Yes, the New Trier High school mess-hall, Saturday, February 26, at 8 o'clock, is the place, date, and time for the Mardi Gras, one of New Trier's gayest events of the year. Being sponsored by the French club of the high school it is copied as much as possible from a real Mardi Gras, such as the one at New Orleans. The carnival spirit is to be carried throughout the evening and in many unique ways, as those who attend will see. Everyone is cordially invited, young and old. Girls, don't think you have to have a date. Come in couples, and you'll have a dandy time, for everyone is guaranteed to have that, and also, there will probably be quite a stag line. Wear a costume if possible, but do not stay away because of the lack of one, and don't wear a mask. There will be a grand parade, and also a king and queen of the carnival, and with this a great surprise--but come and see for yourself! Everyone is to receive at least two favors, and that isn't the half of it! The decorations are to be--well, at least unusual, but mere words can't really describe them. The entertain- ment is to be truly New Trier-ish and there is some very good talent there too. Also, the orchestra is to be full of pep, and, altogether, the Mardi Gras is to be a raging success. Why go somewhere else when you can go to New Trier's annual Mardi Gras and have a much better time? Don't for- get this Saturday night at 8 o'clock at the New Trier mess-hall! The Misses Lutie and Beulah Combs of Petersburg, Ill, spent the past week-end with Mrs. Delbert W. Poff of 739 Walden road. They returned to their home Monday, February 21. HEADS COLLEGE WORK. Dr. William F. English, Jr, to Have Charge of American Headquarters for Near East Schools The trustees of the American col- leges in the Near East have opened an office at 77 West Washington street, Chicago, with Dr. William F. English, Jr, 729 Ninth street, Wilmette, as manager. This office will be the Cen- tral division headquarters for the six American colleges in the Near East namely: Robert College, Constantino- ple; International college, Smyrna; Constantinople Woman's college ; Sofia American schools; American Univer- sity of Beirut; and Athens college. The plan is in the nature of an in- formal community chest for American education in the Near East. The col- leges are funding their assets and working together in a joint relation- ship, through an executive committee of nine persons chosen from the boards of trustees of the colleges. The Central division comprises twelve middle western states--Illinois, Kansas, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Towa, Missouri, Oklahoma, North and South Dakota, and Ne- braska. For the past year Mr. English has been regional secretary of the Con- gregational commission on missions at Chicago, having previously served for six years as district secretary of the American board of commissioners for Foreign missions, at Chicago. He is a graduate of Dartmouth college and Hartford Theological seminary. He was born in Essex Junction, Vt. and spent his boyhood in Sivas, Turkey, where his father was engaged in mis- sionary work.
