Mr. Tread way attended the teachrs' convention in Chicago Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of kUlk week. Needless to say we were to see him back. The favorite remark of Mr. Treadway's "that we are still children" has proven true. We discovered (after months of planning) that, most of the senior girls aren't old enough to take the teachers' examinations at Woodteek. Miss Peterson told us last week that the English IV class is a typical woman's cluh--«11 we do is indulge in idle talk. She also advised Glenn Wattles (he's the only boy in the class) to send in his resignation to the club and spend more time studying. - Jnaior Notes Tfee spring like dax* of last week Started the boys talking about baseball. A dark cloud is again hovering near. Examinations will take place in two weeks. The teachers are giving us longer assignments than usual. Must be trying to see how smart we are. Coach Moser and his bunch of subs were defeated by the first team 83 to 16 at the outdoor gym Saturday. Bohr starred in his fancy stunts for the subs. Sophomore Notes My! Some of we sophomores have weak lungs. Don't you think Cornelia looks thin? The mice ate her lunch. Blanche Meyers visited 1^1 high school Monday afternoon. ^.";v We wonder what Mr. Moser likes so much about the school notes. Margaret surely believes in repeating the title of her oral theme. Cora Beth and Ruth Whiting of Ringwood visited school Friday afternoon. Ask some of the sophomore girls if they think Ringwood is very far from home. Georgie, tell mother to arrange for an afternoon nap. You do look sleepy in English class. Miss Peterson is training us for the junior class play. Beware, sophomores of your English! We received a terrible shock -Monday when Miss Pry or said our exams would come in two weeks. Some of the bookkeeping class, make typical gold fish and the typewriting room is a very suitable aquarium. We know that there is one sophomore girl who will never again attempt to drive to Volo, at least until the pavement is completed Sounds of the library after school hours: What book have I got due? Oh say! That's an awfully good book! Isn't our Latin awful? I wonder where the sixth encyclopaedia is? „ Why don't they put "Desert Gold on the book report list? Who wrote the Scarlet Letter?

A few freshie boys like to sit over in the junior row in front at the teacher. It looks like summer in the study hall. Miss Pryor's derk has been converted into a . regular flower garden Several of the freshman boys are not studying very hard. Have you any remedy for such a disease? Most of we girls are becoming very brave and are quite accustomed to see a mouse jump out of our coat sleeves. A Stolen Automobile A Cadillac automobile was purchased last fall by W. K. Kimball of Lake Forest and the car has been stored in the W. W. Monear garage at Richmond, during which time Mr. and Mrs. Kimball were in the eouth, the Monear and Kimball families being related. Last week W. T. Grear, Chicago detective for an insurance company, came to Richmond and identified the car as having been stolen and on which $2,200 of the $4,000 in sura nee had been paid the owner, Mr Kimball will be out the purchase price of the machine unieaa h« find the parties from whom it was purchased and they make good his loss.

The reason is because no one was at home when the party called to have same signed, but in order to give these people a chance td sign up a duplicate is now being signed. The real estate, insurance and few business men who have not signed up and do not do so now place themselves on record as being opposed to giving the farmers and summer cottagers, living across the river south at Waukegan street, a much shorter route to McHenry and the depot. Those who wish to sign caU up 97-J and ask for Frederick Beller.
