They were very suc- cessful in finding children who will have ah excellent ch8Ja«je of carrying off the honors. Durfng the week theBe investigators will visit Wllmette, Kert- ilworth, Wlnnetka.

Reports are printed from the differ- ent districts and also from the chair- men of the departments of work. A glance over the names of the dif- ferent departments shows the many and useful fields covered by this won- derful organization. On Wednesday, Oct. 15, the Tenth district held their annual meeting at Glencoe and it was their privilege at that time to hear an address by Mrs. Purvin, chairman of the state civics department; Mrs. Blocki, of the con- servation department, and Mrs. Buck- ingham, president of-the Public Schoo Art society. The work being directed and accomplished - by these; women along their various lines is one of great benefit to the public and every woman who had the privilege of hear- ing them felt proud to add her mite to this splendid work. The civics department at first had to do some educational work with the public to aroase an interest and let it be known what they hope to do to quote from Mrs. McCall, "educate the women to a sense of civic importance remembering that information must precede reformation." The civics.de- partment is now working for the open schoolhouse, not only as a place of education for the young but as a place of relaxation, recreation, infor matlon. and education for young and old, rich and poor, men, women and children. The place where all can meet on an eanal footing to work tor Se common good.

Each club in the , federation is en- titled to two delegates at the con- vention. These delegates are repre tentative women, who are proud to be selected for this .service, and who are chosen because of their interest and helpfulness in these subjects of public welfare. This is the type of woman that the Evanston hostesses are asked to open their houses to an;l provide for their care during the four days of the convention. " Many of these delegates will make personal â- sacrifices to leave their homes for this length of time. Let us show them that it is,appreciated. Choose Their Colors. The Tenth district have chosen as their colors golden brown and yel- low and these are the colors which will be used In the decorations.

HUMANESOCiETY AGENT ACTIVE IN EVANSTON Michael McDonough, agent for the Illinois Humane society, was in Ev- anston Thursday investigating two or three cases which had been reported to the police department concerning alleged cruel treatment of horses. No warrants were sworn out for the ar- rest of the owners of the animals, all of whom promUed that no further violation of the humane law would occur in their stables. . â- Several complaints have been made to the police recently about the treat- ment ot,truck horses by teamsters. It is said that these drivers have been seen by several women, wno have Se tbe complaints, beating and abusing the animals they drive.. Offi- cer McDonough called upon two trans- THIEVES ROB RESIDENCE; THENEXCHANCECLOTHES Home of H. L. Woods, on Hin- man Avenue, Entered and Ransacked by Burglars. After procuring a quantity of sil- ver and other valuables, thieves who ransacked the home of H. L. Woods, 050 Hlnraan avenue, Evanston. helped themselves to two suits of clothing owned by Mr. Woods and left two old ragged suits which they wore. The members of the Woods family are away from home and the amount of goods stolen could not be determined by Officers JohnBOn and McArdle when they made an investi- gation. _ The robbery was discovered by August Weldman, Janitor in the Westminster apartments, next door to the Woods home. He had been employed to care for the place and when he entered tho basement he found that one of the wlndoWB had been broken. He notified the^poltce and an Investigation revealed that the house had been ransacked from basement to garret. Tbe thieves worked fast, evidently, for sums of money in two places In the home were overlooked- Two neighbors and Mrs. Weldman, wife ot the Janitor, saw two suspic- ious-looking characters walking about the Woods home late in the after- noon, but did not think anything about it until they were told of the robbery next morning. - The contents of dressers and other pieces of furniture having compart- ments for storing articles, were thrown carelessly about the floor by the thieves. The closets in which both men's and women's apparel was kept, were entered and clothing strewn about the floor. It Is thought that several pieces of clothing in ad- dition to what the tblevea wore away, were taken. TEAMSTERS AREBLAMED FOR CARELESS DRIVING Pedestrians and Automobile Owners Complain and Ar- rests May Follow. By Mary B. Lindsay. It was supposed that the amend ment to the Juul law, approved May 20, 1913, would affect the library tax, and for three years, at least, would restore the usual library income. • The opinion is now given by com petent authorities that this amend- ment does not affect the library tax, and consequently'the library board is again compelled to discontinue all purchase of books except those suit- able for the renting collection, the special emergency fund of $837 belug held for necessary running expenses. "Hamlet with Hamlet left out" is no more serious a situation that a library without a book fund, and hence the librarian is constrained to make this appeal for help. Will not eacn reader who possibly can, check off one book from the fol- lowing list, then call up the library and tell us which book or books you will give us, or will be responsible for, and the library will buy'them at usual library discount ot from 10 to 20 per.cent:'.v,(;:-Uv^':'i.^,C'| .'.'â- â- .â- â- Ci^Â¥.i Barnesâ€""The New America" (Home Missionary text books); needed in reference department. $0 cents.
