FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1923 HIKING TO §t7 LOUIS % When we were younger we used to go on long hikes. It was so long ago that we never "hiked;" we just plain "walked. The word "hiked" has come in since those golden days of long ago. We walked from South Haven, Michigan, to Benton Harbor and back again. The distance varies from thirty to fifty miles or thereabouts. We walked to Ben- ton Harbor along country roads juid returned by way of the lake shore. We started out with vim and enthusiasm,, our hearts in tune with the spirit of Whitman's lines: Afoot and light-hearted, I take to thg_Qpgn_i:oad, Healthy, free, the world be- fore me, The long brown path before me _____________. • _^__ ^=:1^e^mg-w Henceforth I ask not good- fortune,â€" "* ~ I myself am good-fortune, Strong-and content I travel the open road. But it was not long before the soles of our feet began to burn, and blisters developed. The poor muscles began to complain, to protest against the unwonted use. We tramped on, however, finally reaching___SoJith JHLaven. ^Having engaged a room at a convenient boarding house, we bathed the aching members and soothedâ€"our ardent soles, gapped a little, I believe. The hour for the return came. Well do I remember the heavi- ness of our feet and the soreness of our muscles. As has been said, we returned via the beach. Only by sheer, perseverance, by lifting and dropping one leg after mnother, did we finally arrive at South Haven. EBut it was a wonderful ex- perience to talk about, and we made the-most^ol it. We hope that the Wilmette Scouts who _Jo St Tennis-will live to tell.the tale. WAY BACK IN 1898 Unless you are one of the Olde Towne Folks of Wilmette you don't know from dir*ect ex- r__[_ ] how things were here way' back in '98. Did you see Brethold's front sidewalk floating down to North Evans- Ton? Did you see the boys in bathing suits .swimming on what is now dry land? Twenty-five years ago is a long time back. A quarter of a cen- tury. Auld lang syne. When you and I were young, Maggie. Sil- ver threads among the gold. The old oaken bucket. And all such sentiments. All the old-timers will be there on April 10th. At the annual Reunion in the Woman's Club you'll see (if you're one of the Olde Towne Folkes; otherwise you're not invited) your gray- haired fellow citizen. They'll be tottering round the floor in waltz and two-step. Maybe some of them lived in Wilmette in '93 and "having spent the day at the World's Fair yawned their way back to Wilmette via the C. & N. W. at midnight or there- abouts. Is this year your twenty-fifth in Wilmette? If it is, tell the news to James Watson at 212 Woodbine Avenue and you'll get a bid to the 1923 Reunion. ing held on Wednesday evening, February 28, there was a discus- sion of the delivery of mails in a section now without sidewalks, of ways and means of getting money for the library, of opening up Cen- tral avenue to Ridge avenue.
