cago shall become dry May 1 in-
stead of July 1.
The wets see in the vote an is-
sue of more than local significance.
A negative vote, they contend, will
be tantamount to an emphatic pro-
test to congress against sumptu-
ary prohibition.
The dry answer is that congress
knows that six of the seven Illi-
nois votes against the eonstitu-
on Thursday morning, and it takes
time to prepare the advertisements
and legal notices. Be sure and get
your copy in by noon of Wednes-
day, otherwise advertisements will
not appear in that week's issue.

EXTRAVAGANCE
From the New York Evening Sun;
Grownups hardly appreciate how
deeply their talk of money sinks

| strenuous days of war and income
taxes one small girl of six was
told over and over again that she

Nothing she really wanted could

be shared with the two younger
| brothers of the family.
One morning she learned of the

ceived the news in thoughtful si-
lence. Then grandma came into
Ithe nursery saying. "Jane, would-
n't you like to see baby brother?"
An unattractive little pink crea-
