FIFTY-SECOND YEAR CHATSWORTH, ILLINOIS, THURSDAY. JUNE 11. 1925 The state utilities commission hold s hearing at ■drhury Friday rela- tive to the T. P I W. railroad cancel- ing some of ita paaeenger trains. Officials of the railroad presented their case wUh figures showing that passenger trains were being operated at a loes and especially Trains No. g, 1, S and 5. The tin t two trains men- tioned are the east bound morning train and No. 1 is the evening went bound train.' Nos. I and 5 are trains between Chenoa and Peoria. They asked permission to cancel these trains. , ^ Quite a number of the towns along the railroad had representatives pre- sent to protest against the removal of the trains. Peoria was represent- ed by. the secretary of the chamber of commerce. Peoria from a busi- ness standpoint does not want any trains taken off, but Mr. Eddy, the secretary of the chamber of com- merce first asked that if it was abso- lutely necessary to remove some of the trains that the schedule be re-( arranged so that a passenger train from the east reach Peoria some time during the'early forenoon and return east at night. Later when Stephen Herr, president of the Chats- worth chamber of commerce, made a telling talk and pointed out that an east bound train in the morning and a west bound train at night would be more satisfactory to the majority of the towns along the line, Mr. Eddy asked to be heard again and approved Mr. Herr’s suggestion. Postmaster Swltser, of Piper City, ex- 'plained to the commission how the abandoning of the morning east bound train would handicap the mail service at Piper City and especially on the rural routes as the carriers would be unable to leave the postof- flce much before 1 p. m. as the bulk of the mall would have to come on the noon west bound train. Others from Piper City spoke along the same lines.

Pri- mary 7 to 9 years, and juniors 10 to 12 years. The first period each morning is spent in singing national songs in giving pledges to the flag and like activities, after which the groups separate for their worship, work and play periods. Memory work in hymns and scripture, handiwork, and dramatisation play an outstanding part In the curriculum of the school. The aim of the movement is to give the children definite training in the principles of Christian citlsenship, and to tbiB end tome of the time un- used by the public schools is utilized. The scholars show increasing inter- est in the work of the school and are gaining worthwhile lessons for life.

Shortly after moving to G^manvllle township she was con- verted and joined the Evangelical church under the ministry of Rev. W. Neitz. She was a faithful mem- ber of the church for 55 years. She loved to go to church service* and attended regularly before the last years of III health, and even then un- der great dlfficuties she occasionally found her way to the House of God. When not able to attend she wanted her chair so arranged that she could look out of the front window and watch the people come to church. The great desire of her life was to do the right. During the past few years of ill health she often had to endure great suffering and at various times she ex- pressed a desire to be relieved and taken to her heavenly home.

"At present," Bays A. D. Lynch, the I. A. A. director, “Ilinois dairy- men who wish to replace reactor cat- tle with clean, quality stock, must go to other states to replenish their herds. Yet the time may not be far off when farmers will come to our own state for good dairy stock. "At the present rate of T. B. era- dication work in Illinois, indications are that within the next five years, this state will be the cleanest among dairy states. This will mean that Jairy cattle from Illinois counties will command a premium over cattle in other states. For this reason it Is time for Illinois dairymen to begin to think of their herds as sources of stock In years to come.” Lineman Falls 22 Feel and is Slightly Injured If present plans mature the first weekly concert of the season will I k given in CbatgwortR Wednesday June 24th and each Wednesday even- ing thereafter during Ahe summer months by the high sdkool band.

P H IL L IS RAIN E seized th e m orning putters, folded back to th e page

of th ea trical criticism . She h ad de­term ined that h e r Ju lie t should be tlie pinnacle of her achievem ent, a s it had been, according to the review s. All but one. And lliu t.. un fo rtu n ate ly , w as the one review ab o u t w hich Phillis R alne cared. F o r years, how m any years site hardly d a red to th ink , she lisd Bet herself to w inning p ra ise from Jacq u es Jackson’s acidulous jten. Wliey she didn’t w in it she knew in her h eart she had failed.

So now one line from th is m an was enough to m ake tier lie back am ong the costly lace o f he r pillow s with g rief s ta rin g out of h e r fine, d a rk eyes Hnd te r ro r c rystalliz ing in her mind. T he one line had w iped out th e effect of th e flowers w ith which th e room was heaped, the p ile of congratu la to ry telegram s accum ulating on th e Bilver tray in th e corner, th e m essages com­ing in over the telephone. W ith his scalpel-like m ind Jucques Jack so n had bared th e one unconquerab le d efec t in her |ierform ance, tlie one fe a r h ith e rto she had not dared to face even In the secret places o f h e r heart.

‘T’hlllis B aine 's iierform ance of J u ­liet lust night,” w ro te tlie c ritic , "w as a w istfu l echo. Ju lie t C apulet Is the flame of youth Incarna te , pfoserved like a gorgeous, golden fly In th e am ­ber o f th e piwt’s words. Miss Itu ine’e Ju lie t is beautifu l, bu t not young, it rem inds one reg re tfu lly of the charm th a t wus I’hlllls R uble's. ”

H er enemy had conquered a t la s t, the arch enemy of all w om ankind! She wus old, too old fo r Ju lie t, th e test for rom antic youth . She m ight de­ceive less observan t critics, bu t she could not deceive Jacq u es Ja c k so n ; and th a t m eant she couldn 't continue to deceive anyone very m uch longer.

T h e world of tlie th ea ter, an d ol the th ea te r goers, w as astounded when Phillis Baltic announced th a t she w at leaving the stage. T o the few friends she perm itted h e rse lf she m ade no ex p lan atio n s; w h a t she said to her alm ost fran tic m anager w as n ev er re­vealed. 'Hie engagem ent wus con eluded and in th re e days Phy llis Koine sailed for Purls alone.

Rum ors had a lw ay s gone about Broadway concerning the p riv a te life of P h illis ita ine, tlie life from which she so rigorously excluded every form of publicity. H earsay hud it th a t in the sp r in g tid e o f he r life sh e had m arried and th a t she laid no t beeD happy. Professional gossips sa id nls< th a t tiiere had been a d a u g h te r ol th a t m arriage, a frag ile child brought up by an a ris to c ra tic o rder o f num in F rance, fa r from the g l i t te r ol B ro ad w ay .

It w as t aerl tab la that caw tbe R1j l to chatterboxes should op ine thatth is child was ill o r dying, th a t I’liillU Bailie had rushed to h e r side, throw ing aside tier c areer like an old gow n U speed tlie haste of her dep artu re .

T hen cattie a rub le ab ru p tly an iioinuiiig that P h illis Itaine hnd died and been hurled in som e unpronoune aide little town in so u thern France Her world m ourned he r sincerely . A year passed.

And so, over a y ear later. P liillh Itaine herself lay again am ong the costly lace of h e r pillows, aw aitin g the papers and th e review s of he r re juvennted perform ance of Ju lie t.

I le r death in obscure F ran ce liau been a clever, and costly hoax. She had never laid a daughter, but she had tak en advantage of tlie estab lished rum or.

WHAT’S THE HURRY 7 One might think that dodging au­

tomobiles has become a major out­door sport for pedestrians. Last year 1268 persons in Illinois lost their lives while playing this hazard­ous game and nobody knows how many non-fatal Injuries occurred.

It has been suggested that an in­vestigating commission be appointed to determine the cause for all the rush on the streets and highways.Only 16 or 20 years ago, It is point­ed out, people thought a span of hors­es and a rubber tired buggy a satis­factory means for travel but now the Impatient driver thinks he must beat the train that may require all of a _ ,minute to paaa—to the crossing while S u n d a y he regards the vicious honk of his horn as a sufficient warning to the kiddles that he Is on his way. The findings of such a commission would be interesting.

That is the famous old saying. It sounds com­monplace and trite. But~lT IS TRUE.

Success creates momentum that carries every­thing before it. It therefore CREATES MORE SUCCESS. e

Saving follows the same principle. Save and you succeed. Save more and you succeed more. Saving gives you the POWER to win. Begin saving TODAY. You will be surprised to find how far you can climb on the ROAD TO SUCCESS.

Something to Think A bout

By F. X. WALKER

THE LOVE OF SOLITUDE

T H E tru ly grunt. th e larire-souled men am i w o m e n who <t*-llyrlit In

going atlclil in tin- m ystic realm of thought, you will llml a re a rd en t lov­e rs of solitude.

They lire n ev er lonely w herever they may he, fo r they have found the way hi liap idoess by gel linn lirqtm lnt- •d with them selves, whose com panion­ship they p re fe r to any other.

W ashington chose so litude when he p rayed for s tren g th and guidance In th e fo re s ts ; L incoln knew noth ing of loneliness when lie lay upon th e floor o f his log CHbln before the glow of a h e a rth fire, s tu dy ing by Its fa in t light an d pondering th e subject m a tte r of his lessons; th e late John W anam ak- e r solved his m ost difficult business problem s In privacy.

T he men and women of exclusion B lum lnate th e world by dazzling ach ievem ents, born to them In th e ir quiet hours o f Isolation. T h e ir works flare up lik e m agic to rches to light the p a th s o f th e fa lte rin g and dis­heartened.

The greatest writers do their best work in solitude, often In the night­time, when voices are hushed and si­lence Is supreme.

And so do painters and presidents, kings and captains, students and In­ventors.

There Is nothing more Inspiring to thinking minds than quietude; noth­ing so grandly sublime and Impres­sive as a canopy of stars in a still night when one Is far away from the noisy haunts of men with one’s stvn thoughts.

Only In solitude can man find him­self. It was In solitude on the sea­shore that Demosthenes found him­self, whence he came and stirred the people of bis time with snch oratory ns had never been heard.

Baal nobility of the soul dwells only la the men and women who care noth- lng for social gatherings and frivol- Hiss. Such men and women prefer te be alone with their nhisea, where they And their greatest pleasure In study, meditation and exploration, from which the human family ultimately derive benefit.

The best in science. In art and la literature comes from the p*ple who ( f o n t seclusion fn praforsnee to the glamour of bright lights'and ths folly #f marry making among turbulest cnrivfla, barely able to find their way

Cook county representation. Cook county now denies the state taxation. The boar! of Cook county commis­sioners at Chicago, by unanimous vote directed County Treasurer Patrick J. Carr to wlthho]d from the state treas­urer the state’s portion of all tax moneys collected In the county. Hav­ing violated their constitutional oatha In refusing to redlstriet the state, thus depriving Cook county of Its rightful representation In Springfield. Ihe leg­islators apparently have become mem­bers of an Illegally constituted body. Such was the theory expressed In the county board's resolution. It was pre­sented by Commissioner Mrs. E. M. Bends.. In It the board declared It to be their duty to examine Into the leg­islature's legality. Mr. Carr, served with notice of the reflation, an­nounced he would abide by It. He de­clared be would hold up, subject to the resolution, a total due the state treasurer of $4,610,000 In this year’s taxes. The sum Is now on hand.
