Shoes--First Floor MEETING OPENS VOTE DRIVE FOR PENFIELD Gathering of New Trier Residents Promises Support for Coun- ty Commissioner Laudatory expression of their ap- preciation of the services of Frederick W. Penfield as county commissioner; their determination to do all within their power to secure his re-nomina- tion at the primary election on April 13 and stirring appeals for a: nearly a one hundred percent vote as possible on this date, as well as in all future elections, were voiced most enthusiastically at the dinner given for Mr. Penfield at the Skokie Country club, Glencoe, Monday evening. One hundred fifty voters, both men and women, were present from the four villages of Wilmette, Kenilworth, Winnetka and Glencoe, many of whom personally voiced the sentiment ex- pressed in the foregoing, while those who, because of lack of time were not permitted to do so, heartily applauded those who did speak and gave unques- tionable approval of what was said and done. Following the excellent dinner, the regular Skokie club service, William S. Elliott, of Winnetka, presiding as chairman, briefly outlined the object of the meeting; stressed the im- portance of the independent voter; emphasized the urgent necessity of the north shore towns turning out united- ly in support of Mr. Penfield; compli- mented the high type of citizenship to be found throughout the four towns represented and expressed confidence in obtaining victory at the primary election if the voters only will go to the polls and vote. Urges 100 Percent Vote The first speaker introduced was Hoyt King, prominent among civic leaders of Wilmette and who has been an election official in his home village and Chicago for many years. Last month at a meeting of the Wilmette Forum, called for the purpose of en- couraging a 100 percent vote in the village at all elections, Mr. King delivered the principal address, his subject at that time being, "A Full Vote, a Prerequisite to Stiffening Of- ficial Back Bone." During that address and also in his talk at the Penfield dinner, Mr. King quoted statistics from the county and state primary in 1922, at which time, he said, there were cast in Cook county for both parties, 417,291 votes, or 27 percent of the total county vote. "Seventeen percent of the total county vote," he said, "were Repub- lican, and 9 percent of the total vote of Cook county elected our sheriff." Under these conditions Mr. King de- clared that "a combination of lead- ers, who can figure on delivering 9 percent of our voting strength, can name the ticket." Heavy Vote, Solution That a heavy vote will prevent this very condition and that the failure to vote cannot be justified were points strongly stressed by the speaker. "A 75 percent vote in Cook county," he said, "would be approximately 1,200,000. Give one-half of it to the Democratic primary and 600,000 for the Republican primary. This would be an increase of more than 100 per- cent above the 1922 vote. That alone would take the power away from the professional voters who know what they want in return, and will condemn to defeat those officials who do not do their bidding." Many Leaders Heard Col. John V. Clinnin, Otto R. Barnett, Merle B. Waltz, Col. Abel Davis, Mrs. Andrew McLeish and Sherman Booth, all of Glencoe; Mrs. William G. Hibbard, Mrs. William L. Benson, William B. Moulton, William D. McKenzie, A. B. Farwell, William J. Carey and Sanborn Hale, all of Winnetka and Robert Stoddard of Wilmette, were among the others who made brief talks on the general theme of leaving no stone unturned toward getting out the vote on April 13 and in every other honorable way further- ing the successful campaign of the guest of honor. Mr. Penfield, himself, also spoke briefly upon the subject of his cam- paign and with much feeling expressed his appreciation of the loyalty being shown at this time by his friends. At the suggestion of Mr. Booth the chairman was authorized to appoint a committee of two from each of the four villages, to formulate further plans for carrying forward the campaign. The chairman will appoint one man and one woman from each town, and the ap- pointees will enlarge the committee as they deem advisable. Pass Resolutions In a set of resolutions adopted, cit- izens of New Trier who have been closely in touch with Mr. Penfield and with his work as county commissioner for the past four years and prior to that time with his efficient and willing work as president of the village of Glencoe for six years and as president of the New Trier Citizens' league for two years, expressed their appreciation of this service, and asked for a further showing of this appreciation by ask- ing that a large vote turn out at the coming primary for William Busse for president of the county board and for county commissioner, and for Frederick W. Penfield for county commissioner and his associates on the Country Towns ticket, George A. Miller, Dudley D. Pierson and Lachlan W. MacLean. Consider Modern Books at Librarians' Meeting More than 50 librarians from the north shore and the western suburbs of Chicago attended the meeting of the north shore section of the Illinois Library association held at the Wil- mette Public library last Thursday. Miss Anne /I. Whitmack, librarian, was hostess to the group and reported a very successful meeting. k Harper, superintendent of schools, spoke in the morning and after a luncheon at the Central cafeteria, a discussion on "modern books and their relation to the library" was held. This was the first time that this group has ever met at the Wilmette library. These Boy Scouts Will Be Glad for Odd Jobs The various patrols of Troop No. 1, of the Kenilworth Boy Scouts, will engage in a contest during the month of March to raise money for a con- tigent fund for the troop. The con- test will be held under the direction of Scoutmaster Robert Townley and the methods which may be used to raise the money include giving en- tertainments, selling old papers, rags, or other material, doing odd jobs about the village and other similar plans open to boys. Plans for the campaign are already being laid by the various patrols and much interest is being shown in the work. E.
