The intense interest and enthus- iasm manifested by the young people of the district not only in seeing these films but in listening to the talks on them by grade pupils convinces the parents of the inherent or acquired appreciation of educational motion pictures. Grown-ups are interested, too, and altogether it is a very “hap- py family” which meets at Lsrimer School Friday evenings. â€" North Shore REview. Dry: Bumped at Wauconda The saloon element of Waueonda has just dropped a. bomb into the ranks of the “drys” by their discov- ery that through an error in the maln'ng out and filing of the “dry” petition the latter is not in nccord- ance with the law. The “drya,” ac- cordingly, have withdrawn the dry petition which was filed with the town clerk at Wauconda early in February and the result will be that the prop- osition will not be placed on the bal- lot at the regular town election, April 4th. To Train Employee at Null Station These Pathescope evenings are be- coming more and more popular an ideal condition when parents, teach- ers and pupils on unite in a common interest, one which has a background of entertainment as well as educaâ€" tional vnlue. Last Christmas Mrs. George B. Dryden presented the school with a first-class moving-picture outfitâ€"the Pathescopeâ€"and since that time Lar- imer pupils have fairly reveled in educational films on all kinds of sub- jects. They luvs one reel every morn- ing, and on Friday evenings these same reels ue shown to the public, preceded by a description from a pupil. Mr. Smith, when 'asked if it is true that he is a candidate, admitted that such is the case, adding that he already has some of his primary pe- titions filled out and ready for filmg.â€"Waukegan Sun. Motion Pictures in the School Of the various experiments along educational lines none is musing more enthusiasm than the one being tried out at Larimer School, Evanston. Mr. Smith’s entnmce into the race will add keen interest to the political depe in Lake county, as prior to now, it had been reported that Welch would be Dady's only opponent. A. V. Smith of Waukegan has for- mally announced himself a candidate for the Republican nomination for state's attorney of Lake county in opposition to film incumbent, R. J Dady, and James G. Welch who for some time has been an avowed can- didate for the nomination. 3 CANDIDATES FOR STATE’S ATTORNEY Three Candidates for State’s Attorney Motion Pitta". in Evnuon School.

The heads of sl- most all the factories 1nd industries of this district have declared for a dry town. What is good for the men is good for the community. We are for the factory, we are for the men and we are for the community. We areFOR a dry township and the highest order of citiienship. The saloon stands in the way of civic progress. It lowers the standard of our manhood; wnstes the result of his labor and is a menace to his home and children. There is no room for the norrproducer in the big sf- fu'rs of life. The uloon must to." The Saloon Must Go "In the last wet and dry fight the city of North Chicago over-rode the desires .of the voters of Waukegan by a few votes and keptthe entire township wet. In spite of the fact that the people of Waukegan proper declared for a dry town they have been compelled to stand for two years of saloons in order that a small portion of North Chicago might have saloons. The past two years in the wet portion of our city has shown the same fallacy of allowing the sa- loon, a non-producer, to sap the sav- ings and vitality of our citizens. Why, then, should we force the sa- Ioon on that portion of Wnukegnn township which two years :30 de- clared imlf for a dry city, simply be- cause one portion of our city, one precinct, the tenth, to be exact, an be depended on to cast wet votes enough to overcome the dry majority of the rest of the township? 1; it fair to the balance of the township? The election will be particularly in- teresting beceuee of the feet thet it is not to be conducted 'by the clergy- men who have heretofore leborod un- sparingly, but by the manufnctumx, business men and workmen who ere interested in the economical and po- litical advancement of that territory. The Times-Review, North Chicago'- progressive newspaper, who in the past have stood by the saloon, last week published the following edi- torial; ‘ 'hvo year: ago the township of Waukegan would have gone dry but for the heavy wet vote in the tenth precinct, which is in the north and of North Chicago. On April 4th the question will again appear on the ballot. North Chic-co Paper to Buk Ila-face- W in “I“ Attila! Boon. C. l I. EURCATCIFIRE Succeed-di- Exfluuhhin' It.

It was doubt- ed whether many mothers would re- spond because of the weather but during the day nineteen little lads and lassies were examined by the doctors and many mothers disap- pointed because time would not al- low theif babies to be scored. A gfid deal of work was done by all orénizations in the city and everything went 03 very smoothly and suchssfully. Mrs. Otis Beards- ley. as president of the Ossoli Club, put forth untiring effort to make the plan eta-cessful. Mrs. Beatty, as chairmah of the whole affair proved herself to be very efiicient and through her enthusiastic effort has caused titizens of Highland Park to believe that “Baby Welfare Cam- paign" is not to be a “passing show," but a permanent organization, Too much caedit cannot be given Mr. Sol- omon St. Peter who gave liberally of his time and ability which were a winning feature of the affair. The Highland Park Business Men’s Asso» ciation as a body did a great deal to n‘ake the campaign quite worth while. Othe displays were shown by Pur- dy s a.

The employment of similar blanks last year met with considera- ble favor. With the growing recog- nition of the effectiveness of the tele- gram in its modern form, such as the day letter and night letter, as a ve- hicle (or family and social messages, there has been a large increase in its use for communications of a person- al character. particularly for convey- ing messages of seasonal greetings. The telegraph company is responding to this development by making pro- vision for specially designed mange, forms in keeping with the spirit 0! the occasion.

Tom Clark came near a record last week when he got a 270 game. Highland Park lost all three match- es to Hank Morino’s team last Satur- day night, the games being rolled on the local alleys. A big crowd was on hand :0 cheer our men, but the out-of-town fellows were there with the goods. The Highland Park team will leave for Toledo Saturday, where they are scheduled to bowl in the na- tional tournament on Sunday and Monday. By “Cub” Moon MacNanly and his men. are still up in front in the‘ race for first plue, by winning last week’s odd game from Foy. Mac and his bowlers are going very strong. and should be well up at the top at the close of the sea- son. The league race comes to an end May 12th. and when you consider how time flies, it is not very far away. TWelve weeks have already gone by like a “twentieth century” and the remaining ten will probably go just )3 fast. The big features at‘ the end of the season will be the splitting of the‘ prize money and the big feed.
