Ifor four years you have been under the guidance Northwestern University of your high school instructors. Your days have been planned for you in great detail, your food and shelter have been furnished by your ELMER C. RICH, B. E. parents, and your responsibilities have been few. With the granting of Mauuaf Arlx our high school diploma you will exchange all this security and these N. Ill., State Teachers College well planned activities for a new freedom. You will be free to choose your actions as you see tit. But with this freedom also goes a great responsibility. You alone will be responsible for determining whether you are to become a sucessful, useful citizen. There are many oppor- tunities today as there have always been, but to attain success in any venture is not easy. One does not rise to the top in a day or even a year. Success comes step by step with periods of careful planning and hard work between the steps. Too often we look at the boss and wish MAMIE C, ROLLINS, B, A., we had his job, when, as a matter of fact, we would be completely M, A,-Sf-if-nfp 55 Mafbpmufipg crushed by his responsibility. We should not hope for opportunities University of Chicago to come too soon, but should rather hope that they stay away until we are prepared for them. DANIEL V' WERHAN-.H A' The greatest asset which you can have, and one which will almost S 'I Sf f am!

Nagle, for years a successful business man in this community, is president of the school board, a position he has held for the past six years. The courage and fairness with which he has met administrative problems have caused his services to be of inestimable value. On all occasions he has been a true friend to the school. Mr. Williaiia Tonyan has served on the board since the school was organized eleven years ago. A farmer who has lived in this vicinity all his life, he understands our local problems. He was active in promoting the school district enlargement last spring. Unfaltering in his efforts for local educational improvement, Mr. Tonyan has been a very efhcient board member. Dr. Arthur G. Highgate became a board member in 1936. His keen interest in student welfare led to the administering of health tests for all high school students last year. Dr. Highgate practiced dentistry in the local community for many years. Re- cently he accepted a position as advertising manager with the Klove Tool Company of Chicago. Mr. Laddic Raska was elected to membership on the board in I93S, and during the past year he has been board secretary. With unswerving interest he has watched the growth and develop- ment of the school. His garage at the intersection of Grand Avenue and 59A is a community center, and Mr. Raska is well ac- quainted with community problems. Mr. Charles Brainard was appointed as a member of the board in the fall of 1939, to fill the vacancy left by the late Thomas E. Graham. For many years Mr. Brainard has been a prominent figure in the community life of Round Lake. His years of active service in this vicinity have provided for him a keen foresight and business acumen that will be of great benefit to the school. To appreciate thoroughly our high school sym- phony, one needs must know the high notes. The class of '40 is an unusually tafented group, but as in all groups, there are those whose record of accomplish- ment places them a little higher than others on the scale. For scholastic attainment we point with pride to the record of Gerald Bauer. Of our girls, Irene De- Laby has shown unusual athletic prowess. Lenora Fisher ranks first among our girl musicians. Lenora, too, has contributed much to our welfare work. jane George is conceded our most outstanding actress. Phyllis Johnson, our most comely maid, has been active especially in music. Alberta Kanthack, our most popular girl, has been active in all phases of school life. Mike Klemens is our out- standing thespian. As an athlete, Eugene Koch ranks at the top of our list. Rare good humor is personified in Billy McDonough, who has been popular among girls and boys alike. He has contributed much to our music and dramatic organizations. Burwell Paustian has the distinc- tion of being our most handsome young man. He is to be admired, too, for his fine sportsmanship and athletic ability. Ward Richardson has been chosen for a place among our high notes for his exceptional talent in music. Where there is music, there is Ward. Margaret Schaitz has main- tained an enviable scholastic record during her four years. i 0 1 x .ga EMIL HOSPODAR Commercial Club 1, Secy.- Treas.g Boxing lg Football 13 G. Club lg Pres. Sen.

After four years of achievement in high school studies and activities, it becomes necessary for a student to graduate. Thus as the 1940 term draws to a close, we, the freshmen of 1936, are forced to assume the responsibilities entailed by such endeavor. At this time we are confronted with the disheartening task of terminating personal contacts with those few who have become so dear to us through daily association. Our indebtedness to the faculty who have helped us attain our seniorship cannot be acknowledged in the small space given us any more than an encyclopedia can be condensed. The participation of seniors in sports exemplihes the true sporting spirit prevalent among us. A veritable host of fourth- yenr students udorns Grant's roster of athletes. It suffices to say that we were well represented on the varsity squads. The Red and White, symblemntic of sportsmanship .md courage, has risen to glorious heights and has succumbed to the attack of superior opponents.

Members of the class of 1940 have for four years exhibited unusual theatrical talent in various forms of dramatics. Perhaps no high school play has been more enthus- iastically received than our Over the Rainbow. lt came as a pleasing climax to four strenuous weeks of rehearsal. In addition to sports and dramatics the seniors' scholastic record as a class is excellent. We are a normal group of indi- viduals, painstakingly efiicient in regard to assignments and other responsibilities. Qi. 1 I x , N I ' . 'i' x' '.

We entered as forty-six freshmen, subdued and appalled, in the fall of 1936. Standing at the brink of the gigantic maelstrom of high school life, we looked askance at the clock-like precision of the workings of our new found institution. Could we ever hope to be absorbed by this smooth-running monster! What gratitude we felt for a kindly word, a sympathetic smile. Quickly our adjust- ment followed. Seemingly, at once, we were absorbed in club organizations. Our classes passed pleasantly, and the trepidation we had so keenly experienced in the be- ginning was gone forever. After a few weeks our class organization was com- pleted with the selection of four very elated class ollicers. Under the guidance of these officers and two sympathetic faculty advisers, we began to spread out. Six of our boys found their way to the football held. No freshman ever displayed more valor nor added more glory to his class than did those youngsters. Later, when the basketball court beckoned, nine freshman stalwarts made the sacrifice. Nor was all of our accomplishment in the direction of brawn. Two of our girls and six boys entered the music organizations. Before the school year ended, we realized, with some misgivings o-f course, that we had become a vital force in the high school life. Our sophomore year found us contributing even more to the well being of the school. Our athletes displayed startling finesse. Ten of our classmates made a brilliant showing in basketball. Our social life took on new importance. An occasional date was not an unusual thing. Shirley had conhded that she was much enamored by Chuck Sampson. Yes, we had indeed grown up. All of our innermost hopes and aspirations have been culminated in this, our junior year. There has been no stalemate in our activity. We have accepted proudly the effuse congratulations of our I-IIIX !III.IIR I' l'.:XIxI IXIJIII7LIx Xi SIIIRI IN Isl I I'II N IXXIIN I I IIN I :Ill IQIIXK I.. Ilxatull X IJIXX in Vliufu ', .

Our problems were not those that could be solved by any algebraic equation. x , Where is room one? How do you work this locker combination? Shall I take science with Miss Zachary or with Mr. Christ? Did he say, 'Ninth hour'? Those are not problems for higher mathematics! But we solved them, and we survived. Fifty-four strong, we felt equal to almost any task back there in the fall of 1938. But faced by a battery of grim teachers and a life seething with regulation, our courage simply oozed from us. It was not long, however, before our faint hearts began beating stronger under the stimulant of athletics, club activities, and social events. Thirteen of our voices joined the glee clubs. We especially enjoyed music, and our talent in that direction was above the average. The athletic clubs, that is the G. A. A. and the G Club waxed stronger through the addi- tion of seven girls and eleven boys-all freshmen. In the fall of '39 we came back patronizing freshmen and seniors alike-to the disgust of all concerned. The withering epithet silly sophomore has been hurled at us more than once. In defiance we plunged into affairs outside the classes. We'll show 'em! was our motto, and show them we did. Doris Brandenburg's report card showing four A's was greeted with the pleasantly surprised looks of upperclassmen. At last the sophomores have settled down to real study. Yet we are not a group to be remembered for our great industry. The casual observer might classify us as the leisure class, however our record of accomplishment is indeed impressive. Our assembly program revealed some of the remarkable talent to be found on our roster. For clever entertainment, we know of nothing that surpasses the terpsichorean art as interpreted by Marcella Linzell. The lilting voices of Doris Iiartelt and Erika Leuschner were received with wildest acclaim. The milk-drinking contest, so easily won by Don Grischeau, reveals that we i sornomonfs -1' ly 'J ,Wtflj I IH IIA? I IIX IxI,I'.XI XI Sony.-'I'1'c11f111'u1' r l -Ja .. I1111 N1 11. XUIIlIINIxk', .X.

Surreptitously eavesdropping, we hear that they are telling of freshman misdemeanors. Was her face red when she barged into the boys' dressing roomly' Did you hear about the one who asked, 'How much is water with ice in it?' 'i The prize was the babe that said, 'If germs have no eyes or noses, how can they get into the food? ' Now the spotlight is centered on a group of fresh- man boys. One of them, noticing a pretty girl-this phase of interest has developed early-offers glibly, Say, she's some babe! Shouts of Bob loves Shirley! Bob loves Shirley! are mingled with the unfortunate boy's protests. These are the freshmen. Each crop, though of greater quantity, seems a little smaller, a little greener, and a little more dumbfounded than the last, though this year's crop eventually grows up to harrass those of years to come. Still freshman is a name to inspire pride. What great man has not thrilled to it? Through the centuries a great march of freshmen has made our presidents, authors, motion pic- ture stars, and philosophers. - -' Nor have they been lacking in initiative. The glee club, band, orchestra, student council, G. A. A., G Club, athletic teams, journalism, and other organizations have been improved by many of their number. , We shall long remember the initiation of the current year class. Gur sympathy went out to Jimmy, whose voice suddenly failed in the midst of his S0l1g. The apparent yells of derision that went up when Ozzie, in his war paint, burst loudly into song, were really yells of admira- tion-admiration for the courage and good sportsmanship that make our freshmen just lovable human beings. Without them to taunt and deride what a dreary place our halls would become. Nr-rsiml Rim: N. I'IiiIIipN. I, I'k'Ill'wbIl, XY. KuwIii1g, IQ. Iizilivr, If IIiivi'gei'.

The following weela marlxed Ciranfs first defeat. Mel lenry won a I3 to U tleeision on their home lield. ljlll' next opponents were St. Nlary's of XVoodstoelx. Although the liull- dogs outplayed their opponents consistently, they were again defeated in 11 I3 to 7 linish. llomeeoming followed-the first homecoming game in which Grant hail heen seored upon. liarrington shattered our cherished precedent with a 7 to 0 victory. Gene Kogli, half-haclx. was the star performer on the following Saturday in the contest at Northbrook. Despite our superior playing, we suffered a 7 to 6 defeat. Koch, llorgensen, and Paustian shared equally in the honors at liensenvillz This was a six-man game which ended in an ignoniinious defeat for liensenville in a score of 42 to 13. On Oetoher Z7 the Bulldogs defeated a sturdy alumni team from Salem, Xlfiseonsin, to the tune of 33 to 6. ln the last game of the season Barrington succumbed to our hrawn in a Z0 to 6 score, and we concluded our story with the traditional happy ending. Paustian and llaques were selected for places on the Lake County All-Star Team. Wheeler, a fast and heady player, sutlered an ankle iniury early in the season and was tunable to return to the line-up. The SCIISOI1 WLIS H011 the dlSl1Cfll fCI1lI1g failure Iliflf Il1C SCOYC sheet might lead one to suppose. The bulldogs did brilliant playing in every game. In the face of defeat their morale remained high, and they showed a splendid spirit of co-operation and sportsmanship. Grant's second team presented an impressive record. Defeated only once during the season, they promise some terial for next year's varsity line-up.

Cheers burst from the grand- stand, but before the cheering has died away, these boys are under the other basket. And so it goes-each team being cheered from its own side of the bleachers-- each team with its own feminine admirers hoping that Tom or Bob or Bill will make a basket. Then. as the sharp report from the pistol ends the game. and the teams hurry to their respective dressing-rooms, it is impossible to tell from their faces which is the victor, for both are smiling and wise-cracking. Grant's team, althou-'h not so svcctacular as teams of other 'earS, had its 'ood sw l 3 la times. its victories and defeats. and its display of teamwork. the greatest factor of school life.

In the bouts at St. Catherine's in Racine early in tl1e season, the boys made an impres- sive showing. Cheouskc, Richardson, and Wilson were winners in their respective divisions.

What function is not bet- tered by the appearance of the band in the red and white uniforms? Composed of sixty pieces, the band has made many ap- pearances this yearg the most important of them were the Christmas and Spring concerts. URCHESTRA Students whose interest lies in the modern type of music land outlet for their talent in the orchestra. livery Tuesday during the sixth period one may hear the orchestra swinging out with the current favorites. These swingsters play for all social hours and school dances. Through the music provided during the year, they have gained the reputation of being the best swing band Grant has ever produced. The student leader is Bill McDonough, who also plays first trumpet. jim Savage and Frank Sebastian as first and second trombonists respectively have furnished strong sup- port. The saxophone section, an essential to any swing band, is composed of Wartl Richard- son as first alto, jane George as second tenor, Lenora Fisher as third alto, and John Perren as fourth tenor. Rhythm is supplied by James Ziegler at the piano, Bill Schmidt, bass, Melvin Franks, drums, and Charles Friedle, banjoist.

P CUMMERCIAL CLUB All members of the commercial department, a large and active unit, are included in the Commercial Clubg consequent- ly, it is a large organization. It is assumed that students in this department are the potential business leaders of the near future and the activities of the group are planned in such a way that the student will become a more thorough and efficient worker in the business world. W'hile the ultimate goal of these individuals is business proficiency, it cannot be said that their endeavor is all drudgery. Each year they offer an evening of wholesome fun at their carnival. Their Christmas party is an occasion for festive en-- tertainment and the exchange of gifts. Their dances are always joyous affairs. The corps of ofhcers consists of George Renehan, presidentg Robert Ritter, vice presidentg and Emil Hospodar, secretary and treasurer. THE CLUB Since its inception among the club organizations, the G Club has been one of the most active and influential of the high school clubs. Its membership is drawn from the ranks of varsity letter men. These boys through various social functions have raised funds for the purchase of new basketball suits for the current season. Each year their activity has been centered upon the addition of new equipment for the department of athletics. The organization has done much to instill within its mem- bers ideals of fellowship and cooperative activity. The successful management of the club during the present year has been due to the efforts of an efiicient corps of officers, consisting of Eugene Koch, presidentg Bill Zeigler, vice-presi- dent, and Billy Walk, secretary-treasurer. I 1 W4 1,0 RA.A The major purpose of the G. A. A. is to stimulate interest in girls' ath- letics and to promote higher ideals of health and sportsmanship. These girls besides winning awards, learn to work with their teammates, follow directions and rules, and develop alertness. Experience in cooperation and fellowship is also provided. To become a member of the organization, a girl must earn 100 points by becoming a playing member of a team. The captainship of a team entails extra credit points. When a girl has earned 400 points, she is awarded her numerals. After earning 600 points, she receives her letter. A medal is the reward for earning 1000 points. Baseball, tennis, hockey, and basketball are the sports in which the girls may participate. Swimming parties and social events are provided for entertainment, and meetings are held regularly throughout the year. The local club, consisting of forty members, is affiliated with the State or- ganization. Alberta Kanthack is the club president, and Irene DeLaby is secre- tary-treasurer. Miss Ruth Anselm is faculty adviser. HUME ECUNUMICS The Home Economics Club, an all-girl organization, is one of our largest club groups. All girls who are regularly enrolled in sewing or cooking classes are eli- gible for membership. One of the high lights on our social celendar is the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet, which is managed and financed entirely by the girls of this department. The display of interesting proiects and the style show given each year as a part of the open house program are the results of the cooperative efforts of these girls. With Miss Zachary as adviser, Alberta Kanthack as president, Eunice Molidor as vice-president, and Marjorie Kirk as secretary, the club thrives under able management. IUURNALISM CLUB In its second year, the Journalism Club has advanced in both membership and ability. With Jane George, editor-in-chief, Kathleen Pearson, city editor, LaVerne Lipka, club editor, and Signe Olsen, society editor, the club has made a place for itself in Grantis busy activity life. The club has contributed a page to the Waukegan News-Sun each Week. Leaders in community life have been interviewed and publicized, and all school news has been printed on that page. In Mr. Orr of the faculty and Mr. McNearny of the News-Sun staff, the club has had excellent counsel. 'I xx va 4. v v r?-xx x 1 I X 1 QF' ., Y x DEBATE Nlr. Chairman, Wortliy' Opponents, and Friends: The question for discussion today is 'Resolvedz That the Fed- eral Government should own and operate the railroads. ' Thus opened the debating season for l940 with the Palatine teams furnishing the opposition. Other schools on our debate calendar were Des Plaines on February 23, a re- turn argument with Palatine on March 1, Kenosha on March 6, and XVaukegan on March 22 and 25. ln all eases these were non-decision contests. Lenora Fisher, -lane George, and Calvin Rich supported the aHirmative argument, while the negative support consist- cd of Marcella Linzell, Kathleen Pearson, and Vivian Keating. IUNIUR RED CRUSS More than seventy-tive per cent of the student body have been members of the junior Red Cross during the past year. For the First time in the history of the club, a large percentage of the year's membership has been boys. The Red Cross Council, a new division, has been estab- lished as an executive board for the club. Three council members are selected from the senior class, and two are chosen from each of the other classes. All workers in the organization have shown a keen in- terest in the welfare projects that have been undertaken, among which was the binding of Braille books for the blind. DRAMATICS The stage manager's cry of Curt.1in! awakened us to the fact that the time had come for us to go on the stage. Dirty Hands had begun, and it was our task to make the characters convincing. Our knees trembled: our memories seemed suddenly to fail us. lt was our First appearance. Looking backward to that performance, we remember it as one of the most exciting experiences of our lives. Rehearsals had been just one big laugh after another, but tonight was different. All laughter was gone, and only anxious faces were in evidence behind the scenes. However, our waning eonfadence returned with the first outburst of laughter from the audience. The all-star cast presented the play in such a finished manner that it is destined to be remembered as one of the very best of our high school produc- tions. Then came the seniors with their smashing hit, A Rainy Day. With this highly entertaining comedy as a vehicle and a talented group of thespians in the roles, the seniors brought a happy ending to our dramatic season. THE STAFF-U The members of the staff truly appreciate the loyalty and cooperation shown us by the student body, the faculty and administration, and the patrons of the school in publishing this volume of the 'I'rumpetcr. We have put forth our very best efforts to produce Ll publication that will be worthy of the confidence you have placed in us. In the years to come we hope that you may read these pages and be gladdened by memories recalled by this picture of one short year of our high school life. lfmil llospotlar I litlimrs Alberta Kanthacls Kathleen Pearson ..

It was or anized last fall b scveral senior . 3 . . g V girls, and it is now recognized as one of the more popular groups, since it has done much to instill school spirit among students. Not only does the Pep Club arouse school spirit among students and aid the G Club in its undertakings, but it has become an important part of our social life. On December 16 the club held a very successful program dance at which more than one hundred guests were in attendance. It is expected that this dance, since it proved so popular, will become an annual dance. The girls, each displaying the badge, a red ribbon, inspire school loyalty by their group attendance at the various sports events and their genuine enthusiasm for all things athletic. GIRLS' FIELD HUCKEY Girls in mere wisps of blue shorts and white shoes run back and forth on a field between two white goal posts. To the un- observing watcher it would seem that this game is merely a hodge-podge of motion with little or no point. However, closer observation will reveal a basic form beneath each move- ment, a form which is retained throughout the game. Consisting of two teams of eleven players each, three full- backs, two wings, three half-backs, three forwards, and a goalie, the game is played with the point of knocking the ball inside the goal territory. The goalie is the most important player on the field, for it is her duty to allow no ball to pass the goal line. An enervating, enthusiastic game, field hockey is probably one of our permanent activities. STUDENT CUUNCII As a school increases in size, student participation in ad- ministrative matters is often desirable. For this purpose the student council was organized in the early fall of the current year. The body consists of twenty-one members, students whose scholastic record is above average. Regular meetings are held on the first and third Monday of each month. These meetings are given over to the discussion and oftentimes the solution of student problems. Two students from each class are selected as members, the class officers automatically become membersg and one member is selected from the entire student body by the principal. The members of this group are made to realize that the student couneiI's success depends entirely upon the courage and open-mindedness with which student problems are conducted by its personnel.

Conzfzlinzfnfs Complimenfs Of A R N O L D ' S of Carb Grocery and Markel THE PASSING OF JENNY ATTAGIRL How is she, Doctor? I-Ias her condition improved? It was a young man, well- dressed and with a grave manner, talking to Doctor Stillwell. To his inquiry the doctor replied, Well, Sir, I couldn't say for sure about poor Genevieve, but her high- ness is very ill. I-Ier illness may prove fatal. The young millionaire, Robert Montbuck, walked out with a worried look on his face. His chauffeur await- ed him with his limousine by the gate. Robert got into the ear and told the chauf- feur to drive him home. It was but a short drive to the home, an old mansion in Ken- tucky. The immense parlor with its huge fireplace at one end, its heavy, rich tapestries, and its sturdy colonial furni- ture, typified it as a pre-Civil War home. When Robert arrived at the mansion, he went im- mcdiately to the veranda where his mother, who, too, showed the strain of worry, greeted him. Oh, Robert, she said, how is Jenny? Is she any better? No, Mother, he replied, l'0lIfillIl!'t! SCHIVIIDT'S CONFECTIONERY Fllllllfllill Sz'rz'ife and HARDWARE Phone Fox Lake 4251 CHAS.

Oh, there's the phone! Hello. Oh, it's you, Mr. Frethill. Yes, I was down there about half an hour ago. Doctor says that her condition is very critical. We'll know for sure by six o'clock this evening. All right. I'll let you know after dinner. Good-bye. That was Mr. Frethill, Mother. He called to inquire about Jen- ny. Oh, Mother, he said wringing his hands in an- guish, if-if Jenny dies, what shall I do? The maid then interrupted them with the call that din- ner was ready. Both Bob and his mother ate in a melan- choly silence. They had near- ly Hnished when the tele- phone rang, and Bob anxious- ly answered it. I-Iello! Yes, this is Mr. Montbuck. Oh, Doctor, how is she? What? Dead? Oh, Doctor- and he placed the telephone on the table. Oh, Mother, he cried, Jenny is dead. Chok- ed with emotion, he went to his room. An hourflater Mr. Mont- buck returned to the room. Going to the telephone, he spoke quietly. Kenwood 2351. Hello, Mr. Kaliwart. This is Robert Montbuck.

A faroff violin Playing high, rare, spirit- like. A mountain top Seen through a purple haze at sunset .... A misty song Sung by a lovely voice. A simple song That's soothing, unaffected. Sitting in darkness With the murmur of voices about. The opening of a flower Whose flamboyant, gypsy beauty Needs no setting Other than that of the barren desert. . . The evening star at twilight When Aphrodite looks down Upon the puppet mortals With an amused, tolerant smile. . . Or, having waited for a small eternity Seeing a fawn come warily to drink Where other mortal man Has never been. . . An unexpected glance at beauty In the unconscious face of a lovely, young girl When, with half-parted lips, She views a sweet surprise. The first rose of spring on a dewy morning When the spider-webs are pearly With the beads that the night-pixies Have strung for their queen. Ecstasy lies in quiet things, And these are ecstasy. -Kathleen Pearson Cfllllfllilllfllfi C0,,,l,1i,,,c,,ts of of TED 85 DOROTHY GRANDE CLEANERS George Thompson, Agent Ingleside Illinois Phone Grayslake S251 CHARLES HARBAUGH LUMBER COMPANY EL'r'ryfbing fo Build Anylbingn LUMBER, MILLWORK, BUILDING MATERIALS AND FUEL BUILDING HARDWARE PAINTS ROW BOATS BUILT-TO-ORDER Round Lake, Illinois Phone R.

She had good reason to feel happyg she had just been to the bank and checked on their bank account. Shep had never told her that there was five hun- dred dollars to the good on their account. He had promised her a trip to visit her mother in California as soon as enough money was saved above expenses. Perhaps Shep was keeping it as a surprise. Anyway Elsie decided not to tell her husband of her visit to the bank. With a joyful heart she set the bundles on her husband's desk in the parlor. Supper was on the table when Shep entered the dining room at seven o'clock. Elsie was listening to the radio, for Shep always stayed at the zoo later on Tuesday nights than on others. Elsie could never understand why, except that maybe the ani- mals were hungrier on Tuesdays. Shep was more talkative than was usually his habit at a meal. He talked about everything from the animals at the zoo to the latest war news. My desk needs cleaning out. I'll do that when I finish eating, announced Shep at length. No, Shep, you let me do that, and you go read thc paper. When she was finished, a letter at the bottom of the drawer caught her eye. Opening it she read to herself: Mr. Burns: Upon careful examination I find that Elsie, case 1105, has contracted an incurable disease which is rare in medical history.

It was torn away at the bottom. With a pallid face Elsie lay down on the nearest couch. I-Ier heart was beating rapidly. Elsie recalled that the doctor did act strangely when she had last called at his cflice. Now she knew why those dizzy spells came to her during the day. XVhy hadn't Shep told her of the letter? But it was just as well, if she was sick. Elsie found no rest that night, but turned and tossed with devils before her eyes. Day after day Elsie's condition grew more serious until one morning she eouldn't get out of bed. She wondered how many more days she would live. An attending physi- cian proclaimed hcr gravely sick. Elsie is -worrying. which makes her ease worse. he told her husband the next evening. Elsie, something is bothering you, said Shep as he entered the room. It's terrible, confessed Elsie. I have an incurable disease. Here, read this piece of a letter I found in your desk. Shep laughed until there were tears in his eyes. Don't tell me this is the trouble, he roared. Don't you remember the lion at the zoo we named after you? Why, yes, that was my idea, his wife answered faintly. XVell, cheer up. Elsie died last night. ' -Robert Sayles.
