PHEtRY fUBUC SCHOOL NOTES BASKETBALL GAME OT THE MM TOKOMOW NIGHT SEA The tenth and eleventh grades had a test id English history last Friday. On account of the bad weather there were but a few to witness the games Saturday evening. Having completed the study of the oceans, the physical geography class is taking up the study of the lands. Current events will be discussed this week by Loren Martin, Edward Nick­ els, Ethel Harrison and Julia Freund. The high school has had no visitors this week. Better come before the winter weather sets in and see what we are doing. Do not forget the third number on the lyceyui course, which will be given in the Central opera house Nov. 24 by Byron W. King. The entertainment which the Ihigh school athletic association planned to give the Y. M. C. A. boys proved a complete failure. On Friday the tenth year English class wrote descriptions of a "Barnyard Scene." There were several very in­ teresting sketches. The weather prophets of the phys­ ical geography class were quite aston­ ished at the change in the weather. But never mind, they will be able to prophesy it right after a time. The boys' game was about as rough a one as was ever witnessed in this town. Our boys could easily have won if the regular team had been there. However, the boys that played did finely, considering' the handicap. The members of the high school team this week learned of the death of Norton, a freshman at the Univer­ sity of Illinois. Norton was forward and centre of the Dundee high school basket ball team which played here twiee during the past two seasons. On account of the bad weather Sat­ urday night the basket ball games were not played as advertised. The Division street Y. M. C. A. boys came and played against a "pick up" team consisting of two high school boys, two boys from Hunter's team and one alumni player. The boys from Chica­ go won, 27 to 17. Four sophomores played against four juniors, the latter winning with the score of 25 to 12. The girls of the third room gave their teacher a surprise Wednesday noon in the way of a fruit shower. There were seven little waitresses, each wear­ ing pretty white aprons. The wait­ resses were: Agnes Matthews, Helen Faj, Eva Lauras, Eleanor Whiting, Pearl Payne, Katie Thurlwell and Frances Vycital. The shower was very much enjoyed by all. Miss Knox, the teacher, invited the room to help her eat the fruit. On Friday evening, November IT, the McHenry town team meet the high school team in a basket ball game. Both teams are determined to win and will fight hard for the victory. Capt. Martin feels justified in saying that his team is in perfect condition and he is sure that they can stave off defeat. The line-up of the two teams in all probability will be: Auction Sale! a. A. SATTten, - AUCTIONEER Mr. Sattem is a pujp[l of the famous Carey M. Jones, America's foremost auctioneer.
