Important changes in the regulations governing these scholarships will need to be observed by those making application this year, it was pointed out. At the present time there are four students from this county enrolled in the college. , • One scholarship in agriculture and another in home economics is offered annually for every county of the state by the board of trustees of the university. In addition, there is a second type of scholarship on a competitive county basis and a third type which is available through members of the ge*6ral assembly., Scholarships of these latter two types are good in any college of the university, as well as in agriculture or home economics. Prospective students must file applications with the Illinois Farmers' Institute in Springfield not later than May 31 if they wish to become applicants for the board .of trustees scholarships. One such scholarship in agriculture and another in home economics is offered for each county of the state with the exception of Cook and Lake counties. These two counties are made qp of the first ten Congressional districts and for each of these districts theft is one scholarship in agriculture and another -in home economics. One of the important changes that has just been made in the regulations governing these scholarships is that the holders of them must rank in tho upper half of their high school graduating class, or if they have completed one year or more of college work, they must have an average 15 points above passing in such work. Successful .applicants for these board of trustees scholarships must pass with an average grade of 70 or higher the county scholarship examination on the first Saturday in June in the county in which they reside. This examination is held in the office of the county superintendent of schools. The highest racking agricultural and horrid economics applicant in each county examination, if otherwise eligible, will be awarded the board of trustees scholarships. One scholarship good for any college of the university also is offered to the highest ranking of all students in each of the county competitive examinations. The winner of this scholarship might be a student who wished to enroll in agriculture or home economics. Each of the 204 members of the Illinois General Assembly also has a University of Illinois scholarship to be awarded annually to a student of his choice. This might be a student who contemplated enrolling in agriculture or home economics. All of these scholarships are good for four years and exempt the holder from payment of the matriculation and incidental fees of the university. They do not exempt the holded from the payment of laboratory fees or similiar fees for supplies and materials or from the special fees for instruction in applied music. Further information about the scholarships may be obtained by writing direct to the College of Agriculture, University of Illinois, Urbana. QOLF BUILDING THE GOLF SWING^l « For more than ten years, Harry Morris has been the "p'ro" at the McHenry Country Club where he manages the club house and sets up lunches for tired and thirsty golf placers. Mr. Morris first came to McHenry in 1923 after the club had been operating for about a year and in the summer of the following year, 1924, he was engaged as the club professional in which capacity he has since served. * ... * Many of the golfers playing on the local course received their start thru early lessons taken from Mr. Moi-ris, who is always ready with words Mrsa Louis Wrede hAa returned home after several months spent in Chicago. Mrs. Wrede, who is in poor health, has her daughter, Mrs. Aima Ghermifn, with her. Mir. and Mrs. Robert Weber and son, Jack, Mr. and Mhi. P. H.

He has kindly contributed the following article for Our golf column this week. Several things must be taken into consideration in building a golf swing such as balance, wrist action, proper position or stance at address. First of alt the. golf swing is made with the hands or so called wrist action. If one were to put up a building you would first build a foundation,, so it is when you begin to play golf. Your foundation in gplf is to learn to control the hitting area which is just before and after the ball is hit. Most people start to play golf without instruction, trying first the full swing, in other words they try to run before tl\ey can walk. Teaching ex- G. A.

If one urg. Mrs. Cook will meet her can get the feel of the short swing it is much easier to extend the idea until reaching the full swing. In the shorter shots you will learn the importance of the left hand and husband here and return to Denver with him. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Freund spent one day last week in Chicago. "Mr. and Mrs. R.

The pupil should < practice the short pitches from rtwenty- five to fifty yards and extend them gradually until he can cohtrol his muscles to make the full swing. Hvi should not be in too great a hurry to extend the distance' and hit the ball a good distance. He will be learning the foundation for his golf swing. I believe anyone taking up golf must understand the importance of the hands and wrists and until he does he is very much in the dark. After all, in a golf swing, be it short or long, one must remember '.that even in the short shots the body shifts from left to right in a minor degree, allowing the left side to turn. The method of hitting a golf ball is accomplished by a very complicated set of motions, a process that is too mixed up to keep in one's mind. However, most pupils get the idea that they are expected to remember all these things while making their golf stroke. It isn o wonder that a person confronted with a task of this kind will simply take a whack at the ball and watch it go. I find the pupils getting the best results are those who are willing to practice intelligently Harry Ifems BENEFIT SHOW DRAWS AUDIENCE iMrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch", shown at the Empire theatre three nights laftt week for the benefit of the Philathea club, was most successful and made a big hit with all who saw it Taken from the popular book of the same name, written by Alice Hegan Rice, the picture was one of pathos, courage and humor, enacted Mr ano mrs Jpnn mon^rer, «nu | pau]ine Lorf, Zazu Pitts, W.

Methodists of McHenry missed a rare treat when they failed to hear Bishop E. L. Waldorf of the Chicago diocese when he spoke at the M. E. church at Woodstock Friday evening.

Life would be cold and useless unless we are gripped by a mighty task. This eloquent speaker said, "Have an acquaintanceship with God, practice the presence of God, have companionship with Christ for he quiets and comforts." In refering to reforms, Bishop Waldorf stated that the, old must be re-' placed by something better and that the church must take its place in helping to settle social and industrial problems and reforms.
