(7 e+ _ _ It is a series of achievements of which every American has a right to be proud. ‘Yet the sentimentalists say erica is failâ€" ing in her duty, to help the world! 1 .c %>) Sense‘is better than sentiment, Consider the record: The Washington limitétion of armaâ€" ments conferenice, the Dawes report, the contribution of 4 or 5 billion dollars in relief goods and relief loans, the straightening out of Cuba by Crowder, the averting of war in Cantral America, the making of approximately fifty international agreements since the war, the lishing of . the open door policy in the near east and of liberal tment. of Cb;m in the far east, Not a Euroâ€" pean nation approaches this record. _ 5 [ l The talk of many of the advocates of the league implies that the United States has no foreign policy and that it is doing nothâ€" ing to help the world. A former American am or to Italy, Richard Washburn Child, r,emtt:‘lin his recent book, "A Diploâ€" mat Looks at Europe," that in s of practical finished jobs the United States, gingleâ€"handed, had a better record as a peaceâ€" maker than the League of Nations, which had sidestepped the Ruhr and backed out of the Corfu dispute. | t e Yet the newspaper is always in the forefront, defending the community in which it lives, and in promoting|all things that are for the community‘s good. It probably givesmore free servâ€" ice and more honest service for less money than any other comâ€" mercial enterprise. No man would want to live in a city or town without newspapers, and the newspapers themse‘tves are usually an index of the prosperity and progressiveness of the community. "It is the cheap and joyous custom to cntxfii:e newspapers. Nearly all public speakers from snake charmers ‘to preachers atâ€" tack newspapers for. the reason that it is the simplest and easiest way to get quick applause. Applause is the th: of life to lungl_xepn;upagkers." f Like other modern institutions, newspapers often make misâ€" takes, and the public does not hesitate to tell I‘the editor about these errors. But the mng:titude of the task) of building the modern newsé)sper in so short a time will easily account for the mistakes, and they are no more numerous than they would be in other lines of endeavor er similar conditions, People like to criticize public officials, lawyeE'u. and, the genâ€" eral run of folks, but for some reason, they like best of all to. criticize newspapers.* The reason may be that the mistakes of the newspaper are always b%;»re them, and cannot be denied or buried. At any rate as Mr. Patterson said: wlfi Most American agree with the statement of Grove Paterson, editor of the Toledo Blade, to the effect that the modern newsâ€" paper is one of mankind‘s four greatest institutions, the others of course, being, the home, the church and the school. M frovement is not prohibitive, and the benefits would be notable. t is hoped that the city administration will act with dispatch on this proposition so that the new system may be installed and in use this summer. { M " areeares oi ne Lreramiin Tsd hnd n ameiemimmniiat shede i orrete mn tE caberides 4 needed. Highland Park at p;eaent has the t lighted busiâ€" ness district on the North Shore. ‘It is pro’;:‘;:)b}‘l‘;a the most proâ€" gressive and fastest growing of the northern | suburbs and, as such its licpting_ system should correspond. The cost of the imâ€" The special committee appointed to investi%te the feasibility of installing an improved, mrfiem ornamental lighting system in the business district of Highland Park has presented to the city council a comprehensive rem covering all dpetails of such a plan, with carefully prepared esti iates of cost of igfta.llation and opâ€" eration. This report should. have serious consideration at once. The improvement provided for would be marked and is greatly With Frank ‘A. Munsey‘s death still a It is argued that if other streets in the city like Second aveâ€" nue and Laurel aventie, with much less traffic on the average, are widened to 40 feet, Green Bfly should be that width at least, and that 03. would be economy to provide thus for the future instead of going to added expense of still further wid?ing the street in a‘few years. ‘‘The fortyâ€"foot plan has been unat imously approved by tht?fll-lighland Park Chamber of Commerce. P onk _ It lis also widelyâ€" believed that this img;g nent, when it is made, should be largely charged to public t, because of the general character of the traffic which it bears. This would lighten _ A.very serious error wasimadé a few years ago when the adâ€" ministration repaved South Green Bay only 21 feet. Let‘s not make the same error again. â€" fNax n tss Nt l4 Interest in the 'repm'in,él of Green Bay road north with a wider concrete roadbed:is marked both along!that street and in the city gengrally, but there seems to be a ery marked sentiâ€" ment in favor of a fortyâ€"foot wide pavement, instead of thirtyâ€" three feet, as proposed l;yoghe city administration.> > t It is pointed out by those favoring a width of forty. feet that this is a through street with a heavy volume of traffic, which is increasing greatly every year. Hence, it is urged, that it is good buaiuesi,to build for the future while the improvement is being made, that the thing to do is to make this way wide enoug to take care of traffic for many years to come rather than, gimply for the needs of a few years. = , f! 5 Mumam-nm:::pguu Park, Illinois, under the Act of h 3, 1879 The Higbland Park Press PAGE TWO THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 19 Published weekly h’thmmmc«-ef’am“ifi n Lake County, Ilinois | | . . ; U. 8.
