The class will meet one evening each week for ten weeks beginning Monday, January 15, 7:30 o‘clock. Class Opens Monday At High School "No one can take this course,"|" _ Henry P. T.

He promised that there would be no written work nor exâ€" aminations. The textbook of the course, "Proâ€" gress and Poverty" by Henry George, Mr. Tideman pointed out, has been acclaimed by such leaders as Nicholas Murray Butler, Newton D. Baker, Louis D. Brandeis, Albert Einstein and Clarence Darrow. He recalled Darrow‘s conviction that "Henry George wrote a profound book, the first book on political ecoâ€" nomy that people may read; the first and perhaps the last that was readable to plain ordinary men." THURSDAY, JANUARY 11, 1940 The student may bring his own copy of the textbook or purchase it at class for one dollar. In an inâ€" troduction to the book, Professor John Dewey of Columbia university, honorary president of the Henry George school, said, "No man has a right to regard himself as an eduâ€" cated man in social thought unless he has some firstâ€"hand acquaintance with the theoretical contribution of this great American thinkerâ€"Henry George." President of the Chicago Board of Trustees of the school is Hiram B. Loomis, retired principal of Hyde Park High school. "Since receiving its charter from the University of the State of New York in 1932," said Mr. Tideman, ‘"the Henry George school has grown from an enrollment of 84 stuâ€" dents the first year to a total of more than 30,000 today. Extension classes are conducted in over 100 cities of the United States and in as many more cities of other countries throughout the world. In New York City the school occupies a fiveâ€"story headquarters building accommodatâ€" ing 6,000 students a term. ‘"The school is a nonâ€"profit instituâ€" tion with no charge for tuition. It is supported by the voluntary conâ€" tributions of its friends. Its teachâ€" ers are business and professional men who serve without financial reâ€" muneration. They give their servâ€" ices because they believe that only in a more widespread study of ecoâ€" nomic principles is there hope for the ultimate solution of our ecoâ€" nomic problem."

Plans for the coming membership enrollment of "The Seeing Eye," faâ€" mous school in Morristown, N. J., which "educates" guide dogs for blind men and women, was discussed "The Seeing Eye" Committees Plan Enrollment Drive home of Mrs. Robert E. Wood, 162 Laure! avenue. Two committees attending were headei by Mrs. A. Reginald Mead, 431 North Linden, and by Mrs. Rogâ€" er S. Vail, 225 Laurel avenue. Mrs. Wood served as honorary chairman of the meeting, and Mrs. Frederick A. Preston of Lake Forest, general chairman of the 1940 Enrollment, atâ€" tended. These committees of volunteer workers heard the story of The Seeâ€" ing Eye and saw a colored moving picture of activities at the school in order that they may pass along to others information about the aims and principles of the philanthropic organization. In this way new memâ€" bers of the Seeing Eye are obtained and they make possible the work of the school. Since the amount paid by a blind person is but a fractional part of the total cost of preparing a dog for guide work and for preâ€" paring the blind persons for such a companion, public financial support in the form of annual memberships in order that the work may continue. Names of members of Mrs. Vail‘s committee are: Mrs. William J. Alexâ€" ander, Valley Road, Bannockburn; Mrs. Joseph B. Card, 235 Central avenue; Mrs. Van G. Kirk, 116 Dale avenue; Mrs. Harold M.

M Urge Support of Campaign Against Of all scourges of mankind, disâ€" ease is the worst. Because of these scourges, many great movements have been successful in combating dreaded disease. The Red Cross was formed less than a century ago to render aid to sick and wounded solâ€" diers on battle fields and in military hospitals in time of war. So efficient did this organization become that it is no longer just a war time aid. In peace time it exercised humaniâ€" tarian impulses in relieving distress due to calamities such as earthâ€" quakes, floods, and fire, so today it is known as one of the greatest huâ€" manitarian societies. The President of our country is its head. Infantile Paralysis Among the more private enterâ€" prises is the Salvation Army. First serving the needy and destitute both in body and spirit.

Its organization spread and became a vital factor in the front line trenches during the World War, bringing aid and comfort to those who needed care. Its service to the doughboys is a glorious page in its history. Today we have another battle against the ever present forces of disease. We have a fight against disease that is merciless in its toll, a disease that maims, cripplesâ€"kills â€"the dreaded Infantile Paralysis. No community is immune and none know when it will strike. To comâ€" bat this plague, the President of our country _ sponsored the â€" Warm Springs Foundation of Georgia. Since its organization, the Founâ€" dation has made grants to 13 colâ€" leges and medical schools, to 16 hosâ€" pitals, and 14 other organizations. The work done by scientists as a result of Foundation support already has yielded clues to the nature of the virus causing the disease. In order to keep pressing forward to some day eradicate this discase, and bring it under control, we need the moral and financial support of every one in our county. The money raised through various efforts in our county activities will be divided 50â€" 50 between county and national orâ€" ganizations.
