan. It will Michigan boulevard, together its connection with the Lake Jtore drive, one of the noted drive- re in the world. It p-ovides for. the widening of th Michigan avenue from Bast idolph street to the river, by mov- the building line on the east side the street back sixty-four feet and widening of Pine street (to be led Lincoln parkway) from the Iter to Bast Chicago avenue, by mov- lg the building line of the west side >f the street back seventy-five feet. Connection by Bridge. These two streets then will be con- lected by an ornate double-decked [bascule bridge stretching across the [Chicago river diagonally frlm Mich- san avenue to Pine street The upper [deck of this bridge will be for auto- [mobile and the lower for ordinary [traffic. It will cost $7,000,000, It is estimat- ed, to make the improvement One- third of this cost will be .provided by bond issue, as representing the bridge investment and the remainder will be met by proceeds of special assessment. Alderman Kunz denounced the pro- ject as a scheme of rich property owners and real estate men. "I am very much surprised at the fearless gentleman, who, because of his fear of criticism, has second- ed the motion for the passage of this bill," he said. Kunx Denounces Plan. "This plan, while helping to beau- tify the city a little, will benefit the wealthy property owners along Mich- igan avenue the most And it is these rich people who are now dodging their taxes and coming here before this committee trying to dictate the policy of the city council. If you will look into the assessors' books you will find every one of these rich per- sons down without a tax schedule at all or with one that amounts to about 1 per cent of what it should be. And yet these tax dodgers come In here and say to us members that we are responsible men and try to direct us in their schemes to grow more wealthy. It is the poor man who pays for projects like this, while the rich man is the one who dictates. "For eight years real estate men along Michigan avenue have been try- ing to push this scheme through the city council. But still I don't see how we are going to get away from putting this deal through. I think the con- struction of the project will far ex- ceed 17,000,000, however. If you go into court to condemn the property along Michigan avenue yon will have to pay every leaseholder along the avenue, which will make the cost of the boulevard over $10,000,000." Votes for Scheme. Despite the fact he opposed the measure in every way. Alderman Kunz cast his vote in favor of it say- ing that he saw no other way around it Alderman Utpatel then declared he did not think Che plan had been put squarely before the people and refused to vote for it Among those who bitterly opposed the scheme was former Alderman John MInwegan. "This plan should not go on the way it is," he declared. "The assess- ment should be spread upon the abut- ting property owners along Michigan avenue, who are-the real beneficiaries, and not among the property owners as far west as La Salle street There is a nigger in the woodpile some- where in this scheme, and I think the aldermen should take more time in trying to find him." WINNETKA YOUTH HOME FROM BIG GOLF TRIP Frazer Hale Returns From Tour of Western Cities, Where He Made Good Scores. Fraser Hale, son of Henry Hale of the Winnetka State bank, returned home Thursday from a month's trip throughout the west bb a member of the champion golf group of the mid- dle west Although only 20 years old, young Hale is recognized as one of the leading golf players along the north shore. For this distinction he was chosen a member of the crack team which played during the last few weeks in every city of import- ance In the west on a tour arranged by a Chicago newspaper. Mr. Hale does not return home with- out winning laurels. He is one of two members of the group who did not lose a single match on the entire trip. While this does not mean that he met all of the prominent western golfers,' as Hale was No. 7 on the team, it does bespeak much credit for his splendid playing. Much Pleasure In Tour. While the golfers were forced to practice much to meet the western sportsmen, yet they thoroughly en- joyed every minute of the trip. They found the westerners very hospitable and anxious to provide every accom- modation for their entertainment Sev- eral boat trips were made along the Pacific coast Included in the list of cities visited by the Chicago and middle west golf- ers were St. Paul, Butte, Mont., Seat- tle, Tacoma, Portland, Vancouver, B. C, Salt Lake City, Colorado Springs, Denver, and Omaha. Hale is an associate member of the Skokie Oolf club and has been prom- inent on the links for several seasons. Because he is under age, he is not admitted to full membership of the club, and consequently has not been allowed to represent the prominent north shore club In any of its big matches.

The inquest over the body °' tne man found dead In the' woods near Niles, at the end of Church street, Sunday, June 22, was reopened Tues- day afternoon at the Schaefer morgue. The body has been identified as that of John Finney* a former member of the Rldgemoor Golf club, whose home was in Portsmouth; Ohio. Finney is supposed to have ended his life with the revolver found by Chief of Police Shaffer near the spot where the body was lying in the woods.

It has now developed that Finney was a member of a wealthy Ohio family and is said to have spent a fortune.

Everybody in Kenilworth enjoyed the~~wholesdme observance of the village. Probably one feature which stood out most prominently in the fete was the automobile parade in the morning,, which started the festivities. For several days the villagers labored hard in arranging fancy decorations on their autos. More than forty vehicles, ranging from the big, power- ful gasoline automobiles to the quiet electrics and neat pony rigs took part in the parade, which was headed by Chief of Police John Keane, who rode a horse. Following the popular offi- cer, the village officials, including Henry Taylor, president of the village board, and the trustees, rode In auto- mobiles. The following is the list of prize winners for the best decorated autos in the parade: Best decorated auto- mobile, Mrs. A. A. Rlghter; best deco- rated auto with flags, Mrs. Stuart; beat decorated pony cart, Luther Hammond; best decorated electric with flags, Mrs. William S. Kies.

VOTE MEOIGAt TEST IN WILMEnE SCHOOLS -r&> Dr. Moore Named by School Board to Conduct Inspection ofPupite* Health, f Tho Wllmette school board at its June meeting, Thursday night voted unanimously to install a system of medical Inspection; such as obtains in so many towns and villages. ' The plan of medical inspection at the beginning of each term, and daily if necessary, during seasons of epi- demic, will be observed. Dr. E. E. Moore of Wllmette has been employed by the school board for the position of medical inspector in the Wllmette public schools. He Is a man of experience in this line and stands ready to assist the1 people of Wllmette in conserving the health of the children. The Physicians' club has heartily endorsed Dr. Moore for this place and has voted him their united support in the work. Patrons of the schools are asked not to confound medical inspection and physical examinationâ€"two differ- ent propositions. At the opening of school on Sept. 8 the absolute requirement of a certifi- cate from the school Inspector or any other reputable physician will be made before a pupil may enroll In our schools, and the same requirement will be made before a pupil may re-enter school after an absence of three days or more from any illness. . This is all planned In accordance with well-tried and successful medical Inspection in schools elsewhere, even in our neighboring north shore towns, and a cheerful observance of the scheme and plan will bring about, through co-operation of parents and the schools, a much better condition for the safeguarding of Wllmette chil- dren. FLY POPULATION COSTS NATION MANY MILLIONS Government Experts Have Fin- ished Report Showing Big Losses From Insect. The fly population of this country costs the United States, annually. 1157,200.000. This does not Include the loss of human life. These figures have been given out by government ex- perts, who have been making a study of the germ-spreading activities of the fly. Tuberculosis cases, directly at- tributable to the fly, are responsible for the expenditure of 150,000,000 for treating these cases, while $70,000,000 represents the cost of typhoid fever cases originating from the insect. Besides this, the fly is charged with the expenditure of $37,200,000 as being a carrier of intestinal fever and sum- mer diseases, and a transportation agency of dysentery. Satisfactory results are reported in every city in the country where anti- fly campaigns have been carried on. In Washington, the experts say, there has been a noticeable falling off of the Insect The methods employed in Washington have been approved in a bulletin Issued by the state entomolo- gist of Minnesota. ,The Washington plan started with a clean-up campaign, which was fol- lowed by means of bringing to the at- tention of citisqns, through educa- tional posters, letters and newspaper articles, suggestions for fly eradication that have been tried out with success in various cities.
