"The Ninth Guest" Promises Thrills Galore for Oct. 21 There is something brewing. And it will reach that precise point where it bubbles over with exciteâ€" ment and thrill when the curtain lifts on the first act of the "Ninth Guest," Friday evening, Oct. 21, at the Deerfield Grammar school, when the Stagers are seen for the first time in this latest surprise mystery drama by Owen Davis. The Stagers, Deerfield dramatic society, held a barn dance at the Robinson barn on Ridge road on Saturday evening. Just who is the "ninth" guest, you may well ask. Ah, it is not the function of this newspaper to give away advance information on a question that is certain to puzzle theatregoers. But this much can be told without fear of delection by the censor. Eight people are summoned to‘a party at a penthouse apartâ€" ment atop a fifteen story building. All are promised a party and an evening that is unique, unusual and original, but no mention is made as to who the host will be. One by one the guests arrive, only to find that every other guest present is his or her moral enemy. When the 8th and final guest arrives a voice booms out from the mysterious nowhere and they are told to expect one more. It is Death that will furnish them with entertainment and enact the part of host. It is believed that the local theaâ€" tregoers like thrills. It is also beâ€" lieved that "The Ninth Guest" beâ€" gins its thrills where all other mysâ€" tery thrillers ends. Well the perâ€" formance at the Deerfield Grammar school will prove it and The Stagers will do the proving. : "I found it so engrossing that I «departed without my goloshes."â€" Chas. Collins, Chicago Tribune. What would you do were you to find yourself one of this party. Try to escape, naturally and that is what all eight try to do, but they find themselves cut ‘off from the â€"easld and na moans af seottine down to the street ‘below. Anu tnen uney found the ninth guest was already with them as death took one after another.

HOWARD MORAN Plumbing and Heating Prepared Are Fine Mounted Trophies by Jim Mooney Game heads, birds and fish that you wish to have preserved by a taxidermist should be carefully hanâ€" dled in the field, Personal expeâ€" riences have proven that a few minâ€" utes of preparation will mean a saving of time and money when you have your trophies mounted. When your prize bird is taken, plug the throat and nostrils with cotton. Putting .m small amount of borax on the cotton before this is done will dry any moisture or blood that may have a tendency to flow on the feathers. If the bird is extremely bloody a small amount of corn meal and borax put on the blood covered feathers will aid greatly in its removal. Blood often stains and discolors light colored feathers. Ducks, geese, pheasants and othâ€" er game birds that you may wish to have mounted should be adult birds. The young have pin feathâ€" ers or short ones that make the completed mount appear to be thin and unshapely." . Your next step will be to form a cone with a double sheet of newsâ€" paper that you can easily carry in the back of your hunting coat. Straighten the feathers to a normal position. Grasp the bird by the feet and put it into the cone head downward. Fold the paper at the bill and tail feather tip. This will keep the feathers clean and act as a protection as they are easily brokâ€" en. Keep the birds cool and back downward. The first place the feaâ€" thers slip is on the under side due to a gastric acid and the fatty conâ€" dition of that part of most bird and animal bodies. Animals can be cared for by usâ€" ing cotton to plug the mouth and nostrils putting a small amount of cotton and borax in bullet holes will aid greatly. Never break the skull of a small animal or the legs bonesâ€"this makes it very hard to get a fine natural position even by the best taxidermists. If you contemplate having some of this work done my advice is to carry a small bottle of 20 mule team borax, a bit of cottoin and if you wish to be extra careful carry a litâ€" tle cornmeal. Deer heads are often ruined by cutting the neck too short. If you wish to have a fine trophy cut the neck near the front shoulder and it will make an excellent mount. If you skin out the head be sure the antlers are attached to the skull, ears skinned, lips split and all the extra fat and flesh removed; this is most important in keeping the hair intact. Remember that deer hair is hollow and it breaks when dry, so act accordingly. Salt a heavy hide, rub it in well. Never wrap a pelt in paper, it will heat and get what is known as grease burn; this will ruin the skin. Bear hides should have the feet and head attached, skin out the toes and remove all the fat; this will make your rug more complete. Fish are hard to keep as you know. My advice is keep them cold and ship immediately. If you can be careful, open the body on the side ,between the belly and back, then remove the body through this side opening; it is a touchy task as you can readily break the scales. 148 South Second Street ‘Tel.

Read The Wantâ€"Ads ‘The First National Bank NO SIT DOWN STRIKE THE PRESS About so often, we hear on the street corner and are told in newspaper and magazine articles, that the bankers of this counâ€" try have engaged in a sit down strike in the matter of loaning the bank‘s funds. ' Strange to say, just about the contrary is true. Never before in the writer‘s experience, was the demand for commercial and collateral loans at the present low ebb. Never before, have inâ€" terest rates been so attractive to the borrower. Not unlike most banking institutions, this bank is seeking and encouraging loans that are safe, sound and liquid, and loans that comply with the provisions of the banking laws and the réâ€" quirements of the supervising authorities. Proceeds of Musical to Provide Students with Opera Seats The young artists who participate in these musicales possess marked ability and genuine promise. Many are seasoned performers. Conseâ€" The Chicago Opera Luncheon elub is sponsoring another in a seâ€" ries of eventful musicales. The proceeds of these are to be devoted to the purchase of a box for eight young people and a chaperone on each Thursday evening of the Grand Opera season of six consecutive weeks commencing October 29. As a result of similar activities the preâ€" vious year the Highland Park High school was enabled to send students with a musical bent to the opera each Thursday night throughout the season last winter.
