    might also have been on the mind of Briggs because his son Herb Juul was a Major League baseball player around this time. He’s actually higher ranked in relevant internet searches around ‘chicago’ ‘Illinois’ ‘juul’ ‘1913’ despite having a Major League career only slightly longer than Doc Moonlight Graham’sReport

    Chat GPT—which often makes things up!—suggested this:

    There was a notable Juul Law in Illinois, passed in 1913, sponsored by State Representative Juul, which extended the school year and raised education standards. It was controversial, especially among business interests who were concerned about the impact on child labor (since a longer school year kept children out of the workforce longer).

    A document discussing the activities of the Illinois state legislature in 1913 makes a brief reference to it, but assumes that the reader knows what it is.

    The revenue law has been amended by providing that sinking
    funds for the payment of bonds and interest on bonds may be
    raised outside of the limitation on the total amount of taxes under
    the Juul lawReport
