S. of Fox Lake and B. J. of Fox Lake. The Seniors are selecting their class invitations at this time. Everyone is cordially invited to attend an etiquette lecture in room 107 at a near future date. Further announcement later. Junior Notes The Junior officers arc reading a variety of class plays, and will choose the one to be played some time this week.

A., and requests that dues be paid to her. Ts it our shelves full of drugs and chemicals? Is it our equipment at the prescription counter? Is it the Registered Pharmacist Certificate that hangs on our wall f Or is it our wide g variety of drug store merchandise? True, you could not have a drug store without all these things. They make up the physical part of our business. But what really makes this store a Drug Store is the Service we render to the people of this community. It is our willingness to accommodate. It is that spirit which prompts us to keep our doors open long after other stores have closed. We appreciate the splendid patronage of our customers, but believe we can still further serve them and give greater satisfaction if they will concentrate all their purchases in drug store merchandise at this Illinois Qualified Drug Store. No matter if it is a cake of soap or ten cents' worth of writing paper, remember that the profession of pharmacy is back of every purchase you make.

"The fair sex," he pointed out, "has had a big influence on the refinements and improvements made to mo* tot ears and their judgment is al- •nm/m taken into coiiBiUBfatioii by car manufacturers before new models are brought out. "Never before, however, has the influence of the women been felt in the tire industry to a marked degree until the development of the ballooon tire. Women have always been quick to take advantage of an improvement that made their cars better looking or easier to drive, as well as providing greater safety and comfort. Since Balloons combine these necessary attributes they lead the field with the women. "Women who do considerable driving are quick to notice the improvement in car control when nsfnj? Firestone Balloons. Indeed, the occasion* al driver appreciates the relieved strain of applying brakes and finds that what formerly required all the strength at her command has been reduced to a mere movement of the' pedal, with instant response. "Women are keen on appearance and know what these big, luxuriouslooking tires mean to the car and they don't overlook the economy of Firestone Balloons in greater mileage, longer car life and reduced gas consumption. "It is but another sign of the keen intelligence of the fair sex." f The Jolly Sixteen <;ard club was entertained at the pleasant home of Mrs. M. M. Niesen on Riverside Prive on Wednesday afternoon.
