It makes less sqund than a good sewing machine. It is without doubt the most quiet electric light and power plant on the market. This in 'itself is a great comfort. You are not noisily reminded that a machine is making light and power for you. Lalley-Light is quiet be cause it is scientifically designed. When you come in to see it run, you will be agree ably surprised at its smooth, steady, quiet operation. We urge that you do hot . delay a visit to our place .. of business. It will be highly instruc tive, whether or not youj intend to buy at once. , I NfJIOfJ fifll I1IFR WIIIUIlUUUUIL.il .. 11 . Z o I Grande t -business- Thursdnr'." ten..

An ap propriation of $2,087,1132 for the West Voint academy for the next CmCAGO, Jan. 31 Tho congres sional committee investigating politi cal activities of the National Security leugue has begun its investigation of the Chicago chapter of the league, calling officers o the local chapter and men prominent in Chicago's busi ness and political life to testify. H. H. Merrick, chairman of the lo cal chapter and president of tho asso ciation of commerce, was the first wit ness summoned.; Merrick was tiues tion as to how nnd when he became chairman of the chapter, who elected him, where they met and other detuils of the election of the league's officers. Merrick said Colonel George Buck ingham, fortmir Governor Richard Yatea, Edward' Bancroft and Irving Washington, among others, were re sponsible for his being president. Ask ed what he knew of these men, Mer rick said he knew "little of them" ex cept that one of the principal clients of Mr. Bancroft was the International Harvester company.

That most of the time it had but one employe, an accounting wo man, that it' had but little money and -.that its officers received no salaries tfhatsoever. The investigation here It said to.be based on a report that cl u ing the last campaign in Illinois nn Utlinois congressman was. called before representatives of the league and tt reatencd with defeat unless he fol- luwed a course outlined by them.
