years? Just think how far ad-
vanced this Village would have
been.
Mr.. Smith has to resort to
lies because he is never able to
get the true picture of anything
before he jumps to conclusions.
It seems that when he wants
information he will write his
own version first and then wait
for Mr. Maxey's reply. But Mr..
Smith, you don't have to do
that. All you have to do Is
make an appointment with Max
ey and he will give you a lesson
in Village Government. I know
that you have been accustomed
to being led by a third grade
scholar, and Il lie that it is
rejecting on you, however, Max
ey is your President he will
give you information, if you
want it. You don't have to be
ashamed at all because Max
ey is giving information and
advice to over half of the peo-
| pie in the Village in some form
or fashion, and is very proud
to be able to do so.
l realize that Mr.. Smith is
| jealous because Herman Davis
was appointed to fiji the vacan-
cy left by one of our Trustees
but it was our opinion, Mr..
Smith, that Herman Davis is
more qualified than you.
E!Misinformed seems to the
I'word in Mr.. Smiths life. You
mention Mrs. Selmon's case. /
would like to inform you that
there was never a court hearing
in Mrs. Selmon's case. Five
Trustees simply agreed that
Mrs. Selmon should be paid and
that was all that was necessary.
So far as mfr. Maxey is con-
cerned Mrs. Selmon didn't quail
lily for the job and MIR. Maxey
hasn't changed his thinking in
this case.
Mr.. Smith also mentioned that
business man was picked up
for failure to have a license to
operate and that he produced a
cancelled check for 100000.
This is another case where Mr..
Smith talked without any sub
stantial information. But since
he wants information, 1 will
give 1t to him. The charge. Mr..
Smith, was failing to put vend.
ing license on vending machines.
It doesn't matter whether a bus
mess man has bought a license
or not. The law requires that
license be put on display Just
like your automobile license

Pres. Mazey Answers
Slurs Of Spotlight

In last weeks issue of the
Eagle, Mr.. Marion L. Smith,
1--WE have from good authority
wrote concerning a few things
pertaining to- the Village. Of
course, MIR. Smith can't write
anything about himself because
there just isn't anything good to
write. However, Mr.. Smith
should know, by this time, that
nobody is interested in him and
his fight to prevent the progress
of Robbins because Robbins
will progress in spite of Mr..
Smith. Someone should inform
EGr. Smith that Maxey was elect
ed to the Presidency of Rob
gins because of his background
and background and record are
the principles by which one is
elected. ] wonder if Marion J..
Smith could qualify on either?
I enjoy Mr.. Smith giving me
free publicity; but I wonder
when he will wake up and find
that he cannot build himself up
to the public by trying to de-
grade me? He's like a WORKOUT
record always repeating the
same thing, over and over.
.Maxey does not brag about
what he does in bringing pro-
gress to the Village, however
don't mind admitting to that
progress when someone else
mentions it.
I never expect Mr.. Smith to
say anything good about the
Maxey administration, because
he isn't a part of it-and he is
just plain jealous. However, MIR.
Smith, the Maxey administra-
ton put the progress where
everyone can see it, therefore
nobody can deny it's presence.
/ believe that I know how you
feel, Mr.. Smith when you see
lights, sidewalks, Village Hall,
or the FIRE house being built in
Robbins. 1t doesn't give you
much encouragement, since you
oppose everything progressive
that happens in Robbins. 1t
must be very hard to face those
people that you have so often
told that these things wouldn't
happen under the Maxey adj
ministration, yet every week
something progressive happens
right under your eyes. It's very
tough for you, Mr.. Smith, but
Maxey's only ambition is to con-
tinue the progress of this Viii
lage.

at home instead of on your car,
then you are violating the law.
1t seems that the ICP is hard
up for publicity; SO that they
use a Wake to publicize their

P.S. Mr.. Smith, if it comes

YOU would be their man? Ha,
