That drake the Leo Smiths have been keeping as a pet for the past few months has taken unto himself a mate. It was Leo's good fortune at a feather party last Saturday "Jfht that ended the enter's days of single blessedness. On arriving home wih his prize it took Leo just ten minutes to fnske the proper introduction and since then his pet has been quacking to the tune of tne current popular polka, "She's too fat for me. The Smiths intend to make the old bird happy again by r®du«nK bis new bride to a skeleton on Thanksgiving day. One month har elapsed since Mr. and Mrs. Ray Etten were married. To be exact it was on Oct. 25 when his new bride carried Ray across the ; threshold of their little cottage on Lake Shore Drive. Since the ceremonial afforded his perfect Pauline so much pleasure on that day he vowed that she could enjoy a repeat performance on every Oat 25 from row on. .

Don't *et excited, girls, that bulky document the stalwart Otter Ebert has been carrying around in his back pocket is not a marriage license. Just a time table for the Northwestern.

PHONG 4*4 MCHENRY, ILLINOIS BETWEEN CLASSES (by Jacque Hopkins) Last year, the language students at school subscribed to an organisation which provided us with names of students in foreign lands. I received the address of a young girl in Hungary named Judit, or Jutka, as her friends call her, Thorma. This week I am devoting my column to excerpts from her letters to me. 1 am sure that, sad though they may be, you will find in them that which expresses the sadness and sorrow of the thousands for whom help from America is a hope and a dream. "Dear Jacque, I am glad that you had a very happy Christmas. We also had a Christmas tree, but with candle lights on it. I got for Christmas a pair of stockings. I was very pleased because we hadn't sueh things for a long time. I hope that you enjoyed New Year's Eve. I like to dance very much, but I do not go anywhere yet, because I have no such clothes in which I may go to dance. Now we do not go to school because we have no coal, and in the cold schoolroom we cannot sit. Did you read Margaret Mitchell's novel, "Gone With the Wind?" Please read the part in which the writer tells us about the siege. This was our life. If you are curious, then read this part when Scarlett returned to the old farm. This is our life now. I don't know when it will be better. But not this is the trouble. We had such a terrible hard winter; it was so cold, that the Danube has frozen and now flood threatens us. I am very frightened. Jacque! Will you pray for me! Hungary is now very poor'. After the terrible war we have nothing. The food here is very bad. Dried beans and peas we have every day. Meat we see only on great holidays. Sugsr and sweets are also rare. Coffee, tea, cHocotate and such things we only see in our dreams. Our school was also bombed during the war. One or two bombs fell upon it. My mother's hair is quite white because she has very much troubles." Of course, not all her letters are sad because Jutka seems to have a keen sense of humor and an indomitable spirit. In one letter I excused myself for not writing by saying that I had "spring fever" and I then explained what it is. She answered: "My poor Jacque! Is this 'spring fever' very contagioas? I think the cause is a pretty young girl. I think in America the 'spring fever' is over and my Jacque will be diligent again." , I hope that Judit's letters have helped you to realise the poverty and desolation which is left in Europe as a result of the horrible; recent war.
