WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 19, 1921 "Debate to Feature . Men's Club Session Legislative Apportionment for Coun- ties Under Discussion at Meeting Tuesday, March 22 Promise of something unusual in a Men's club program is found in: the announcement of the next meeting and dinner of the Winnetka Men's club, set for Tuesday evening, March 22, at Community House. The speakers who will discuss, pro and con, are Morton D. Hull and E. J. Davis and the question, "Resolved: That the plan of legislative apport- jonment approved by the majority vote of the Constitutional Convention is more preferable than the plan of apportionment on the basis of popu- tation regardless of community boundaries." 3 i Mr. Morton D. Hull will affirm that it is a violation of the principle of representative government. Mr. Davis will deny this and will claim that representation in legislative assemblies should be on the basis of ommunities in conjunction with population, and that most states rec- ognize the community as the basis. Preceding the debate there will be the regular mixer at 6:30 o'clock and dinner at 7 o'clock. Dinner reserv- ations should be sent in as early as possible to Charles F. Simpson, 506 Birch street, Winnetka, phone Win- netka 1563.

These conditions are caused by cylinders which have be- come worn, out-of-round and taper. 'To overcome these troubles, the cylinders must be re-ground. It is an absolute waste of time and money to continue grinding valves, burn- J ing carbon, etc. When a motor develops the above-named symptoms call the Hubbard Woods Garage Tel.
