Northrup, the venerable Police Magistrate of Winnetka, who reached the eightieth milestone 1n life's journey, Friday of last week, is still receiving congratulations from his friends ahout the village. The Judge has considerable difhculty in convincing some of them that he really is an octogenarian. They insist : and that he means 60 than 70, at any rate. Judge Northrup resides at Tower road and has an office at 556 Center street, where he is found as regularly, during office hours, as any of the younger professional business men of the village. There have been few periods when this regularity has not featured his going and coming. One of these was a few weeks ago, when, in driving home in his car one evening, he had a collision with an automobile truck, in which his car was completely demol- ished and the Judge himself was seri- ously injured. or not more 1144 But he has practically recovered from that, and is again about, as chipper as ever. On the anniversary of his birth, the Judge and Mrs. Northrup, with Dr. and Mrs. B. E. Fillis of 1138 Tower road as their guests, enjoyed a birth- day dinner in Chicago. Mrs. H. L.
