One of them is that last Saturday they had the youngest scout in the world. No boy can be a scout until he is 12 years of age. Scout- master Stanton learned that John Woods was born at exactly 6 p. m. on April 14, 1916. Some weeks ago John began working on his Tenderfoot tests and was prepared to pass them satis- factorily before his birthday. Nine- teen seconds after he had become 12 years of age, he was declared a Ten- derfoot by his Scoutmaster. REEN BAY FISH CREEK _ A ISCONSIN - a ak 8 J WINNETKA, ILL. J UTCHARLES A.

Price for the initial drill period. Coach Price will have charge of the men, assisted by John McFadzean of Winnetka, a last year's varsity letter man. The purpose of the spring practice is to get a line on new men, teach fundamentals, and give the regulars additional practice. Soccer was introduced into the Big Ten last fall. A few months ago the University of Illinois made soccer a major sport, this being the first school in the Middle-West to put soccer on a par with football, basketball, base- ball and track. Last fall the Illini team played two conference games, one with Ohio and the other with Iowa. The North Shore alumnae of Gamma Phi Beta sorority met for luncheon last Monday with Mrs. C. W.

FINE DESIGNED FOR A PURPOSE Those who study to become Interior Decorators are learning to create lovely designs such as are being used in the most selective circles to beautify the home. department design, as taught by Mr. Eddy, Mrs. Daniel- son and Mr. Harringer, is a complete and perfect founda- tion for a life of artistic activity. But in the EVANSTON ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS design is not confined to these departments, for we regard it as the true basis of all artistic expression. classes as are drawing the nude figure, the greatest emphasis is laid upon design, so that the students may not in the end simply have learned to copy what is before them but they may find themselves equipped to bring to this world beauti- fully conceived ideas well designed and executed.
