Bernard Shaw, wtho cannot be accused of being a religionist, expressed the thought in another way when he stated that, if the church should shut down, an irresistible demand for their ·re-establishment would be provoked; that people would suddenly discover that they had been deprived of a necessity of life, and there would be more churches than ever and fuller ones. Here in Wilmette the necessity of the church is firmly established. You can best express your conviction by the habit of regularity in church attendance. including and inclt~ have ope to eighte new sch on a sch that it i. patrons Evans to and will tinations as to sea 23 First Presbyterian Church The members of the Presbyterian church, and others of the community Interested In the Chicago Christian Industrial league, are to have the opportunity ot hearing an interesting story next Sunday morning.

The table decorations representing the twelve months were cleverly wrought out, readily suggesting the na.me thereof. Who could describe the program? The mind ot. mere man could not have conceived the varied and thrllling "stunts" each of the twelve groups presented. This event will live long in the memory of those participating.
