This represents the largest enrollment in the history of the school. Knollsley hall, renovated dur- ing the summer, now houses the offi- cers, and, in addition, is affording the kindergarten more extensive quarters than it has had before. This depart- ment can now take care of a few more pupils. All other departments are at the limit of their capacities. During the past two months various minor improvements on the grounds have been continuously going forward. Tell What Constitutes a Good Automobile Driver "Years ago the man who drive fast was considered a driver," says Charles M. Hayes, presi- dent of the Chicago Motor club. "Times have changed. Any fool can drive fast nowdays. The good driver is made through experience and educa- tion. He is always on the alert. for danger. Here are some of the things that indicate a 'good driver. "He stops at rallroad crossings and looks both ways before crossing. On a grade he always crosses in low speed. He stops before emerging from an alley, and blows his horn. He signals his intentions to those in the rear. He never pulls away from a curb without looking back to see if the road is clear. He gets over on to the inside lane of travel when turning left, and he pulls over near the curb when turning right. He never passes another car going in the same direction at a street intersection; he knows pedestrians are injured that way. He slows down when passing schools, churches, or buildings where public gatherings take place. He never passes another car on a hill or on a curve. He gives the right-of-way to cars approaching from the right. He slows down to ten miles an hour at street car crossings. He is courteous to other motorists and to pedestrians. He knows the laws and ordinances, and obeys them. Everyone likes to ride with the good driver." could good Country Day School Lads Take Measure of Parkers Friday, November 13, the North Shore Country Day school closed a generally successful football season by defeating the Francis W. Parker High school of Chicago, by a score of 19-0. The game was keenly contested but the Day school squad was playing at the top of its form and the victory was well earned. This year's win is the first that the north shore boys have secured from their older rival, although last year the two teams battled to a tie.
