Among these entertainers will be Maxwell Emmet Buttram. better known to a vast radio public as "Pat Buttram," a true stage performer who even when working in a broadcast studio acts his lines out as though he were before an audience.

Mr. Walsh had worked at his desk in the newspaper office at Harvard until August 24, when illness compelled him to seek medical attention. On Sept 4, just a week ago he was taken to the Chicago hospital for observation and consultation. Since that time his condition has varied, but last Saturday it was reported that he was much improved. Complications during the last fortyeight hours developed into pneumonia, which was the immediate cause of his death." • Bora In Hart land M. F. Walsh was born In Hartrand township, McHenry county, on January 17, 1867, of sturdy Irish parents. During his boyhood he attended the common schools of his home county, also spent one year at Beloit college. Beloit, Wis., and as he grew to young of his home community were proverbial. The writer feels the, death of M. F. Walsh sincerely. He was the dean of McHenry county newspaper men, the only otherolder living member of the craft being Charles A. Lemmers, who is now a resident of Denver, Colo. Walsh and Lemmers worked together as apprentices in print shops more than fifty years ago. In 1900 Mr. Walsh married May Major Edward Bouma is busy ing last-minute arrangements preparatory to welcoming his charges back to the Pistakee Bay School for Boys oil Wednesday, September 18. His outlook for the future is wot as doubtful this year, as when the school was in its infancy at this time last year. The Major is very pleased to look back over the events of the past year when the happenings were the first to be entered in the records of the Pistakee Bay school. He looks forward with the hope that some day the school may become known all over the country, basing his hopes on the fact that the enrollment more than doubled during the course of, the past school year. Most of the boys will be glad to return to their alma mater which furnished them with so much enjoyment in the sports which a boy lives for, besides the excellent courses offered by the faculty. They are happy that many newcomers are going to grace the halls of the school this fall too. Registration tiay. next Wednesday, will tell them exactly how many they jure to number. Welcome New Teachers - Among the new teachers this fall will be Mr. Bostrom. former Northwestern university athletic director, who will teach chemistry and social science besides supervising the athletic activities. Miss Maurie Evans, registered nurse, will take the place of Mrs. Bouma as house mother, nurse and dietician this year. She will also teach the grammar school. She Is a graduate of Milton university and Luke's hospital. . Returning for their second year at the school will be Mr. David Spear, Groesbeck, only daughter of the late' language and English teacher, and Dr. John W. Groesbeck of Harvard. They have had no children The Walsh home at Harvard Is located next door east from the Herald office. This was very convenient for Mr. Yfetlsh. who thus readily shared his time between his home and his office.
