I BE NON-SECTARIAN By Idlth •. fUldtr. TIM Bvanston Day Nursery will be »ned on Nov. 1, at the southeast er of Wesfcy avewie and Grove it; through the generosity of Ira. Alfred H. Gross and the Cath- v.ic Woman's club. Mrs. Gross has provided the noase and equipment. !5^M club will take over the manage- g>ent of the nursery, conducting it, ffaeeffdtng to the pledge of Mrs. John jjfc Hahn, as a non-sectarian institu- Jon, entirely free from religious fweeiytism. | Bvor sinee the work of the Central dissociation of Bvanston Charities was instituted, in February, 1911, the director has felt the need of a day nursery for children whose mothers need to go out to work. There is peaty of work for Industrious women and there are plenty of women in of work. But when there are Snail children and babies to be left srtone at home, the work add the worker cannot make connections. As 4l result, the mother must turn to the | Charities for help which she would aot need if she could get out to work. Right here is where the critic can step in and say. "Why not support the mother and her children?" That |;% indeed, the ideal thing, when the mother is wise and the home is good. But until the community is willing to ^lakrup the burden ef these mothers If by supporting them at home, those p «f us to whom they turn for help can- not alt and wait with folded hands. WIffhat we can do isâ€"provide work for the mother, and see that the cbil- sanitary place If tkm, probably knows |h* aitipaltow at well as any ana, »a aajra that she well that that* tt »raat «aed * a day nnreery II »tf»itoii. ' ,, lira. Robert Bonis**nd tor the past seven yeart haagivaii most of her tlme^n voluntftt' iarvloa aa a probsUon oficer as well aa to relief work, states emphatically that we need a day nursery, adding that "Ua- til we arrive at the ideal solution of the problem, by supporting the mothers in their home, the day nursery must provide the answer to these needy mothers." Miss Helen Jewell, for six years probation and truant omcer, says: "We need it very greatly, and we have needed it for years. Children are being kept out of school to care for baby sister* and brothers. When we have a nursery I can enforce the law which requires their attendance at school because we shall have some one else to take care of the babies." Miss Ely, the visiting nurse, was •on her rounds" at the time of thte writing, and an interview was not ob- tainable. But Mrs. Lutkln, who has been in close touch with every visits lng nurse we have had, knows the situation from the visiting nurse's point of view. -#â- Miss Louise Ware expects to be at home this winter. Miss Virginia Powell has returned to her home in California. Mr. and Mrs. Armatrong are to make an extended tour of the world. Robert and William Lester have returned to school at the University of Wisconsin. Mr. and Mrs. Oeorge P. Nichols have returned from a summer spent In California.

It gives Miss Johnstone the best opportunity she has had since coming to Bvans- ton to show her ability. Throughout the evening she is the center of the many strange incidents which arise in the portrayal of "The Strength of the Weak." Her role is a heavy one. Still, she handles it in an exceedingly pleasant manner and carries her audience with her from start to finish. The climax Is sudden, but realistic. In fact, it comes in such an unexpected way that the audience remains seated until after the curtain is dropped, so absorbed are they In the plot. Mr. Mlnturn, though not having a strong character to impersonate, does his part in a way that Is en- tirely acceptable and pleasing. Mr. Thompson Is fine, as are Mr. Claren- don, Mr. Satterlee and Mr. Peyton. Considerable local Interest Is manifested in the cast owing to the presence of Miss Dorothy Horning, a Northwestern university graduate. Her acting was superb, considering It 1s the first time she has appeared in a professional cast. If she decides to continue behind the footlights a bright future awaits her. The Cast.
