May 26, 1928 ivi WINNETKA TALK RABIES EPIDEMIC TO BE MEETING SUBJECT Citizens Invited to Discussion at Meeting of Indian Hill Association The latest outbreak of rabies among Winnetka canines, in which eleven persons have been bitten since May 1, has resulted in another proclamation by President Henry F. Tenney that all dogs of the village either be se- curely muzzled or kept off the streets. The Police department will attend to all cases where owners of dogs fail to heed the warning in this, one of the most serious conditions of its kind that has threatened the very lives of Win- netka citizens, and particularly chil- dren. With about 900 licensed dogs in Winnetka and a disposition on the part of many owners to ignore past official warnings, it is said the pres- ent movement will be more drastic in its nature, providing the co-operation upon the part of the people who own dogs is not forthcoming. Child to Lose Eye Of the children who were bitten this week, one, it is said, will lose the sight of an eye, as the result of the brutal attack by the mad canine. Citizens of the village, particularly those who do not own dogs, are thoroughly aroused, and among the first steps to be taken, other than that which the village has already done in the matter of President Tenney's proc- lamation and his letter to dog owners, will be a discussion of this question at the meeting of the Indian Hill Im- provement Association next Monday evening. Call Citizens Meeting President William S. Nordberg, in his call for this session, has made as one of its special objects that of dis- cussing the matter of muzzling dogs, and it is desired there be a large at- tendance of association members. It is the plan of the association to then go before the Village council with its endorsement and support of the ac- tion taken. Woodpecker Replaces Old Alarm Clock at Frat House Alarm clocks have gone into the dis- card at the Acacia fraternity house at Northwestern university. Members are aroused each day for their early morning classes by the rata-tap-tap of a friendly red-headed woodpecker. Regularly at 7 A. M., according to the Acacians, the woodpecker with lusty pecks on the tin ornaments over the fraternity dormitory summons the slumbering men in time to sip a cup of coffee, munch a roll, and get to the campus for their 8 o'clock classes. Only once this spring since their feathered alarm clock started his un- usual service, has he failed to make good. That day, every one having an early class overslept. Opinion is divid- ed among the fraternity men, states Elgin Narrin, Acacia president and prominent campus leader, as to wheth- er their morning caller had run into an unusually rich supply of luscious worms or bugs, had a sliver in his throat, or whether, lured by springtime fancies, he was detained at a tryst among the campus oak leaves. Only one advantage is found in the old mechanical alarm clocks over "Rudy," as the woodpecker has been officially dubbed. "Rudy" doesn't know the difference between week- days and Sunday. On Sunday morn- ings, when lazy fraternity men like to sleep late, "Rudy" is most persistent with his fruitless search for worm holes in the tin roof. OPEN WATER PLANT Clencoe's Own Municipal Water Sup- ply Station in Operation; Needs Many Finishing Touches Residents of Glencoe are now being supplied with water from the new plant, and the long-cherished dream of the village has come true. The new plant was put in operation last Friday night, and, on Sunday morning, valves connecting the mains from Winnetka to Glencoe, through which the former village has been supplying the latter with water, were closed. The new plant has been running smoothly, and it is hoped there will be no occasion for a shut-down. There is still a great deal of work to be done about the plant, in the mat- ter of finishing touches, here and there, but nothing, it is said, which should interfere with the service. The brief period during which the plant has been in operation further evidences the urgent need of the pro- posed water tower, it is said, in order to insure a pressure without any sharp drops and increases, and by which the plant also may be more economically operated. The added service, Village Manager Young points out, comes at a most opportune time. This has been a very dry season and an unusually heavy de- mand for water for lawns and gardens has resulted, and the village is now in a position to meet it.
