But the warmth and charm that are Highland Park still exist. a GUARDS WITH MACHINE GUN ... With all the military copy in the nation‘s newspapers nowadays, I‘m reminded again and again of of my Army days, still far too vivid One duty I was assigned to pops back into my mind more than any other. And I don‘t know exactly why. = It concerns one night when I was on guard duty, high up in a dark and lonely tower at the AAF overseas â€" replacement | base . in Kearns ,Utah. Nothing exciting happened, thank goodness, but it was what might have happened . . . ALONE ... â€" Will Highland Park continue to maintain its clean, positive small town approach to happy successful living? Below me were perhaps 100 soldierâ€"prisoners, presum a bly sleeping, not much older than L They had deserted their overseasâ€" bound units. They‘d been caught, brought back to Kearns and conâ€" fined. I was alone in this high tower. I was alert to all things ;&round me. in my â€"hands 1 heldâ€"aâ€"toaded machine gun, ready for instant firâ€" ing. My orders were, "Shoot to kill!" if I saw any prisoner attempting to break confinement from weak cell quarters. It was my duty to guard these "criminals" throughout the night. NEGATIVE DUTY ... It was a bleak, negative duty, particularly for an _ untrained marksman ‘such ‘as I who knew very little about guns, let alone the fierce weapon I gripped that night. G A SQUEEZE . . . AND DEATH ..

(SPECIAL TO THE HIGHLAND PARK PRESS) WHITT NORTHMORE SCHULTZ Some Local Chatter Let‘s Take a Look But age creeps upâ€"27 years have almost slipped byâ€"and you begin to realize that other than good health, your No. 1 asset is time. timeâ€"time to read, to be athletic, to relax, nap, take it easy. As hours race by I often think back on youthful days when time seemed unimportant, abundant, alâ€" ways available for use any way you wished. A FULL LIFE ... Squeezing each minute out of every hour each day is tiring but necessary to a full, complete and successful life. To waste time is criminal. I try to use each minute as if it were my last in this pleasant and planned life of ours. From â€"aâ€"material . standpoint, I‘ve placed the arbitrary value of $10 an hour on my time. But desâ€" pite the financial aspect, I value each ~minute philosophically beâ€" cause I know I‘ll never have that minute again and that I had better use it wisely, profitably. PLANNED LIFE? ... Perhaps some of you out front value your time very little. But not I. . f Planned life? Yes. Each of our lives is planned for us. Each of us is given just so much borrowed time. How are you using yours? Are you using it to help manâ€" kind? Are you using your time to improve your town, your home, your family?

If not, why not begin using it that way now? These too few hours we‘ve been allotted will be happier and richer for each of us if we spend them trying to build a better world, tryâ€" ing to make our families happier, trying to do our work well.
