Mr. Wood has for some time been a welcome know specie list in the examination of documents, handwriting, typewriting, papers, ink, and other similar matters and his testimony has been used in a gre. important cases in the state oJ and other of the union. At the outset Mr. Wood very plain that an expert in th in which he operates, seeks to tify in a given case as to demoi beyond the possibility of a dout the conclusion arrived at.

is sour conclusive. Facts are present the court and juryr to demoi that the conclusion is correct than testimony of the expert ing of an opinion. Illustrates Work He illustrated the work by saying that very often you can tell the age oi a person who wrote a document by the type of the writing employed. For instance, a person who used a Spencerian type of writing would be a person who learned the system before the vertical system came into vogue in 1892 and similarly a person who uses the semi-slant system learned to write after the vertical system was superceded by the semi-slant system. Also he mentioned that you tell the nationality of a person cause there are certain character! taught in the schools in the cou from which a person came.

Every make of typewriter has a ferent kind of type. To the eye they may appear the same, magnification shows very clearly the difference and 98 percent of the Writing is done by certain makes of machines. Convinces Audience Mr. Wood brought to the attention oi' the audience a great many other examples which convinced everyone present of the absolute reliability oi the work carried on by him. In closing he showed a set of films having to do with the Leopold and Locb case in which he was employed.

He showed first, the typewriting on what was called the being the letter which demanded certain money from Mr, Franks. Then he showed a second letter which has been called the letter' which was written to Mr. him to get on a train and when passing a certain point, throw off the som money. The third sample by Mr. Wood what he designated as the being a copy oi sheaths made by Leopold upon a typewTiter in connection with his digest of cases while a student at the University of Chitcago law school.

A comparison of the three disclosed beyond any doubt whatever that they were all written by the same typewriter. This is shown by the alignment, by the characteristics of individual letters and other similar methods. He also mentioned the fact that Leopold and Loeb had registered at the Morrison Hotel, signing an assumed name and leaving a suit case in order to set up a "straw city Saturday.

He testified that he had been with Reynolds shortly before the accident! and that Reynolds told him he was i to catch the train and go to i Rood house to spend night, I He said he did not see Reynolds fall under the train. K. W. Vanderpool, telegraph oper-j ator at the White Hall station was principal witness. Mr.

Director at National Headquarters, American Nurses Association.

Tuesday evening. November 4th at 6:15 in the parlors of the First Presbyterian church, corner of Capitol avenue and Seventh street. The executive board will meet at 3:30 p. and will be followed by the annual business meeting and elections of officers. The district will have as their guests Dr.

Andy Hall, director of the state department of public health and Dr. A. C. Baxter, assistant director; Dr. Grace Wightman.

chief of the division of child hygiene and public health nursing; Mr. J. B. Johnson, superintendent of the department of registration and education; J. A.

Walsh, director of the department of registration and education; Mrs. Ellen Buttell, secretary of the department of registration and education. The presidents and secretaries of the county medical and dental societies in the eleven counties will be guests also. A number of prominent lay people who are members of boards of directors of various public and private welfare organizations will be the special guests of the public health nurses. The Illinois State Nurses Association has a membership of 6,500 and District Thirteen is the second largest district in the state.

Miss Geister will have a practical message for the nurses since she has had intimate experiences and almost every phase of nursing She will also have a message for the medical men and lay people for she has a deep interest in the knowledge of community health organizations for the whole community. She is especially interested in bringing skilled nursing care within the means of the middle class, that part of the community that has gone without skillai nursing because it did not want charity and could not pay for a full time profesisonal service. The nurses are especially interested because Miss Geister is an Illinois woman, her early residence being Joliet, Illinois. The American nurses owe a joint debt of gratitude to Dr. May Ayers Burgess and Janet Geister.

To Dr Burgess as the director of the five year work of the in an analysis of nursinsz and to Miss Geister for helping tabulate the work of that finding into a real as is found in the grading report under the name of patients and All nurses are cordially invited to enjoy this meeting with District Thirteen and their guests, but reservations for the dinner must be made wTith Miss Alice Dalbey, 1205 South Second street not later than Mondav, Nov. 3rd OCTOBER WEATHER REPORT SHOWS 18 DAYS WERE CLEAR On Monday evening, Nov. 3rd at 8 in the reading room of the Tanner Memorial Library, Illinois College, exercises will be held marking the inauguration of the Edward Capps professorship of Classics at the College.
