John Evans, retired railroad con- ductor. died at 8:30 Sunday morning at the Railroad Men’s home in this city. and 67 years. This is the season of gloomy skies and thoughts of winter and a possible coal famine narrowly escaped. the season when the householder takes inventory of his summer wages and wonders why summer cannot last all the year round. It isn’t a happy seasonighese few days when the sun is hovering about the equa- tor, un eeided whether to start for one cold pole or the other. but inclined to take a chance on the south because he was north last summer and needs a change. The skies weep and the wind wails for the joys that are gone with the summer flowers and song Birds, and impressionable man gets the blues and‘has another spell of grumbling about the weather and anything else that hap- pens to arouse his ire. ‘ u n I I u 4..

Radian End of Life’s Line at Home The Htgblanb Park Press But no equinox ever could hold its grip on the climate tor long. and there is a silver lining to these September clouds, for just ahead is “Octobel‘r’s bright blue: weather" to exchange for that dark blue grouch. and away ahead the long vista of brilliant days that always marks these splendid north shore autumns. Weather is like life. It has its ups and downs; its bad days are sure to come. but the good ones so far outnumber the bad that always there is cauée for thankfulness that the law of com- pensation is unerring in its distribution of joys and sorrOWs. There’s something in that term “equinox," equal day and night. And those who have traveled far through life’s changing seasons know that the nights of trial and trouble and suffering and grief are more than equalled by the bright days of success and health and happiness. The night may be long. but “joy cometh in the morning." The wheel turns and things even up somewhere. Published weekly by Joan L. Unnu. and PAH. L.

Lul II Action of the county board on this petition will he awaited with interest by the shore cities. If no action is taken, there are other'legal means to secure justice. and it may be necessary to resort to such measures. It would not be impossible. \i'ith the large population in the shore cities. to get the majority of the voters in the county to favor establishment of a commission form 0'!" government in Lake county. Then. in all probability. the ma- jority. f the people would rule. rather than a majority of the towns pa. And there are other means. It is only a question as to which method might be adopted. The condition is serious and needs a severe remedy. VETERAN R. R. MAN DIES HERE SUNDAY PAGE 811 If conditions regarding the lack of equalization of taxes be- tween property owners in shore cities of Lake county and of real estate m the hinterland are as described it is time the injustice complained of by three hundred or'more objectors from these cities, in their petition to the board of supervisors, be remedied. Their appeal points out that in several instances the courts have held that the disproportionate taxes on city property as compared with the assessments on rural lands-is unfair and illegal. and when the property owners ask relief, they are asking no more than their rights under the law. they declare. Property in the shore cities is taxed more heavily in propor- tion to its value than is country property back from the lake. and the funds thus raised, largely by taxation of the improved city property, are to a great extent expended in public‘work of one kindand another where it will do the country population the most good. because their representatives on the board of supervisors outnumber the supervisors from the shore {owns and maintain control of the board and its finances. the petition alleges. .r ALIA ALI.
