Ha» Lonely Knights of Columbus bache­ lors send out cafl for genial mates. Way out in North Dearborn street, Chicago, Illinois, isolated in a Knights of Columbus dormitory far from the sound of a sewing machine or a breath of the biscuits likQ, mother made, are twenty-five bachelors, tired of .restau­ rants, Weary of the freedom that knows no feminine touch and laughter- There are twent-five of us n.en, ages from twenty-one to forty-five. We are all well bred, most of us are college men, yet some of the girls here do not seem to consider us seriously. Most of us are business and professional men and able to provide a good home for the right kind, of a girl. While we do not want to be understood as ad­ vertising for wives, we would like a few nice girls who are also lonely and leave the rest to cupid. If the McHenry girls want to meet some lonely bachelors they need not go to Crystal Lake or Elgin, send them to 1120 North Dearborn street, Chicago. Respectfully yours, DORMITORY MAN.

NOTES During the past few days the Henry and Ringwood societies of the W. C. T. U. have been holding an in­ stitute under the leadership of Mrs. H. D. Hall of Aurora, 111. We were very fortunate to be honored with in­ structions from a woman of such wide experience in the temperance work. Mrs. Hall is a national worker and has visited every state in the Union and has helped to dry out many of the eighteen states which now stand for total abstinence. With all the helpful and practical methods which Mrs. Hall presented, her wonderful sense of humor made her discourse very inter­ esting. Mrs. Hall appeared at the school auditorium on Tuesday, where she entertained the children with an entertaining as well as instructive talk intermingled with a story each for the bovs and girl®. Her audience gav>- the speaker their rapt attention and evidently her visit to the school was not made, in vain.
