Senator Swift, even when ured by Lake County boosters to lend bis tongue and lus preseuce at the hear- einl Springfield ou Tuesday when we tried to land te State Fanuers' I.stitute for 1924, could't take the trouble to speak about two minutes ou the topie assigued to bim-le reached the meeting roor n l the capitol after Ljako Couty's alloted time had passed and other counties were pleading. 'It was, perhaps, too,. mucli trouble or too luconsequentive for the senator to do bis bit in hs move Vo land the state meeting. Perhaps lie was ,eraid lie M1GHT bc 'charged" with doing SOMETJIING for Lake, Couuty sud thus break bis hitherto unbrokeu record along that hune. Senator Swift again at Springfield on Tuesday did the wrong thing at the wronV time. Hie spoke against the proposed bomne for rehabilitating xentaly uubal- auced soldiers of the world war and feit that the state should not assume the expense sucb a projectý would entail. Heie lsisted the w&r was over aud lutimated a lot of folks did't reaize that fact. Therefore, leienl- sisted, there wvas no reason o speud.xnoney uow *to take eare f' the unfortuuates. vho have developed or are developing mental affections. The senator's "so"cita- tion" for the boys who sacrifled their lives, their inuds, brouglit forth silent dlsgest on the part of the other senators who soon atter bis speech against, passed the resolution by a big niajority vote. And thus Swift agaiu Voes ou record as opposed Vo a laudable recognition of Vsboys who fouglit for our coutry's security, and lie thfreby incses bis, list of oppositions Vo meritorlous ineasures in Illinôis, for, who la there lu the state who igu't wlling Vo spend EVERYTBING uecessary Vo show our gratitude, our love for these youug men, mauy of whom today have deranged inuds and ail because they were willing to figlit the figlit for ail of us, iucluding Senator Swift lI A BETTER FY LAND The best, the truest fairyland iu the world is healtht and strength, physical fitness to lie one 's self, with the t power Vto play a part lu the affaira of life or Vo'm~ake a borne for sorne one wbo pisys sucli a part.
