Your fuel merchant will arrange for the call. This service will save you a part of your fuel cost for this winter. Change to this better fuel now. Better because it contains more heat, ton for ton, than hard coal and costs 30% less, because it is more easily handled than soft coal, makes no soot nor smoke, leaves few ashes and costs only about as much as the "best" grades of soft coal.

Guests at Kenilworth Hunt Monday last, the Frank Ketchams of Devonshire lane and the James Ralph Starrs of 320 Raleigh road, gave the most unique party ever attended in Kenilworth, a treasure hunt. About 40 of their friends. dressed for roughing it, met at the Starr res- idence, and after receiving instruc- tions, they were divided into 12 teams, two couples to a team, and, in auto- mobiles, started out on the hunt. The prize was to be a "pot of gold" and the chase led to the lake tront, to the old golf course west of Kenilworth, back to the Wilmette Harbor, to In- dian Hill, under bridges, up and down ravines and high bluffs, each new des- tination disclosed on a cleverly worded clew, printed on a shingle and hidden away at the spot. The search was conducted with the aid of search lights, gers" tearing from clew to clew in tlieir cars as fast as the slippery streets would permit, and sometimes faster, was the occasion for two 4-11 alarms for the Kenilworth police. The "pot of gold" with 4000 pennies in it, was finally discovered under the pier at the Kenilworth beach. The winning team was led by Holden K. Farrar. The guests, much winded, and in need of refreshment, then went to the Frank Ketchams where refreshments were quickly consumed.
