Asks Residents to Trim Shrubs at Street Corners An appeal for the cooperation of residents in trimming their shrubbery so as not to interfere with the view at street intersection was issued by Village Manager H. I.. Woolhiser this week. Mr. Woolhiser said that a vil- lage ordinance provides that the sup- erintendent of public works may order shrubbery trimmed where it obstructs the view of traffic, but that it is not the wish of the village officials to be arbitrary in the matter. It is hoped; the residents will cooperate. DO YOU KNOW -- That the American Legion auxiliary adopted the poppy as its Memorial Flower at its organizing convention held in Kansas City, October, 1924, and pledged the profits from the poppy sales 100 per cent to welfare relief for the service men and women and their families, thus fulfilling the true mean- ing of the poppy--an Emblem of Faith which is being kept with all who died, through service to the living?

A. Camps For Men and Boys Are Opening Soon The swish of a paddle, the croak of a bull frog, the lap-lap of the waves on the shore, the distant call of a loon, the smell of pine smoke at night as the camp fire blazes up and then dies down, the clear bright stars overhead --all of these and more of the appeals of camp life, that thrill every normal boy or man, are open to any inter- ested Winnetka boys or men, by invi- tation of the Y. M. C. A. of Chicago. No zones of silence, no automobiles to dodge, no factory whistles, no fancy | clothes to keep clean, no table cloths to spot, but a great chance for a man or boy to fish, swim, climb, row, cook, paddle the stream, sleep under the stars, and enjoy the outdoor life of his savage ancestors. The Young Men's Christian associa- tion of Chicago now has 1000 acres of beautifully wooded land, with nine miles of frontage on nine charming lakes for eight camps. One of these is Camp Nawakwa for business men in the Lac du Flambeau Indian reserva- tion in northern Wisconsin. This is in the heart of the fishing district, where big and small game stalk through the birch and pine forests. Game fish of all varieties swim the lakes and streams. Sports, canoe trips, hikes to the In- dian villages, and other activities are on the daily programs but a guest is free to do as he pleases all the time. Indian guides are available for those wishing to explore the many lakes and rivers. Seven camps are for boys. Some are located near Chicago and others in northern Michigan and Wisconsin, so that a boy can go to any kind of a camp he wishes. An outdoor school is conducted for the boys at one camp, in which a bov may make up his credits in one or two subjects. Those interested should make their reservations at once, which may be for any period of time, from thirteen days to all summer, according to the an- nouncement. A camp booklet will be sent to any boy or man reader who writes to the nearest branch, or Camp department, 19 S. LaSalle street, and mentions this booklet. Young People to Visit Tower Hill Camp, Mich. A group of young people, about fif- teen or twenty in number, chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Rummler, Mrs. Tohn Olmsted and Mrs. J. W. F.

Goodwin will also go to the camp today, but expects to return Sun- day noon, and in the afternoon the Rev. Thomas A. Richards will join the party, returning with them Monday.
