You might be saying, who in the world is Daniel
Green? Why is he special? Daniel is the speller
from Ms Cleveland’s 4th grade class who won
the school spelling bee and the district bee. He is
AMAZING!!!! Another favorite is his best friend,
Andrew Schober, who got 3rd place in the school

What is the Spelling Bee?
A spelling bee is a competition in which contestants are asked to spell a broad selection of
words, usually with a varying degree of difficulty.
The Cycle of the Spelling Bee
The spelling bee is made up of levels that go
from your classroom bee to the national bee.
A certain amount of spellers move on to the the
next bee. As I said, it starts in your classroom.
The top 5 spellers from the unofficial classroom
bee move on to the vocabulary preliminary test,
which is the only part other than the permission
slip that is a paper-and-pencil . If you pass the
test, you move on to your school bee. The top
10-12 spellers from that bee move on to the
district bee. Next, the top speller from that bee
moves on to the part-county bee. For our location, that is the North Cook County bee. After
that, the top 3 move on to the regional bee. The
top speller from that bee moves on to the national bee, in Washington D.C, where hundreds of
kids from all over the country compete.

Two Amazing Spellers: Daniel Green and Andrew Schober
Two Amazing Spellers and Their Experiences
As I said before, we have two amazing spellers in
Dewey’s 4th grade, from Mrs. Cleveland’s class.
They both got very high places in the school
bee, the district bee, and the county bee. Let me
introduce them.
Andrew Schober
We’ve told you about him, you’ve wondered
about him. It’s time to meet the real Andrew
Schober, 4th grade wonder (my twin brother)...
Here are some things he said:
“It was really exciting to compete against Daniel.
Especially when he won.”
“I like math and science, but I really like spelling.”
“If I won the national, I would give some of the
money to my family, and the feeling would be
awesome.”
“My favorite word is supererogation.”
Daniel Green
We’ve told you about him, you’ve wondered
about him. It’s time to meet the real Daniel
Green, 4th grade wonder…
Here are some things he said:
“If I liked anything more than spelling it would
be swimming. I swim at the YWCA.”
“My two favorite foods are mac and cheese and
steak but not together.”
“If I could go anywhere I would go to Arizona.”
“ If I won the National, I would donate a lot of
money to Dewey, my family, and charities like
St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital.”
“I don’t know what my favorite word is, but my
least favorite word is philately”
Details for the Spelling Bee
Just so you know, the bee is usually for 3rd-8th
graders (although there was a 2nd grader in the
County Bee, but he’s from a gifted school). If
you are in K-2, and you are interested, you can
keep practicing, for there might be a bee in your
future! (Just so you know, there is no spelling bee
at Nichols, but there is one at Haven.)
Wrapping Up
We need to wrap up, so let’s sum up the facts:
•A spelling bee is a competition in which
contestants compete by spelling words
•The cycle goes from your willingness to do it
to Washington D.C.
•Daniel Green is AWESOME!!!
•Andrew Schober is AWESOME!!!
•The pronouncer at the County Bee was
hilarious!!!
•Andrew is my twin
•Daniel is his best friend
•The bee is for 3-8 graders
In this article I will be telling you about all the
renewable energy types. It’s important because
using petroleum makes global warming. Enjoy!
Tesla is developing solar roof tiles because when
people go and buy solar panels they end with
big bulky boxes on their roof and they probably don’t like it. Tesla has tackled this problem.
They’re making roof shingles that are small solar
panels. Plus they look like regular roof tiles.
The Nuclear Option
Terrapower is a new company is run by one of
Bill Gates’s partners and now Bill Gates is investing the Terrapower nuclear reactor. This reactor
is unlike any other nuclear reactor; it runs on
depleted uranium. Depleted uranium is the
waste that nuclear energy plants leave behind.
There are a lot of tanks of it in America but this
reactor runs on it. The uranium rods only need
to be replaced every 10 years; they will be using
regular nuclear power plants waste. Yeah good
solution, huh!
Geothermal
You see that picture below? You see that smoke?
That’s not smoke; it’s steam. How geothermal
works is that it uses the heat underground.
That heat is about 55 degrees Fahrenheit all
year round. They use that heat to power the
generator.
And that’s about it! Who knows, maybe you’ll be
the next National champion!!!

Biomass
Biomass is not a very good solution because
burning trash releases deadly gasses into the air
which is still bad for the environment. Which
reminds me, I should tell you how they use
biomass: they burn wood, trash, etc. just like
coal except it doesn’t pollute as much as coal, but
is still bad for the environment.

Barack Obama,
President
of the U.S.A.
“ To be doing good
deeds is man’s most
glorious task ”
— Sophocles
By Graham Johnson
Do you want to be President? You can if you
work hard and never give up like Barack
Obama. If you do that, you might be President
some day.
Barack Obama inspired people that you can
accomplish anything if you work hard. Barack
Obama was born in 1961 in Hawaii. His mother
was from Kansas and his father was from Kenya.
His mother wanted to stay in Hawaii, but his
father wanted to go back to Kenya so they split
up. Barack Obama lived with his grandparents in
Hawaii so he could get an education. After eight
years of not seeing him, his father came to visit
for one month.
Barack Obama showed that it doesn’t matter
what race you are, you are still equal. I mean,
look at him, he was the first black President.
Barack Obama wanted to become President
and his father died and he did not give up on
being President.
3rd/4th Grade Science Fair
Barack Obama could have given up on being
President because of his father’s death, but he
didn’t give up. Instead, he persevered. He worked
hard and lived up to his dreams. I think kids
should learn about Barack Obama, because he was
the first black President, and he never gave up.

Land Speed Record Crash
Quarterback
By Leo Webster
By Grant Aaron
There are many talented athletes in the NFL, especially the quarterbacks. I’m going to tell you a
little about them.
Richard Hammond is a British presenter for an
old TV show called Top Gear. On September
20th, 2006, he tried to beat the Land Speed
record. The British land speed record is the
fastest land speed achieved by a vehicle in the
United Kingdom, as opposed to one on water
or in the air.
Everything was going so smoothly until he had
a CRASH!!!!!!!! Here is his story...
When Richard Hammond was age 36 he tried
to take down the land speed record. He had
to go over 300.3 mph in a car to break the
record. That record was set by Colin Fallows on
July 6th 2006. They both (Colin Fallows and
Richard Hammond) were driving a car called
The Vampire, which is capable of going 370
mph because it is jet-propelled...meaning it has
jet engines!! Richard Hammond was going 280
mph, but a nail in the tire caused the tire to
blow up and that caused car to tip over!!!
Tom Brady
In 16 NFL seasons, Tom Brady (QB for
the Patriots) threw 456 touchdowns and
152 interceptions.
Dak Prescott
In 1 NFL season, Dak Prescott (QB for the
Cowboys) has thrown 23 touchdowns and 4
interceptions.
Aaron Rodgers
In 12 seasons, Aaron Rodgers
(QB for the Packers) threw 297
touchdowns and 72 interceptions.
Ben Roethlisberger
In 13 NFL seasons, Ben Roethlisberger (QB
for the Steelers) has 301 touchdowns and 160
interceptions.
Jay Cutler
In 11 NFL seasons, Jay Cutler (QB for the
Bears) has thrown for a total of 205 career
touchdown and 146 interceptions.
Derek Carr
In 3 NFL seasons, Derek Carr (QB for the
Raiders) has thrown 81 touchdowns and 31
interceptions.
dinner. He ordered his favorite, “Cottage pie”
and when it arrived he said “how did you know
Cottage Pie is my favorite?”... he’d forgotten he
had ordered it from the menu!
Amazingly, he recovered without any major
issues!!! You maybe wondering how he survived.
Well it was just a big miracle. In truth, he
probably should be dead based on how bad the
crash was. The car was smashed to pieces so it’s
amazing he was in one piece.
Overall he is very lucky to be alive right now,
after his horrible crash and his comas and brain
problems. As you watch him now on TV you
couldn’t even tell he had a very terrible crash.
I think he’ll leave the record breaking to the
professional car drivers from now on and maybe
300 MPH is out of his reach!
Ambulances rushed to the scene of the crash
and with sirens blaring, they rushed Hammond to Leeds General Infirmary Unit. You’re
probably wondering, did he survive? Well he
was in a coma that lasted a long time. He had
some illnesses, and many brain problems. He
lost his memory, so couldn’t remember from
one minute to the next. One funny story from
hospital…..He was given a menu to order

Pokémon
By Caleb Contreras
I am sure you know what Pokémon is. In case
you don’t know, Pokémon is a Popular anime
and video game. It has 9 TV shows and 7 generations of videogames. (And a god.) So here’s the
Pokémon timeline of Pokémon. The 1990s is
where it all began with Pokémon...
The first games, Pokémon Red, Blue, and Green,
were a success in Japan and America. These first
games spawned tons of theories like Piikablu
and Mew under a truck. The next game was
Pokémon Yellow and the anime. The anime
starred the one and only Ash Ketchum!!!!!!!
Pokémon Yellow is based off the anime. A lot
of people were angry when playing this game,
mostly because their Pikachu wouldn’t evolve.
Next came Gen 2. This included Pokémon Gold,
Silver and Crystal. They also made an anime for
this new generation of Pokémon. Next is Gen 3.
Once again, new anime, new games. The new
games were Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Firered
page 4 • march 2017
Virtual Reality
By Julian Pamaran
and Leafgreen. Next is Gen 4, with Pokémon
games Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Heartgold and
Soulsilver. Also, new anime. Next is Gen 5, when
Pokémon Black and White came out, and new
anime as well.
Now we are going to present day. Let’s start with
Pokémon Black and White 2. Same game as the
original Black and White, but the evil organization, Team Plasma, was more organized.
Next is the Pokémon Revolution (just because
the games are in 3d)! This started with Pokémon
X and Y (my first Pokémon game). And once
again, new anime. Now to the most recent game,
Pokémon Sun and Moon. This new game has
so many new Pokémon, and I enjoyed the two
weeks and one day I played it!
So that’s the timeline of Pokémon games. And
don’t hate this article.
Do you want to turn your surroundings into a
spaceship, deep space, or an ocean? Well, virtual
reality is the answer. It is super awesome and
very high tech. You just put the goggles on and
you are in a space station and a spaceship. And,
you can connect to a computer and whatever
is on the computer will be seen in the headset.
The headset above is a Playstation 4 VR. You
have to connect it to a Playstation 4, and it will
have the game on the screen. It’s super high tech
and AWESOME!! Did you know that VR was
invented in 1965?

Uh oh...Pokémon, the global phenomenon.
You’re probably thinking, not that again! But,
there’s more than you think! Pokémon is one
popular game! It’s a game where you go around
catching beasts to battle. So far, I’ve gotten to
the elite 4 in Pokémon Sun and beaten Kahuna
Hala. Yep. Hala.. he was easy. I’ve also almost
beat the elite four but Khalili blasted me. As I
was saying… Pokémon is a popular franchise
that has many people play. Some of the games
are Red, Blue, Gold, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire,
Diamond, Pearl ,Black, White, Black 2, White
2, X, Y, Sun, Moon, and LOTS of apps and remakes such as Pokémon duel. Pokémon duel is
an awesome Pokémon trading figure game (tfg)
where you buy Pokémon figures and battle AI
and real players. I am pretty good but not a
master… except I got a rare Pikachu.
Exoplanets:
Revival to
the Destruction
of Earth
By Robert Razdolsky
Some of you may know that, recently, NASA discovered seven Earth-sized planets, some of which
might contain water. They are called Exoplanets.
This article is about the Exoplanets.
Exoplanets are planets that orbit stars outside
of the solar system. The solar system contains
fifteen bodies: the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth,
Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, the
asteroid belt, and the dwarf planets (Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, Eris, and Ceres).
There might be other planets in other galaxies
that contain water, an ozone layer, a strong atmosphere, and maybe even plants and extra-terrestrials. A planet in the galaxy Alpha Centauri
might contain water, as in Avatar, (rated PG-13,
2009), a movie in which the military occupies
a planet called Pandora, which contains huge
amounts of plants and animals, all of them
blue. It is set in the Alpha Centauri galaxy.
Here is the history:
Roblox also loves Pokémon too! Since Pokémon
go! came out, Roblox has added levels such as
Roblox Pokémon go, and Pokémon Go Tycoon.
Pokémon was created by a man named Satoshi
Tajiri in 1995. He loved collecting and he
wanted to share that with everyone! He did,
and Pokémon was created! Then, Pokémon
cards came. They are like the games, but basically just battling, and you use all of your cards,
not just six Pokémon. Also, we have the anime.
That’s about a boy named Ash Ketchum, who
goes on an adventure. Pokémon is awesome.
There is over 20 games that are all strange, and
there are games where you are a person, and
sometimes you are a Pokémon. Sometimes you
take care of Pokémon. You are strange, Gamefreak. You should be called Gamefreaks. There
are 801 Pokémon to catch so, let’s catch them
all! There are many events, so try to catch them
all. Get Pokémon!!!!!!
In 2011, scientists discovered an exoplanet
called Kepler-22b. It is far away from Earth,
but orbits a bright star. It has oceans and possibly plants. It is larger than Earth. It could be a
possible refuge if Earth is destroyed. We know
the Earth’s future won’t be like 2001: A Space
Odyssey (rated G, 1968), a movie in which the
Earth is unpolluted and people casually go to
Jupiter. Even though the star near 22b isn’t as
bright as the Sun, it still is bright enough. 22b’s
large size will also help house the growing population. The Earth’s ozone layer will eventually
break, causing a greenhouse effect. In other
words, the ozone layer breaks, the ultraviolet
light rays emitted from that sun will penetrate
more, causing environmental catastrophes.
However, we could make a shield to protect us,
and 22b is also 587 light-years away. Still, technology could get us there. Life might be there,
a likely chance of land and water, 72 degrees
Fahrenheit, 79% Earth similarity, and hugeness.
Well, now you know about video games. Well, almost everything. They are all good gaming
systems, but it really depends on the type of video games you like. So, see you later folks!
Even if 22b doesn’t in reality make for colonization, there will still be other planets. The human
race can go on, even without Earth -- whether in
space, or on another planet. Mars is another possible solution. It only takes six months to get to
Mars, and colonization is expected to start in the
2030’s. It has frozen water underground, possible
bacteria, and an atmosphere. If we can thicken
the atmosphere, direct sunlight to the planet
using mirrors, bring oxygen, plant trees, dig up
the water, someday Mars could be like Earth, and
a person could walk on Mars with a shirt and no
helmet! The reason why you can plant things in
Mars is because its soil is very similar to Earth’s.
Even if we can’t do all that to Mars, we could
possibly still live in oxygenated huge biospheres.
Talk about a chance of survival!
The human race will still live on without Earth.
There are many possible survival chances.
Exoplanets make up most of our chances. All
we have to do is keep the space program going
and get to work, for the sake of technology and
our life!

History of Silly Putty
How to Make Silly Putty
By Sophia Jung and Mary Beth McDonald
By Sophia Jung and Mary Beth McDonald
You’ll Need:
•
•
•
•
¼ cup of glue
1 cup of water
1 tablespoon of borax
Food coloring
Instructions:
1. Pour some of the water into glue
2. Mix water and glue
3. Put food coloring in
4. Mix it again
5. Put rest of your water into borax
6. Mix water and borax
7. Pour mixture into food coloring and glue
8.Mix
9. Put in the fridge
10. In 1 hour, you have your own silly putty!
Silly Putty was not made on purpose, but
was made accidentally. During World War II,
around the early 1940’s, engineer James Wright
was working for the US, trying to create an
inexpensive substitute for synthetic rubber at
a General Electric lab in Connecticut. When
he dropped boric acid into silicone oil, he got
a substance that was stretchier and bouncier
than rubber, and with a weird added feature:
when you flattened it against a newspaper or
comic-book page, it picked up a perfect copy
of the print it touched. This was the first Silly
Putty ever made.
But not everyone was happy about the invention of Silly Putty. The government didn’t want
his invention and called it “Nutty Putty.” But a
few years later, businessman Peter Hodgson noticed how popular it was at a party. He renamed
it Silly Putty, and marketed it as a toy, and
packaged it inside a plastic egg because it was
around Easter time when he put it out.

If you are wondering who is Mocha, he is a

first got Maxwell he was a kitten. We had just
decided to start fostering kittens. If you don’t
know what fostering is, it is where you get a cat
and teach it to live with humans. Then you give
it back to the shelter. When we got Maxwell,
we had just started fostering him and we fell
in love with him. So we went to the shelter
and filled out the papers. But enough on that.
When we got home we started to name him
because we did not like the name Maxwell,
(no offense to people whose name is that). We
started to look up names on the internet. First
we said Coffee, then Snickers, then Reese’s. But
not one of them were right. Than we saw the
name MOCHA. It was like the name was so
perfect that I could see it in front of me. Then
when we got the name, we started to tell all
of our family. Then, that very day the fighting
happened... but that’s for a different story.
THE END, or I think.

Wolves Can Fly
By Arber Bombaci
Once upon a time there was a wolf named
Gilbert. He believed he could fly. All the other
wolves told him that he was stupid and that
wolves could not fly. But one night in the full
moon the wolves all howled to the full moon in
honor. “I just wish I could fly once in a lifetime
and touch the sky!” sniffed Gilbert. Then all the
wolves went to bed. Suddenly, a fairy came out
and woke him up with a special flower. “I will
grant you one wish, what shall it be?” asked the
fairy. “I wish… I wish I could fly!” said Gilbert
excitedly. The fairy put her hands together and
light appeared from her wings then she shot out
a light ball from her hands to Gilbert. Gilbert
began to shake and shake until light exploded
from him, then he went back to sleep. The next
morning Gilbert wanted to try flying again.
Then suddenly, he flew! The other Wolves saw
him roam through the sky while screeching
with joy, trying to lose his voice from all his
joy. When he landed again all the other Wolves
asked how he flew. Then he explained them all
about the fairy. “We wish we could fly!” sniffed
the Wolves at the same time. It was their lucky
day, the fairy came and granted all of them a
wish and the next morning, they all flew.
By Meera Field and Eliza Hogan
We are going to tell you the story of how
Poppy the puppy and Milo the kitty become
best friends!!!!
It all started in a land far far away, called Petlandia. One day Milo and his family got invited to
a party. Poppy and her family got invited to the
exact same one. That night both Poppy and Milo
went to the party. Poppy and Milo knew each
other. But they did not like each other. But they
only knew each other. Their moms told them
to go play with each other and they did even
though they did not want to. They had a lot of
fun and did not want to leave each other.

The Teacher
Who Can’t
Live Without
Peanut Butter
When she was just 6 weeks old, we bought
a house in Evanston.
Q: What is your favorite food?
A: I am a bit of a foodie, so I could not pick
just one food. We love to cook at home,
and we love to eat in restaurants. I do
believe I could not live a happy life without
peanut butter, pizza, or chocolate.
Q: Where were you born?
A: Chicago
Q: What is your favorite movie?
A: Another hard question. A movie that
changed my life was Strictly Ballroom.
After I saw that, I knew I had to learn to
dance flamenco. That was 20 years ago,
and I am still studying flamenco dance.
Q: Where did you go to school?
A: I went to Jamieson Elementary School,
Lane Technical High School, Northeastern
IL University for my Bachelor of Arts, and
National-Louis University for my Master
of Education.
Q: If you could have 1 superpower what would
it be? Why?
A: I would like to have the ability to clone
myself at will, so that one of me could
always be at home: reading books, playing
music, or taking a nap.
By Max Matsis and Warren Liddell
Q: Did you have a job before teaching?
What was it?
A: As a teenager, I worked as a class helper
with little kids at my dancing school. I also
worked teaching Ukrainian folk dance
to little kids. I had a part-time job at
Baker’s Square in high school. While in
college, I worked at a daycare center in
Lincolnwood. When I graduated from
college, I got the job I have now.
Q: What is your favorite color?
A: I love the cool colors: blue, green,
and purple.
Q: What is your favorite book?
A: That’s hard. I have a lot of favorites. A few
of them are The Miraculous Journey of
Edward Tulane; The Trumpet of the Swan;
The Anne of Green Gables series; and the
Little House series.
Q: Where have you lived?
A: I spent one summer living and working in
a tiny village in the south of England. I
thought I would go insane from the peace
and quiet. I lived in Chicago my whole
life, until my daughter Willa was born.
Q: If you could have a voodoo doll of anyone
(alive) who would it be and why?
A: I plead the Fifth Amendment. :)
Have you figured out who the teacher is?
If you didn’t, it was Ms.Rosario!

Around Town
Memories
from a Dewey
Alumni
By Charlie Kalil, Henry Rouch
and Giles Gilbert-Bartell
We wanted to get to know restaurant/tap room
owners and a little bit about their jobs. We
decided to interview two GREAT owners, Peter
Vernon and Josh Gilbert. Be sure to check out
Temperance and Candlelite for a great time!!!
By Nathan Peterson and
Johnny Isaac
Candlelite/Peter Vernon
How would you like to walk home from school
at lunch time and eat a peanut butter and jelly
sandwich in front of your own TV!? We were
surprised by this and many other things we
learned about Dewey school from interviewing
our neighbor, Joey Garfield, a Dewey alumni
from the 1970’s.
Q: Where did you grow up?
A: I grew up in Evanston, Illinois and I went
to St. Athanasius School.
N/J (Nathan and Johnny): What is your name?
J (Joey): My name is Joey Garfield.
N/J: What are you doing for a job now?
J: Nowadays I work as a filmmaker. I make
music videos, films, and commercials and it’s
something my fifth grade teacher Miss Cole
thought I would be good at.
N/J: Has Dewey changed since you were there?
J: Dewey has changed since I went there. There
used to be long windows all across the gym walls!
The building is much bigger, the playground
is very different because the playground was all
metal with lots of swingsets, we used to eat lunch
down in the basement and we used to be able to
go home for lunch.
N/J: What? Did you go home?
J: Yea, I used to go home and watch TV and go
back to school. I would go home and my mom
wouldn’t even be there and I’d make my own
lunch and watch TV.
N/J: Was it fun?
J: Yes, but I had a hard time coming back on
time!
N/J: Was there one day that you came late?
J: Yes. Well, you’d hear the bell and run back.
N/J: Do you have any kids? Do they go to
Dewey?
J: I do have kids – Lula and Delcy. Lula went
to Dewey until 5th grade and Delcy is there
now. It is very strange to be a parent in the same
school that I was a kid at.
N/J: Why?
J: Because there are so many memories I have
that it feels like I’ve been everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
N/J: What were some of your favorite memories
of Dewey?
J: One time I brought my dog to show and tell
and he ran through the halls. Under the desks,
around the lockers, on to the second floor… I
had to grab him and walk him home. But it was
a fun show and tell.
N/J: You really showed it!
J: Yes!
J: In 3rd grade Mr. Simms had ordered chameleons for our class to observe them. He had
the whole class sit in a circle with a small cage
behind each of us. His idea was that each kid
would grab a chameleon and catch it and put it
in the cage. I don’t know why, maybe because
I was sitting by the window, but all the chameleons ran and went on me. Kids were picking
them off me like fruit. I was kind of laughing
and crying at the same time. At the end I felt
something tickle… and it was a chameleon that
had climbed up my pant leg. I reached down and
pulled his tail off. Mr. Simms took that opportunity to explain that chameleons shed their tails.
J: We went to Camp Timberlee. We were going
to camp Timberlee way back then. I was going
to Dewey in the late 70’s so we’ve been going to
camp Timberlee for a long time.
J: You know how Wesley street is called Bill
Hannon Drive? That was the principal of our
school – a big guy who dressed like Santa Claus
during the holidays. He lived a few blocks away
on Wesley.
J: There was a teacher, Mr. Suso, he was a man
who came from Africa. He announced to the
school that he would teach any kids who would
stay in at recess a few weeks to play the African
drums. And 10 of us kids stayed in. We learned
to play the talking drums, and the Marimba.
That was the first time I had ever seen dreadlocks. Then we had an assembly at night and we
performed the drums in the auditorium.
J: There was a janitor named Mr. Swenson, and
on the last day of school, he would climb on the
roof of the school and throw down all the balls
and frisbees to the kids and you would have that
ball all summer to play with. It was like Christmas in summer. It was the best to see all these
balls raining down on us.
N/J: What was your favorite subject at Dewey?
J: Art.
N/J: Why?
J: In Art you get to think differently and there
aren’t as many rules and it was easier for me to
do. I also liked science.
N/J: Did you have any different things to do at
Dewey that we don’t have that you know of?
J: Mr. Suso, the African drummer. You guys
have all these before and after school activities…
we didn’t have all that. You just went home and
played outside. We didn’t have as many structured events.
N/J: Who was your favorite teacher?
J: Mr. Simms. Ms. Cole, Ms. Burr,… she had
a giant iguana that she kept under heat lamps in
her room.
N/J: What did you do for fun at Dewey?
J: I really liked the talent show. The fun was
hanging out with so many kids and being able
to hang out in and out of school. And I’m still
friends with a lot of those kids today.
N/J: Where did you live when you went to
Dewey?
J: 3 houses down. On Elinor the house with the
yellow door. My parents still live there now.
J: When I was in 2nd grade the teachers went
on strike. They were marching with picket signs.
N/J: Why?
J: I don’t think they were being treated right
or paid enough. And we would bring them hot
chocolates. And they won! They got what they
wanted.
N/J: Is there anything else you want to tell us
about when you went to Dewey?
J: Yes. Dewey school is haunted.
N/J: What?!!!
J: I can’t tell you any more.
We learned some pretty cool things about
Dewey. We hope you did too, but we are still
wondering why Dewey school is haunted.
We might do a little investigation to find out
a little more on the subject of Dewey being
haunted.
Q: What inspired you to start a restaurant?
A: The original restaurant started in 1951 and in 2000 it closed. Three buddies and I used
to come here all the time and we decided to
reopen it. The only thing here from the
original restaurant is the sign out front.
Q: Why did you name your business Candlelite?
A: No idea! But my guess is that, at one time it
was a fancy candle light spot.
Q: What is your favorite item on your menu?
A: BBQ chicken pizza and the sausage pizza.
Q: Do you have any culinary experience?
A: I have absolutely zero, but I love to eat food!
Q: What is your favorite food and why?
A: I love steak and potatoes because I guess it
seems American!
Q: Any ideas for upcoming menu items?
A: Corned beef pizza! For St. Patty’s Day!
Temperance/Josh Gilbert
Q: Where did you grow up?
A: I grew up in Evanston. I went to Orrington,
Haven, ETHS, and for college – Wesleyan.
Q: What inspired you to start a restaurant?
A: Because I liked brewing beer and Evanston
didn’t have a brewery at that time.
Q: Why did you name your business
Temperance?
A: Evanston is home to the Women’s Christian
Temperance Union and has had a complicated
history with alcohol. Since we were Evan ston’s first brewery, I wanted to tap into that
history.
Q: What is your favorite item on your menu?
A: The Drop, Quotidienne and
Greenwood Beach
Q: Do you have any culinary experience?
A: Yes, CYRANO’S, a restaurant at Ravinia and
a brewer at Hamburger Mary’s
Q: What is your favorite food?
A: Pasta bolognese! (BOL-en-ayse)
Q: Any ideas for upcoming menu items?
A: We recently added chips and salsa and
are hopeful for new food trucks for the
summer!
Q: You know kids will be reading this, so what
exactly do you do?
A: A tap room is a place where everyone can
feel welcome, kids can come and play board
games and games, while the adults have a
drink.
Q: Words of wisdom?
A: It’s never too late to follow your dreams!!!
Candlelight and Temperance have unique stories,
yummy food and good drinks. But most of all,
kind owners who know how to run a business
well. Whenever you or your family has a night
off, you can bring your own food to Temperance
or you can go to Candlelite (especially on Tuesdays for a “buy one, get one free” pizza special)
to have a great meal!
