Often we met the girl to whom we had been drawn Piysteriously. - Sitting down be- Stere=her we listened to the enter- tainment provided for our hap- piness. We must confess that our attention was divided. Then came the chief item on the program, ice cream and cake. This eaten, the sociable drew rapidly to a close. And we, af- ter seeing the lady of our dreams to her home, hastened to our own, deciding that we had had a pretty good time, especially while eating. A PROSE POEM Lake Michigan, the one re- maining link between the man- made canyons of Chicago and God's original garden. The one last landmark with the power to revive memories of long-past days, tales of lonesome explorers, bravery, blood, and death. The one thing the red man's spirit might touch and find friendly-- remembering. Hemmed in on all sides by Nature's Nemesis, civil- ization, it still smiles at the sun and is content. It can still hold in its bosom ships and men--and the remains of ships and men. It can still glory in its unexplored gardens and laugh quietly at the attempts of man to copy them. Altered only by Nature, whose best attempts to conquer it re- sult in a wintry casing of ice, protecting and beautifying, rather than marring, its countenance, holding fast its every expression, peaceful or angry, for all to ad- mire, until spring's release, when emotions shall again change quickly and reflect themselves on its expressive face. Owned by God, answering only to Him, this inland sea remains --unconquered--happy--alone! down to business, and attend strictly to your own business, you will have the best of good luck. And if you and all your neigh- bors will just follow "this simple and trite advice of ours, that old hag Swuperstitition who 1s a sporadic throwback from the Dark Ages, will soon pine away and die of utter neglect and lack of friendly, sympathetic support. By tearing down these fool- ish icons of the older generations, by trampling in the dust the silly clatter brought down to us in "old wives' tales," we, of the new and oft-times scoffed-at younger generation, may do the world a lasting good. Up and at 'em! Come on you 13! Come on you Friday! We youngsters fear you NOT! PROHIBIT HITCHING! Read the following news item from a Chicago newspaper. "John Lunetti, nine years old, with several companions, hitched his sled to the back of a motor truck. In rounding the corner at De Kalb and Polk streets the boy was run over by another ve- hicle and killed instantly." For the lack of an ordinance forbidding hitching behind motor vehicles the next boy to be crush- ed to death may be one of our own North Shore boys. We cer- tainly ought to do what we can to prevent such calamities. Prohibit hitching behind motor vehicles! Are you the little skater in your own home? Are you the one who can execute engaging pirou- ettes on the glittering ice? One of the surest ways to keep young is to clamp a pair of steel run- ners on your feet and adventure forth on the frozen pond with the rest of the young people. Don't sit at home hugging the radiator these brisk zero evenings. Go out and show posterity that the middle aged can also cut a few Ee NORTH SH LINE HOR >= {4 "When the Bell Rines-STOP! HERE are many highways that cross the North Shore Line between Evanston and Milwaukee. The traffic they bear is unusually heavy. So the safe-conduct of vehicles of every kind across our right of way and the undelayed passage of all North Shore trains through this area involves a clock-work system for controlling the two modes of travel wherever they intersect. The North Shore crossing gateman is a most important factor of safety to North Shore communities. paramount duty of nearly two hundred of these watchmen of the highways guarding in three eight- hour shifts sixty North Shore crossings.
