We can help them; we should help them.â€" We‘re the backers of the whole USO movement. ;â€" We, were sold on it enough to support it, financially, generously. _ Now they need something instead of money. _ They need our help:in keeping this facility open to them. We can help by addressing personâ€" al letters and telegrams requesting that the Salvation Army USO. in Highwood be _ continued, in the ‘light of the increased @etivity at the Fort, now personnel headquarâ€" ters for the entire Sixth Service Command, housing more permaâ€" Went personnel than ever before, and due to continue in this manâ€" ner for another year or two. Preferred to Taverns Roycemore Girls‘ School Roycemore, â€"wellâ€"known | schoo} for girls in Evanston, will hold its 28th annual commencement proâ€" gram beginning Wednesday, June 6, to Saturday, June 9. â€" Let‘s write, today, to the Nationâ€" al Headquarters, USO, Empire State Building, New York City. We‘d want the citizens of another community to extend this help to our homeâ€"town boys, if they needâ€" ed it and asked for it. Time is of the essence. lt is important that letters and telegrams reach Naâ€" tional Headquarters at the earliest possible moment. . The alternative may be to offer the boys another tavern. We in Highland Park m't consider a tavern very homeâ€" They established the fact that attendance at the Salvation: Army USO was the heaviest of any local facility, and they went on record imevery way they knew how that they wanted to keep the Salvation Army USO open, to provide the faâ€" cilities they couldn‘t find anywhere else, and preferred here.â€" Activity at Fort Increasing Through their officers they apâ€" proached the post commander at Fort Sheridan, who asserted his desire to keep the Salvation Army USO open. They called on the chief secretary of the Salvation Army in Chicago, and obtained firstâ€"hand assurance that the Salâ€" vation Army welcomed all possiâ€" ble help in keeping the club active. And they sent 600 soldiers‘ perâ€" sonal ‘expressionk, urging veconâ€" sideration, to the USO â€" National headquarters. They® got ‘ousy immediately to protest the closing order. â€" They contacted â€" the American Legion in Highland Park who got solidly behind them, with an urgent resoâ€" lution requesting reconsideration of the decision. They talked with service clubs and prominent citiâ€" zens, enlisting their help. _ Soon letters of local business / men and citizens, wires from ‘groups and organizations, began to reach Naâ€" tional USO headquarters. | Returning veterans, particularly those who are trying to master and overcome newlyâ€"acquired disabiliâ€" ties, have found the craft shop an answer to their individual needs, and are gradually working their way back to a normal, or at least a nearâ€"normal use of their.injured members. * Upstairs, in the main floor lounge, more members of the Fort personnel congregate than anywhere else in tavernâ€"conscious Highwood. "These men have famiâ€" lies, most of them, and their use of the club‘s facilities demonâ€" strates the character of the fathâ€" ers and husbands who must, in the country‘s service, remain away from home, wife and youngsters. ‘These men are not interested in lavish programs, frilly. dances, blaring bands. _ What they want most is just a ittle bit. of home, that part they can capture each evening when they write the daily letter home, or sit and read the evening paper or a book from the library shelf, again just as they might do at home. Unit Called "Second Home" . ‘These were the homeâ€"to%n felâ€" lows, much like our own, . from all over America, who were dumbâ€" founded to hear that the National Headquarters of the USO had. deâ€" cided to close this club. They‘d all been in many other USO clubs, all over the country. But they‘d never found any like this one. This one seemed like â€" well, as much as any club could, it seemed like: home. . Many of them called it that, their "setond home."
