In connection with the article it was stated that the Highland Park Busi- ness Men's Association at a meeting had refused to support the Army and Navy Center unless high priced em- ployees were discharged and the books examined. The newspaper article in question received wide publicity and was copied in several other news- papers in Lake County, thereby giv» ing further vitality to statements that were absolutely baseless. It is important that the people of Highland Park should understand the facts in connection with this news- paper articlc. Highland Park Army and Navy Center is not supported by any direct contributions of Highland Park money and has not been so sup- ported since the War Camp Commun- ity Service took over all war recrea- tional activities. In 1917 the High- land Park War Camp Community Ser- vice Board was organized for the purâ€" pose of carrying on the work of the National War Camp Community Ser- vice in Highland Park. The National Organization supervised the forma- tion of our Board and furnished all of the funds for the support of our Army and Navy Center and of the Sheri- dan Soldiers and Sailors Club at Highwood, and for carrying on the Saturday night dances at the Deer- field-Shields high school.

The quarantine of the Great Lakes station has caused some undue anxâ€" iety amnng the people of Highland Park, especially so in the light of the fact that there are numerous cases of grippe in town. In the opinion of Dr. Bergen, such undue anxiety is wholly without foun- dation. “Highland Park," he says, “is, only enjoying its usual little win- ter run of grippe. I have seen noth- ing here since one year ago last De- cember that might be properly classed as influenza." “Of course, there is likely to appear sporadic cases here and there of in- uenza in a modified form, but they are only the scattered cases which fol- low in the wake of a big epidemic. The history of such epidemics as we had a year and a half ago shows some- what conclusively that the same thing will not appear again for a number of years. “There are only eighty-four cases of grippe at Great Lakes, which, con- sidering the number of men at the station, is not astonishing. 'They have placed the station under quaran- tine purely for precautionary rea- sons." BANK STOCKHOLDERS IN ANNUAL MEETING The annual meeting of the stock- holders of the Highland Park Trust and Savings bank was held in the banking: rooms last Monday evening, January 12th. The report for the year 1919 showed that the deposits Action is Taken at Great Lakes Sta- tion for Purely Precaution- ary Reasons had increased $262,000 during the twelve months, an increase of 100 per cent. The earnings also showed a very satisfactory increue. No change was mude in the omen] personnel, the same officers and di- rectors being re~elected for the en- suing'year. Miss Edith K. Davies, who resides on North St. Johns avenue. bu been added to the cleriéll (arm, that mik- ing a total of six native employm.

The National omce also en- gaged Mrs. Merritt as assistant to Mr. Harris at a salary of $75.00 per Imonth. Mr. Harris has given all of his time practically without vacation, both night and day, Sundays and holi- days, to the work of these Centers and has deservedly earned the high opinion of our community for his 1untiring devotion to this work. CHARGES MADE IN RECENT CHICAGO PAPER DENIED By Publicity Committee A few days ago an article appeared in the Chicago Herald and Examiner announcing the possible disruption of the Highland Park Army and Navy Center, alleged to be due to the fact that the Center was employing high priced assistants and had refused to permit its books to be inspected. In connection with the article it was stated that the Highland Park Busi- ness Men's Association at a meeting had refused to support the Army and Navy Center unless high priced em- ployees were discharged and the books examined. The newspaper article in question received wide publicity and was copied in several other news- papers in Lake County, thereby giv» in}: further vitality to statements that were absolutely baseless. Community Service Board, at a Meeting Monday Night, Voted to Enter into a Two-Year Lease for the Fletcner Property, With the Option of Another Year. FACTS CONCERNING FUTURE OF THE ARMY AND NAVY CENTER Moreover, the War Camp Commun- ity Service keeps its books at the headquarters office at Chicago and no money can be spent excepting up- on requisitions and vouchers which are most carefully audited and which have to come from a previously calcu- lated budget so that no expenditures can be made that are not within the budget allowancep Accordingly the work has been carried on with every reasonable economy consistent with doing the work effectively. The Army and Navy Center had taken care of an average of taro thousand soldiers and sailors every week, these figures including the to- tal of 'the daily attendance. The Sheridan Club at Highwood has like- wise taken care of several hundred per week.- and the Saturday night dances during the last year have ca- tered to the enjoyment and recrea- tion of about 26,000 boys and girls under the most careful and painstak- ing supervision of our Highland Park women. This is indeed a record to be proud of. The falsity of the newspaper nrti-l cle in question, therefore, appeen to; be in the statement of salaries of? $250.00 and $100.00 per month, u-’ sumed to be paid to Mr. Harris and: Mrs. Merritt, Ind in the stutement‘ that the local Army and New Center keep: my books or has refused tavex- . hihit them.

End 1).,Silher, the Secretary, or Mr. Burris, any one of whom would have furnished the above facts and figures immediately. The Army and Navy Center and the Sheridan Club are to be discontinued as War Camp Community Service ac- tivities on January Slst, 1920, due to the fact that no more national funds are available for recreational pur- poses for soldiers and sailors. Meanwhile, the need of some kind of a community center where our various community activities can find a home, has been emphasized more and more during the past year. We need a place where any and all of the members of our community can drop in, meet their friends and a<quaintances, play games and have small meetings, and an ocvas'wnal party or entertainment, and where boys’ and girls‘ clubs can feel thor- oughly at home and can develop their best efforts and actixities. In addiâ€" tion to this. it i~' our hurmirgtarian duty to offer a Welcome to the Sul- (liers and sailors who representml and fought for us during the World war whenever they (house to beaunm our guests. and the ('enter Would there- fore offer them the same hospitalilr Welcome that it always has in the past. They, however, would have no exclusive rights or any other right than that of guests. It is im- portant also that our community pro- tect itself, in a certain way, by seeing that our soldier and ssilor guests are given. the opportunity of meeting our people under proper surroundings and in a wholesome snd hospitable atmosphere. It is hoped, too, that a way will be found to continue the community dances, not us dances for soldiers and sailors, but us entertain- ment in which the boys and girls of our city can meet And hove I good time under proper supervision out! with proper regulations. The War Camp Community Service, through its national headquarters, has furnished a fund of about $12,000 per annum up to the present time and will continue this up to January 31st, when all financial support will cease. A plan of campaign is now being de- vised to raise a sufl’icient fund in the community to carry on the actual community work for the benefit of the Highland Park community. Three public meetings have been held so far. at which there has been a large attendance of interested people. The Highland Park Woman's Club showed its devotion to the ideals of commun- ity service by voting recently to ac~ quins the Bitter homestead on the corner of Sheridan Road and Elm Place for a club home. The ladie- had been accumulating a building fund for many years and the dream of having their own clubhouse had been with them during all thia time. When they were finally able to realized this hope, with the utmost self-sacrifice and devotion to the cause, they ofl'ered the Community Service Board of Highland Park (the name of the new organization that will supervise community activities) the use of the property as a commun- Tity center. The meeting on January 15th appointed a Committee on Sites, composed of George A. Mason, Frank ‘L. Cheney, Harry Parkin, Mrs. Noble lCrandall and Mrs. Tom Wyles. The Committee made a careful survey of the Bitter property and also nee!» gtiated with Mr. Fletcher, the ow'ner fof the property in which the present sArmy and Navy Center is located, to fisee what arrangements could be made {for the future. The Committee re- ?portod to the public meeting held on TMonday night that in its opinion the TRitur home, due to its site and in- Etemai arrangements and structure, iwaa not adequate for the community prpoae needed and that the Commit, tea had been able to negotiate with llr. fieteher (or a lease of the pm ient ‘qmrters. exclusive of the second gfloor apartment, upon a basis so rea- isonable from a rental standpoint that (Won Pm 10) VOLUME 9
