Each told a brief story of what her particular type of college had to offer, and gave a word picture of what college had meant to her, and some of the things she had gotten out of it. The meeting was arranged by the Camp Fire Girls of college age meeting regularly once a month. It was called in the hope that it might be of help to those younger girls who are thinking of going to college, and who through such a meeting would have a chance to hear different colleges discussed by re- cent graduates speaking from first hand knowledge. The meeting more than justified the expectation of those sponsoring it. The entire group was most enthusiastic about the value of such a meeting and so great was the interest with which these college girls were received that it is probable that this will become an annual affair. Those who spoke, and the colleges they represented were as follows : Wellesley, Marian Montgomery; Rockford, Louise Blymeyer, Wilmette; Smith, Marcella Mettler; Northwestern, Katherine Wortley; Miss Wheelock's Kindergarten college, Virginia Ogan; Mt. Holyoke, Vivian Ratcliffe. PRESENT PLAY A group of children from the North Shore Country Day School will appear in the Skokie school Assembly Thurs- day, April 8, at 2:35 o'clock, presenting a play on Leonardo de Vinci, a play which the children have worked out.
