Townley, director of recrea- tion for the village, closed with the "River Rats" in the lead on 714 points. Second place was taken by the North- westerners on 689 points. Unusual in- terest was shown by the boys in the contests and at a recent meeting 94 out of the 102 boys were present. Teams for the new "handball" league, which is to take the place of the basketball league, have been chosen and will soon start competitive tilts. Hand- ball is said to be a modified form of indoor ball, being played with a volley ball which is kicked instead of thrown. There are also only two bases. The teams are as follows: "Hooper- dinkals"--Osgood, captain, Scott, Hut- chins, Richards, Smith and Gilbert; "Invincibles"--Buck, captain, Jenks, Saxton, Phillips, Simons and Gillette; "Alley Cats"--Mons, captain, Monta- naro, Nelson, Joslin, Healy, Dickinson and Harrison; "Ruff Rats"--Nygaard, captain, White, Howe, Kingsley, Ham- ilton, Knauer and Byrnes. "Dudcliff Shoes at Lord's Fit Me So Well!" - dh A a a rarTRRe Ym vyvvvvy didi Shoes "That's what my young son tells me. And he says, 'Believe me, mother, that man in the Basement de- partment sure can fit shoes so they feel fine from the very minute I bave them on. No breaking them in. That's what I like." " Other Boys' Experiences Too Increasing daily sales of Dudcliff shoes prove that other boys have had sim- ilar experiences in com- fortable fit. But that's not all. Dud- cliff shoes are quality shoes, made of superior leathers, well styled and low priced.

ENTERTAINS Members and Guests Enjoy Dinner and Entertainment; Plan Home- Coming for March 10 By A. H. H. On Thursday evening, February 24, the Odd Fellows of the north shore en- tertained, a large gathering of members I. O. O. F. building at Wilmette. The Wilmette Rebeckahs served a boun- tiful and appetizing dinner in the lodge hall, between the hours of 6:30 and 8 o'clock, to about 250 guests. Then, shortly after 8 o'clock, a program of entertainment was given in the large dance hall. G. A. Nauman, grand master of Illi- nois, delivered the address of the eve- ning. He commented on the good work that the local lodge was doing and explained about the assistance the order was giving in relieving distress throughout the state, and about the great good it is accomplishing by car- ing for and educating its orphans at the home in Lincoln and for the gen- erous maintenance of its Old Folks home at Mattoon. A staff of the Wilmette Rebeckah lodge, in white gowns, executed a series of drills and marches that brought forth considerable applause. Miss Magnesson, a young woman who was reared in the Odd Fellows Or- phan home at Lincoln, gave an inter- esting account of some of the more intimate details of life at the Orphans' home. Other features of the program were bag-pipe music by Tom Scott; reci- tations by two women students at Northwestern University, School of Speech; harmonica solos by Edwin Anderson; violin selections by William Cunningham, Jr.; and vocal solos by Miss Lois Bailey. This program was followed by dancing, the music being furnished by the lodge orchestra. Thursday evening, March 10, A. T. Sherman lodge will hold its annual Roll Call night. This is in the nature of a home-coming affair, when all members, especially those who do not attend very regularly, are particularly urged to be present. Scout Junior Officers to Confer at Lake Bluff It is estimted that approximately 100 boy leaders of the north shore troops of Boy Scouts will gather at the monthly conference of junior officers March 12, at the Lake Bluff school. The general chairman of the monthly conference is Alvin Bartholomew, of Wilmette ; program chairman, William McAllen, of Glencoe; editor of the monthly publication of the council, "The Talk of the Troops," Prescott Lothrop, also of Glencoe. Some very unique ideas are being planned for the March program it is said. NEED HEALTH OFFICERS At the present time there are 2,700 health officers in Illinois but only 300 or 400 of these are physicians. The others are made up of county super- visors, village clerks and village presi- dents. These people are splendid citi- zens but they are not trained in the prevention and control of disease. The larger cities have physicians trained in public health work for their health of- ficers because they have discovered that training and experience are es- sential to good management. As a re- sult the cities have less typhoid fever, less smallpox, less tuberculosis and smaller losses from a number of other communicable diseases than do the rural people. Before they found out about the benefits obtainable from scientific health service the city people always suffered more severely than the '| farmers from communicable disease. *
