Before the sum- mer closed Cleveland had not one sin- gle fly and conditions were such that there will be none this year. What can be done In Cleveland in ono season by one woman, can cer- tainly be done In Wllmette with the small army of cleanly folk organised last year to fight the fly. But will It? FRIDAY. MAY 14, 1916. It is rather a paradox that the most deadly weapon of war should b«rome the moat valuable Instrument of . peace, and yet exactly that must be the ultimate effect of the submarine. The childhood fear of tho evil In the dark will sap a man's courage more than the most fearful odds in the broad tight of day. A GOOD OLD AGE. We, most of us, at least, dcslro long life but not decrepitude. Old ago may be better insured by a steady practice of self-control than by worrying too much about symptoms and what may be good fer the health. We must have the ability to enjoy life In order to live the life we desire. A clear conscience and self-control will help a whole lot. The man who makes his religion the basis of his. life is al- most sure to take proper care of his body.' Me will attend to his business .Without allowing It to make a slave of him. If he has the real religion it makes him cheerful, hopeful and con- tent and reverses will not depress biror^ MINSTREL 8HOW8. It is tho exception when a men's entertainment doos not take on the na- ture of a rolnatrel show. People like to see their friends in minstrel array and amateur performers enjoy the fun of "dressing up." Everybody enjoys a laugh and in the bettor for It. C-An amatour mln<:trel show audienco gathers in cxnectn»iQ» of being entertained with Jokes more or less modern nnd more or less apropos. Everybody is pleased, spec- tator and performer, and the minHtrel show's reputation for drawing power is further established. - When It is a men's organization be hind an entertainment for an adult audience, the only expeetstiu.-: aud de- sire Is to amuse. Wouldn't It bo well, perhaps, to keep this fact In mind. when advocating too loudly the educa- tional element In amusements for chil- dren? dol The ■ > to the A DOLLAR DOWN Apparently there arc few uut things that cannot be bad fur "a lar down and a dollar a month " prevalence of the opportunities ° hny suggests the magnitude of business done upon installment ment policies.

DOGS OR CHILDREN, WHICH? It was quite common opinion once that dogs only went mad at a certain time In the year. Dog days were cal- endared In tho latter part of August. '.'. wss au evil time. You couldn't go swimming for fear of water poison. Dogs were kept tied up on the shady side of their kennels and everybody was afraid of them. Dog3 don't have any particular time to go mad. They Just do it most any- time and anywhere. They are gener- ally around children when they do it. Hoys and dogs are almost Inseparable. They like each others' company. Thai's the reason so many youngsters are bitten. Pew grown people are attacked. Thirteen children have been bitten by dogs in Wllmette in the past year. That's exactly thirteen too many. Dogs are fine animals. They love you if you pet them—they continue to be fond if you kick them. They are made up of fidelity to their masters; the rest is hair and bones. iiut when it comes to measuring af- fection for dogs on one hand and chil- dren on the other the dog is out of eight. There are some fine blooded dogs owned by wealthy people who have more money than sense. These aris- tocratic dogs aro probably more en- Joyed than children, but only the weak minded consider the canines in that light. Dogs should be muzzled the entire year. It's the only wny to avoid children being bitten. You can't keop dogs and children apart. If they play together tho dog must be rendered harmless, The child can't conveniently wear armor plate or dog proof oiothing. Let's do tlic- sensible and safe thing. Scientist, street. Wll 7:45 p. m.

This year it come home with bst gss honor,—a silver medal, won by Miner Coburn in extempore read- ing. Since some members of tho school ssy. "We always hear about the victories, but never about the de- feats," it may be well to tell some- thing about the contest. The contest at Lake Forest, May 7. consisted of the three branches: ex- tempore reading; extempore speaking, and letter writing. The representa- tives from New Trier were for the first contest; Miner Coburn; for the second. Ruth Lfebcr and Earl Gam- ron; and for the third, Ma reel le Lovol. The preliminaries took place In the afternoon; the finals In the eve- ning. Announcements were made at tho supper'hour In tho men's com- mons whore all the delegates were en- tertained. -The Currency Law.- "Aaawas at Carthage." "Jain VaUean*" "The Bm- largo JUAT *What Latin Has Meant to Me." and "How to Stage a Play Successfully." The contestanl graded on the structure of their work as well as the delivery, the marls of the afternoon counting, as In the ease of the readers slso. First place was given to Robert Half of South Sand, who spoko humorously and effectively on the subject of "Staging a Play.- gnd second place to Clarence Morlssey of the Washington high school, Mil- waukee, who spoke on "Jean Vsl- Jean." Several criticised the Judges for the choke of the second award, as they felt that the essential points of Jean Valjean's character were not presented*, but the delivery was cer- tainly good, and the marks In the pre- liminaries were probably good. The letter writing contest con- sisted of but the one trial, that of the afternoon, when the subject given was tho writing of a friendly letter ttf a kinsman or intimate friend. The sub- ject matter of the letter was to be confidential with the committee, the -iters to be sent eventually to the, addressed. The schools ■ ones addressed.

I'flluM Ultt4 lit re.,der the f..l upper-clossmen and instructors when It was found that New Trier was to enter two finals: reading and letter writing. The contestants In extem- pore speaking felt earlier that they had lost a chance as they hod misun- derstood the length of time assigned for speaking, thinking tney had five instead of four minutes. Several con- jectures were mode »s to which school steed muni chance of winning the shield, and the decision was made In favor of Blooming on. as It had entrants In both reading and speak- ing, but it was de< >"«d otherwise by tho Judges. In tho oventng th« reading came first. The passages assigned were prose, descriptive nnd expositlonal. Two selections from Stevenson were assigned, one "Among the Pines" from "Travels with a Donkey"; another "Forest Fires." "Plowing" was ono subject, and "A Midsummer Night" another. This last roil to Miner Co- burn. He read with excellent ex- pression, tho only iiiiiw-uity being a little hesitation two or three times, and everyone felt that his medal was well earned. The winner of the first medal waa Emily Carlgulst of Bloom- ington. The other schools represented wero Deorfield, West Division high school, Milwaukee, nnd Oak Park. The extempore speaking contest fol- lowed. There we're ten entrants, two from each school, the schools repre- :; nted being: Bloomlngton, South Mom!. Washington xchool, Milwaukee, Hammond, Ind., nnd the Waller school, Chicago. Eight boys nnd two girls spoke. The time limit, was five minutes, the subjecth such on-;s ns, Valeno Borden of Oak Park, a silver medal to Bertram Skinner of Lane Technical high school, Chicago. It was later learned that tho new Trier representative had third place. The shield was given to South Bend, which won ten points. Bloomlngton came next with nine points; Oak Park, Inst with eight. New Trier tied with three other schools for fourth place. With more planning In advance, there ts no reason why New Trier should <not come off victorious as last year. It has established a reputation which it would be unfortunate to lose. The watchword is evidently practice long In advance of the actual contest. The athletic fields are scenes of busy contests just now. A tennis tournament between members of the school is going on all this week, and track and baseball for regular, niid- get and class teams are .taking place between New Trier and adjoining schools.
