For instance: To make a friend has al- ways seemed more import- ant to us than to make a sale. To tell 2 woman frankly when a garment or a particu- lar kind of fur doesn't look well on her. To tell the absolute truth about furs. You buy a reputation when you buy a fur coat. It's a real pleasure to look at good furs and to show them. Do come in soon. ELLiOoTT FUR CoO.

The students went to the rifle range for practice, shooting at a distance of 200 yards. Later those qualified, entered a contest for the marksman medals. Those making a score of 56 or better, qualified for medals. This Wilmette lad was also appointed Business manager for "The Sentinel," the C. M. T. C. annual pub- lication. He has worked industriously on the "Sentinel," having gained for his company, a close second place in a contest between nine other companies in the C. M. T. C. The prize awarded in this contest was a huge cake given to the company with the most sub- scriptions for the annual. The cake was served to the entire company at the noon mess. The C. M. T. camp has worked won- ders on the 1,900 boys who gave up a month of their vacation to come and train so as to have a better knowledge of military life, and to be efficient pro- tectors of the United States in time of future trouble. And military training was far from all they did. The after- noons were devoted to sports, and courses in Red Cross Life Saving, and rifle marksmanship were offered. Golf, fencing, boxing, and wrestling were other courses popularly attended. The primary aim of the C. M. T. C. is to build up the strength and health of the lads in attendance, and to train them for better future citizens. The camp opened on July 28th and expired Friday morning, August 26th. More North Shore boys should take this wonderful training and the chance to advance as officers in the C. M. T. C. Mr. and Mrs. Edward L. Scheiden- helm of 704 Lake avenue entertained the members of the Fellowship club at the dinner dance at Skokie Coun- try club last Saturday evening.
