WlLLBOND GETS
PARK CONTRACT
FOR ONE YEAR
Group Named To Administer
New Police Relief and
Pension Fund

Coach Norm Willbond was Civ.
en- one-year contract as care
taker for Lakexiew Park, and the
state-approved Police Relief and
Pension Fund okayed Tuesday
evening at the regular council
meeting.
To watch over the police pen
sion fund, Councilmen William
Goebel and julius Jensen We're
named by the council, Police Chief
Jack Shelter and Desk Man Boyd
Austin were named by the police
department and the policemen Sc
lected Atty. Oliver True as their
third member. Councilmen Goebel
and Jensen have not named their
third member for the six-man
board.
Under the police pension plan,
four per cent is deducted from the
poicemen's salaries, and one-half
mill is paid by the county. The
city must match this total, and
present police must pay unpaid
balances for as long as they have
been employed. Amounts of pen
sions will be set by the governing
board.
Coach Willbond, who accepted
the caretaker's position at Lake
view Park during an emergency
this summer, was grantad a one
year contract.
Council decided to pay former
caretaker Julius Rosiar 500 in
back salary due him as soon as he
removes his equipment from the
park, such action to be taken with
in 80 days. Willbond will be paid
$50 for working the last quarter
of this year.
Coach Willbond's work at the
park was praised by the council
men and by Tom Finefrock who
lives near the park. During the
voting to grant Willbond a con-
tract, Councilmen Goebel and Eu-
gene Collins passed as they be-
lieved the caretaker's position va
cancy should be advertised so that
others could have an opportunity
to apply. The other councilmen,
Schmitt, Waggoner, Nielsen and
Jensen approved his employment
as of now.
Mr.. Finefrock, representing the
Chamber of Commerce, inquired
about the Zoning Ordinance which
had been discussed for many
months. City Solicitor George
Slaughter said that the present
committee is composed Of Atty.
Oliver True, chairman, Atty. Will
liam Moon, and himself, and that
zoning ordinance simply can't
be written up quickly.
Finefrock was informed that the
city now has temporary build
ing code in effect under which all
construction plans in the city must
be presented to council for ap-
proval before work is started.
In behalf of Vacationland, Mr..
Finefrock thanked the "city fa-
theirs" for the space used by the
information booth in Waterworks
Park during the summer. He said
nearly 5000 persons visited the
booth in it's new location.
Councilman Goebel gave a re-
port of his research into street
repairs and stated that, at pres
ent day prices, the city cannot af-
ford to repair many streets. He
offered an emulsion and stone pro-
cess as method of repairing East
Fifth and State Streets, but the
projects were tabled for further
consideration.
Council authorized Chief of Po-
lice Jack Shelter to purchase six
stop signs; with reflectors, at
$3.50 each. These signs should

THERE ARE TWO ways Of mis-
4 understanding Jesus here. One
wrong line is taken by those who
think Jesus did not mean a word he

orally. They believe that no one
can be true, 100 per cent Chris

Political Prejudice
Equally mischievous with raei-
al prejudice is political or patrlo-
tic prejudice. The time has now
come when narrow national pa
triotisms should be merged in the
wider patriotism whose country is

In formerages hath been said;To
love ones native land is faith, but
the Tongue of Grandeur hath said
in the day of this Manifestation.
Glory is not his who loves his

loves his kind BY these exalted

Territorial Ambition
Many are the wars which have
been fought over pieces OF terri
troy whose possession has been
coveted by two or more rival ma
tons. The greed of possession has
been as fertile cause of strife
among nations as among individ-
ual. According to the Baha'i view,
land rightly belongs not to indiVid-
ual men or individual nations but
TO humanity as a whole; nay, ra-
ther, it belongs to God along, and
all men are but tenants. Abdul
Bahia says:
Land belongs not to one people
but to all people. The earth is not
mans home but his tomb
Universal Language.
Having glanced at the principal
causes of war and how they may
be avoided, we may now proceed
TO examine certain constructive
proposals made by BAHIA u Ian
with view to achieving the Most
Great Peace.
The first deals with the estab-
lishment Of a universal language,
Bahaullah refers to this matter
many times in His writings:
Through the radiance OF Union
have the regions of the world at
all times been illumined, and the
greatest of means thereunto Is
the understanding of one anothers
writing and speech. Ere this, IN
Our Epistles, have We commanded
the Trustees OF the House OF JUS
tce, either to choose one OF the
existing tongues, or to originate
new one, and in like manner 10
adopt a common script teaching
these to the children in all schools
of the world, that the world may
became even as one land and one
home"
About the time when this pro-
posal of Baha'u'llah was flrst
given TO the world, there was porn
in Poland a boy named LudoVic
Zamenhof. who was destined 10
play a leading part in carrying IL
into effect. Almost from his IN
fancy, the ideal of a universal
language became a dominant mo-
tive in Zemenhofs life, and the
result of his devoted labors was
the invention and widespread a.
doption of the language known as
Esperanto, which has now stood
the test of over fifty years ana
has proved to be very satisfac-
tory medium of international IN
tercourse. It has the great adVan-
taee that it can be mastered in
about a twentieth part of the time
required to master such Languages
as English, French or German -

G. HI have been going with
man for about year He said
he wanted us to get married in
a few months. l want to know if
he means it or not or is it just
talk? l want to 60 out west but
he wants me to stay here, get a
i job and help him. What should l
| do?
Ans: He has marrying on his
mind but he hasn't made a deci-
sion TO who the bride" will be.
His main interest at this time i'm to
cajole someone into helping him
out financially. There's no logic
I'm your doing that. As long as you
are single, keep your own money
and handle II as you see fit. After
marriage, II Is expected of couples
10 pool their income not before.
S. CT have been seeing a man
and he says he loves me but my
husband is much better to me
than he is. | am not too pleased do
ing things like this Would you
advise me to stop and live true to
my husband?
Ans: II would be bitter pill for
you TO swallow II your husband
took up this practice, wouldn't it?
He is deserving of the same 10y
atty that you expect. Don't allow
this mans apparent interest in
you 90 to your head it isn't SER
ious. Live true to- your mate and
your conscience will be clear. ......
T. MI am a hard worker. |
save my money and do right un-
til get nice sum ahead then !
will 60 on binge and spree the
whole thing up and it doesn't do
me any good I hate myself when
pull a trick like this.
Ans: Your trCIble is you go for
months without drinking and dur
ing this time you live along. do
not encourage friendship and the
results is you get fed up with
life in general and pitcn binge.
Make friends and begin TO really
live. Next time you get size
able sum of money ahead take
a trip as this has been your secret
ambition fer number of years. You
need social life.

ing BIT, he doesn't make enough
