| 14 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 8, 1922 BUSINESS MAN TALKS ABOUT ARDEN SHORE Says Rest Camp Deserves Unlimited Support Editor's Note: This is the second in the series of Arden Shore articles. Many business men of Chicago are be- ginning to realize the commercial value of the good start in life that is given boys and girls at Arden Shore Camp. William E. Clow, who has many Arden Shore boys in his employ, when pressed to tell what he thought of them replied that '"'actions speak louder than words," and added that he had just written the superintendent of the camp to send him another boy. Mr. Clow writes the following in ap- preciation of the work of the camp. y WILLIAM E. CLOW With the magic wand of kindness, care and instruction in the right method of living, many a boy, at Ar- den Shore, is changed from a liability to an asset to all of the people of Chicago. A majority of all criminals are turned from the straight and narrow path in their youth. Many of them could and would have been saved if only they had been taken into an Arden Shore. On Sunday, returning from a visit, we took into our auto a mother and father, who had come from the city to visit their boy at the camp. To Follow Example. 1 asked the father if they had plenty of fresh wi in their sleeping rooms at night. Before the poor man could reply--and use the word "poor" with a double meaning because he was such a little man--so thin and sickly looking that I wondered if he had strength enough to support his family--his wife spoke up and said: "No indeed, we do not have any air in our rooms. Not only does my hus- band close the windows and doors, but when he gets into bed he draws the bed clothes over his head and goes to sleep." The man smiled and said: "I am not going to do it again-- a carpenter lives next door to our home and I am going to .get him to help me build a porch; and when it is built we are going to sleep outdoors, and until that time we will sleep with every window open." And he added: "It is just wonderful what they have done for our boy at Arden Shore." We have a number of boys from Arden Shore. I could tell many an interesting story of our experiences with them and what they have ac- complished. One will illustrate: A dear little woman was trudging along the road to Lake Bluff. We had seen her with a slender young boy at Arden Shore--and we soon had her story. A widow, her husband dying about a year earlier, leaving her desti- tute and with two young sons. The elder, she told us was a strong healthy boy, who answered an ad- vertisement, and the previous spring had gone to work on a farm. He made no complaint to his mother-- just sent her his wages. But when he returned in the fall, he came back only to die within a few weeks-- broken down by over-work and expo- sure. The younger son was too deli- cate to work and fortunately was sent to Arden Shore. When he attained normal weight he came to us--is now earning $60 per month and helping to support his mother, and together they earn enough to live far better than they had been--when the little mother did all the work.

"The pressing neea of our colleges | increased | iY) nd universities is for equipment, facilities, and endowment with which to carry on their work," said Dean Heilman. He asserted that the increase in attendance since 1917 in the twenty-five institutions which are members of the American Associ- ation of Universities, is 113 per cent, whereas there has not been a cor- responding increase in equipment, ap- propriations, endowment and teach- ing staffs.

At its meetings the Board upon application of any taxpayer or upon their own motion, has the right to revise the as- sessment of any taxpayer, in part or in whole, and correct it as it may ap- pear to them to be just, but in no case can the assessment of any person be increased unless he or his agent has first been notified in writing and been given an opportunity to be heard. The Board assesses all property sub- ject to assessment which has not been assessed by the assessors. It has full power over all assessments. Complaints concerning assessments, on real or personal property, must be filed before August 1 of each year. Board members should know law, property and people--Litsinger does.
