ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY From Tuz HIGHLAND PagKk Park Press of Dec. #1, 1919 Highland Park still cherishes its dream of a community house, and opportunity, in spite of the old truism, appears to be knocking more than once at our doors. It only goes to prove that any movement which preaches a greater humanity, a truer spirit of democracy and justice, can not easily be crushed to earth. There are always earnest and conâ€" secrated people who keep the fires of a righteous cause forever trimmed and burning in their souls. After the First of February, the Army and Navy Center will be dependent upon the citizens of Highland Park for its support. The War Camp Community Service, having fostered this institution so long, having built up in our midst a genuine community house, albeit on a small scale, is compelled to turn the Center over to the people of Highland Park. What will the people do? That is the question. After a voluntary absence of one term from the presidency of the Modenese Mutual Aid society, Mr. Valerio Zagnoli was once more unâ€" animously elected president for this year, mt the society‘s meeting reâ€" cently held ai the Labor Temple, Highland Park. Secondo Natta was clected viceâ€"president by a unaniâ€" mous vote. â€" Louis Ori was elected trustee without opposition. The â€" following officers will sueâ€" ceed themselves; Robert Saielli, diâ€" rector; Egidio V. Mocogni, treasurer; Nello Ori, secretary; Alfonso Burâ€" woni, financial secretary.

The people at this meeting were unanimous for the preservaâ€" tion of this one great democratic institution of Highland Park, then the gathering was made up largely of those who are already committed to humanitarian ideas, of those who long to see the day when America will prove her "democracy," a thing which she has never done.

On the face of things, it has no common interests, and yet, beneath the surface, it is fired by the same ideals, answers to the same patriotism, is actuated in all its multiple organizations, by the same high purposes. And still it is inarticulate in regard to its common needs and aims, in the large. It moves with hampered efficiency, in the little orbits of its myriad circles. Highland Park is known, up and down the north shore as a large pleasure loving town of wealth, not yet awakened to a social conscience. We need leadership in Highland Park as much as ever the petty principalities of nineteenth century Germany needed a Bismark. We need some one to touch those scparate organisms into life and prove that they are each but a part of one great corporal body. Only then shall we cease to feel cold in the extremities. The above editorial, appeared in the HIGHLAND PARK PRESS issue of Dec. 31, 1919. Although the dream of twenty years ago has been realized, the question still remainx, "what will the people do?" Is this editorial reminiscent of the present, or will the people of Highland Park come forth and support this project to the fullest extent. Highland Park is just as much in need of a social center today, as it was twenty years ago. True, it may not be your idea, nor ours, of what we might like to have for a Community center, but Rome wasn‘t built in a day, and perhaps, 20 years hence, our dreams may be fulfilled.
