He is a sophomore and " knew nothing of plunging when he first came to New Trier. By steady and persistent endeavor, however, he has placed himself at the head of the plunger class in the interscholastic records. A year ago last December Schaefer broke the plunging record and held the title until Olmstead of Evanston captured it by two seconds a few months later.

Admittance is free and everyone will be welcomed. Thirty Minute Periods Allowed. Updn returning to school Tuesday the from a three-day vacation, the stu- the dents were pleased at the announce- ment of Principal Brown that 30-min- ute periods would prevail and that OWI school would close at 1 o'clock p. m. low because of lack of facilities for pre- | paring luncheons, due to the lack of gas. This ruling held good over Wed- nesday, but cook stoves were pro- r m- the le" y and 8 vided Thursday and the old order of things resumed. No Gas Cuts Candy Sale. The lack of gas at Winnetka the past few days was responsible foi the small returns received from the girls' candy sale, last Tuesday after- noon. Only one-half of the candy promised was received, and the re- ceipts from the sale were cut down accordingly. $10.05 was realized toward helping the young ladies de- fray the expense of cuts and other expenses connected with their issue of "Echoes." Another method of raising funds will be tried out some time next week. The high school was favored Wed- nesday morning of last week by Miss Shipley of Cincinnati, who sang two groups of songs as follows: 1.08 Gray: Days .. coi i. i.

The latter building was the gift a few. years ago of Mrs. J. McGregor Adams of Highland Park and besides being used as an administration build- ing in summer, served in winter for the work done by this association for convalescent men. This winter camp at Arden Shore is the only place besides the Jewish Home where men patients discharged from the County hospital and the wards of other hospitals may be sent to stay until they are strong enough to return back to work. At the time of the fire there were fifteen men in camp besides a cook and housekeeper and the caretaker, who lives there the year around. There is no cause known for this fire. The thermometer was eight below zero and 'a high wind blowing but despite their disabled and half sick bodies, these convalescent men worked hero- ically with the caretaker and house- keeper to save the Baby-fold (a build- ing used in summer for an Infant Welfare station). The loss of these buildings forces the board of man- agers to discontinue this work for convalescent men during the remain- ing winter months. The recognized value of the work done at Arden Shore camp, not alone in giving summer outings to more than 1,900 mothers and children each year, but also in doing the convales- cent work for the men in winter, makes the board of managers confi- dent that those who have so gener- ously supported the camp in the past will at this time of real emergency contribute, not only toward mainte nance for the coming summer but alsc toward helping to replace both the buildings and the equipment lost by fire.
