Chicago friend recently. The friend informed him that the doctor had died within a few weeks of the time he had set for Smith's death. \ Last Word "Do you think it right to quarrel with one's wife over the telephone?"

Althoff of West McHenry, was graduated from St. Therese School of Nursing at Waukegan Sunday afternoon, June 15, at a service held in the chapel at the hospital. Seventeen girls, two of them belonging to a religious order, were presented with their diplomas. The girls entered the chapel at four o'clock Sunday afternoon, wearing caps and gowns and carrying roses. The twenty priests who followed them took their place in the sanctuary. It was rather fitting that Father Heapey give the address since he eame to Waukegan just three years, at the same time that these girls were entering the training school . The chaplain at the hospital, Father O'Brien, then read off the names of the graduates, and they were given their diplomas by Msgr. Chas. 8.
