â€"T‘he Higbland Park Press .‘ Entered as Second Class matter March 1, 1911, at the post office at Highland + m“*h“‘w&m * W'flbhmuwmuflnwm Lake County, Illinois In former days in the business world, trade was a very irreguâ€" lar thing. It rose and fell with the seasons, and during some periods it was hustling at a high rate, while often it dropped out of sight, and much of the time retail store people were yawning over their counters, and trying to pretend they were busy. _ __ Modern advertising has greatly changed that situation.‘ If business is naturally dull at certain periods, the merchants have special sales, and the public is made aware through their interâ€" esting notices that they can gain an advantage by buying in these quiet times. So the people turn out to the stores at times when naturally they would not buy much. Thus trade keeps flowing in a more regular channel, and avoids those dull periods that are a costly burden. Many busines? men of this city would testify that it has worked that way in their affairs. In every great crisis Our Country has been held together by sticking to fundamentals as laid down in the Constitution of the United States. During intervening periods and when the people do not feel the need of the gctual protection given by that great document, the nation suffers periods of agitation when attempts are made to destroy constitutional rights, privileges and protecâ€" tion. We witness this every day in our state legislatures, in congress and in initiative measures. A man who raises his voice against the destructive process is often criticized as a reactionary, an enemy of the people or a tool of big business. But when danger assails the nation, we all rush back to the shelter of our Constitution. What safeguard would we have, if its fundamental soundness had been destroyed by the attempted tamperings of more than a century ? . _ THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1928 mm shandabie uio in en se i The New York Herald of January 22, published a cartoon showâ€" | ing a log jam. Two loggers were breaking up this jam of logs, each of which was marked "a law," and the loggers were marked "legislators." The point of the cartoon was that more and more laws are being produced, and as these laws are propelied over the dam by the legislatures, they fall into a pool of water marked "futility." The idea conveyed by the cartoon was that we do not need more laws to clog our legislative bodies and create larges and larger pools of unenforceable statutes, but that we need better enforcement of existing funpdamental laws which already cover practically every fielfi of }.mman_ gnd_eavor. . . Some day we will reach a crisis in our legislative hysteria, and then we will again be forced to fall back on the guaranties and protection afforded by our fundamental law contained in our fedâ€" eral and state constitutions. evening at the home of the bride‘s amother, Mrs. Morton Taylor Cuiver, 359 Washington avenue.
