4 THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1937 Whiskey Willard came down to see me the other day and no doubt Whiskey wasn‘t very much enthused about the idea at all because she wasn‘t feeling any too well to begin with, and then to have to leave home for several days just because she had an itchy back amounted to just about the last straw. Whiskey is a wire fox terrier, all white except for m lot of big black spots and markâ€" ings on her back, or maybe I should say all black with a lot of big white spots. _ Anyway, it doesn‘t make much difference, for it amounts to the same in the end. As I was saying, Whiskey came to be my house guest for about a week, and her skin was all red and inâ€" fiamed and dried up and crusty and itching and hurting likeâ€" nobody‘s business, and Whiskey‘s mother said, "Do something." Naturally, since its my business to "Do sompthing" whenever I can determine what that "somiething" should be, I welcomed Whiskey into the fold and put her to bed right away because she had a fever, though not very much of a one, deciding to take a sample of the scope before putting anything there to stop the itching. Whiskey didn‘t like being put to bed anymore than she enjoyed coming in the first place, and she was grouchy for a couple of hours, but after a while she got sleepy and decided for herâ€" self that bed was the best place after all. The next day, after I had looked for a long time at the cells I had scraped off Whiskey‘s skin and deâ€" cided that there weren‘t any "bugs" there, and after I found that Whiskâ€" ey‘s temperature had gone down during the night and she was feelâ€" ing a lot better, I brought her into the operating room and stood there scratching my head wondering if it would be best to clip off all of the long black hair, that was growing on her back and legs. I knew that Whiskey didn‘t know that maybe her skin would feel better if I did that, because she sat on the table and looked at me as though all the time she was trying to say, "please don‘t give me a haircut. Please don‘t shave off all my fur." Then pretty soon the Big Boss‘ came in and asked me where Whiskâ€" ey was. He didn‘t call her Whiskey Willard, but something else, so I told him I didn‘t know, and right there we had an argument, for all the time the Big Boss claimed that the Whiskey he was talking about was sitting there on the table takâ€" ing it all in and sort of laughing between her teeth, while I claimed I had been looking at Whiskey Wilâ€" lard. The Big Boss finally won the argument, which was a sore in favor of Whiskey. How was I to know that when Whiskey‘s mother changed her name, Whiskey changed hers‘ too? But then, I suppose that wire fox terriers have the same rights and privileges as humans, particularly wire fox terriers like Whiskey. Anyhow, I decided not to clip off all the nice black and white hair, which gratified Whiskey a great deal. I could tell that by the way she looked up at me and wagged her tail. I think she even felt sorry for the KIDS! ASK FOR AN ADTAKER You can make it possible for some ones kiddies to be happy this Christmas . . . HERE‘S HOW â€" Look wagon, train or other toys fotgotten by your children. about your home, maybe in the closet or down in the them at a reasonable price happy?

Even after that, though, Whiskey was mad at me for a long time after I covered ber back and legs with a special kind of oil and kept rubbing it in every day, although she did enâ€" joy having her back and her ears scratched, which came at the end of every treatment. All in all, the week really passed by quite rapidly for both Wahiskey and me, and it seemed only a couple of days before Charlie had her all covered with soapy suds so that she looked just like a great big snowball, and then rolled her up in the great big rough towel that is reserved especially for wire fox terâ€" riers like Whiskey. And yes, I think she was even sorry to leave me, because she wagged "boodâ€"bye" as the Big Boss was carrying her out to the car and she turned around and looked at me through the window as they were driving out of the driveway. I heard her mumbling to Blondie, the Aucaker Dpalidl, qust Delure anc icll, and that her skin was just as nice and soft as the new long, white dress that her mother had worn the day she changed her name. November Building Drops to $48,870 Dropping considerably from the preceding month‘s total, construcâ€" tion valuation in Highland Park during November amounted to only $48,870. + =~ This was a decline of $176,206 from the sensational figure of $225,â€" 076 set during October when Highâ€" land Park led the suburban area in building. During that month a permit was issued for an apartment house to cost $120,000. In November 1936 the total was $208,821. Building officials said toâ€" day that a "wave of new home construction" is expected after Jan. The accumulated value of buildâ€" ing in Highland Park for the first 11 months of this year is $1,811,900, compared with $1,576,633 for the corresponding period in 1936. Six of the eight permits issued during November were for new dwellings. Included among them was one issued to Roy Olson for a $20,â€" 000 residence to be built at 2737 Deerpark drive. Interâ€"Club Christmas Party An outstanding holiday event at the YWCA is the Annual Allâ€"Club Christmas party including the Pi Delta, B.

Mr. Bradley graduated from Princeton university in 1884 and came to Hllinois about 1894 to beâ€" come the leader of the Episcopal choir in Riverside, Ill. In 1895 he conceived the idea of bringing his choir boys to summer camp at the present site of Allendale. This he did for two years. Then he decided to give other boys an opportunity to come to Allendale, and they wanted to stay over the winter as well as the summer. Thus, in 1897, the school was incorporated. Mr. Bradley was active head of the institution until 1934 when he retired. Since then he had spent his winters in California where he had just built a small home in Santa Barbara. His summers were spent at Allendale. The present head of the school is Raymond A. Thompâ€" son, who describes himself as one of "Mr. Bradley‘s boys." D. A. R. BETTER FILMS REVIEW were no children.
