Grade Séparation Will Save Life Let', Hawsten ,the. Day!' BathingbeachesÉ'in* the various, villages ini the township wili be formnally opened for ýthe current summer season Saturday, j unie 17.. The s e YOUr beaches are aniong. Bathing Beach the finest in the Mid- die- West and are even. preferred by many ta the seaside bathing meccas. , Every_ facility is provid- ed for the comfort of the bâthers. Steps are taken each year to reserve the beaches, insofar as is possible, for use by the resi- dents and taxpayers of the community. AIbove ail. adequate l)roitectioni is affo'rded.. for bathers of ail ages from the tiniest tots to the, older residents. Supervisors. and thoroughly trained lifeguards are on the job daily to guard against accident with the resuit that the safety record on local beaches is wvell nîgh l)erfect. hI view of. al these provisions for the comifort and protection of bathers, it be- hooves those"who enj'oy the-beaches to observe strictly, whatever regulatioris have of necessity been estabiished. Enjoy your community beach to the, fullest, but, remember that it belongs t'o the entire commtinity and therefore:must beoperated under strict- regulation. More- Over, since, many v Isitors w*ilI be here to share with 'Our famnilies the pleasures of the beach, make plain to them, also, that these fine beaches are whatý they are be- cause they are operated onl a businesslike basis. Until such a time arrives, however, it is the, plain duty of those who have some- thing to help out the fellow who lias noth- ing. Many of us are erjoying a measur e of jobs, whether temporary or permanent, anything that will help them to provide something for themselves and their de- pendents. If you have any sort of a job, no matter. how trivial it niay appear to.. you, cal p your Village hall and report that you would like to havé a man or wonîan to do that bit of worrk. You nlav flot, be helping, a gr eat deal, but you will I)e contribuing someithin g 1to the collec- tive community responsibility of providing for tho'se tho are in desperate -need. Cal ulp today!_ Good. times'may. be near at hand, but, mei anwhile these people must eat. It s gatfyigndeed to 1earn that President Roosevelt has decided ta include the, Skokie Valley region in his 'gelierai reclatationi and re- Skokie Pro ject 'forestation program a Reality to relieve the ùnem- ploymient 'situation. A-thousand or more men wiII l)e pro- vided, with -jobs throughi the suinimer and autumn seasons in e nicing this x trernely fascinating area that is truly a part of the north shore. Engineers have been retained for several weeks niaking thie prelimniuary surveys and we have the promise that the Skokie region, Nvith its Uroad expanse of prairie lands, dotted with lagoons, traversed ,vith bridle paths' and edged withi augmented forest tracts, will soon, present the vista 'of a great park designed. for the pleasure of ail who enjoy the out-of-doors. It is prornised, aiso, that the nat.ural beauty.of the Skokie xviii not bemarredinthisprocedure.

Naw that cool weather bas, aided in abating the mosquitaes and ather insects,1 we won't. have ta start every day from scratch. We don't'miss, the mosquito miusic either.. If there'.s anything we distike %vorse than our neighbor's yadeli.ng, it's the, triumfphal sang -of a mosquita about ta descend on its prey. But that's 'neither here nar. there. The -vital message we wanted ta deliver was this: It wouldn't do much good ta make a. record ofmasquito sangs; the, thing would be scratched in almast noa time. We've heard of dying by inches. Then we got- a deeper conception of life and 'were thus forti- fied ta bear up under the news of a nman wha died by feet., He spent al Saturday an the tennis courts, ta deveiop beautiful blisters on bis pedal extremities.
