You Can. Depend
On Your NeighbOrS
BY HOLLAND,

TO whom do you appeal for
n help in time of trouble
or sickness? On whom would
you depend if dread misfor-
tune laid its heavy hand on
you? Your neighbors? Ex-
actly.
Man is gregarious animal,
and he naturally cares for
relatives, friends and &C.
quaintances rather than
strangers. Social affairs de-
pend entirely on acquaint-
anceship, and business affairs
are controlled to large extent
by the same element. 1t
would be better if business
and friendship were still more
closely linked.
If you would depend on
your neighbors in time of ad-
versity why not depend on
them in prosperity? Isn't the
man whose hand you would
like to grasp the man to
whom you ought to hand the
dollar that you have to
spend? Why send it away to
a mail order house which
would be interested in a
death in your family merely
because it offered a possible
chance to sell you a tomb
stone or a Grape band for
your hat?
You know your neighbors
are reliable, that they can
be depended on, that they
would come to your aid with
sympathy or material help
should the occasion arise.
Then why not show that you
appreciate their good quail
ties by doing business with
them regularly and as a mat
ter Of habit? They know you
and are interested in you.
The mail order man is mere
ly interested in getting your
money, and that in advance.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER IS. 1918.
FOR A CONSTITUTIONAL coNveN.
TON.

The Citizens Association Of Chi.
cago lie on the right track In advocat.
ing q revision Of our State Constitu.
ton. The annual report Of the associ.
alton. Just issued, says:
Last December our Executive Com.
mittee adopted resolutions favoring
the calling Of a convention to revise
the Constitution Of Illinois and tried
to promote discussion Of the matter.
In June. when II had become apparent
that the Legislature would not vote
to submit to the people any OF the
constitutional amendments which had
been proposed, We made an eleventh.
hour effort to induce the members Of
the House to pass the Joint resolution
for q constitutional convention which
had already been adopted by the Sen.
ate under the leadership Of Senator
Curtis. In spite of the confusion con.
nected with the last night Of the ses.
sion and the large number Of alb.
sentees, this resolution received
eighty votes in the House.
1T 10 universally admitted that the
present Constitution Of Illinois, adopt.
ed forty.three years ago. has long
been outgrown: and that the slow and
difiicult process required to amend 1t
has for many years seriously retarded
the progress of the people Of the State
by deprivirg them Of the power to
properly meet new governmental
needs arising from the changed condi.
lions. The accumulated evils arising
from this situation have now become
so numerous and acute that adequate
relief can be obtained only by revising
the Constitution In such a way that It
will cease to be hindrance to good
government. Such necessary reforms
as the abolition of the system Of mi
nority representation In the Legisla'
ture: revision of the texation system :
consolidation Of local governing and
taxing bodies: and reduction In the
number of elective officers can only be
secured without intolerable delay by
undermining the State Constitution
Adequate powers Of home rule fol
Chicago can also best be secured by
this Statewide method.
For forty years proposed amend
ments have killed each other Off. One
third of the membership Of either
house has been able effectually to
block any desired change in the Con
stituton. The irksome restrictions
imposed by the present Constitution
bear down upon Chicago with almost
crushing force. Because Of them Chi
cago is compelled to maintain. at 9
vast unnecessary expense, three sep
arate and distinct governmental
bodies covering practically the same
territory; viz: the City, County and
Sanitary District. In our opinion the
time 10 ripe now for holding . Con
stitutionai Convention In Illinois a
the best means Of affordins adequate
relief to the people Of the City and
State. At the next session Of the Leg
islature we will do everything In ou'
power to bring about the calling Of
such a Convention, which this Asso
citation has favored for many years.
