Reclamation of the foreshore on Lake Michigan fn the Chicago district would provide Nearly 100 square miles of land for wharves, warehouses and port facilities, accord ing to a report submitted to city offi cials 'by Col. W. V. Judson. district war department engineer. , - . Te report calls attention to. th fact that ocean liners may dock at' Chicago wliarves within the next 15 years If the Great Lakes-St. Lwrence river chan nel project is carried out. Such an out let to the Atlantic would connect Chi cago with. the seA routes of thejworld. The coal, miners of southern Illinois and the'" cotton belt'pf the south will feel the- touch of Chleaero endeavor, through ah eight-foot barge 'channel to the Mississippi. "Never be f6re laid-it seernas, fair to point out in projiliecy a, region where Jthere;must Inevitably and soon be established the world's greatest port facilities," the re , port says. . The foreshore of Lake Michigan fronting Chicago slopes, very gently lakeward," the report continues;, "so that , the seven-fathom contour ts four miles oft shore.' This means that in our submerged lands, all publicly own ed, the Chicago district possesses 'near ly a hundred square miles any part of which is within the ppwer of-' man to raise into land. , This is an asset of al most incalculable 'alue.. IVeriewlng the section's of Chicago's lake, front, Colonel Judson points out that Lakes Wolf and George lie, close to Lake Michigan on the Illinois-Indiana- line with" sis square miles of marshy land . adjacent, v This section "offers the greatest opportunity in all this Region for the creation of wharf facilities of a character, magnitude and location suited to the demands of the future," tle report says.'

On reaching her he found her baby brother was on cars and was in the act of crawling down near, couplng between two flats.

At a number of places organization is being ilisfiissed and may be perfected during February. Washington and Greenville," which were in the successful six-town' league with Scotland Neck. Wi.lliamston, Pinetops and Tarboro last year, are understood to be agreeable to joining with Wilmington, Kinston and New Bern and one or three other large towns for a bigger association- this summer. There, are. no better sporting towns in the section 'than the Tar river towns. . The proposed league can be operated on an economical basis whether com prised by six or eight cities. Tarboro usually will take a chance with any sort of organization for baseball, . and would be the most distant point from Wilmington in the event it should be included in the association. Kinston, New Kern, Washington and Greenville are admirably grouped. Goldsbpro and rayetteville are ideally located.

B. Cran mer, was laid to rest. The service in the church conducted by the Rev. Mr. Lewis was tender and beautiful. The white casket, rested amid a profusion of exquisite flowers. The hymns, "Great Shepherd of the Sheep" and "There's a Home for Little Children," sung by the sweet clear voices of her little girl iriends, touched every heart. -' As the casket was borne to its flower-strewn resting place, the chil dren followed, carrying the flowers in their arms. At the close of the service, they covered the mound with fragrant blossoms. Their purity and fragrance were significant of the character of May Webb Cranmer.
