The Stephens Sedan is absolutely weathier-proof when the windows are closed and neither water or draft can enter. The roof is provided with drains, so that water is carried to the rear, thus protecting both the windshield and doors from unpleasant dripping. The windows lower into the body sides, where they are quickly accessible, and when lowered the car is as open and airy as a touring car. Doors are equipped with mechanical lifters which open and close the windows to any desired position.

Wilmette Takes Last Ball Game of Season Wilmette and Glencoe ball teams staged the season's windup attraction on the Wilmette diamond Sunday. It was an easy victory for Wilmette, the final score reading 12 to 5. Glencoe lost through inability to bunch hits when they meant runs. Wilmette ran the paths with abandon scoring a dozen runs on 8 hits and a compila- tion of errors totaling 8. The game might have been a pitch- ers' duel and the score less one-sided had the hurlers on either side re- ceived the support they most assur- edly deserved. Borre, for Wilmette, allowed only 7 hits and struck out two men. Hessler, Glencoe hurler, was nicked for 8 blows and register- ed 7 strike outs, having the edge on the hurlers' battle. Rudolph, for Glencoe, and Schae- fer, Rosberg and Schwall, for Wil- mette, did the heavy stick work each annexing a two-bagger. Golbach, Wilmette keystone man, poled a pair of timely singles. OUILMETTE A. C. WILL PRESENT STRONG LINE-UP Wilmette's football team is fast rounding -into shape and is expected to present the strongest line-up the team has ever boasted. When the gong rings on September 28 the local people may glimpse one of the fast- est elevens that ever graced the grid- iron at Third street and Linden ave- nue. Ketchum, a boy who fought in the big war, is acting manager and wish- es to announce, that only the strong- est teams will be pitted against his fichting lads. Either Welles Park or Fairmount A. C. will be the first op- ponent. IN WESTMORELAND PLAY John TI. Ling of Skokie, and George W. Springer of Westmoreland, both Wilmette residents, were the winners in the Chicago District Golf associa- tion play at the Westmoreland Country club Sunday.' Ling, in the directors' class, led the field of 120 players with a total of 167. He had round of 83 and 84. Springer, president at Westmore- land, despite the cares as host in chief, topped the presidents' class with low gross of 185, | ane ------ es P ) | Did Not Answer Question | Advertiser-- "What is the circul - | tion of your per?"

Language and Thought Language is properly the servant of thought, but not unfrequently be- comes its matter. The conceptions of a feeble writer are greatly modified by his style; a man of vigorous pow- ers makes his style bend to his con- ceptions--a fact compatible enough with the acknowledgement of Dryden that a rhyme had often helped him to an idea.--Clulow.

Items of Interest The largest check ever written for the promotion of public health was written on January 16, 1919, and made payable to the National Tuber- culosis association by the American Red Cross, to be expended in the United States in the prevention of tuberculosis. There are now 47 public health nurses working in the outer belt territory of Cook county. They meet every Saturday morning at 9 o'clock in Room 922, County building. All persons interested in the promotion of public health nursing are invited to these meetings. On Monday, September 15, the public health nurses of Cook county in the smaller towns and rural sec- tions began the supervision of all schools, public and parochial, and this is done, of course, only upon re- quest of the school authorities. Questions and Answers The editor of one of our leading Cook county newspapers asks this question: "How can the people at large in the towns and villages help in the promotion of public health?" The editor of this column answers: By asking another question. How can every human being, man, woman and child, help in the promotion of pub- lic health. These are some of the ways: 1. By personal hygiene. Daily at- tention to bathing. Attention to teeth and mouth. Taking proper exercise and wholesome food. Standing and sitting in a proper position. Sleep- ing eight hours in a well ventilated headroom. 2. By recognition of state laws. Being sure that if we have con- tagious disease, that the placarding and quarantine is kept. Reporting to local authorities abuse of this law. Remembering that the golden rule applies more in public health measur- es than in any other one thing. 3. Refusing to employ any sort of quack practitioners, and the use of quack cures. When ill, or ailing, ask advice of a reputable physician. How much does a case of Tuber- culosis cost a family by the death of the bread-winner? » To the family: 1 Loss of wages to date of death. Didn't Quite Understand Tittle John and his mother were visiting at the minister's home one day, when John picked up a Testa- ment from the table. The minister's wife said: "You must not play with that book, for it is God's book." A week later, while at the minister's home again, he spied the book and said: "Why doesn't God come and get his book?" ! Harry Mitchell !
