June 14, 1929 WILMETTE LIFE "SEE D.LINOIS FIRST' MOVEMENT IS STARTED Club Opens Campaign for Purpose of Educating People to Sceni~ Attractions of State < · Illinois autoists do not futly appreci.ate the many scenic attractions and historic associations that are to be found in their own state and invariably know little or nothing of its historicmaking spots. So declared Si. Mayer. President of The Automobile Club of Illinois and ardent supporter of an educational movement destined. to promote "See Illinois First" campaign which is to be carried on throughout the entire state. "In seeing 'America First' it might he wen to begin right here at home. If you are planning a tour to any of the picturesque state parks or other places of interest within a few hours' ride of Chicago, you will be more than repaid for the efforts of your journey," stated Mr. Mayer. How many of you have ever visited Black Hawk Park on the Rock River near Dixon, hallowed as the birthplace and the burial ground of the redoubtable Indian Chief, Black Hawk. who made a valiant if futile last stand against the encroachment of the white men? Then there is Old Salem in ~f enard county on the Sangamon, the scene of Lincoln's boyhood and. of his first bvc. Students of Lincoln----and there are manv nowadavs-will find this vanished village ~estored just as it was when the rail-splitter lived there and pitched horseshoes. A visit to Star\'ed Reck in La Salle county on the Illinois River \Yill repay any autoi,t if only for its scenic heauties. Its historic traditions are many, as it was in the claYS of the French expiorers. the site of the ill-fated tomaha"·k fortress e:;tahlished hy Sieur de la Salle and guarded against invasions of the red men by his faithful lieutenant, Tonty. The Cahokia mounds in ~[adi~on and St. Clair counties, rich in Indian legend: the old Lincoln home stead in Springfield, built in 1839. his ' residence at the time he was elected to the Presidenc\· : the ~!eta mora court house in the viliage of that name in \ Vo< dford count\', where Lincoln tried many of his ~arty la\\' cases: the Centennial museum on the site of the old ~inian Edwards home in Springfield (it was there that Lincoln and Mary Todd were married) are shrines holding out unlimited possibilities to the autoist who would like to ·:see Illinois First." Avery human desire Prompts this Ownership o WANT that which is the . finest of its kind is a very human desire-to possess it, a delightful and lasting reassurance. And that is one of the gratifications of Pierce-Arrow ownership-but only one. Another, is a quality of motoring luxury t~at is peculiarly Pierce-Arrow. It comes from a distinguished experience in T engineering and design- plus an adherence to the finest traditions of American coachcraft. 'The new Straight Eight is an ultra-modish expression of the modern motor car. It is long, low-swung, graceful-with extraordinary power and fleetness. And more-it is PierceArrow at its very finest.

Properties of garages and service stations have joined in a c9ncerted fight against the Crown's actton, .and prominent counsel · has b~en re~amed as any decision on the tss.ue ts reO'arded as having a far-reachmg effect. Counsel for one of the defenda!lts claimed that the clause under whtch the charge was laid has been repealed, and that under existing law, the consent of the attorney-general is necessary for prosecution. . Six employees, who pleaded gmlty to a charge of working on Sunday, were fined $5.00 each. The test case, however, will be argued shortly. 12 5 Horsepower Engine ., 8 5 Miles per Hour ., 1 3 3-inch and 14 3-inch Wheelbases Non-shatterable Glass ., Fender or Bracket Headlamps optional without extra charge.
