We realize, I feel certain, that we cannot say all about anything. Yet many of us, at times, believe, talk, and ct as if we know all. Who, What Rests? Then again most of us realize there is no such things as what the word "rest" implies; that Highland Park‘s buildings, homes, and people, for exâ€" ample, are constantly changing; that a Highland Parker at 9 o‘clock, Thursâ€" day morning, January 22, 1941, standâ€" ing in front of the new Service Cenâ€" 0.

Directions for "talking sense" are made vivid by the use of abundant examples to prove the frequent, serious consequences which strike people" who fail to "talk sense ;" fail to observe lifeâ€"facts; fail to speak factually, descriptively, and inâ€" stead, speak inaccurately and inferâ€" entially.

Yet daily we forget these lifeâ€"facts and act without judment, care{ul thought, and without scientific conâ€" sideration and action. In neat, comprehensible sentences, then, Dr. Lee presents to the reader "uncommon common sense" deftly and interestingly. What the author has written might be verbally tlassified as "everyman‘s science," a way better for understanding the world of words we live in; a method to think more clearly, and to act, not in triggerâ€"fashion, but thinking fashion after close observaâ€" tion of lifeâ€"facts. The author, a dark, handsome man, himself a teacher of "clearâ€"thinking" methods, quite naturally and suggesâ€" tively commands the reader (for purâ€" poses of understanding) read with a clear and alert mind. Highland Park Woman‘s Club members will rememâ€" ber Dr. Irving J. Lee‘s stirring lecture giving at the club last winter.

The reason for the twoâ€"year note is to perâ€" mit a taxpayer, if he so desires, to begin saving in January of one year and continue through that year to save for his taxes due the following year. All â€"notes are sold at par and acâ€" crued ~interest. When presented in payment of income taxes they will be received at par and accrued interest up to and including the month in which such taxes are paid. Interest will not accrue beyond the maturity of the notes. If not presented in payâ€" ment of income taxes, they will be reâ€" deemed for cash under certain speciâ€" fied. conditions at the purchase price paid for the notes. In other words, the taxpayer, if he redeems the notes for cash, gets back just the amount he paid. c Public Health, 139; First Aid,131; Personal Health, 130; Swimming, 126; Safety, 110; Life Saving, 106; Pathâ€" finding, 97; Bird Study, 91; Cooking, 89; Handicraft, 88; Pioneering, 85; Camping, 84; Carpentry,83; Wood Work, 83; Athletics, 81 ; Canoeing,78; Firemanship, 74; Rowing, 71; Readâ€" ing, 67; Civics, 60; Scholarship, 49; Metalwork, â€" 46; Physical Developâ€" ment, 39; Bookbinding, 39; Music,38; Leathercraft, 29; First Aid to Aniâ€" mals, 28; Mechanical Drawing; 25; Conservation, 18;â€" Machinery, 17; Art, 17; Stamp Collection, 17; Wood Turning, 16; Seamanship, 16; Woodâ€" carving, 16.
