At Meeting of the Board of Directors of the New West- moreland Country Glub, Date Was Decided IJpofv. ELECT THEIR OFFICERS At the annual meeting of the board of directors of the Westmoreland Country club, held at the Avenue House, the permanent officers were elected. They are>,.*• tollowsr J. N. Welter, president; Thomas tt Eddy, vice-president; G. N. Stevens, secre- tary-treasurer. The directors Were: For one-year term--Horace W. Arm- strong, Herman Poppenhnsen and W. T. Sheffield. Tor two years--Pi C. Stiles and George M. Ludlow. For three years--Thomas C. Moulding, William S. Mason and Frank T. Mur- ray. The annual report of the board,of directors was read by its chairman, J, N. Welter, and showed the new elub tp be in excellent condition from every standpoint. . Since the previous meeting on Nov. 16 Mr. Welter reported that seventy- seven new members had been elect- ed, bringing the total membership up to 236. There will be only 316 mem- bers taken into the elub and the chair- man asked those present, in recom- mending possible members, to choose them from Evanston and the imme- diate North Shore territory. He reported that all the ground for the elub had been purchased and that the work of seeding woutd start this fall instead of in the spring, as was previously decided upon. He also stated that the water supply was ade- quate and that he knew of no ob- stacles confronting the club. The transportation matter was referred to, but it was decided not to take any action until after the new franchise to the street car company has been approved. It is hoped that play may begin on the new course not later than June of the coming year and that the open- ing shaM be one year from this Thanksgiving. NEW MACHINE WILL BENEFIT LECTURERS The new stereopticon with balopti- con attachment for the Evanston His- torical society has arrived and the committee in charge find they have a machine of remarkable usefulness and capable of the finest Kind of work. It will be a joy to the audiences which attend the winter course which opens Monday, Dec. 2, as well as to the lec- turers who will use it Mr. Ward, who gives the first lecture one week from next Monday night, has just re- ceived an old map from London show- ing Boston and vicinity in the col- onial days, and he has ordered a slide made of it. It is perhaps the most valuable find that Mr. Ward has made in his many researches. The subject of his lecture for December 2 is "The Yankee Schoolmaster in the American Revolution." pot One over.

North 6fcow physicians and public- spirited women have done everything in the world to find means of ex- terminating the fly. The latest idea comes from Baltimore, where the slogan is "Starve the fly." This slogan took life at a convention being held in that city by the American Civic asso- ciation. This is what Chairman Ed- Ward Hatch, Jr., had to say: * "We cannot insist, too much or too often upon cleanliness as the begin- ning, middle, and ehd of the fly fight- ing campaign. 'Swat the fly!' 'Swat the fly!' as a slogan must give way to 'Starve the fly!* The latter is more euphronlous and infinitely more prac- ,tlcal." Mr. Hatch said the committee was able to report the most successful year's work since the inauguration of the popular movement looking to the extermination of the house fly in 1908. .In its concluding phases the commit- tee's report made a feature of the fact that in cities in which substantial cash prizes were awarded, in no case did the number of flies killed in the whole of a campaign exceed the quan- tity which could easily have been reared from an averaged size pile of stable refuse in the course of a few weeks. While the education of value of such fly killing campaigns cannot be overestimated, the report said it would seem that greater results might be obtained by conducting campaigns against dirty stables and backyards, garbage heaps and dumps, and all places that produce flies and supply them with infection. Mrs. Annette B. McCrea of Chicago, who is attending the convention, be- came enthusiastic over the examples of colonial architecture she found in Baltimore. "Chicago," she said, "is a perfect fright with its gingerbread, no-archi- tecture-at-all style of building." She added: "I am working as hard as I can to encourage the idea of simplicity and dignity of line and coloring in the con- struction of railroad stations and gardens and private residences. There is little opportunity for real act work in railroad plots, but the selection #of simple and dignified designs counts for a great deal." The largest college meeting toe ytar was, held TVe^nesdAy when ov«* two hundred men gathered in Lunt Library to hear Dr. C. J. Kurt*, a noted scientist and member of the Northwestern Medical School faculty, speak on "Sexual Hygiene." His talk was along broad lines and brought out many plain facts that men have to face. Dr. Kurtz said that a great development in the medical world has been taking place and that even in his own time he has seen the rapid increase of ability to cope with large medical problems. Here a bit of humor lightened up the address when be said that vivisectionists claimed that it was better to kill several dogs while doing research work than to fill up several cemeteries. Ignorance, he claimed, was the hardest foe that the growing young man has, but to com- bat this he advocated a practical study of such sciences as biology and anatomy. A smattering of physiology and hygiene is not enough. An after meeting was htyd, at which Dr. Kurtz answered questions that were asked him. W. J. Vaught sang a solo at the beginning of the meet' ing.
