It was in the early hours of another day when the party returned to. the county jail and the drunk and sick fils locked in their cells. | The decent thing for Sheriff Ahistrom to do is to . resign. He has served his usefulness as Sheriff of Take County . He has lost the respect of even that element of society consigned to his care for various law violations.

But Lake county, faced with a myriad of problems that center about the Sheriff's office, needs and demands a man that measures up to altogether different standards and ideals than Sheriff Ahlstrom has demonstrated he is capable of. $ _"mif he is the big boy his attorney pleads, then he should resign and let Lake County elect a man to the ¥ery important office he administers.. § Fea KEYSTONE PRINTING SERVICE, Publishers.

Yes, there is some-- thing to learmn from Henry Ford's argument, and it appears to us to be nothing more than a lesson of "The modern city has done its work," is Mr. Ford's latest declaration. And he goes on to say; "The city has taught us much, but the overhead expense of liv-- ing in such places is becoming unbearable. The cost of maintaining interest on debts, of keeping up water supply, sewerage and sanitary systems, the cost of traffic--control and of the policing of the streets. are so great as to offset all of the benefits of the eity. 1 believe that these costs, coupled with sharp competi-- tion will foree our manufacturing industries to seek locations in smaller towns." ; uunheownsmrythm:;bounndholowtlubnd set aside in his deed:; He also decided that towns have absolute rights in fixing the height at which planes shall or shall not fly above them.
