Wednesday, Jit 6: Mrs. p. E. Pi ice, 675 Raymond Street, was hostess yesterday afternoon to a group of old classmates, who had assembled in the vicinity. This is the first meeting of this group in twenty-five years. The afternoon was ^spent informally, followed by dainty refreshments served by the hostess. Guests of the affair were: Mrs. Belle W. Merker of Belleville. 111.; Mrs. Hattie M. Dalton of Freeport, Mrs. Amy O. Shatell of Okmulgee, Okla., Mrs. Hetty W. Mills of Carpentersville, Mrs. Mayme E. Lamphere of Woodstock and Mrs. Mary W.

Kramer, who some time ago purchased what is more familiarly known as the "Riverside" barn, began work this (Thursday) morning remodeling siune for a boat and machine shop he expects to open therein shortly. Mr. Kramer has been building boats all summer at his home up the river and hens very much encouraged over future business prospects in his line of work. While some of the machinery for the new shop is already here, more has been ordered and should be delivered within the course of the next month, when Mr. Kramer hopes to be ready to start actual operations in* his new shop. Mrs. James Brandt Hostess Mrs. James Brandt of Chicago, who is summering here, entertained a company of friends and old schoolmates at Willow Beach cottage, on Fox river north of this village, last Thursday afternoon. A very pleasant few hours were passed by the guests and before the home going hour a most delicious luncheon was *«<> know that it is the most that ever graduated t task F^ttr application early, as there will •a: *The Place! ~W!t' Edgewater, for combination summer and winter homes.

We will take first into consideration the fame of "Andy," who hails from Ringwood, which rests on two things: First, he. walks like an undertaker. Second, he is the only woman hater in the class. If amyone wants a firstclass nuisance inquire of Andrew Hawley, box No. 96, Ringwood, 111. Guaranteed to make trouble day and night. .V Jimmy Conway hasa wonderful disposition and a sweet smile. Anybody could get along with her and "al* has domestic tastes, so I'd advise some young bachelor to wish her to become his cook. Francis Frisby, tfte boy without a nickname, isn't quite so bashful as he looks. He can drive a Ford to Crystal ' Lake in his sleep and not even stray off the road once. If anyone wants a chauffeur to run a taxi line between here and Crystal Lake see him at once. Billy Freund is one of those deceiving little souls. How can one with such an angelic expression be inwardly so naughty ? When Miss Pryor reads off the list of those who have misbehaved and must remain after school, lo, her name leads al| the rest So we think that shell make a good shoplifter or pickpocket since she can do anything without looking guilty. , * Howard, whose executive ability has been mentioned elsewhere in this advertisement, is a very ambitious young man. Thru his tireless efforts due to his loyal class spirit he has thus far succeeded in all of his undertakings, altho Howard sometimes thinks his efforts are in vain. We take this opportunity to express our appreciation for the interest and assistance of our president. Doesn't somebody want him to manage their business for them? * Lelah is noted for being inquisitive. The fact that curiosity once killed a cat doesn't baffle Lelah in the least. She delights in asking the teachers questions which they cant always answer. Due to this questioning spirit Lelah will no doubt some day make a great discovery corresponding to the discovery of Sir Isaac Newton. Wayne is one brilliant student. He has a specialty in literature, and never fails to answer questions put before him. He is becoming professional as a poet and just as tho nature had not already endowed him with talent enough.

What a broad future is opened for us. We are thru with high school days of careful guidance by teachers and parents. Heretofore our task has been chosen and we have accomplished it as best we could under the instructions of our teachers. * Now% we are to choose for ourselves and make our ambitions a realization. There will be no guiding hand to point out and say, "There is a rough place, watch out for it; take this path, it. is smoother." i Then the question arises, what shall we do? We have many hopes and ideals, but how can we put them on a strong foundation so that the first gale of misfortune will not scatter them as it does the particles of dust? We are taught what to do and how to do it, but when it comes to | applying our knowledge to real prob- - lems, are we not nearly as uncertain as the young robin who has been feed and protected by the parent birds, and is pushed out of the nest to^ care for himself? He knows how to fly and what food to eat, but as he sits clinging to a small branch not very far above the ground, is it not the fear of the unknown that makes him tremble and cling tighter to the bonds that he is sure oft So it is, with the high school graduate. Of course that period of hesitation differs greatly, according to the character and ambition ^ of the graduate; also the place in which he lives and his financial situation. For many it is but a matter of a few hours of doubt apd suspense; for others it may be a longer tim?, bu^some never take the decisive #iep and hover over the precipice for fear of the results if they should fail to reach the opposite side. But we have tried to apply ourselves so that this moment of indecision will be brief and that we will live lives that will be an honor to ourselves, our school and our community To each one the question mark will have a different meaning, but if we try to live up to the hight of our aim there is but little fear of failure. When we are struggling to gain our Mnbition and feel discouraged, we Will look back upon the happy day* of our high school lives, thereby gaining heart and courage to make our dreams our realizations l Bernice Smith. yon a col "HIS MAJESTY, With Douglas Fail Tuesday and tlCAiT at Entpire ay Next >\vV i i.

'c-.-' ' From ev«ry standpoint of production-- settinRs, atai^liere, pbiye^ and mechanical jesty, the America^ ia reported te outshine anything that Mr. Fairbanks has heretofore attempted,: • The story, which was wfired by Joseph Henaberry, Mr. Fairbanks' director, with the as.sistanciB oi Eltor Banks, was worked over for eight weeks. It deals with the adventures of a young New Yorker who lives on excitement,, Hjfc unquenchable thirst for new thrills leads him across two continents and the settings necessary for the portrayal of the story have cost a tidy fortune. A, Mexican village was built in th* hills surrounding the Fairbanks studios in Hollywood. In another place a complete French town was constructed and in another section df the studio a New York tenement street was erected. A French railway line was needed, so one 1500 feet long and of standard continental design was laid, the carriages being the exact duplicate of the type in use abroad. The interiors, like the exteriors, are said to be a revelation, both as' to magnitude and beauty. Altho the new stage Qf (the Fairbanks studios is among the largest ever built, it was not large enough fat a tremendous interior of a palace. So one end of the gigantic stage was remoyed and sixty feet of flooring . added to give the proper proportion to this, beautiful and imposing Scene) From thelback of the main floor to the cameras measured 330 feet, Which makes this probably the largest interior ever used in a motion picture. Supporting Mr. Fairbanks are many film and stage favorites, including Marjory Daw, Frank Campeau, Sam Sothern, famous New York and London actor and brother of E. H. Sothern, Lillian Langdon, Jay Dwiggins, Bull" Montana, Albert McQuarrie, Will Gillis and £hil Gastrqx. "His Majesty, the American," will bq shown at the Empire on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next lira sk, July 19 ad 20. At Love Nest Cottage £«Vin McHenry girls, with a chaperon, are spending and enjoying a weqk at Love Nest cottage on Toddle Point, opposite Riverdale, at the mouth of Fox river. The diversions are swimming, bathing, boating, dancing and picnicing. Needless to say that the girls keep the neighborhood in a lively mood during their stay. Those who make up the party are: Misses Eleanor Walsh, Cornelia Freund, Florence Rothermel, Rosalie Stillihg, Elizabeth Vogt, Margaret Stenger and their chaperon, Miss Mary Burke.

Preaident's Addreaa We, the class of 1921, welcome you to our class day exercises. We are glad to see you manifest such an interest in us as shown by the big attendance here tonight, especially as this will be the last program the class of 1921 will «r^r present in this dealold school. We are all going forth as a class with a definite aim in life, confident that if we live up to this aim we will succeed. It was this same confidence that made Lincoln succeed. The ability to see the things to be done in th% world and the courage to go ahead and do them without being told will be the greatest factor in reaching our ideals. We must work with energy, courage and perseverance if we succeed. Ev&i if we do not succeed at first, we must remember that failure of Ties makes us better. It has been called the great law of resistance that makes us better in the proportion that we overcome this resistance. It has also been said that failures are but stepping stones to something higher. And thus let us so live up to these high ideals that we will be an honor to the community in which we live. | I would now like to say a few words to the claSs collectively.
