As a business man he knows the needs of the district, and with his experience in the Veterinary science is best fitted to serve in the interests of both the farmer and those living in the cities. HE PLEDGES TO SUPPORT A deep water wa/, through the Fox River Valley, from Antioch on the/north through the Chain of Lakes and down the rivei( to Aurora on the south, and as he was one of the main figures in the Dam controversy last summer, gathered valuable information for both Lake and McHenry counties along this line, therefore should be in a position to put this deep water way idea over. FISH HATCHERIES AND GAME PRESERVES The past number of years the cry has been for more Fteh and Game for the district. The $20,000,000 Conservation Bond Issue for which we are to vote on this year will give this district an opportunity to develop the natural resources that to date have had very little attention from our State. Mr. Frett has lived nearly fifty years in this Fox River Valley and knows that there are thousands of acres in Lake and McHenry and some in Boone County that nature made ideal reservations, and should the State buy these acres available for this great necessity, it would increase not only the revenue to the state, but would also create a demand for the idle farms at this time in our district, all of this change of conditions without one cent of direct taxation, for inasmuch as the revenue from Hunting and Fishing licenses will redeem the Conservation Bond Issue in the same manner as the Auto license fees are to redeem the State Road Bond Issue. KNOWS THE FARMERS'POSITION Mr. Frett while not against the T. B. test holds nothing in its favor from some of the experiences that have come to his attention the past three years, and is fully convinced that if the farmer is to continue the Milk making business it will be absolutely necessary to show him more consideration along the line of reimbursement for the cattle lost through the T. B. test. Mr. Frett has not only the experience of a Veterinary wliich is necessary to fully understand the test, but has had a few years cattle buying experience and the value of a milk cow is quite well established in his mind, consequently he will make every endeavor as your representative to get more indemnity for the cattle lost through reacting in the test. Mr. Frett is satisfied, and no doubt many of you fe£l the same that what our district is more in need of than law makers to represent us in Springfield, are men of practical experience, proven character, capable and fearless, in other words 44Go Getters" and to vote for Mr. Frett on April 10th at the Primaries is to write your own gua|ra •n t.e e for j«u st such representation. Send k?™ .AWWkW- . Legislature and you will be represented. Aioluuat Snddet Withta the put year many newspehare expressed uneasiness over t3be supposed wave of "student suicides" which has cropped op so frequently In the news. But recent Investigation by an Insurance company •f statistics on the death rate seems to show that this uneasiness was Tin- Warranted. The mean death rate from suicide In the age group 10 to 19 during the period from 1900 to 1024 was 2.88 per 100,00 persons. As compared with the mortality from" suicide in other age groups, this rate is exceedingly low. For the ages 20 to 89, the mean death rate per 100,000 persons was 12.68; in the 80 to 60 •ge group, 22.64, and in the group 60 years and over, 36.16. If the graphs from these data are drawn to show the trend of the siucide rate in each division, the lines will drop toward •ero la the following manner: The trend line te the 10 to 10 age group would reach aero about the year 1941; In the 20 to 29 years group, in 1936; for the 90 to 50 age group In 1966, and In the group 60 years and over, in the year 2078. The approach to sero Is obviously theoretical. There will probably never be a year Without some suicide. Nevertheless, In the United States suicide is progressively decreasing and the present trend Is most favorable in the adolescent group. Those who complain that we have Jost the art of conversation are sadly mistaken if they think people een't talk Intelligently. The trouble is that there are no listeners now as there were In the old days. It Is the art of listening we have lost, and it undoubtedly is due to the fact that In this day eryybody takes newspapers •nd magazines, and each citizen is so well informed that he wishes to do a great deal of talking. Even when others in the company have the floor he is not listening, but is turning over In his mind the things he will say when It Is his turn to talk. Qood listeners are so rare today that when you meet one and notice that he te paying strict attention, you are embarrassed. The novelty of being listened to causes you to wonder whether you are saying anything worth while. , The veiled Turkish woman lias virtually disappeared; that is to say, a few can still be seen In the small Thraclan villages. In the oldest part of the Stamboul district of Constantlnople not twenty of them were seen In three successive days. The women must have welcomed this form of emancipation, for no despot-could effect such a revolution In women's dress so quickly by a mere exercise of power. Any woman under forty wears short skirts, and usually her stockings are silk. Girls and young women are generally in skirts that fall just below the knee, and 80 per cent of them, as seen on the street or in the Stores, have their hair bobbed. One cannot exaggerate the extent to which Oils westernizing of the Turkish city women has gone. ' The characteristic American desire for luxuries is a good thing, if not carried to extremes, because It stimulates ambition. Among us the man with the best-dressed wife, the finest house the most expensive motor car gains distinction. On tlie whole, it seems right that he should. If he didn't the spur of ambition would be gone. Hu- ( man progress would soon be at a standstill If we lost the urge to rise above our fellows. While there are luxuries to strive for men will keep on trying to get them, says Liberty. Economists have found that the consumption of luxuries is an accurate yardstick of prosperity. It Is characteristic of the United States that the possession of luxuries Is a visible measure of success. \ Vote for Peter Wm. Frett at the Primaries Tuesday, April 10 After every great war there is a period of almost complete safety, when the nations are too crippled and too weary to fight again. During that pierlod--and we are living in such a period now--every rational experiment In building up a new machinery of peace ought to be tried. If the experiments fall and new generations arise not averse from war then it will clearly be necessary for the nation to defend itself on the old terms and in the old ways. * The Ban Francisco Chronicle remarks that "the millennium will be here soon after the nations become as horrified by their own sins as they are by the other fellow's." In that *ase It^i all off. Although sonje of the present-day novelists and playwrights do not seem to know it, there arc a number of aspects of life that are both decent and Interesting. The yell'ow race may dominate the world some day, but not unless the white race gets too yellow te dominate it The protestants against the special tax on safety razor blades ask that it be eat out.

It has been won in the United States Senate, with the passage of the Jones bill. It will be won in the House, but the presence of Mr. Reid is necessary. He cannot come home for campaign purposes, but rests his case with the people of his district. He is opposed by sinister influences which are attempting to destroy him. He needs your help. In the Name of Humanity Referring to the contest in the House, when reporting the bill favored by a majority of the members of the Flood Control Committee, Mr. Beid said in part: "To stave off famine and probably the horrible fate of drowning, the people of the lower Mississip- , pi Valley appeal to us. What shall our answer be ? "Let those loyal to the dollar stand aside while those loyal to humanity come to the front. No cold, discriminating policy of economy will decide this issue, and any party advocating such move had better look to its laurels "Some say that it is not the affair of the United States government to do this work. But who can stand idly by and see that land devastated and depopulated, business interests destroyed, commercial intercourse cut off and people starved and degraded? "It may be the legal right of the government to stand thus idly by, but, if it does, it is not worth the name. And those who do so say do not represent American sentiment; they do not represent American patriotism." Here are a few extracts from letters of organizations that are always on the watch at Washington: Captain John Thomas Taylor, Vice-Chairman, National Legislative Cooimitte, The American Legion: ^ "Mr. Reid has been a consistent friend of The American Legion on all soldier legislation pending before Congress and has responded at all times to requests made by us for assistance in securing the enactment of such legislation." Chester H. Gray, Washington Representative, American Farm Bureau Federation: "The record of Congressman Reid on agricultural affairs is such that his influence here at Washington in future years will be very beneficial to the Nation." Wm. Green, President, American Federation of Labor: "Not only has Representative Reid's vote been 100 per cent in favor of labor, but he has at all times been ready and willing to take up matters in committees and on the floor of the House in the Interests of labor and the people."
