Four selections will be given by the freshmen classes, four by the sophomore classes, two or three by the junior classes and a number by the seniors. It is expected this will be one of the finest programs the students of Mallinckrodt have attempt- ed. The students now are being di- rected by Miss Frances B. Pearson, the athletic director, and Sister Alber- tis, principal of the school. The pro- ceeds will be donated to the building fund for the new Mallinckrodt high school.

Art Extension Committee Meets In Chicago Feb. 2-3 Mr. and Mrs. John Western will rep- resent the north shore at the mid-winter meeting of the Art Extension committee of ihe University of Illinois in session this week in Chicago. There will be a tour of various outstanding art cen- ters. Mr. Western is head of the North Shore cemetery at North Chicago. Th Art Extension committee, organ- ized several years ago, without charter, constitution, bylaws or dues, was con- ceived in the mind of Dr. R. E. Hieron- ymus, community advisor at the state university, who promoted the idea of getting in touch with about one hun- dred men and women in various sections of Illinois who are interested in com- muni.y welfare in all its phases. Lorado Taft, the sculptor, is president of the committee. The members meet twice a year. Some time during the summer they assemble at some desig- {| nated point and travel from town to town on a pre-arranged week's tour of Illinois towns, each of which contains some interesting feature which is used continuously fer community betterment.

Mosquito District Board at Work on Abatement Problems At the regular meeting of the board of trustees of the North Shore Mos- quito Abatement district, held last Wednesday night at the Wilmette Village hall, reports were given by the various committees and plans for the solving of the district's problems were discussed. The board of trustees is consider- ably handicapped in getting imme- diately at their problems because of a lack of funds, which will not be avail- able until sometime next spring. In the meantime, however, they are pro- ceeding with the preparation of plans for the actual work to be accom- plished and are clearing up the pre- liminary details that pave the way to actual field operations,--according to William Edwards, district president. Two candidates for thes position of district engineer are being most seri- ously considered from the large list of applicants for the position. The first. of these is Frank W. Miller, as- sistant state etiomologist of the state of New Jersey and field supervisor throughout eleven counties of the state. The second is Major Edward M. Skinner of the Gorgas Memorial association. Both men are nationally known for their "work. It is antici- (pated according to Arthur Stringer, chairman of the committee appointed to select the engineer, that the engi- neer will have been selected and will actually be at work before March 15. Through the auspices of Oscar E. Schmidt, county commissioner, a large barn and two rooms in a house lo- cated in the Forest preserve have been offered for use as permanent headquarters--it was reported by Paul Hoffman of the committee se- lected to make these arrangements. It is considered probable that these buildings, located at Glenview and Harms roads, will be leased by the district. Mrs. Milton M. Cohn of 901 Forest avenue, spent several days of last week in Kansas City, her home before her marriage last year. She returned in time to leave with her husband on Friday, January 27, for New York, where they will stay for three weeks. The trip is one of business for Mr. Cohn. . --0-- Dr. Clarence Loeb of 1054 Tower road, who has been ill for some time, has greatly improved and is now able to sit up. The practice of Dr. Loeb, who is an oculist with an office in Chicago, has been taken over by Dr. Sam Meyer, until Dr. Loeb is able to resume his work. $10.85, $11.85 Evanston So ORIGINAL AND DIFFERENT that Comparisons are Impossible Frankly, The Victory has left current practice so far behind that comparisons are impossible. Conservative drivers will never really discover the car's astonishing resources. They will delight in its pick-up and low gas needs-- its comfort and streamline beauty. But the magnificent, all-day speed of the car--its faultless smoothness over clods and cobbles--are thrills that await the adventurer! Six powerful cylinders are six powerful reasons for this. A seventh vital reason is the basic Victory idea! For the first time in motor car history, chassis and body are a unit. Floor and seats are built in the chassis. The wide Victory chassis frame replaces the customary body sill--and eliminates the cus- tomary body overbang. The body itself has only 8 major parts! The result is 175 less pounds, 330 less parts; standard road and head clearance, yet a car that is extremely low, steady and safe--with a power plant stripped for instant and brilliant action! And the smartest car at the price ever created! 1095 4-DOOR SEDAN, F. O. B.
