"It is not mere coincidence that, the flying boat took that course. More than a" decade ago. Joy Morton, believing \hat^ waterways were -the solution of most merchants' and producers' shipping troubles, resurrected from the bottom of the Illinois and Mississippi rivers, a fleet of old boats, rebuilt them so they were entirely seaworthy and began the shipment of salt from Chicago to Mis- sissippi River points. It was the rirst time through freight lwd ever been carried from Chicago to Davenport. Iowa, via the Hennepin Canal. For three years this fleet was kept in opera- tion purely as an experimentâ€"long enough to prove that if the Waterways were improved and deepened slightly, merchandise could be carried quickly and with both profit for the shipper and economy for the people. "Now the Jiyujg boat has traversed the same waters, to remind people again, that if the railroads are to be prevented from charging excessive rates they must have competition in the form of nat- ural waterways and canals. "It was the first time in history, that a flying craft was utilized as an aid' in the plain every day business of selling a commodity. "lhe craft had the sanction of the various bodies wlio are working to se- cure a great natural waterway from tne Lakes to the Uuli, which will unite Aoitti and South on a business basis and handle niucii oi tne tonnage now Handled by railroads." 1LLINI LONE SCOUTS TO ORGANIZE IN WILMETTE The "lllini" Tribe Lone Scouts of America has been organized in Wil- mette, ajiid an active campaign is now on foot to recruit members.
