THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, JANUARY 30, 1920 H PAYS HIGH TRIBUTE TO WILMETTE PEOPLE C. C. Bowsfield, Editor of The Na- tional Banker, Prai*e§ Communi- ty Spirit, Quiet and Refine- ment of Village SHOWS GROWTH OF BANK Praises Officials of First National Bank of Wilmette; Reviews the Growth of Institution Wilmette is paid a glowing tribute in an article appearing in a recent issue of The National Banker by Kditor C. C. Bowsfield, on the growth of the First National Bank of Wilmette. In reviewing the phenomenal pro- gress of Wilmettc's younger bank- ing institution Mr. Bowsfield has this to say about Wilmette: "Wilmette in many ways is an at- tractive field. By the stability and resources of its enterprising citizens in their varied activities the com- munity affords a large patronage of the most desirable kind for its home institutions. Bankers, merchants and tradesmen generally gain from the keen public spirit and loyalty which are manifest at Wilmette. This is a community of homes of the better class. It is a most desirable place of residence, without real estate booms or social extravagan- ces. Few places in Cook county are comparable to it for beauty and ad- vantages of location, and it has the charm of retaining the quiet and re- finement for which it has so long been noted. "Park-like. Situation" "Located fourteen fniles from Chi- cago Wilmette offers many decided attractions for those who wish to live at a convenientN distance from the metropolis. It has a beautiful park-like situation on Lake Michigan, with the drainage canal as an added advantage. The schools, churches and clubs are of high character and receive strong support. Thus it is seen that Wilmette is large enough to have city advantages and small enough to have the rural advantages "The community showed fine -loyalty and enterprise in subscribing to the Liberty and Victory loans, and this investment business centered largely upon the First National Bank of Wil- mette, whose officials took great in- terest in placing the bonds, both on account of government needs and the "Intrinsic merits of the securities." Praises Bank Officials In his review of the development of the bank Mr. Bowsfield lauds the enterprise of the bank officials, Frank J. Baker, president, J. M. Appel, vice-president and active manager, and Quintin J. Campbell, cashiter. He also has favorable com- ment for the directors of the insti- tution. BE ALERT AND AT WORK Every man who thinks straight. every man whose heart is honest, every man who loves America and all that America has stood for in human liberty needs to be alert and at work. No man can shift his responsibility on some other shoul- ders. His work must be done by him or it will never be done in time or eternity.—Matuifacttirers* Record.

Port Francis company, air American-1 controlled concern,.in Western On- tario. • ... The department said it was inform- ed that the western provinces of Can- ada vv-ere undergoing a severe paper famine, the newspapers in some cities having suspended and in one case having joined in a single con- densed sheet. "To relieve this situation," said the department's statement, "the Cana- dian government ordered the Fort Francis company to divert a heavy proportion of its products from Am- erican customers to western Cana- dian cities. In compensation the Ca- nadian government arranged that the eastern and American consumers of the company receive paper from a Canadian mill near Sault Ste Marie, according to instructions, and in ful- filment of contracts of the Fort Francis company. "The Fort Francis company claims that this compensatory arrangement has not been carried out, and the company is, therefore, opposing the enforcement of the Canadian govern- ment's order," says the statement. * SOME DEMONSTRATION One of the novel features of the automobile show in the Coliseum is the demonstration in the Marmon show space of the tear down and re- building of a new series Marmon 34 high efficiency motor. This is a regular stock production motor and the usual accuracy of its parts and the precision with which it is made permits its re-assembly with the greatest of ease in remarkable time. The chief point, however, of the unique display is the exhibit of the new manner of manufacture to close limits and the precise matking of parts so that an engine of unusual fit and perfect balance is assured. Hand titling of bearings and other connec- tions is a thing of the past in the new model. A great crowd is al- ways attracted by this special dis- play which takes place twice a day, in the afternoon and evening. "Work for a reputation, and it will work for you." Read The Want Ads On Page 7 Electric Toasters A Food may be very high in nutritive quality but just the same you won't hanker for it if it doesn't taste good. Toast has a place in the list of. good foods. But the toast often served" has about as much flavor as hay. Sold on Monthly Payments O yes, a humbug does occasionally get over the plate. But not often a second time. A thing to last must have a deep substratum of merit. And proof that the Electric Toaster is a good thing is the fact it's part of the equipment of hun- dreds of thousands of American homes. All Types Public Service Co. of Northern Illinois BOYS CLUB BASKETBALL TEAMS OPEN SCHEPULE Lose early games but expect to cop majority of the battles on splendid schedule The Wilmette Boy's Community club played the second couplet of basketball -games-"- Saturday against the Hyde Park \V -XL C.:A. at Hyde Park. The heavy-weight team con- sists of: P. T. Brown, L Heller, Linn, J. Reinhold, C. Sanders and A. Wallowitz. Boys on the lightweight squad are G. Bellows, B. Field, D. Hueginin, C. Jones and H. Rand. Although the Wilmette boys lost the games they performed remark- ably well considering the fact that they were outweighed man for man. Three weeks ago the Northwestern University Settlement team played the local boys when the home squads displayed exceptional ability. The club has a good schedule lined up and expects to win most of the games in the future. There was to have been a return game with the Settlement team this Saturday but the contest was postponed because the gym floor is receiving a new coat of paint.

The first step—the first word—are milestones in your life which will become lavender-scented memories to be recalled in years to come by a glimpse of baby shoes you laid away. There will be other memories too. Sickness and pain told you by sobbing baby voices, surprised and frightened that life holds suffering for chil- dren. And, too often, memo- ries of those unsung, hard, bitter fights for fluttering little lives thatonly mothers can fight. It will be all worth the doing. In all the world there is no joy such as comes with the growth and the blooming of the young lives that are yours. From the day they first come under your roof until the day they leave it for roofs of their own, the food of your children is first in your mind—for food means life. You experiment and select and discard and try again, seeking the foods that best help your children grow in body and mind. Your first thought is for your own—and rightly so. You must protect the quality of the food your children eat. You must be sure that when your children are hungry you will always have ready the food they need. You must protect the existence of the source of food supply on which you de- pend to supply their needs every day. The man whose business it is to see that you can always procure food when you want it is as necessary to your chil- dren's welfare and your own as the food itself. You need your grocer. He needs you. He is meeting your need. See that you meet his. The more you let him serve you, the better the ser- vice he can give. TheS Bi awyer rjiscuit company Makers of (nspoJJiscuits i
