p. 2- Sparta, whose fame extends over the civilized world, sends a message of thanks to her sons in Chicago for the huge church clock which they have presented to her.

Mr. Nicholas Karelas, who received the letter of appreciation from the church and the civil authorities, reports that $2,714.90 was spent in the purchase of the clock and for installing it and $395.50 for transportation, and that the balance of $355, the surplus of the Spartan contribution, will be donated to the Spartan Athletic Club of Sparta.

Congratulations to the Spartans of Chicago.
