In the Inter Mr. Jensen did not <uy unvthin: that he has not burn 21d“)â€" in the letter Mr. Jensen lint tint fix) anything: that he has not been zidxo- t'uting for years 'nut the danger of hnpeless (l85p0llullllll (if our latnnlsvupe is so pronounced that lit; letter comes in the nature Hf ti timely warning. It is fortunate that We have Mr. Jensen's great influence in this work of arous< imz a more intelligent interest in the natural beauty of these North Shore uplands and ravines and in the forest‘ cow-r to which most «if this beauty is due. To us of Highland Park there is the added goml‘furtune that Mr. Jensen is one nt' our citizens and owns real estate here. and the fact that his interest: in public improvements is that of a property owner as well as that of nature lover does nvt detract from the value of what he says. It is natural to hope that we may be able to avail ourselves of his counsel in setting a pioper value up- on the resources we still have at our disposal and in planning for their conâ€" servation. The suggestion for a carerui survey ‘ of lands to be plotted and improved; and the adoption and conscientious carrying out of the plan that fits‘ existing conditions as brought out by such a survey is worthy of immediate consideration. Many of our Highland Park business men belong to the City Club and other Chicago organizations which are now giving a great deal of attention to the subject of city plan- ning, with the welfare of Chicago in view. These men and others besides could surely be relied upon to take an active interest in city planning in Highland Park also where the results would be immediately tangible and could not fail to increase property val- use in general. EVeryone subscribes to the theory! of conservation but all are not agreed! as to its application. Some apparent-l ly are more interested in the conserv-i atinn of the resources of Alaska thanl in those of their immediate vicinity.. .Vlr. Jensen's enthusiasm is for the‘ natural resources right at hand. He:l would keep for us, if possible, the; wood path, the undisturbed vista. the'i pleasing contour of hill and slope, the?‘ ravines with their curving channels: their terraces and flood plains, and? their Suggestion of depth and mystery. ‘ He would have “the character of the forest and the topography of land considered as a motive for man's im- provements." Thus “the motive of the woods" would have a place in the minds and imaginations of those who would plan our roads and walks and parkway; and of those who would set about so refined a transaction as that of locating a house in a hit of un- touched landscape and of utilizing the natural resources without seriouly marring its beauty. This motive hm‘ prevailed in the treatment of the grounds about Mr. Jensen‘s summer home on Dean Avenue. Here on an area not at all extensive the house with the green sward and vegetable and flower gardens has displaced less than 21 fourth of the original native growth. Simplicity and admirable restraint are shown in the treatment of the natural features and yet all ed- ‘euer from from Prof. Jesse Lowe Smith i to express my appreciation etter by Jens Jensen relating ‘t'BSt‘t‘VilUOii of the native for- :he North Shore which appear- .e issue of the Highland Park )r J and shortly after- N85 published in the Chicago This letter has attracted f'd- comment in the columns of illiil elsewhere which well he i'e-cchoed in thecollimns Highland Park Press. it was ite and convincing and i very attractive appeal for the ation of a “charactt ristii‘ an lanilsmpe." e letter Mr. that he years uh. 1:11. lDU'lt' t'nih Jensen ilitl not sziy has not tidVo- iitit the of s (lespoiliition of our landscape ronounced that his letter comes nature of ti timely \V'urninir. lt mate that We have Mr. Jensen's iitiuence in this work of arousu more intelligent interest iii the 1 beauty of these North Shore s and ravines and in the forest 1: been for tl'dli wt to which most of this beauty To us of Highland Park there added goml‘foi'tune that Mr. 1 is one of our citizens and owns itate here. and the fact that his st: in public improvements is )t a property owner as well at of nature lover does nvt t from the value of what hei natural to hope that we .12, it is ‘ Atter these From the St“: ilighway Commiuionor It is to be regr‘tttcd [hit in some sec- tions of the Stat} tariiiers object to the system «it mud iixiproi emcnt 'd: provnied by thei ite Road Law lhey seem to be at the opium? that these roads are be- ing impronil for the benefit of the auto owners. and that the cost Wlll far exceed the benefit, that the big hur- den of this tax, if it ~‘niirden, heavily rest upon tlic tarni liinds «1t this State, it seems to ltit‘ .icarcful investiga- tion ot the new Rilild Law and up the iiig'riw l\’.\' of llllliOL', Will all t‘iti- special is i] will its plu‘dtmn tn (l|\p“i :ini' tippnsitiu'i «ill’tl unite tar: 1 ers in .inetirnest thS. cs1 :tiullV [lit' mink ill) of it Stats Viiile sV stem (it mud improVement.
