, Issued Thursday of each week by the cation must be written on one side of the paper only. and be signed with the -â€"-fl-n'-dfi."‘- Lester 8. Olson, Publisher. Entered as second class matter March 1, 1911, at the Post Officeâ€"at Highland Page 2 The other night we reported an unlighted car had been parked on our street for a few days and we thoucl;‘t the police should know about it. We picked up the phone, got the police department at once (thanks to the able and courteous operators we have), talked with young Ed Moroney, told him our story, and two minutes later a squad car was here, piloted by likeable Leonard Larson. Officer Larson, neat, cleanâ€"cut, s martly attired, immediately checked the car, obtained a lot of information about it in a short time, reported his findings at once back to headquarters where liâ€" cense information was checked. to determine the owner of the car. And then, now and then, we get a newspaper clipping which atâ€" tempts to prove, or disprove, a point ‘which. landed in this pillar of type. Let‘s begin with a tribute to our police forceâ€"one of the most alert and most vigilant of its size in the nation. ~ They‘re a fine group of.rnenâ€"the Moroney brothers, Chief Patton, Larson, Moon, True and all the others. They‘re stern, yet friendly. They‘re intelligent, understanding and right thoughtâ€" ful. They‘re sympathetic, too. But, most of all, they love our town, and they‘re really conscientious about wanting to make it clean, safe, and an_ excellent place to live. NEAT, CLEANâ€"CUT ... We bring this up to show you Highland Parkers how lucky you are to have a police force that‘s on its collective toes, always ready, always making certain everything in Highland Park is protected, particularly property, personal and. otherwise. Here was just another minor incident: A parked car without lights; a car that nobody in the immediate _ neighborhood _ could identify. . . "_ aâ€" Despite its seeming unimportâ€" ance, our police force checked it at once. We don‘t know about you folks, but we surely feel safe in this grand town of ours. SECRET CLIPPING IN THE MAIL ... Now and then we get unsigned letters in the ‘mail. We usually read them over and if they reâ€" quire attention, it‘s given at once: â€" Thanks a lot, you .policemen for your great work. > * PURNELL & WILSON We got one the other day Let us lubricate it reguâ€" larly with Ford factoryâ€" Highland Park, III.

SO LONG, BACHELORDOM . . . As seconds tick by we near the altar to take wedding vows. Bachelor days are just about over. â€" The clipping, apparently from a paper in this area, was irregularly cut with a. scissors. ® The clipping read: ‘There is one place in the Bible where the scripture justifies a man in using tobacco, s "the Golden transcript. It is in.z: last chapter of Revelation and is the second sentence of the eleventh verse. It is a safe bet that some old sinner will read that. verse within an hour after reading this paragraph." $ THIS SINNER HASN‘T ... Or, should we turn the letter over to the police? We might turn it over to the police department for ‘special checking. f $ The yellow envelope, which conâ€" tained the clipping, is 4% inches wide, 4%, inches long. It was mailed ~from Lake Forest on March 3 at 11:30 A.M. It had a blue three cent stamp on it with one of the white perforated edges left on the outer side. It was parâ€" tially sealed, apparently not by a woman.for there were no lipstick traces or perfume scents, It was properly addressed in an abbreviâ€" ated way with an elite typewriter that needs a new black ribbon and some cleaning. As a Biblical scholar pointed once, "If you took what the Bible said literally, you tould justify almost any action." That‘s enough about that until the anonymous . typist owns up to his mysterious letter. 4 WHAT IT SAID .". . Well, so far, this sinner hasn‘t read that particular verse lately. Nor does it matter. Point is that the Bible was used as an authority for conduct. BASEMENT WATER â€" PROOFING Will we be hearing from you JAMES J.
