Joliet Plans Deep Waterway and State Bonding
A Joliet driven plan argues for a twenty four foot deep waterway from Lockport to the Mississippi with state bonds paid by water power revenue. It claims $1,000,000 yearly state revenue and proposes state control of Des Plaines and Illinois river power, avoiding tax impact on residents. The plan urges Illinois to build the canal and own the power rather than Chicago’s sanitary district.

Plan of Treatment of Appendicitis Lecture
Dr R H Henry of Tiskilwa outlined a medical approach to appendicitis at the Bureau County Medical Society, arguing many cases recover with timely medical care and surgery reserved for true indications. He noted appendicitis varies by form, age, and sex, with the prognosis better under medical treatment in 80 to 85 percent of acute cases. The talk stressed physician judgment in dividing medical and surgical needs and cited Prof Senn's views on the vital role of medical management.
