26 THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER II. 1921 WHmtttt fttmfcap tftoemng Club Shbntttf• 111. Ootober 31, 1921. Mr. E. W. Weber, Editor, Lake Shore News, Central Street, Wilmette, Illinois. Dear Mr. Weber: At a time when the home town paper is being emphasized throughout the entire oountry, I can not refrain from writing you concerning the Lake Shore News and its place in this community* v Seldcni, indeed, have I seen a news- paper which has taken its stand for the best things in the community, not only in business but along moral and religious lines, as has the Lake Shore News, As President of the Wilmette Sunday Evening Club, I wish to say that our Executive Committee is most grateful for the space which you have devoted to this community organization* We have found you at all times ready and willing to help. A com- munity newspaper of the right kind is one of the greatest assets of any community* TEACH CHILD REAL LIFE, NOTED EDUCATOR ADVISES ] *fhe duty of parents is to teach children the real contacts of We, J was the statement of Dr. Earl Barnes I of Philadelphia, noted educator, who ! spoke before 500 north shore moth- jers last week in the Woman s club auditorium,' Evanston. Dr. Barnes talk was the second of a series of seven talks to be delivered weekly under the auspices of the Central Council of Evanston School clubs and to which mothers of the north shore have been especially in- vited. •The problem of every day life is that of a student. The child who has learned, how to study in the grades will make a good record in the university, and will adjust him- self properly to the problems of life, he declared. A child's education should not close when he is out of the school for the day, asserted Dr. Barnes. There he receives only second-hand knowl- edge, knowledge that has been gath- ered in books and pre-digested for him. Parents must give children real contact with things, with people, with community life, with financial af> fairs, and the multitudinous things that make up an ordinary day's liv- Very sincerely, President, Wilmette Sunday Evening Club. As an example, Dr. Barnes cited the instance of how he made his boys realize the value of money, how he interested them in stocks and bonds by having them purchase them, think about them, make them part of their experience.^ Physical attitude is important to study, explained Dr. Barnes. A good strong table, strong chair, good light, and , quiet are the material accom- paniments to good study, he de- clared. _______________ V »'<' NONE KNEW THE DIFFERENCE "Modern music is.getting more and more difficult to understand," com- plains a musical student. It is. The simple airs of our forefathers seem to be dying out, and strange and grue- some discords are taking their place, says London Answers. "Would you mind telling the people at those far tables not to scrape their plates?" asked a diner at a restaur- ant. " " "You're mistaken, sirl" replied the waiter. "That's the orchestra £ A good anecdote is told of Richard Straus*, whose music is somewhat dif- ferent from that of Johann Strauss, to whom a memorial recently has been unveiled in Vienna. When his compositions were first played in thijs country, they sorely perplexed some of our players, who could not *n££**t the fight between haitnj,:***! cord.

Every home into which wie home paper goes thereby has a greater interest in the com- munity; and community soli- darity is doing much to carry us through the period of unrest and discontent which is notice- able everywhere.

Particularly has this been so during the vacation period. Recently the Belgian police dis- covered a visitor lo the country perch- ed up in a home-made hut among tree branches. Called upon to come down and explain his conduct he refused and showed from his elevated position that the high cost of living "down be- low" was too much for him and that lie, had enough provisions to last him a few days till his vacation came to an end. So persistent was he in his refusal to come down that finally woodcutters had to be summoned to saw the tree, with the result that tree, visitor and4jut came falling down. The visitor escaped with a few bruis- es and a severe reprimand from the police. Another similar case is reported from the Pyrenees^ where John John- son, an English visitor, was discover- ed by the police living up in moun- tains under a canvass tent with his family. Finding a car, to all appear- ances in perfect condition, along the ( mountain road, police began a search for its owner. He was found in his tent lazily reading a book. He ex- plained that he had lived for some time in the mountains using the car to fetch provisions.__He was being "stung" rather too severely and de- cided to live out in the open. He was let off to continue his vacation, but had to pay visitors' tax for the whole family. He still found it cheaper to live up the mountain. 'Tor Sale" Ads Sell Lots and Lots of Lots "Give Me a Chance To Think!" All right. That chance will be during the week of No- vember 7th to 12th. During that week take a little time and go over in your mind the many things your home town paper has doneâ€"is doingâ€"will continue to doâ€"for your home town. Think about it seriously. Think whether or not you have stood loyally by at altfcimes when the community's champion has needed financial and moral support. Think whether or not you have always done your duty by the town's best friend. Think how much better your home town paper could do if each citizen were as loyal to it as it is to them. Think ot some one far away who would en- joy the weekly visit from the old home town paper, then hand in a subscription for that far- away friend If you are not now a subscriber, be one.
