IlDDlE w TRAVW WIND UP IN WD.MElTE Wanderlust took firm hold upon two Evanstonians Monday of this week, bringing them acro~s the "borderlands" and far into W1lmette. The youngsters, of the "Kiddie Kar" age, rolled their vehicles as far as Forest avenue and Main streets, where just as dusk was coming on, they decided it was time to call a halt and make for home. Fire Chief, Walter Zibble noted the tearful trayelers as he was happening by, and, taking cognizance of their sad plight, invited them to share the comforts of the fire station and make .an inspection of the big red engines. Entertainment at the engine hQuse was augmented by a generous supply of cakes provided by Chief Zibblc and his stalwart "crew" and, a little later, by virtue of some as sistance from the telephone company and the Evanston police, the youngsters were consigned to their parents, Mr. and Mrs. John De Santigo of 1407 Crain street, :Evanston. , They had traveled about four miles, according to conservative estimates.

It's a big question mark I Two prominent citizens of Wilmette who were standing at the railroad station waiting for their morning ride, let the train go by during their dreaming of what it was all about. It was learned afterward s that their offices are not near Boul. Mich., where adventuresses are known to stroll. The young people were. all thrilled-t~ey said they had nothtn~ planned wh1ch would call forth such a poster. So there you are I "The Gay Adventuress is coming on May 9 and 10." Gee, that rings with ideas! Who is she-an actress or an automobile? Why pick on the north shore? Is somebody going to be all dressed up? Has Northwestern university turned loose a big idea? Does the American Legion Post in Winnetka know anything about her? Is she a French vamp from overseas? Is she a Prairie club fairy? Is she a Florida "tin canner" returning to the farm? · The police were quite excited when the notices appeared. "\Ve haven't had much excitement lately," they said, "especially among the w_o~en customers. It looks mighty susptctous to us." "Madam X" of the \Vn,MtTTP: LIFE got busy. Maybe this i~ telling tales out of the work shop. hut you know how it is in a new spaper office-we pick up any possible clue-and especially something about arll'cn~ uresses I Anyway, our genial society ed1tor buzzed the telephone all day Wednesday, trying to clean up the mystery._ She phoned Mrs. John Vennema, ch;ur!llan of the Art and Literature committee of the Winnetka Woman's cluh, to see if any of the club's departments were planning a show ~r lecture. Nothing doing! She t:1ed . many others. but it was of no al'all. F.mal!y, she turned to the edit or's desk m d1s~ust at not having reached any clue.
