R-------- August 27, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 17 School Boy Patrol Does Splendid Work in Curbing Mishaps| "The northern Illinois and northern Indiana now school boys' patrol thousand boys, and its influence is felt by ap- proximately one million school chil- dren," says Charles M. Hayes, presi- dent of the Chicago Motor club, "and this influence does not stop with the child, but spreads until it comes in contact with parents and thus it is a force for the reduction of accidents, not only among children but among adults as well. "The work interests the boys be- cause it presents new problems every day. They realize that they are doing a worthwhile work and it develops courage, self-reliance, and quickness of thought and action. The boys regulate traffic, and come to have a respect for law and order. They also, and this is more important, regulate the actions of the children on the street. Watch a patrol officer keeping the little tots standing on the sidewalk; see how he snaps the signal for traffic to halt, and then see his protecting arm motioning for the little ones to cross in an order- ly fashion! You must see the patrol boys at work before you can realize how important is their task," concludes Mr. Hayes. embraces some ten SELL INTER-LINE TICKETS A new inter-line sales service has been launched by the Chicago North Shore & Milwaukee Railroad--the North Shore Line--whereby through tickets to any point in the United States served by a railroad can be purchased from agents at North Shore line stations. force in| Christian Science Church "Mind" was the subject of the les- son-sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, Sunday, August 21. The golden text was from I Peter 3:8, "Be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren. be pitiful, be courteous." Among the citations which compris- ed the lesson-sermon was the follow- ing from the Bible: "Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven" (Matthew 5:14-16). The lesson-sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "Light is a symbol of Mind, of Life, Truth and Love and not a vitalizing property of matter. Science reveals only one Mind, and this one shining by its own light and governing the universe including man, in perfect harmony" (p. 510). There are 164,383 residents of Illinois owning stock in electric light and pow- er companies, and their holdings total 1,445,580 shares, according to a recent tabulation by the National Electric Light association. Owners of securi- ties of other public utilities would swell this total to nearly 700,000. The first Masonic lodge in Illinois was organized at Kaskaskia on Sep- tember 13, 1806.
