Rebert W. &‘: Rditor Gladys Udell, evertising Even at this late date, with the thermometer shooting in the high nineties, and the only cool spot we can think of located about 100 yards off the beach, our thought turns occasionally to a certain civic remissness occurring much earlier in the year. Communieations intended for publication must be written on one side of the paper oniy wmm-â€"u.«.â€"annfl. n-.w-‘hm y noon to insure appesrance in current issue, & Every time we poke our head up in the attic, or duck down in the basement to find that other fly rod, we shudder involunâ€" tarily at the accumulated debris, dirt, refuse and odds and ends left over from a hnrq;:inur. How come? we ruminate someâ€" what absently as we paw through the mess in our search. It wasn‘t like this last summer.© Or the summer before. Is the missus losing her touch? â€" Or are we just getling fussy in our advanced age? â€" . With a sudden blinding flash of illumination comes the soluâ€" tion! There was no "CLEAN UP DAY" this year! Remember in the good old days (last year) when we gathered up all the old stuff we didn‘t wantâ€"all the accumulation from the winter and the long sieges when the kids played in the house, and the time we decided to build a duck boat in the basementâ€"and piled it up on the front lawn? It was a grand chance to get rid of a lot of stuff just by piling it some place handy to the street. Because, on‘the appointed day along came the city truck and carted it away. ‘‘Elephant Boy," Alexander Korâ€" da‘s film version of Rudyard Kipâ€" ling‘s "Toomai of the Elephants," comes to the Deerpath theater, Friâ€" day and Saturday, Aug. 20 and 21. Great system, eh? The attic was cleared, the basement comparatively tidy, the yard cleaned up. Everything was disâ€" posed of quickly and cleanlyâ€"no smoke or mess of burning things, or taking them out in the family limousine to dump behind the nearest billboard. It was an example, of pretty neat civic coâ€"operation we thought. And then this year we slipped up. The City Fathers must have become so involved, in their checker tournament that "CLEAN UP" slipped their minds. We suggest a CLEAN UP DAY this year before we start digging in for the winter. Let‘s have a fall house cleaning, appoint a day, accumulate the grandest collection of junk of any city three times our size, pile it all: on the parking strip, and then cheer lustily as the city wagon carts it off to the dump. "Elephant Boy" at Deerpath Theatre Filmed in the course of a twoâ€" year expedition into the heart of the Indian jungles, "Elephant Boy" is described as one of the most thrillâ€" ing natural background pictures ever to reach the screen. The picture introduces a new type of screen team in Sabu, the handsome 12â€"year old native Indian boy who plays the title role, and Iravatha, who is said to be the world‘s largest elephant. We bet we would decide afterwards that Highland Park is REALLY a good place in which to live. With three of the strongest perâ€" sonalities of the modern screenâ€" Bette Davis, Edward G. Robinson, and Humphrey Bogartâ€"heading the cast,."Kid Galahad," a drama of the fight ring, comes to the Deerpath theater, Sunday, Monday and Tuesâ€" day, Aug. 22, 23 and 24. Made from a best selling novel by Francis Wallace, which also ran in serial form in a national magazine, "Kid Galahad" has a yery potent story, .woven into a background of the sporting world. 3 "Woman Chases Man," Samuel Goldwyn‘s hilarious film comedy, bring Miriam Hopkins, Joel McCrea, Charles Winninger, Erik Rhodes and a great cast to the Deerpath theater for two days beginning Wednesday, August 25. Ella Logan, Leona Maricle and Broderick Crawford are also promâ€" inently featured in this story of a girl who chased a man from pillar to post to get him to sign a conâ€" tract, ‘got involved in a series of sideâ€"splitting situations, and wound up by landing his name on the siotted lineâ€"of a marriage license! Dorcas Home Boys Tie Lions Club in Baseball Game The annual baseball game beâ€" tween the Highland Park Lions‘ elub and the boys of the Doreas home in Deerfield, ended in a tie for the teams, the game being called on account of darkness. The boys gave their elders a hard fought game. . The youngsters were treated to ice cream, cake and pop, and did they do justice to the â€" ‘The Lions club were then enterâ€" tained by the children with a proâ€" gram and viewed the new hospital which has recently been installed at the home.

SOBEY‘S TEN YEARS AGO August 18, 1927 19¢ CUBE STEAKS RIB LAMB CHOPS SLICED HAM â€" to fry BEEF LIVER Young Steer POTATO SALAD BEEF POT ROAST Armour‘s Cloverbloom BUTTER Lions Play Golf with Rotary at Sunset, Wednesday On Wednesday, August 18, the much talkedâ€"of golf tournament was played between the Rotary club and the Lions club. They teed off at 1:30 o‘clock p.m. in the afternoon. There had been much friendly banâ€" tering back and forth among the members of the two clubs in regard to who would win the tournament. Members of the Lions club claimed to have several "crack" players proâ€" viding the Rotarians with plenty of competition. Since Ernest Belmont won the beautiful trophy at the Inâ€" ternational Lions Convention at Olympia fields, and at the same time Paul Olson won the handicap match, the odds seemed to favor the Lions, but Art Olson is a local "champeen" and is almost a golf team by himâ€" self. He has been champion several times at the Sunset Valley Golf elllb.J and last year won the Elks hum&-‘ ment. . Ed â€" Menke is "no mean player," and Frank Whitlock "shoots a good stick." Then there is that famous fourâ€"some to be eouid;fi! that is always seen together: Lew Sinclair, Joe Garnett, Doc Rossiter and Doc Niéchols _ The Tinm«‘ elub whallenged the Rotary club to the golf tournament, but coincidentally, the Rotarians challenged the Lions to the softball game. It might seem that if the Lions should beat the Rotarians at golf that the Rotarâ€" ians would hold the honors even by beating the Lions in the softball game. All those members who were not engaged in the tournament took part in the softball game. : In the evening a buffet supper and refreshments were served, after which the golf prizes were awarded. Aâ€"fullâ€"accountâ€"of theâ€"tournament will appear in next week‘s issue of the Press. ' Large Attendance at Firemen‘s Picnic Games with prizes, provided the entertainment for the afternoon, while in the evening dancing was enjoyed. Al Murphy was chairman of the outing which was planned to provide funds for the voluntary fire company. M Better than 900 persons attended the annual picnic of the Highwood Fire department at Santi Grove last Sunday.
