At the present time there are three as- sistant deans of men. All sorts of problems are solved for the student, from those for the one down and out financially to those of the boy worrying over his first college ro- mance. Dean -Clark says that there is no class of problem nor personality which the office has not met. The old opinion of the office of the Dean of Men was that it was disciplin- ary, an agent for bringing the student in on the "green carpet" to accuse him, and punish him for misdemeanors. As a matter of fact, Dean Clark is the Chairman of the Committee on Disci- pline for men, and when disciplinary means must be used, they are used through this office and the disciplinary committee.

HAAS The great problem of our times is, how to reduce the burden of taxation | which is crushing modern business | and destroying modern home life. For his efforts in reducing that bur- den, and the results which he has achieved, Joseph F. Haas, Recorder: of Deeds of Cook County, is entitled to the sincere thanks of the people of Cook County. The watchword of the entire life of Joseph F. Haas has been service to the people. His record has been one! of tried and proved efficiency, of a man sho delights in rendering real | service to the public. His ripe ex-' perience, his mature judgment, his un- questioned integrity and his real abil- ity have been sources of pride to his friends and of profit to the people. He was the father of the First For- est Preserve Act ever passed by the! Legislature. The act received its name --Forest Preserve Act--in the original bill introduced by Joseph F. Haas while State Senator. Also as Senator he introduced and caused to be passed the act creating the Municipal Court and abolishing the ancient and often corrupt justice courts which were a disgrace to the Community. In fact, he secured for the people more impor- tant Chicago legislation than any man who ever sat in the Slate Senate. In 1926 he was elected to his pres- ent position as Recorder of Deeds and | Registrar of Titles of Cook County, Illinois. In 1920 he was re-elected by a majority of over 300,000 votes. As] Recorder of Deeds and Registrar of Titles he instituted a merit system of | appointments in both the Recorder's | (CJice and Torrens Office whereby ef- ficiency is recognized and stimulated. | In December, 1923, J. L. Jacobs, ef | ficiency expert appointed by the County Board of Cook County. made the following report to the Judges of | the Circuit Court of Cook County, on the administration of Joseph F. Haas, es Recorder of Deeds: "The analysis into the organization, the work done by the individual em- mere third; Heinsheimer, (N. T.) fourth, (S.) third; Davis (N. T.) fourth. fourth. Time, :272/5.

Detroit aaa 4 An All-Purpose Truck At A Remarkable Price The new Ford all-steel body and cab mounted on the famous Ford One-Ton Truck chassis provide a complete all-purpose haulage unit at the remarkably low price of $490. Built of heavy sheet steel, strongly re-inforced, this staunch truck is designed to withstand severe usage in a wide range of industries. Generous loadirg space, four feet by seven feet two inches, permits easy handling of capacity loads and provision fis also made for mounting of canopy top or screen sides. Experienced drivers appreciate the weather-proof features of the steel cab, which is fitted with removable door-opening curtains.

The Recorder of Deeds and his depart- ment heads and the personnel deserve commendation for the efficient man- agement which has been maintainec in spite of the handicaps under which this office is working in the matter of limitation of space and difficult work- ing conditions." The results of that efficiency are not matters of conjecture. They show in actual profits made for the people of Cook County. During the year 1923 as Recorder of Deeds and Registrar of Titles, Joseph F. Haas handled more than half a million doc uments. They were documents which vitally affected the business life of the entire county. Errors in their han- dling would mean loss to those relying thereon. Yet that immense volume of work was handled, not only without loss, but with a profit of over one hundred thousand dollars to the peo ple of the county. That profit means the decreasing of general taxes. A decrease of general taxes all along the line will ultimately mean decreased rents for those who must pay rents. Owners and tenants alike nwe it to themselves tc re-elect Joseph F. Haas as Recorder of Deeds of Cook County. To such a man who has the courage of his own convictions, who has the determination to fight for what is right, clean and just, to such a man who stood unafraid in doing what he thought was his full duty to you and yours, you can do your part and say "well done, thou good and faithful servant," by voting for his renomina- tion as Recorder of Deeds in the Re- publican Primaries on April 8, 1924. His nan c¢ appears second on the Re- publican bollot under Recorder of Deeds. His record is first in effi ciency. : Vote for Joseph F.
