Resolutions of condolence, cards of thanks, obituaries, notices of affaire where an admission charge is published, will be e Just as a farmer locks his barn after his horse is stolen, so Mr. John Q. Public demands protection after a disaster. _ â€" True there is no coast guard from Wilmette to Waukegan, but also true is the fact that there is no harbor here. Is Highâ€" land Park financially able to build and maintain a harbor? This is not an industrial community where income from shipping vessels would help to maintain a harbor. How many citizens actually own boats here, which demand a harbor? . Why was money expended for a beach siren when a power boat was a greater need for protection, is heard on all sides. Do you know who bought that siren? The Highland Park Rotary club purchased the alarm and gave it to the city of Highland Park. This public spirited group realized the need for this siren, for in cases of dire need, the system of telephonâ€" ing members of a crew proved to slow when a life was at stake. It was not necessary for the Rotary club to give this to the lc)l.tty‘; but they felt the need for protection, for Highland Park ers. â€" _ The only solution remaining for this city then, is the posâ€" sibility of securing a lightâ€"powered boat and facilities for launching it into the lake. _ â€" A power boat would be a safeguard for our citizens, but a power boat of the proportion that is actually needed in emerâ€" gency should be launched in a harbor. â€" _ _ ww Those who reside along Lake Michigan or any other large body of water know the danger due to changing conditions. Seamen who have ridden the great lakes all their lives would never venture out in a small craft. Boatmen, familiar with lake conditions, are warned hours before of an approaching storm, and such was the case Saturday. Life belts and oars should always be carried in small sailing vessels, yet these are often forgotten or overlooked. Highland Park has witnessed few major lake disasters and we hope that there will not be many more. The city is eager to protect its citizens. Let‘s abolish criticism and put our shoulder to the wheel to help secure the needed equipment to insure safety to our bathers and boaters. 101 North St. Johns Avenue Vâ€"8 engine + Torqueâ€"tube drive, adding to stability and safety + Centerâ€"Poise ride, passengers cradled beâ€" tween flexible transverse springs * Easyâ€"acting safety brakes +« Advanced styling * Longâ€"lasting Ford finish â€"â€"and plenty more!
