This meetâ€" ing, set for 8:00 p.m. at the Deerâ€" field grammar school auditorium, is cpen to all residents of Deerfleld and vicinity. It will bring before this community a man long hflm} for his achievements in the field o civic education. Two years ago Dr. Tubbs stated, "It must be apparent to every thoughtful person that we are living in dangerous if not perilous times. Twenty years ago the United States entered the World War. We were assured by President Wilson that we were entering that war to achieve two great purposes: (1) to make the world safe for democracy, and (2) to put an end to all war. But the present world situation furâ€" nishes abundant proof of our ghastâ€" ly failure to achieve these ends. "With the final triumph of the Allied Powers, it seemed that the democratic ideal had at last become firmly entrenched in the minds and hearts of men, and that the hosts of oppression and tyranny had been forever put in chains. "But as we near the end of the second decade after the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, we are painfully alive to the fact that the democratic ideal for which millions gave on the field of battle their last full measure of devotion, is much more seriously threatened today than it was before the World War. The pestâ€"war period has given birth to concepts of social organization and government which challenge democracy much more menacingly than most people willingly admit. Dr. Tubbs is a Hosier by bitth. He was born February 14, 1883 on a farm near Hillsboro, Ind., but when be was only a year old his parents moved to Rossville, IIl., where he was graduated from high school in 1902. Although a marâ€" ried man, he worked his way thru Northwestern university, an instiâ€" tution he entered as a freshman in the fall of 1905. Two children were born before he received his degree of A.B. in June, 1909. Awarded a fellowship by the University of IIlâ€" inois in the spring of 1909 he did graduate work and obtained his Master of Arts degree in June, 1910. Further graduate work was done later at the University of Chicago in summer sessions of ‘16, ‘21, and ‘22 and during the year 1923â€"1924. He received his Ph.D. degree in August 1924, The prophetic nature of Dr. Tubbs‘ remarks stamp him as one possessed of an extraordinarily keen insight into today‘s problems. He brings to this meeting a long background of distinguished public service that amply qualifies him as an authority on his subject. NUMBER 30
