All persons interested are hereby notified to call and pay amount assessed at th e Collector's Office, in the Village Hall, Wilmette, Illinois. Dat ed this 5th day of October, A. D. 1925. EDMOND H . KERR, Collector L2-ltc I I Famous North Shore Amateur Actors to Stage Production Here This Season An event of particular importance in the social and artistic life of WilJllctte is the extension of the activities o f the North Shore Th\?atre Guild to include this village. For the past five years, residents of ~'ilmette !,ave been journeying to Winnetka, Evan ston. and other neighbor-ing communities. to witne ss the plays that h~ve been staged by this gifted organiz<l~ion . A movement is now on foot, h0wever, to "eettre the pre sentation of these drama~ right here m Wilmette. A local committ e is at work, headed by ~1 rs. Robert Stoddard, of 524 Lakf' avenue, and it is confidently believed that enough suh~cription s can be obtained to insure the performance of the plays of the Theatr · Guild in our own community. For the coming winter. the Theatre Cuild promi~es a program of unusual merit and very' wide appeal. One of the first of the four plays to be pre~ entcd will he "The Likes o' Her," a play that has attracted most favorable attention during the course of a long run 111 London. but which has never hcen produced 111 the Cnited ~tate s . A ~panish operetta, "The Duenna." " ·ill abo he produced, and two other~ of equal merit and high -. tanding. They will all · h~ novelties, and it is ~tated with absolute as surance that all play~ will he di stinctly worth while, a" entertainment s . a s \veil as irom an arti~tic point of Yiew.

A few of these haYe hten eminently succes s ful. and among them the qanding of the Korth Shore Theatn· Guild is remarkably high. It i~ one of those in stitutions that is well known outside of it" immediate tield of operations. The Theatre Guild of Xn~; York has an international reputation, hut close behind it follows a -.mall group of similar organizations, of equal merit though not quite so ambitious m their scope, 'lttch as the Pro,·incetown Players, Le Petit Theatre du ~vieux Carre. of New Orleans and the ~orth Shore Theatre Guild. Confident of Support One of the points emphasized by Mrs. Stoddard, in discussing the proposition of bringing the Theatre Guild plays to Wilmette, was the significance and convenience of being able to enjoy worth while theatrical performances in the midst of our own homes. It is safe to say that many residents of of the north shore do not enjoy the theatre as much as they would like to on account of the diffi.cuty and inconvenience attendant upon spending ,.... an evening in Chicago, rushing for late ' trains, and getting hom<> at an hour so late as to make seriou~ inroads on a night':; rest. Mrs. Stoddard believes that the people of Wilmette will rally to the support of a local organization which will make possible the enjoyment of really good plays, with a minimum of expense or · inconvenience. Season tickets are being sold, for ~he four plays, at a price which wirt average only one dollar for each performance. If enough of them can be subscribed for, the plays will be given in a Wilmette auditorium, just as they have been presented hitherto in Evanston and Winnetka. Tickets may be obtained from M:s. Stoddard, or from any of the followmg Wilmette women who are serving with her on the com~ mittee: ~1r s . R. D. Burtner, Mrs. A . F. Con!t s, Mrs. B. F. Le wi s, Jr., Mrs. H. A. Storm , ~~ r s.
