Again we recommend that vou attach ·a hobby to your regular job. It's our favorite recipe for living a successful life. We have noticed that persons who have two occupations seem calmer and happier than those who have only one. · A well-known north shore citizen is both lawyer and artist. Another divides his time between music and advertising. We heartily believe that everyone should have an avocation as well as a voeation. Only by so doing can a hmnan being avoid onesidedness. One week from next Thursday north shore residents tnay properly give thanks for the safeness of the communities in which they live. A young woman can walk home from the railA Safe road station after dark Communit,. and f e e 1 certain that nothing will happen to her. Property is well protected from the movements of burglars and sneak thieves. The October report of the Winnetka police department indicates not only vigilance on the part of the police but also a high degree of intelligence. According to this report there were no robberies or burglaries during the month, and what is n1ore remarkable, considering the ·size of the village, only two instances of . house-breaking during the year. And in both cases the burglars were caught, convicted, and sent to prison. A preventive measure, which is probably made very little of in cities, is the guarding of homes in the absence of owners. This practice not only protects homes against thieves and marauders hut does away with cause for worry on the part of the absent owner. Police authorities could do much more good along this line if residents would phone headquarters before absenting themselves for any length of time. Always citizens are urged to co-operate with their police department. Help yourself · by helping you~ police. The Boy Scouts of the north shore ~retry ing to raise $16,000.

But weak as the acknowledgement of our gratitude has been, it has been made, and we who were not in the ranks have done all we can now do. But with the passing of Armistice Day the spirit of the day has not passed. War must go! Peace must remain. Man is not instinctively pugnacious. International problems like individual problems may be solved by reason and kindliness. An armistice is a standing still of arms, a cessation of hostilities. \Ve have it in our power to make this cessation of hostilities a permanent condition. More than this we can, if we will, so cherish the spirit of armistice as to bring about a lasting world unity, a true brotherhood of n1an. Just as we were congratulating ourselves on the freedom of our village from burglars and hold-up n1en, along come two of th~m and separate north shore ladies from a diamond ring worth $1 ,000. \i\'hat the police or the ladies could haYe done to prevent this robbery we cannot see. \Ve can only hope that with the improvement of conditions in Chicago there will be fewer such occurrences. Again the Little Symphony orchestra is delighting north shore people with its high-dass and entertaining programs. \Ve need take no long trip to hear the playing of these talented musicians. In a brief half hour we can reach New Trier assembly hall. Thanks to the sponsors of this excellent enterprise !

Sometimes such cowards are caught before they escape. yood ! accusation that be is spending the nation's good money to serve his private "oil" interests in South America. Sure enough, we heard just that sentiment the other evening and promptly drew our own conclusions.
