SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1922 AS TO THE PROPOSED CONSTITUTION The text of the constitution that has been worked out by the mem- bers of the constitutional conven- tion during the two years, almost, of effort, is not particularly in- teresting reading to the general reader, but it is quite plain in its meaning and of such importance that every citizen who will vote upon its acceptance or rejection should go through it with suffi- cient care to. know what are its virtues and what its weaknesses. It is not a perfect document from the point of view of any in- dividual. Such an achievement would be impossible. The question that is to be brought before the electorate is not so simple as thu. of the acceptance of a complete and perfect instrument. It will be a matter of deciding whethe: that result of the deliberations of the men who were chosen to rep- resent the people of the state in the convention which has prc duced the proposed constitution meets, with reasonable adequacy, the conditions of the times, and takes account of the probable de "velgpments of the future. We must determine in our own minds whether the new is better than the old and consider whether it is the best that can be produced under the stress of present politi- cal and economic conditions. These questions can be an- swered only after study of the text of the proposed new code. This study is a duty of citizenship that cannot be shirked by any who take their obligations at all seriously. rei meerierereeewe BUT WHEN? It has been a costly experience to the operators and the miners of the anthracite coal region to suspend work there, a costliness which will, so far as the operators are concerned, be cheerfully pass- ed on to that long suffering body, the ultimate consumer, when the time comes that the bins must be filled before the winter begins. There is a regular procedure that must be followed, just be- cause it always has been followed. There is the occasion that breeds discontent, then the threat of strike, then the strike and, finally after the maximum ill-feeling has been developed and the chances of a peaceful settlement are quite out of the question, there comes the conference, a long drawn out affair in which the single purpose seems to be a determination not to yield an inch on both sides. Some day, perhaps, mankind will see the folly of the order of the program. Some day there will dawn the realization that moving the conference to the top will avoid the bad feeling, will hasten the agreement and help in the solution of the problem that has brought about the trouble. It looks simple enough, but it is the simple things that, generally speaking, escape the notice of those who are hastening along through life, doing the obvious next thing, without thought of WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1922 SCAT! When Suzanne was getting the worst of it in a tennis match with one Molla Mallory over here in the United States not long ago, she became suddenly ill and un- able to finish the match. She lost thus, technically, to Molla. Ali- bis, affidavits, charges and coun- ter charges followed. Suzanne averred that she had been shame- fully used and justified in refusing to continue. Molla said every- thing was lovely. Suzanne want- ed another chance. Now that Molla went to Su- zanne's territory and was beaten in liberal fashion, more alibis and charges of unfairness have devel- oped. It was nearly dark, the court was soggy, the court was uneven, she was "off her feed," says Molla. Suzanne says every- thing was lovely. Molla wants another chance. Is this Molla-Suzanne row a forecast of woman's influence on sportsmanship? Men through ages of competitive sports, wheth- er the prize were a wreath of bay leaves or a purse of a million dol- lars, have wrought a tradition that the best sport is the game loser. Everyone wants to win; to lose gracefully is an accom- plishment. Will women in sports accept this ideal or must they go through a tempering process of several thousand years? RE GRADE CROSSING DRIVING The present national campaign for safety that is being carried on by the railroads should do some- thing to stop the careless driving over the treacherous grade cross- ing. One look at the posters that have been placed generally along the railroad right of way should bring a determination to every driver who stops to examine them, never to be the cause of such expressions of horror and terror as are depicted upon the faces of the occupants of that pic- tured car.

N | . who sits at the wheel of an auto- mobile to impress him with the result of failure of a plan which includes a small margin of safety in crossing the tracks. Even with chances against such accident as does happen to every motor oc- curring just at the moment the car is passing before an oncoming train, there should always be reckoning with the result should such an unlikely thing be. Per- sonal recklessness is no excuse for endangering the lives of those others in the car who have noth- ing to say about the chance that is taken. RRS HEARING MONEY TALK Union funds and property of union members are liable to at- tachment for damages growing »ut of a strike, says the legal de- partment of the American Fed- eration of Labor. The opinion is based on the su- preme court decision in the case of the Coronado Coal company.

For here, at last, is the "proof" of the printer's care and skill in craftsmanship. Flaws which were undiscovered perhaps through many pre- vious processes now come to light with all the conspicuousness of the "sore thumb." And a circular or an announcement care- fully set up may even then be vitally in- jured in appearance through little imperfec- tions in the press work. This plant, however, conducts a checking- up process so rigidly throughout all pro- cesses that right up to press-time we are positive no flaw has appeared--and after it has been printed--well, if you buy your printing from us, you well know how sat- isfactory the work is.
