"I eannot understand how such a worthy message by our good Mayor ever.escapes the popular pages of our home paper, The Highland Pujk "*We all think and hope that the present economical condition will pass like many another. But the acuteness of the suffering all over the world is awakening something in the hearts of men that has never before been touched. More and more the leaders of thought and opinion are giving thought to the issues involved and asking themâ€" selves with an awakening conscience should needlesgly exist. "The human race is not going to be endlessly exposed to this state of want and suffering. But it is sure to say that it must serve its purpose in awakening public opinâ€" ion ‘TO THE CAUSES THAT HAVE BROUGHT IT ABOUT. ... "These are grave times and our leaders must start thinking seriâ€" ously. In order to save the people from the menace which confronts SOME of us today in all this turâ€" moil of unrest and disruption, it is personal and patriotic "integrity (NOT POLITICS) the issue t:tbo decided by our new Government in Washington and the representatives of all the states.

"The peace and tranquility of the people was not discovered by diploâ€" mats sitting around long tables, or statesmen conferring behind closed doors; but by fathers and mothers, and husbands and wives demanding in open forums the right of their children to life and the pursuit of derfuil world which only. the cyes of the dreamer can see and the clean thinking souls comprehend.

Last ,Monday, Jan. 23rd, at the: Highland Park: Public library, sponsored by the Highland Park Reâ€" publican Women‘s Organization, some outstanding men engaged in ‘the making and enforcing of laws and a woman (Mrs. R.
