They actually bury themselves in their books, and the result is that that when they get through college they don't know a thing about social life They should mingle a little frivolity with their studies-in other words, they should fiirt q little"

TOLLEsTON.

In justice to the town board and
people of Tolleston In general it must
be said that there never was a petition
presented by the citizens to the town
board asking the board to compel the
South Shore to furnish better service.
On the contrary a petition was circu-
lated asking the board to install again
the hourly service. But the board Sc
cured something better-a forty min
ute service. People OF Tolleston you
must not forget that our town is no
metropolis yet, and we cannot expect
the service the city of Chicago has.
Presto!
