ne aia. - v rr Ne ih A $i lS WINNET KA "TALK June 26, 1926 "ON TO EUROPE" BOYS SAIL NEXT WEDNESDAY Successful Contestants in Hol- lister Subscription Campaign to Visit in Four Countries Two New Trier High school boys-- Symon Bows of Wilmette and Walter Schroeder of Glencoe--will leave the north shore early next week and, on June 30, set sail for Europe on one of the most remarkable vacation tours any boy of high school age could wish to enjoy. They go as the guests of Lloyd Hollister, publisher of WiLmMere Lire, WINNETKA TALk and GLENCOE News, the north shore's three news magazines, the journey representing first awards in the "On to Europe" subscription salesmanship contest con- ducted recently by Lloyd Hollister, Inc, with New Trier High school boys, the exclusive entrants. A third boy at New Trier, who was the successful entrant from Winnetka, has selected a scholarship at North- western university in lieu of the Eu- ropean tour. He is Ralph Heineman. Ralph is a native of Sweden and has been in this country only a few years. A vacation in Europe is obviously far less attractive to him than an oppor- tunity to continue uninterruptedly his plan for a college education in Amer- ica. Leave North Shore Monday Symon Bows and Walter Schroeder will arrive in New York Tuesday, June 29, stop at the Hotel McAlpin over night and sail out of New York harbor the next day on the U. S. line Steamship Theodore Roosevelt. The tour of Europe is one of the many attractive Mentor Tours which includes sojourns in England, Holland, Belgium and France, taking in visits to the important cities in those coun- tries and to the battlefields of the World War. Unexcelled service and accommodations are guaranteed over the 33-day trip. The boys will be ac- companied by one of the men of the high school faculty whom they selected as their choice as travel companion. What Do You Think of These July 4th Prizes?
