While much Qf Italy and a tow other parti Of BQrope were moderately civilised, ih*ny of. France's nearer neighbors w$r* mere savages and some of them heathens. Among the latter were the wild Saxons, a brave, lawless race inhabiting Westphalia and Holsteln. Theee Saxons were marauders. As such they disturbed the welfare of Europe. They had rich possessions. As such they roused the cupidity of Europe. Charlemagne discovered that the Saxons were heathen, and set out to convert them, carrying the Bible In one hand and the sword In the other. For thirty-two years off and on the war lasted. He ravaged their country, beating Its defenders. In spite of their fierce resistance, and demanding that they accept Christianity. The bewildered Saxons, falling to grasp the Gospel of Peace when preached with a sword, pretended to submit. Charlemagne then marched his army over the Pyrenees and proceeded to conquer Spain. This he did wttlyrat meeting any serious reverse, until, as he was on his way back, his rear guard, under command of the hero Boland, was ambushed and cut to pieces. Meantime, the moment his back was turned, the Basons had sprung to arms and heathenism once more. Charlemagne returned to the attack and for three decades longer kept up the war. At the end ot that time the Saxons' country was a desert and their best men slain. and consented to be baptised, aban donlng forever their heathen gods. Charlemagne then set out to convert the Norsemen of Scandinavia and the natives of Hungary In like fashion; and, to rescue the Papal states from Mrs. Minnie Miller and son, Theodore, left Tuesday for a motor trip to Champaign, M-» where they will attend the fifty-seventh annual commencement exercises at the Unyvereitfi of Illinois on Wednesday morning. Miss Aiice Miller is a member of the class, composed of 1,600 graduating seniors, who have completed their several years' study at the university. Miss Alice will accompany her mother and brother upon their return to this city the last of the week and will spend the summer at her home here. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered Sunday afternoon by Herbert McComb Moore, D. D., president of Lake Forest College. The senior class day exercises were held Monday morn, ing with Richard G. Finn, Chicago, president of the class presiding. The exercises were opened with an organ number after which H. E. Nelson, Springfield, 111., gave the salutatory. The hatchet oration was given by Lish Whitson, Springfield, and the response by N. A. Glantz, Chicago. An original class poem was read by Robert Henderson, Chicago, and Casil H. Friedman, East Chicago, delivered the valedictory address. ' Hundreds of alumni /were present for the annual alumni reunions during the week, which was brought to a close with the commencement exercises on Wednesday. Miss Miller is to be congratulated upon the completion of her college course and her graduation_»at tills time. mmmm mm-? wmY Exa ITEMS Of IN TAKEN FROM GOLUMin) OF OUR EXCHANGES V*'v * " * 5* la i COLLEGE STUDENTS RETURN FOR SUMMER VACATION With the school term ^rawjjjig to a close at many of the cofie>£es and institutions of learning the young people are returning to their homes for the summer vacation.

In recognition of his prowess l)e was formally crowned tmperor of Rome on Christmas day, $00 A. D It was in his governing rather than In his conquest of other lands that Charlemagne rendered his chief service to progress and humanity; for wherever he conquered he carried education, music, the arts and other modernising Influence*. Hp ,reformed the corrupt mode of ruling then In vogue by dividing off his empire Into districts, each district under the control of a count, who was responsible for Its welfare, and who had subsidiary officials to look after the Interests and safety of the people. He thus Introduced the new "feudal system" of paternal government In place of the old chaotic methods; a system that superseded the semi-lawlessness of the Dark Ages and advanced the world's development along all useful lines. Charlemagne and his reign formed, In fact, the link between the ancient and more modern times; between the out-worn old order and the new order of things which was slowly shaping the earth's deetlny Into Its present mold. The emperor was wise enough to take all that was best In the old system and graft It on the n«w. France, the gre^t nation of later days, came Into existence during this reign, bred by a mingling of ancient civilisation with the hardy and newer Teutonic energy. In 814, at the acme of his glory, Charlemagne died. As usual In such cases, the vast "one-man" empire could not endure Intact after the death of the genius that had built It up. His temporal achievements crumbled away at his death, and had he been merely a conquerer he Would have left no lasting Impression on history. But the education, the religion, the culture and the model government he had Instilled Into his subjects were to live on forever as an eternal monument to their founder and as an un equaled powfe In the wortd's development.

A Nash roadster driven by Francis Luby of Round Lake skidded on tfte wet pavement Tuesday evening of last week, and when the driver attempted to straighten out the car the machine shot across the road and overturned in the lake. Francis was going east in Belvidere road, and when a short distance past the Jackson farm the car slipped off the pavement. Mr. Luby escaped injury, but his car was totally wrecked. Francis Suchomiski, a 14-year-old Chicago boy, missing from that city since Friday night of last week, made his apperance in Richmond the following Monday, after walking the track all the way from the big city. The youngster, who claimed to be 14 years old but appeared considerably younger, slept in the waiting room of the Richmond depot Monday night, having arrived in the village during the day and being noticed as a little stranger here. Elmer Walters, age 63, shot and killed himself at his farm home about six miles west of Harvard and near Chemung, recently, following an attempt to kill his 23-year-old son, Russell. The son had retired early and was sleeping on a couch near his father's bed room. The father, in his attempt to murder his son, just inflicted a slight wound on his son's neck. The boy, at the sound of the shot, jumped from his cot. He at first didn't realize that he was shot and shouted to his father asking who was shooting around the place. Seeing the smoking gun in his father's hand he bolted from the house and ran to the home of a neighbor. Neighbors say that the father had been in an insane condition for the past five weeks following the death of his aunt. The father and son were batching it on the farm. It was a 60-acre farm owned by the father. He also owned another farm in the same vicinity. He had lived all of his life around Harvard.

Mrs. Margaret Smith, 26 years old, a model, was lured to a lonely copse west of Lake Forest one day recently by a supposed artist, was bound to a tree on the pretext that she was to represent an Indian captive about to be burned at the stake, and was then attacked by her employer. After binding her hands to a small sapling, and before accomplishing his purpose, the supposed artist* described as bald, near middle age and wearing gold rimmed spectacles, danced about the helpless young woman and brandished a hatchet before her. Mellody farm, one of Lake County's famous country festates, the forfher home of J. Ogden Armour, was sold recently to a syndicate of wealthy Chicago men headed by John Griffith of Lake Forest of the realty firm of John Griffith & Son.

"Buy it at the Drug Store." That's the place to get quality merchandise that is fairly priced. Your druggist deserves all the patronage you can give him because he is always on the job. His store is the health service staition of your community. Prescription business alone will not support a drug store. Your druggist is obliged to carry thousands of related articles in order that he may operate faithfully through long hours and be able to aarve you when any ftoergency arises. These things are all the professional serviee of any drug store, but the real answer is the Registered Pharmacist. He is the man who . has qualified himself by yeafs of study .and training and / by state examination to fill doctors' prescriptions^ and dispense drugs. The Registered Pharmacist it what makes a Drug Store. & took for this sign.

V. - r - ' S In order to render the needed and vital servio* to 4iis community, the early druggist began to sell other items, closely allied to the drug business. As public demands increased,- the number of related items increased until today in every modern drug store you will find thousands of different articles of drug-store merchandise, t This big stock of varied items is carried for the convenience of the public and makes possible the professional service of pharmacy so that prescriptions and your family recipes can be speedily and accurately filled. It is this service that makes your druggist "more than a merchant." He is a professional man and at the same time a merchant who sells goods of superior quality and value. The ILLINOIS QUALIFIED DRUGGISTS identify their stores with the emblem displayed at Utt 4^^* Let it be your guide for service and satisfaction. " A We are proud of our profession here.
