Children Exhibit Things Made in Vacation Season "What worthwhile things did you make during your vacation?" This question was answered at the North Shore Country Day school on Friday when the annual "Vacation Fair" was held in the gymnasium from 1 to 3:30 o'clock. The children bring their mounted flowers, their stamp, butter- fly and coin collections, interesting accounts of travels they have made, pictures they have painted, dresses, boats, toys, models, and other things, the work of their own hands. The exhibits are of three sorts: those made by the children absolutely alone, those made by the children with some help from..camp counsellor 'or parent, and those made by parents and children together as a joint project. Besides these results of summer interests, there is always a separate section of the "Vacation Fair" devoted to the display of cherished pets, birds, chick- ens, rabbits, kittens, and of course, dogs. The fair is always fun but, most of all, it is inspiring because of the wide interests it shows up and the ideas it passes from one child to another for future vacations. RETURNS FROM EAST Rev. James Austin Richards, of 739 Lincoln avenue, returned Thursday from a short business trip to New York, in the interests of the missionary boards of the Congregational churches of the United States.

This time it is a trained seal which plays the title role in "Galloping Fish," the uproarious comedy special which will be shown at Community House, Tuesday, October 7. One picture critic says of "Galop- ing Fish": "Every time we remember that fool seal galloping across a crowded street after a fish wagon; tearing on a lope through the lobby of a smart hotel pursued by a timid, panting little man in an agony of embarrass- ment; romping through a flood with that same sad little chap tangled up in a rope that was attached to the seal, we must roar with laughter." On Friday, October 10, "Triumph" will be the feature picture. This was produced by Cecil B. DeMille and is his first offering since "The Ten Com- mandments." "Triumph" is the story of a girl (Leatrice Joy) and two men who love her. The girl starts as a humble fac- tory forelady and becomes a famous opera singer with two worlds at her feet. And yet wealth and fame are not enough until-- Fate tumbles one man (Rod La Rocque) from a millionaire's fortune to a park bench. Fate sweeps the other man (Victor Varconi) from overalls to a limousine and perfumed pajamas. And through their vicis- situdes of fortune, one thing remains constant--their love for the girl and the intense rivalry between them. Upon which lover does Fate finally smile? And what of the girl? Be sure and see it! Finds City Manager Plan Success in Many Towns Village Manager H. L.

At the Montreal convention the dis- cussions concerned, chiefly, the best methods to be employed in working out the problems of village govern- ment. Prominent speakers and authorities on municipal government in Canada and the United States at- tended the sessions. The city man- ager of Cleveland, Ohio, which is the largest municipality having the man- ager plan, told the visiting managers how that city of 900,000 inhabitants operates effectively under that plan. iW ooo he, earnestly, into the phone: *CANTI L-E-V-E-R «eo» NAVE YOU goc that? ..... that's right, Cantilever Shoe! ...
