FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1923 A GENTLEMANLY PROTEST Right here, we gentlemen de- sire to protest. Whenever there's going to be a style show, live models, and so forth, there's al- ways something about "Ladies ~tmiy^¥J-~A1Ntf-mcTT allow^dr^^sofne^ thing just like that. We're get- ing tired of it, and we're going to tell you why. We're going to ,show up this "real, live models" stuff. Right away we want to say that we have no desire to sneak into any "style show." Make it as public as you want to. We wouldn't go in, if you begged us on bended knee or paid us to come in. We know who writes those things about corsetry and ready- to-wear garments. We've figured it all out. It's always some woman^I]^$n!t „ au^man^aa -hoit- l:st-to-goodness he-man, unless he's trying to imitate his wife or some other lady. No sir, it's a woman. And we know why, too. Women may think they're pretty cute, but it takes a man to see right straight through them. They can fool other women, but not a real man. Here's why they doit, They're trying to make themselves be- lieve that men want to look into those shows. Deep stuff! They're a sly lot, those women. They're really afraid that men don't care two cents about those things. So they get up something about men not being allowed, expecting that men will get curious. Then the women will have the upper hand again and feel happy. It's the old Bluebeard story turned around: Tell them they mustn't and they'll want to all the more. Say, ladies, the Loop is full of Jheatres--that give--straws ^riat beat "real, live models" all hol- low. Keep your "style shows S" NORTH SHORE PLAYERS There is no pleasure with so enjoyable a flavor as that which wide experience in the field of municipal illumination, is an ex- cellent choice. The use of college trained men in civic enterprises is a hopeful sign. Our cities, town's, and vil- lages need, and ought to have, all the help that the schools can give. It is certainly appropriate, more- over, that the university of a state should offer to the munici- palities of that state expert engi- neering knowledge and skill. Wilmette is bound to be bene- fited by Professor Knight's serv- ices. Our town has a right to ex- pect that the lighting system which he helps to work out will be scientifically right. Not a cent should be spent on manufacture and installation of light until the plans are as perfect as possible. t!J5? 7&* Mr. Home-Builder Q HI-Y GIRLS AND BOYS The entrance and growth of these associations in the high schools is good for the boys and girls. The influences exerted will ninTierxra^aTid^whoIesome. Thej|J religious, cultural, and athletic results will make for a more ef- fective and a more real democ- racy in later years. We expect that the Hi-Y con- ference, of March 16 and 17 will be well attended and bristling with enthusiasm^ -- -_______________ MILAN LUSK, VIOLINIST The offer of Milan Lusk to do- nate his services in a recital for the benefit of the National Kin- dergarten College campaign fund is timely and generous. We hope that his action will be the first of many similar, We^ -cannot value too highly the coming of this college to the north shore, and so anything we carr-do to help will forward a fine cause. The Public Forum SAVE THE CASH VALUE! One of the big and most menacing problems of the present day that the life insurance companies and the field agents must cope with is the tendency to surrender paid-up policies for cash, at the end of the premium-paying per- iod or later. This tendency is particu- larly serious as it affects the tyest in- terest of the isttred and his depend- ents. The temptation to withdraw cash values in appreciable amounts because of "attractive" investments, which at the time appear very favorable and secure, is doubt- less the cause of many sur- renders. Some agents have gone so far as to recommend to old policy holders that they cash m their old policies, invest the proceeds and buy new insurance, using the interest re- turn on such investments toward pay- jngJthe-premium-on the new policy. This practice strikes at the very heart of the principle of life insurance" and it is time for a concerted move- ment to save such protection as a life insurance policy affords.

To put it briefly, it's great fun to be amused and to be amusing at one and the ||anie time. One may feel a little uneasy when all the profit seems to be coming towards one or go- ing in the opposite direction. But when it has a reciprocal motion, #"AHy right with the world." ||| To apply this idea concretely: ^tou'll be getting- more than you : usually get for your money if ; you see "Three Live Ghosts" at r the Byron G.

The urge of the higher interest rate is apt to be like the call of the siren# luring to destruction, for the funds* once removed are liable to be buffeted about from one investment to another until an unfortunate choice wipes them out or they become dissipated through manipulation. If the insured is not ^satisfied^to leave his money with the insurance company to give sure, conservative protection, equal to that of a Govern- ment bond, it jjl not necessary that the funds be withdrawn in order to provide an attractive investment. The application of the cash value to the purchase of an annuity under one of the options provided in the policy is permissable in amounts of $1,000 or more. Payments may be made monthly, if desired, or the principal may be left intact for^a specified num- ber of years, to be then paid as di- rected^and agreed, yeilding on the present basis 4% %■'•',of which 3% is absolutely guaranteed. This conserv- ing of the. funds at a fair rate of in- terest should appeal strongly to all thinking persons, because of the ab- solute security* of the principal.
