WEST SIDEIJ^^______-- Workmen have been busy the last few weeks beautifying the new west side park. In;afew weeks It will be transformed into one of VtJheJb<»u^^ the ad- :.^nceineh^r;i^i:Seciion and the aim of the residents of that part of town to keep abreast with the times. In a few short years we predict that no division line will mark any section of Wilmette. At least that is what the progressive citizens of the village are hoping to see. Why a distinction between high class .property ott either side of thejiUji^eadjba^ to be a trifle nearer the fake front? Let's havejLa_ujyfdjini^yJllage is which every single resi- dent will have the interest of the entire village at heart. . A public demonstration, such as was conducted in thef Tittle vil- lage of Kehilworth a week ago last Sunday when a handsome forty- foot American flag was hoisted between two large elm trees by the -school cljildren^wliere it will remain until the Mexican trouble 13 settled, demonstrates that the residents of that community are loyal and^patriotic Americans,r Instilling the4patriotie spirit in the hearts .of the group of children assembled for the occasion, was,one of the most worthy acts that could have been done by the family heads. Other north shore towns and villages would do well to follow the example set'by the Kenilworth folk. „. _Tlte eventJwas one Urag^<*be remembered by the villagers. Old and young alike participated in the affair and in years to come the younger generation can point to the occasion as one in which the truest and most earnest motives predominated. At the annual parish meeting, held in the parish house on Friday evening. May 8, reports of the various depart- ments of parish work were read, show- ing the affairs of the parish in a 'sat- isfactory condition. The following were elected to serve as wardens and vestrymen for the ensuing year: Se- nior warden, P. M. Bingham; junior warden, O. T. Dyer; vestrymen, Dr. D. Brower, Messrs. H. V.

Mats.Thura.wuiSt»t..2:15-n TA "HOME'TUSTICEr^ It is with much satisfaction that the citizens of Wilmette wel- come a "home", justice of the peace. By that we mean a justice who . spends practically all of his time in the village. Such an official is justice E. P. Dunshee, who assumed his duties as successor to Frank Pavlikj Jr., this week. ' Heretofore Wilmette citizens who have sought the services of a justice of peace have been forced to wait until evening when these officials, who artv in business in the city of Chicago, return to Wil- mette or to meet them before they started to their day's work early 3h the morning. Then,' too, the absence of these officials from the village during the day was a severe handicap upon the local authori- ties. "Mahy times persons arrested for speeding have been taken eitherto Evanston-or--Winnctka for arraignment-because no justice was available here. Also in other matters, where warrants were necessary, the officers have been forced to wait for the return of the justices and oftentimes have been hindered in checking law viola- tions on this score. S^fUCH e^LIGEBrUNCLE SAM. % Small favors are thankfully received, especially when they relate j; to public service. Last week word was received from J he postoffice authorities in'Washington, D. C, at the local postoffice that an ad- ditional carrier could be named for Wilmette. The appointment was ifffomed lately made and the new postman ...entered upon his duties £d*fay -i.'" " •-•..,,- : ", For some time the half dozen carriers at the local postoffice have , been imposed upon. Futile attempts were made by these earnest public servants to deliver their allotment of mail on schedule lime, but the great increase of number of pieces of mail both of first and Second class matter made it impossible. Finally a plea was made to :Jhe postoffice officials with a statement of facts concerning the badly congested conditions in the local office. This plea brought about the ^iwreaTSic=;dT~tTie~W of one carrier. i Wilmette, a growing community of more than 8.000 souls, needs the services of even more than seven postmen. That is less than one ftdar thousand inhabitants, and withTthe territory extending many ^blocks, these workers have all sorts of troubles plodding through all kinds of weather to deliver their parcels. Then bear with the post- .irian a while longer if your mail delivery service is not just quite what it should, be. Don't blame this overworked individual for con- ditions over which he has no control. He is doing his best. Per- haps in a few, months another carrier may be allotted Wilmette and ,theri the mail-congested postoffice will be relieved to a great extent. ItpPOIlT SHOWS GROWTH. ;"The progress at the Wilmette Pub- Hc library during the last year is more satisfactory' than in previous years and the interest is shown by the larger circulation and attendance." '"'■:Such was the-foreword in the thir- teenth annual report of Miss Anna E. Law, librarian at the'Wilmette Public Horary;,^recently: submitted to the board of dIrectors e14hat institution and published in full in this paper last %'^^%:.:I%'-^..Jl^e\Y^WtMlilnE to the citizens who have taken an active in- terest in the affairs of the institution to note that during the last twelve : months interest has been greatly Btlm iUated among book borrowers. During that time a total of almost 1,600 more -books have been borrowed from the li- brary than in the year previous. y■;■;-iThe attendance, daily, at the library -his Increased during the last year. Especially is this true in the children's departments, one of the most Interest- jog sections of the Institution^ The little folk of Wilmette have fairly jlecked to the library ahd there have eagerly" deVouTed^tlre contents OF the pretty story and picturo books to the full extent of their childish concep- tion. As an example of this eagerness Mies Law points out that the boys have completely worn out several vol- lanes Of boy's stories by constant hsndirhg, Mrs, Emma Boduie In an article re- cently contributed to this paper, all parents should" see that their children take advantage ot the oppoitunU&»f< ^rded^henrte-borrowtns"gon^cwalr there Is no lack of interest in the af- ;-|g»ks to readT Already the section for itini-chlhlreit is, popular b¥ L there1^*^ matna room f 0 r mo re patronage.- En^ courago your child tosreaci the interest- ing books which can he procured at the library and thus nip in the bud any chance of his reading cheap and trashy literature. One other feature of the public li- brary here is the splendid variety of works of fiction, which is to be found on the shelves each month, for grown- ups. A standing order has been placed with a prominent publishing firm to supply the library here with fifteen volumes each month, of the best ra- tion. This is surely a feature worth while, one seldom offered in public li- braries outside of cities three or four times as large as Wilmette. Patronize the library and lend your support to Miss Law and tiro directors in their efforts to give this community one of the best libraries along the north shore. -": - * Jr. -H DISPLAY OF PATRIOTISM.
