Highland Park‘s North Shore Yacht Club sets the date of Thursday eveâ€" ning, April 17th for the official openâ€" ing of spring activity. By then many boats will be completely reconditionâ€" ed, but to encourage the tardy ones and to arouse the less hardy among the membership who don‘t brave areâ€" tic conditions to keep up with club activities during the winter, the eveâ€" ning will be the "all out" signal. A program of entertainment, reâ€" freshment and exhibits, not to menâ€" tion much handâ€"shaking and yarnâ€" spinning, has been worked out to enâ€" courage the racing season start which is set for Decoration Day week end. This is the time of year when tarâ€" paulins come off boats and scrapers and brushes are wielded with enâ€" thusiasm in anticipation of summer‘s racing and cruising.

The Green Bay P.â€"T.A. will meet Wednesday afternoon, April 2, at three o‘clock at Green Bay Road School. Mr. Nash, art teacher, will discuss "Art at Home for Children." Mr. Lempinen will be one of 27 traffic officers and traffic engineers graduated this term. More than 800 policemen from 46 states have atâ€" tended the 12 previous courses, the first in the fall of 1933. As Director of the College Division Mr. Olson will have charge of the sales policy of his company in 825 Colleges from Coast to Coast, The establishment of such a division marks another of the many retailâ€"minded moves on the part of Eversharp, Inc. Patrolman Earl Lempinen, member of the local police force, will be graduated from Northwestern Uniâ€" versity‘s thirteenth traffic officers training school next Saturday. Officer Lempinen To Receive Diploma A graduate of Purdue University, class of 1929, Mr. Olson was captain of the Boilermaker Football team in 1928. Since his graduation Mr. Olson has been active in Alumni work both here and in New York City. ‘ Mr. Olson is entirely familiar with ‘the College Market. For the past decade his company, Campus Tours, Inc., operated over a wide area, creâ€" ating sales organizations in several hundred colleges. Student tours to Europe were sold on a large scale through these merchandising units. So effective were the sales plans of this organization that in ten years‘ time, Campus Tours became one of the foremost organizations of its kind in the country. The outbreak of the war terminated the activities of Campus Tours and made Mr. Olâ€" son available to Eversharp, Inc. Just a year ago Mr. Ralph A. Bard, a resident of Highland Park and a leading Chicago industrialist, and Mr. Martin L. Strauss, who has had a long experience in the Department Store, Chain Store, and Advertising Agency business, were instrumental in forming a new, vital company, Eversharp, Inc., to carry on the activâ€" ities of the old Wah!l Co., which company is no longer in existence. In the twelve month period in which this company has been operating it has distinguished itself as a manuâ€" facturing organization with a retail point of view. The many merchandisâ€" ing innovations introduced during the past year are climaxed by the anâ€" nouncement of this new College Diviâ€" sion, designed to give added merâ€" chandising impetus to retailers in the college towns throughout the counâ€" try. Mr. Martin L. Strauss, President of Eversharp, Inc., of Chicago, (forâ€" merly of Highland Park) has anâ€" nounced the formation of a College Division of his company for the furâ€" ther promotion of its products in the Intercollegiate Sphere. Harvey S. Olâ€" son, of Ravinia, has been named Diâ€" rector of the College Division of Eversharp. Mr. Olson was formerly president of Campus Tours, Inc., of Chicago, New York, London, and Paris. Harvey S. Olson To Direct College Division, Eversharp THE PRESS The Highland Park Woman‘s Club is planning to close the season with a spring dinnerâ€"dance on Saturday night, May 3rd. The social commitâ€" tee with Mrs. Tom Leeming as chairâ€" man is in charge of the ball with Mrs. Alonzo C. Tenney as dance chairman. An excellent orchestra has been engaged and members may bring guests. Tables will also be set up for those who prefer to play bridge.

The clubs each won six matches, Highland Park winning the singles and losing the doubles. Participating for Highland Park were Chas. Nixon, Bob Redfern, H. W. Mollison, Fred Welsh, and Dick Cole while the North Chicago players were Getchell, Lundy, Casswell, Gordon and Butler. Next Monday the Jocal club will start a ladder tournament. All playâ€" ers are urged to be out in as much as results of this tournament will be used to determine the makeâ€"up of the team which will represent the club in the next scheduled match. Efforts are being made to secure a match with the Park Ridge Club in the near future. Spring Dinner Dance At Woman‘s Club Community Center Some are sweeping the air keeping down big and little insects. Others clean the foliage, the twigs and the branches of trees and shrubbery, where countless insects deposit their eggs; where larvae, plant lice, leafâ€" hoppers, flies and locusts do damage. Some are caretakers of the bark saving our timber from legions of enemies. And what about the ground itself with its hordes of harmful inâ€" sects, weeds and seeds? feathâ€" ered friends inspect C‘lt =oo, and through their ceaseless work conâ€" tribute more to our national wealth than we can possibly estimate. Allenâ€"American bird biographies Burgessâ€"Burgess bird hbook for Whoever watches the birds must be impressed by the way they fulfill the duties nature has bestowed upon them. "The labor is so adjusted as to give to each class of birds duties as distinct as a cook‘s from a chamberâ€" maid‘s." Spring is certainly around the cornâ€" er. The Meadowlark is singing in the field and the first robins have arrived to look over the situation. One by one they will followâ€"the Bluebird, the Blackbird, the Phoebe, the Flicker, etc., and each one spells Spring. people _" Patchâ€"Bird stories Petersonâ€"Junior book of birds Writer‘s programâ€"Bird‘s of the world 3 children i Chapmanâ€"Bird life Chapmanâ€"Travels of birds Doubledayâ€"Birds worth knowing Kenlyâ€"Wild wings Matthewsâ€"Book of hirds for young LIBRARY A business meeting with Russell Clark presiding will be followed by games and refreshments.
