Tony and his men have all been approved by the Dupont Pow- der company, understand thoroughly the dynamiting game in which they are engaged and their work cannot be ac- complished without a little noise re- sulting from the explosions, but there is absolutely no danger. "Be a little patient while the noise from the blasting is going on, keep- ing in mind that this is, in reality, the first and foundation step in real accomplishment of that for which the entire north shore for so many years has been clamoring, eradication of the mosquito menace. "The boards of trustees of the sev- eral villages, as well as the North Shore Mosquito Abatement district, ap- preciate the co-operation being given in this work by the Chicago Sanitary district." Superintendent Edwards regrets the District was late in getting started. The work should have been under way in April, he said, but the delay was due to the fact that the election creating the district, and providing the finances did not make the latter avail- able sooner. And, in the meantime, there was also a vast amount of pre- liminary work to be done in the way of organizing, laying out plans, and obtaining equipment. Villages Promise Help Practically all the towns have writ- ten to the Mosquito Abatement dis- trict assuring their support and co- operation in every way. Superintendent Edwards again urges all householders to do their part in seeing to it that no mosquito breed- ing places are permitted to exist about their premises. Should they know of such places they will confer a great favor to not only the Mosquito dis- trict organization, but to the entire community as well, Mosquito Abatement quarters, Glencoe 314. by district telephoning head- E.

Senior Girls Decide Upon Dress for Graduation Day The girls of the Senior class of New Trier High school met Tuesday morn- ing, May 8, to discuss plans for gradu- ation. It was decided that the girls would wear white, and the chorus, which will be placed behind the gradu- ating girls, will wear pastel shades, which will make a lovely background for the white dresses of the other girls. It was also voted that white shoes be worn, but whether the stock- ings be white, flesh color, or any other light shade would not matter, it was decided. The flowers are to be cor- sages. The only restriction on dresses is that they have long sleeves. Most of these arrangements were approved by unanimous vote after some discus- sion.
