THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1918 5 ocisJ Ha<pperui\dy 1 NoftkSkore Ay Rutk Ridley ■ 5ATURDAY and Sunday were Wilmette Days at the Navy Club in Waukegan. Mrs. N. C. Webb, Mrs. George E. Cole, Mrs. H. C. Ambler, Miss Eleanor Ambler, Mrs. David Davis and Mrs. T. Stanley Simpson went up Saturday afternoon and evening to provide refreshments and entertainment. Between 500 and 600 jackies were served with coffee and doughnuts on this occa- sion, and Miss Ambler rendered a number of piano selections for their entertainment. On Sunday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Calloway, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Mitchell, Mrs. W. H. Porter, and Miss Whitauer shared the responsibility in serving offee, doughnuts and cakes to over 600 boys. In the afternoon Mrs. Porter and Miss Whitauer furnished a most delightful musical program, and at the Sunday Evening Club for jackies Miss Eloise Bedlan, pianist, Mr. F. A. Bedlan, violinist, and Mrs. Seaver, vocalist, gave several numbers. The marriage of Mrs. Lulu Allen Keith to Harry B. Scott was solemnized on Sunday afternoon at the home of the bride, 929 Central avenue, in the presence of only a few intimate friends and relatives from the nearby villages. Rev. Roy E. Bowers of the Congregational Church read the service at four o'clock. Mrs. Scott has been a resident of Wilmette for nearly twenty years, and has many friends.

Baker, 507 Lake ave- nue, will return Saturday from Cali- fornia. Mrs. Baker and the children, will remain, however, until early in March. The Tenth District Federation of Woman's Clubs is planning to give an attractive card party to raise funds to carry on the war relief work of the district, at the Evanston Woman's Club on the afternoon of Saturday, February 9. A unique feature of the affair is that all the prizes are to be articles for the use of the soldiers and sailors, Every one is interested in some boy to whom she would like to send her prize. In these troublous times when our social events are the exception and not the rule, it is a pleasure indeed to be able to enjoy an afternoon among our friends and at the same time know that the little each one gives both as a prize and as an admission fee all goes to help the boys at the front. Several clubs along the north shore in Wilmette, Winnetka and Kenilworth, have taken tickets, so it would be wise to call up one's friends and arrange for a table, and make reservations early. Mrs. R. H. McColl of 725 Simpson street, Evanston. is chairman of the .committee on prizes, and will be glad to hear from any organization inter- ested in aiding this committee. Members of the little sewing class which meets Monday morning in the apartments of Mrs. Edward L. Glaser of Glencoe, in the Blackstone enjoyed an informal little talk and readings by Mrs. V. K. Spicer (Anne Higgin- son Spicer) of Kenilworth Monday morning in place of Miss Emma P. Mills, who will give her talk on the kaiser next Saturday instead. Mrs. Spicer read several poems from her little book of recently published verse "Songs of the Skokie," and also others which have not as yet been printed. The rooms were a bower of bloom- ing hyacinths and daffodils. —*— The Woman's Mission and Aid So- ciety of the Wilmette Baptist Church met in the home of Mrs. C, P. Dubbs, 905 Greenleaf avenue, Friday after- noon of last week. Luncheon was served to forty members. The de- votional service was led by Mrs. J. C. Blaylock. followed by an address on "Organized Charities," by Mrs. A. E. Shibley, who has spent three years in Cleveland, and one in Chicago with the Associated Charities.
