It has achieved such im- portance as to prompt editorial comment in one of Chicago's big dailies. The accompanying editor- ial is reprinted from the Chicago Herald and Examiner of a recent date. Going To It There are fights and fights. For an example of the old-fashioned kind, knock 'em down and drag 'em out, one down and another come on, we recommend consideration of the sitnation in Winnetka. The question is of a school site. Shall it be out near the marsh, where there is plenty of room, twelve acres to play in, an outdoor hygienic institution of the most ad- vanced type, which some of the children must travel three miles to reach? Or shall it be less expensive, less "advanced", but central in po- sition? That is the main issue. But dozens of others are involved. If the shcool is on the marsh, omnibusses must run to collect the children. Evidence on the cost, the reliability and the morals of the bus system has been collected from all over the United States and presented elaborately to the citizens. The population of Winnetka is anywhere from four to seven thousand. The new school, as plan- ned, will cost from two to three hun- dred thousand dollars. Analyses of expense in ratio of population are as common in Winnetka as robins. The effect of private subscriptions on public education is argued on every street corner, of which Win- I netka has more to the square mile than any suburb in America. Neighbors of long standing glare and pass each other by. Both sides have publicity bureaus, which clog the mail with circulars. Votes in the coming referendum are as care- fully calculated as a millionaire's in- come tax. The feeling of last Tues- day's election in Chicago is milk- and-watery in comparison. We hope the matter is settled amicably. Time was when the popu- lation of Winnetka consisted of fifty-three Harvard graduates and their families, and a Mayor. That Russel, $145.00.
