It has been the custom during the last three or four years for the Girls' club to 'award a scholarship to some girl graduating from high school who would be unable to put herself through college without some outside financial This year, however, the club has grown even more ambitious, and hopes to help more than one girl through her first college year. At the precent time, the club treasury contains $700, but the members have set $1,000 for this season's goal. With the aid of their funds, they have al- ready purchased an original painting in the school and this season they hope to buy a companion picture to be hung in the front hall. Such enthusiasm and interest has arisen over this project that the sale of tables has progressed rapidly, and 'the girls are very optimistic over the assured success of their venture. All residents of the north shore will 'be welcome guests at this affair. The MacDowell Musical Club of Winnetka met at the home of Mrs. Louis Schmid, 355 Linden, Monday afternoon, April 13.

There is hardly anything in this world that some man can- not make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price only are this man's lawful prey. Better ; optical service is an ideal which can be reached, al- though it is seldom attained. The reason for this is that both patient and optometrist lose sight of the end for which this service was intended, and seek to see how cheaply it can be done. Realizing that Optical Service has a purpose, the securing of better and more comfortable vi- sion, we endeavor to make our services conform to the intended purpose. This effort has made for us an ever increasing clien- tele. 15 years of successful practice Dr. 0. H.
