Another landmark of "The Roaring Twenties" is gone with the passing of Babe Ruth. Those of us who remember his fame as it was chronicled in fremR2 headâ€" lines will long remember him as we remember Jack Dempsey, Red Grange and Bobby Jones. Already it is evident that his fame will not diminish as his name vanishes from the headlines. t Babe Ruth, the legend, Sullivan, the legend. We sincerely hope that the Waukegan referendum results in a victory for the city and its citizens‘ commitâ€" tee. We are sure that in Waukegan, as in Highland Park, the citizenry will protest the curtailment of city services if the referendum is defeated. Up to now, the pattern is much the same as in the Highland Park and North Chicago city referenda. The city can show a demonstrated need for additional funds. An impartial citizens‘ committee has expressed approval of the tax rate hike. An intensive campaign is being waged to "sell" the voters. Now Waukegan is in the midst of an earnest camâ€" paign to convince the voters that it is necessary to raise the municipality‘s taxing power if necessary services are to be provided. Highland Park tried it an% failed. North Chicago tried it and failed. The park board in Highland Park tried it and failed. What they all tried, was to get the voters to OK an increase in taxes. . © WAUKEGAN TRIES IT Vol. No. 28; No. 26 (Continued on page 5) Nobod Names of winners Up To Now BY BILL THOMAS Penny Carnival A group of women represented chapter 806 at the International Conference of Women of the Moose on August 17 at the Stevens hotel in Chicago. % Pertaining To Coal â€"And Mr. Lewis The speaker at the next Kiwanis Women of the Moose nesday, August 18, in Witten hall with Madelene Neargarder, alumni Nelson Moose, held open meeting on Wedâ€" riage to Russel Ogden of Johnsâ€" town, Pa.
