Community Center was organized to provide the means of establishing an outlet for the energies of our young people along constructive lines. We want the youth of Highland Park to conâ€" sider Community Center as their project. "We feel that this approach will go far toward developing a sense of ‘rugged self help,‘ if you will, which characteristic is so necessary to the successful moral and physical deâ€" velopment of the modern youth." "To install in the young people a feeling of self accomplishment as far as the Center is concerned, we plan to let them take an active part in the construction of many of its appointments and furnishings. We will supply the materials All we ask of the young folks is their time, energy and enthusiasm. 0 THOMAS 8. DUFFY, Executor E. 8. Gail, Attorney, Highland Park, IIl. Phone 809.

F49 Winnetka 3012 F49 It being some ninety days or more since all this fanfare was raised about delinquent tax colelction, your reporter dropped into Commissioner Sharp‘s office to see what was what. Commissioner Sharp, who is breathâ€" ing easier with each passing day now that the incinerator problem is entering upon less stormy seas, disâ€" played a somewhat fretful mood when the tax problem was brought up for discussion. It took no Houâ€" dini to ascertain that all was not well with the tax collection proâ€" gram and when tax committee Chairman Sharp unburdened his soul, the reason was readily apparâ€" ent. For the benefit of the uninitiated, Highland Park is made up of six principle taxing bodies, namely, Deerfieldâ€"Shields High school disâ€" trict, School District No. 107, School District No. 108, North Shore Sanâ€" itary district and lastly, the City of Highland Park. Taxes are collected and the proceeds distributed proâ€" portionately among these agencies. Now the fly in the tax collection ointment is this. Foreclosure proâ€" ceedings always necessitate a cerâ€" tain amount of expense. When a piece of property is marked for legal action an exhaustive research has to be made into the title, the amount of taxes involved, and checkâ€" ups on a thousand and one details. This investigation naturally costs money and it is the general consenâ€" sus that it should be borne proporâ€" tionately by the various taxing units that will benefit from the funds collected. When this foreclosure program was inaugurated last fall it was assumed that all the taxing bmliell in Highland Park would be eager to put a shoulder to the wheel and help finance the project. To date, a 100 percent response to the comâ€" mittee‘s pleas for financial support is definitely lacking. Commissioner Sharp is of the opinion that eventuâ€" ally all the taxing bodies will "see the light" and come into the fold. In the meantime, however, "times a‘wasting." â€" _ (Continued from page 1) The outcome of these meetings was an agreement that worth while results could be obtained by instiâ€" tuting foreclosure proceedings against many of the delinquents. It was admitted that in cases in some localities where the back taxes penâ€" alties and special assessments apâ€" proximated the value of the propâ€" erty, little success could be hoped for. In the case of Highland Park, however, where only a small amount of property is in great distress, and where real estate has enjoyed a comâ€" paratively active market, foreclosâ€" ure proceedings would undoubtedly be successful to a great degree, The City of Highland Park does not see why it should bare the brunt of paying most of the expenses inâ€" volved in foreclosure proceedings when they are eligible to receive only a small amount of the proceeds. That is why the city fathers are showing concern over the tax probâ€" lem. By ELMORE M. MURPHY Winfrid Husband Popular Lecturer To Speak Feb. 6th (Continued from page 1) iels, H.

Before long everyâ€" one was eagerly absorbed in printâ€" ing library pockets, typing cards, "We need some new bookâ€"cases, paper for book pockets and some way of printing and typing," the children continued. "Of course, we must have the apâ€" proval of Mr. Wright, our superâ€" intendent, before we launch any such plans," the children thoughtfulâ€" ly reminded one another.
