I ah me 12 [SS] WINNETKA TALK October 29, 1927 Lammert Oil Burners The largest selection of burners ever offered by any manufacturer. Made in different sizes, models and combinations, which enables us to fit the proper burner to any heating plant, irrespective of size, from small homes to the largest industrial buildings. The principal of combustion is the same throughout, and shows the same efficiency, economy and stability in the home as in the larger buildings. Lammert Burners are reasonable in price, full automatic and burn heavier oils than other burners. Built by a firm established since 1892 and financially able to stand back of their products.

In his talk on health, with particu . > Fr mn W hite Plague Ww ai | lar reference to the work of the Chi- Gang wars and consignment of li- brary treasures to the flames to the contrary notwithstanding, Chicago boasts a single achievement® which Prof. William L. Bailey ranks her as foremost among the cities of the world in its contribution to human advancement and gives her a place of permanent acclaim in his- tory, in the opinion of Prof. William I. Bailey, head of the sociology de- partment at Northwestern university. That achievement has been the reduc- tion through sanitation and other kindred agencies of Chicago's mortal- ity rate to the point where it is by far the lowest of any large city in the cago Tuberculosis institute, Professor Bailey issued a challenge to the Ro- tarians to join with other civic forces in seeking out and eliminating the "social causes of tuberculosis." Physicians have waged a successful battle against tuberculosis, he said. They are perfectly able to cope with the disease but it now remains for the "social engineer" to ferret out and at tack the underlying causes of the dreaded white plague, which have to {| do with purely social conditions in the community. Health ranks high among the vital factors in establishing a lofty standard of community life, he de clared. Professor Bailey praised the effec- tive and far-reaching work of the Chi- cago Tuberculosis institute and urged the Rotarians to assume an active in- terest in #8 health, social service and educational enterprises.
