To the Editor, WINNETKA TALK, Winnetka, III. Dear Sir: Our attention having been drawn to the letter from Edward Yeomans, which was published in your paper of April 12, we are writing you with reference to the "Resolutions" which gave occasion for Mr. Yeomans' caustic criticism of our Post Com- mander. Those "Resolutions" were unani- mously passed at a regular meeting of this Post, which is composed of the great majority of all Veterans of the World War resident in Winnetka. They were not prepared by the Post Commander. The "Resolutions" expressed the regret of this Post at the unpatriotic and seditious movement which has recently given such unsought for notoriety to Northwestern University and the city of Evanston. There had just been held in Evans- ton a meeting which was addressed by a convicted war time slacker, and at which the Flag of Our Country was hissed. That meeting was largely, if not entirely, the result of the efforts of a small group of immature and bigoted students who have sworn never to as- sist in the defense of their country, even in the event of a defensive war, and who have been active in per- suading others to take such an oath. We, who know the frightful cost of war and who hope and pray that there may never be another, unhesitat- ingly condemn such sentiments as those expressed by Allinson and the group of students referred to in the "Resolutions" signed by Mr. Lynch. We believe such sentiments to be dangerous to our form of government, which not only gives equal oppor- tunity to, but requires equal service from all citizens, in peace as well as in war. \ = We refrain from answering Mr. Yeomans' studied insult' to our Com- mander in the un-Christian manner which it merits, and which he might well expect from the "standard variety of military mind" darkened by the sinister light of war sacrifice for him as well as for others. 'Nor do we care to do more than' make passing reference to the distasteful, if not blasphemous,' parallel 'which he 'has chosen to 'draw. We see ino similarit between' Christ and Allirison. We 'cannot "refrain, however, from pointing to that inspired utterance of Nathan Hale, a Christian student of 'other days. which containg more of the unselfish idealism of Christianity than 'do those purely selfish oaths sworn to by a.few hysterical Northwestern stu- dents who owe! their présent liberty and happiness to the. sadrifices made by such men as those reviled by Mr. Yeomans. J Yours truly, WINNETKA POST NO. 10- THE'AMERICAN LEGION The Executive Committee: Daniel Noe, ! Marshal Knox,™ H. W. Snell, Harold J. Lynn, "JM. Dickinson, Jr. ATTEST = - a Arthur C. F. Gedge, Post Adjutant. HEALTH WEEK OPENS SUNDAY State-Wide Observance is Anticipated The most hearty response in years to the health week program scheduled to open Sunday, April 20, in Illinois is an- nounced in a bulletin issued this week by Dr. Isaac D. Rawlings, state health di- rector. Public schools and local pub- lic health workers are particularly ac- tive in promoting the observance of the occasion throughout the state. The most popular features of the lo- cal programs will include health play- lets, to be presented by the school chil- dren, motion picture films on health sub- jects, well baby clinics and diphtheria prevention campaigns. J "Every motion picture film available from the loan library of the state health department has been engaged for the week," said the bulletin, "while a half dozen copies of other films have been borrowed from national health agencies to meet additional demands. The entire field staff of the department has been scheduled for local service in connec- tion with well baby clinics or speaking engagements. A "In a number of places such organi- zations as Rotary Chambers of Com- merce and the Farm Bureau have ac- cepted the responsibility of initiating diphtheria prevention campaigns while public health nurses, women's clubs, teachers, health officers, ministers and other public spirited individuals and agencies have busied themselves with this and other features of the program. GLENCOE HAS TWO BIG REALTY TRANSACTIONS Elmer F. Wieboldt has purchased, through Gilbert D. Johnson and Brother, a ten-room brick colonial residence, located at the southeast corner of South avenue and Valley streets, Glencoe, from Mildred C. Roberts, for approximately $60,000. The lot is 272x182 feet and the resi- dence stands on a wooded knoll afford- ing a view across the north links of the Skokie Country club. Gilbert D. Johnson and Brother also report that they have placed considerable vacant property in this section of Glencoe under contract within the past two or three weeks, sales of which will be announced later. The same brokers have also recent- ly sold for Harry J. Luebke his Glen- coe residence, located at the southwest corner of Hazel avenue and Glencoe road, for $61,000. The property fronts 305 feet on Hazel avenue and 198 feet on Glencoe road and because it is in the business zone of the village, an undisclosed syndicate, acting through the State Bank of Chicago as trustee, naid at the rate of $200 per front foot on Hazel avenue.
