Eberhardt, Republican candidate for Judge of the Municipal Court of Chicago, new full six-year term, is so well and favorably known that it is very hard to attempt to write anything which would tend to laud him in the smallest degree. He was born in this great city, educated in its public schools, and, in time, graduated with high honors from the Lewis Institute and the Northwestern University. He is the highly honored son of the late Judge Max Eberhardt, who like his son was an honor to the legal profession, his father before him was among the first Judges of the Municipal Court of Chicago. He had always been extremely friendly to the colored people, and, as his son will be elevated to the Municipal Bench, the colored people will still have a friend at court. Mr. Eberhardt always conducts himself like a highly cultured gentleman, has been successfully engaged in the practice of law for fifteen years, and for three years he has served as an Assistant Attorney General of the State of Illinois. "He is an industrious lawyer of high ideals and temperamentally fitted for the position. We deem him qualified." —Chicago Bar Association Report, April, 1922.

SCHWARTZ, DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF REVIEW HON. ULYSSES S. SCHWARTZ, DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF REVIEW Myrtle Tanner Blacklidge, Republican candidate for County Commissioner, was born on a farm in southern Illinois, receiving her education in the Public Schools, after which she taught school for two years. For six years she was private secretary for her father at the Southern Illinois Penitentiary and for seven years she was the chief buyer for a large department store. Five and a half years ago Hon. Joseph F. Haas, the best County Re- Hon. Michael Rosenberg, Democratic candidate for Trustee of the Sanitary District of Chicago, was born right here in dear old Chicago 36 years ago, receiving his education in its public schools later on rounding it out or finishing it up in a first-class business college, in starting in life for himself he began right down at the bottom of the ladder and gradually worked his way on up to the top. Looking around for something to do in his early manhood days he succeeded in finding a position with the Foreman Bros. Banking Co. as paying teller, holding that position down for a few years, with the help of some of his warm friends he was able to engage in business for himself and after much hard work on his part and close attention to business today he is successfully engaged in several lines of profitable business. He is the president of the International Lamp Manufacturing Corporation, which employs more than three hundred and seventy-five colored men and women; when Mr. Rosenberg first started in to employ colored men and women the Hon. Ulysses S. Schwartz, Democratic candidate for Member of the Board of Review of Cook County, Illinois, was born in the City of Milwaukee, State of Wisconsin, and is of immigrant parents. He was educated in the public schools of Norway, Mich., graduated from the John Marshall Law School, Chicago, and was admitted to the practice of law in 1910, he was appointed Assistant Prosecutor of the city by Mayor Carter H. Harrison in 1911, and served 4 years. He afterwards attracted special attention by his vigorous prosecution of the Chicago Street Railway Company, compelling them to furnish better heating and ventilation of cars, and he collected many thousands of dollars in fines as a result of his efforts. This was the first case of its character ever instituted in Chicago. He was elected to the City Council in 1916, from the 3rd ward, and the following year appointed to the finance committee and has served continually since that time, and is now a member of the firm of Kelly, Fried- HON.

It should seem reasonable to every colored person who is deeply interested in the welfare of his race that Mr. Rosenberg is justly entitled to receive some of the very few of the colored people on Tuesday, November 7, in man, Schwartz and Doyle, lawyers, and is a member of the following committees of the City Council: Finance; He was elected to the City Council Local Transportation; Railroads; Industries Compensation. He abolished the absurd system by which the Council since his election. He experts were overpaid millions of dollars in fees for their services. In 1919 he was made chairman of the Local Transportation Committee and has served in that capacity since his election. He formulated the well-known "Schwartz Traction Plan," for the solution of Chicago's difficult traction problems; a plan that will lower fares without reducing wages; enables the building of subways, elevated and street railway extensions. In 1922 he instituted the suits against the Adams, Beatty, Francois Company compelling the return of over $200,000 paid to them for work which was never performed. In the recent street car strike he organized the Citizens' Committee, which by bringing public pressure to bear, procured the sudden termination of Chicago's transportation tie-up. In this regard, his efforts in behalf of all concerned and, especially the public, brought about the enthusiastic commendation of the public, commer- 3. Judge Howard Hayes, Rep...1,117 4.

Mr. Schwartz starts today as a candidate for the Board of Review, on an endorsed public record of fearlessness, intelligence, efficiency and economy. He is at the present time chairman of the Local Transportation Committee, chairman of the Committee on Committees, and chairman of the SubCommittee of the Finance Committee on expert fees.

Alderman Schwartz, because of his record as a public servant of the City of Chicago, because of his long experience in public affairs, because of the thought and study he has given taxation problems, and because of the proficiency he has displayed in the discharge of every duty, and because of the special efforts made by him to favor the colored, as well as the white people, is justified in asking every thinking citizen for his or her undivided support in his candidacy for the office of Member of the Board of Review.

No part of the Negro race in America is quite stag- hant.

For [the ‘most part the advertising repre- ‘sents local business, generaily busi ‘ness carried on by Nogrocs. To the white. reader sdvertigements of coé- netics appear rather prominent. The casual reader of the Negro paper is by the large proportion of ‘opinion as over against news, but this is due largely to the tone of the news- writing. Zhe editorials as such’ take ‘an average of four percent of the ‘space. About one-seventh of all goes into out-of-town news. Events of general interest having nothing to do with race’ matters scarcely appear. As for special pages dealing with sports ‘or the theatre, these belong only to the newspapers in larger cities. Such ‘are the results of an analysis of forty typical periodicals.” There are 24 periodicals whose ‘names have been preserved as repre- sentative of the journalism engaged in by Negroes before the Civil War. Many ‘had “a brief existence. The Freedman’s Journal, started in 1827 ‘by Samuel Cornish and John B. Ruse- worm lasted for some time. .

He is highly deserving of re-election, for it will mean lower rents and lower taxes. Both men and women can vote for him on Tuesday, November 7. F Hon. John F. Devine, Republican candidate for re-election for Clerk of the Probate Court of Cook county has already saved the taxpayers $139,865.00. which is the most unique record ever made in this county by any public official during the first three years of his present term as Clerk of the Probate Court, he made a profit of $139,865.00 for the taxpayers of this county over and above all expenses. The operation of the usual public office in Cook County generally means a heavy charge upon the taxpayers. In these days of increasing taxes, the voters can appreciate a public official who makes a large profit over and above the expenses of his office. The profit so made helps to make up in part the deficit in other offices and thereby decreases in part the tax burden and ultimately the rent burden of every voter in Cook County. This profit was made by Mr. Devine by doing the largest amount of work ever done in the office with the smallest proportionate amount of help. He effected economies without decreasing efficiency. He increased efficiency without increase of cost. His every move was one of a real business man in charge of a business office. On the other hand he did not forget that his office is one in which widows and orphans are most vitally interested. He devised new safeguards to protect them against dishonesty or looting of estates. His heart is as big as his brain. A vote on November 7, for him whose name appears on the ballot as the Republican candidate for the Clerk of the Probate Court, means an assurance and appreciation of efficiency and economy in public office. He solicits your support on his past record. Originality. Where lies the difficulty of creating that taste by which a truly original poet is to be relished? Is it in breaking the bonds of custom, in overcoming the prejudices of false refinement, and displacing the aversions of inexperienced-Wordsworth. All women are concerned regarding the length of skirts. The midges of the women of America are no less vague on this subject than those of their Parisian sisters. In France, there is just as much uncertainty as to which length will prevail. While many extremely long skirts are worn, there are indications that before another spring has passed fairly short skirts will appear again; not so short, however, as the blissar models of last year, but shorter than some of the swathing models worn now. The present vogue of the long skirt may be laid to a revolt against the fapparism which fairly swept the country last fall. It was a decidedly unpopular fashion as far as the more mature woman was concerned. It is curious, but in no country save this is so great a premium put upon youth. On the continent the older woman is always the cynosure and when fappar styles became dominant there they were quickly revolted against and finally changed. Not that they were unattractive, but because they were worn too well by the sub-deb. DECORATES THE WHITE SCARF Bright Embroidery is Employed With Miraculous Effect—Hat to Complete the Outfit. All of the Czechoslovakian embroideries and those from Russia and all of the colorful countries are being applied to white scarfs with a most miraculous effect. The scarfs themselves are made of the loosest of handwoven homespun done in either thin woolen or thick silken threads. Then on their ends for a space of about ten inches there is arranged a solid mass of embroidery taken from the peasant art of one of these countries. The embroideries are about as inspiring as anything you can think of. They fairly scream a joyfulness of life, and when they are imposed on the pure whiteness of the homespun background they are particularly attractive for the purposes of the modern girl and her activities in sports. Sometimes there are hats embroidered to go with these scarfs that fling about the throat and again they are worn by themselves, but when they are added to a pure white costume, either with or without a hat, they add enough distinction to make that suit look as though it were chosen to go among those preferred by the gods. For Evening Gowns Broached materials of all kinds are to make evening affairs gorgeous this winter. Satins and velvets are being shown today in richer brocades than ever before and in more daring combinations of colors. One piece of satin, for example, is in deep apricot brocaded with vivid green. But of all the new materials, brocaded crepe is the loveliest and most pliable. **Applique is Solution.** Applique is a universal solution when it comes to fitting up children, from their play-rooms to their play compers. It can be used for curtains, mats, bibs and aprons, counter-ones, hoods, and even the eyes of air take-to-bed bunnies. LATE DRESSES ARE LONGER Tightly Draped Models Are Worn on the Street by Well Dressed Women. The warm weather has brought numerous interesting costumes. The most striking feature of the new dresses is their increased length, which is becoming more the vogue delly. The semi-long skirt appears to be less favored and is certainly less graceful than the one coming to the break of the ankle. It has been noticed that tightly draped models are worn on the street by well dressed women.
