The coming of "The Tramp and the Lady ' to the Central <5pera house on Sunday evenirfg, Dec. 3, will mark the theatrical event of the season locally. This show carries all its own speoial scenery, has a company oi competent performers and offers a plot which has been voted very interesting wherever the play has been seen. Oliver Laba- die is the author of "The Tramp and Lady" and he has written a three act comedy with heart interest. The best thing about the play is that the laughs come thick and fast and make such a thing as losing interest out of question. The company carries several specialty artists and vaudeville numbers add to the enjoyment. 24 For a velvety complexion try Mc­ Allister's velvet cie&m lotion. 34 ADDITIONAL PEMONALS. J. 6.

The plane geometry class is strug­ gling with polygons. Agnes Conway, Belle Carey and James Boyle were absent from school on Monday. School closes on Wednesday for the rest of the week on account of Thanks­ giving vacation. Last week there were tests in latin, physical geography, geometry, physics and English history. The community's motto for her schools should be, "The best of every­ thing, not the cheapest." -- Henry Gannett. Judging from the number of books taken from the library each week, the school has many literary students. Current events will be discussed this week by Leslie Norager, Mary Bons­ lett, . Marion Whiting and Leonore Freund. There will be no discussion of cur­ rent events next week, as no papers will be issued this week on account of Thanksgiving. Don't fail to attend the basket ball games between the boys and girls of Dundee and our boys and girls next Friday night. Both teachers and scholars are look­ ing pleasant this week. Perhaps they are thinking of that delicious Thanks­ giving dinner. The physical geography class is studying mountains, plains and pla­ teaus. If you want to find out hovr the hill in your back yard was formed, call in one of the class. A number of the high school girls attended the basket social at Ostend last Saturday evening. All of their baskets sold for neat little sums, es­ pecially one. How about it, Curly? On Friday evening, Dec. 1, the Dun­ dee high school boys' and girls' basket ball teams will journey to McHenry to meet the high school teams of this place. The Dundee boys have won several games this season, all by large scores. The McHenry boys hope to break this winning streak. The Dun­ dee girls also have a fast team, but the McHenry girls are sure they can defeat them. A l»rge attendance is expected. ^ BRIDE AND GROOM RETURN MR. AND MRS. PETER ».
