WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1922 DREAM GIRL HOME; THRILLING VOYAGE page 1) (Continued from was built, tent floors laid, a cabin put up for the junior group in charge of Mrs. Brenton, a road was put down the side of the bluff, a water tower erected and a well put in, outhouses were built and a large athletic field laid out. All of this construction was supplemented with track meets, stunt, nights and hiking and explor- ing expeditions. The Big Thriller The big thrill cf the summer came one Sunday morning when with very little warning a tremendous storm arose, The Dream Girl at anchor a thousand feet off shore seemed safe encugh until a giant breaker caught her broadside and her anchor began to drag. Soon she was in the break- ers and then began a six hour battle between the boys, led by Kinney, and the stormy sea, with the Dream Girl as the prize. After several desperate attempts Kinney, English Walling and John Jewell succeeded in getting through the breakers and reaching the craft. The engine was started and an attempt made to pull up to the anchor when an immense wave washed over the deck carrying young Walling a distance of several hun- dred feet with terrific speed. Several times an attempt was made to get a smail boat through the breakers, each resulting in failure. Seeing the futility of doing anything further to save the craft Kinney, Walling and Jewell put on life preservers and jumped over- board, reaching shore in a well nigh exhausted condition. An hour later the Dream Girl was on the beach with a terrific sea beating her un- mercifully throughout the night, throwing tons of sand, gravel and water into her through seven jagged holes in her port side. It was a night of sadness for the boys of Adventure Island camp, for none of them had much hope of ever seeing their craft afloat again. The morning following showed the Dream Girl buried in three feet of sand and gravel, a seem- ingly hopeless wreck. Then was when the true mettle of the boys re- vealed itself. IXven the junior group of seven and eight year olds insisted on having a share in the recovering of the craft. In just ten days after the storm the boys, assisted for but two days by a ship carpenter, had dug the Dream Girl out of the three feet of gravel, raised her to where new planks could be fitted, built a launch- ing erib and built skids out into deep water, all of which was done with materials picked up on the beach. From thirty lusty throats came a shout of joy and thankfulness when the final push rolled their craft into deep water again. The Adventurers The Winnetka boys who shared the experience were Joe Greeley, Town- send Copeland, English Walling, David Delay, Whitney Oates, Mac McDonald, Allan Wolff, John Jewell, Billy Isom, Alfred Alschuler, John "Admiral" Benson, Jimmy Fleming, Francis Lackner, Leon Alschuler, John Hilton, Dick Massmanu, Ariel Jewell, Jack Hunter, Frank Loeb, John Olmsted, Malcolm McConnell, Philip Hamilton, Albert Levora, Philip Brenton, Webster Jackson, Eames Marble, Stuart Marble, and Seymoux Ballard.

RUSSIAN AAMIORIES NOW NURSES SCHOOL Near-East Relief Trains Ar- menian Girls Elaborate buildings which the Rus- sian Czar erected in Alexandropol, Russian Armenia. to drill his men for war are now being used by Near East Relief workers tc train orphan girls for the nursing prefession, according to a depot which reached the Near East Relief office, 19 S. La Salle st., Chicago, this week. Three American nurses are in charge of three training schools in the Armenian city. The former Rus- sian barracks have become centers for equipping orphan girls to fight ty- phus, cholera and other plagues in the Armenian famine area. The nurses select their girls from those over fourteen years of age among the twenty thousand children in American orphanages in Alexan- dropol, Their eagerness to join the Americans in the hospital work and to train for the pursing profession has aroused favorable comment among medical heads of the relief or- ganization. Some of them may later be selected for additional training in America in order that they may re- turn to their native land as leaders in their profession. There is a great lack of nurses throughout the Cau- casus. The willingness of the Ar- menian girls to do their part in help- ing to save their people from the dread diseases which go hand in hand with famine, is typical of the splendid and is just another proof that Amer- ica should spare no effort to save them from the cruelties of Turkish barbar- ism. NORTHCLIFFE'S DEATH FAILS TO HALT PLANS FOR ADVERTISING MEET New York.--The death of Viscount Northeliffe will not affect seriously the plans which he initiated for the welcome in London when the Asso- ciated Advertising Clubs of the World held their 1924 convention there, ac- cording to a message received here by F. A. Wilson Lawrenson, of the Union Carbide and Carbon Corpora- tion, from Sir Charles F. Higham. During his recent visit here Sir Charles tendered the invitation in be- half of Lord Northcliffe. The first comic opera known was composed by Adama de la Hale. a Trouvere, in the thirteenth century.

The Parker Seli-filling pen is unlike any other self-filling pen in the world. Its mechanism is entirely enclosed within the barrel. Why? Successful and safe self- filling pens are necessarily equipped with soft rubber sacks on the inside to hold the ink. Soft rubber, by nature, is not as durable as hard rubber. Therefore, some- time, maybe in one year, maybe in five years, the soft rubber sack will burst. When this happens with ordinary pens, the ink is free to come out through the opening in barrel through which the self-filling lever protrudes, thus, staining the surroundings --the clothing or hand bag, etc. With the Parker Pen no ink can possibly escape under any circumstances because there is no opening. Furthermore, it does not necessarily mean an interruption of service. The self-filling mechanism can be re- moved and the pen used as a drop filler until some time when repairs can conven- iently be made. The Parker self-filling pen is thus the one and only safe pen under all circum- stances.
