L The Skokie ·Valley chapt~r of the Daughters of the American Revolution met at the home of Mrs. Otto Ruth, Woodstock Avenue, Kenilworth, on Monday of this week. So many members of the chapter are away or ill that Mr. and Mrs. James Guinan, form- it was necessary for the registrar, erly of Kenilworth avenue, have moved Mr.s. Mark Cr~sap,_ to preside, and into their new home on Abbottsford owmg to the terrdlc storm which swept through this section, many were road. unable to attend the meeting. It is to be regretted that so many were unable to be present to hear the speaker of the day, Mrs. G. H. Goodhue, vicechairman of the department · of national defense for the D." A. R. of Illinois, and it is quite possible that she will be asked to repeat her talk either this year or sometime during the next season's program. She has an inexhaustible fund of information on her subject and could only touch upon part of it during her hour Monday. Mrs. Goodhue brought a very startling account of the workings of the communists in this country and whether one is in perfect accord with her views or not, the statistics which she produced are worthy of serious and sober thought and should be considered by all Americans. She made clear the fact that the army of the United States has its activities and accomplishments in many constructive ways and is not useful in just a military sense. This brief article or account cannot go into any detail of her talk but it was very lucid, sane, and interesting! Mrs. Goodhue has a most pleasing manner, is perfectly informed on her subject; is thoroughly interested and aroused over it, and it is to be hoped that she will come again. · Mr~ .and Mr~. Floyd Hopkins, who were members of the , Kingsley automobile party which met with an ac~i de~lt on the Waukegan r~ad a W4?ek ago, have left the Evanston ho.;pttal and are at home again. Lloyd Kingsley, who was the most seriously injured, has some badly broken bones and· will have a long siege at the· hospital, it is expected. HOllE FRO· .JJ.Q.t'I"J:... Skokie D. A. R. Hears Lecture on N atiot~t~l Defense Neigbbon to Observe Home and Garden Day The next regular meeting of the Neighbors will occur Tuesday afternoon, April 3. This is to be a home and garden day and, in keeping with this spirit, Mrs. Frederick Dow will speak on "Our Home Garden." This is not only a timely subject but comes at a season when our thoughts are turning towards the garden, and garden things with the added stimulus of the garden and flower show now in progress at the Hotel Sherman, and the programs of the annual meeting of the Garden Club of America soon to begin. David Milroy Boyd will give "Bird Songs" and there will be an exhibit of home and garden paintings by Mrs. Gordon Wilson and Mrs. Marguerite Taylor Ashton of \1\Tilmette and some of the recent paintings of our own local talent, Miss Helen Taylor. If the weather is fair, it will seem quite like a garden party and if the weather is blustery and cold the program will tend to dispel the gloom and give promise of the days later on. The meeting on April 17 will be the last for the current year and is the Annual Luncheon day. A note on the announcement reads : "Make reservatio.ns early." ·· DIE FASTEST AND FINEsr PERFORMER UNDER $1000 COUPE · · · · · · · 4-DOOR SEDAN · · . ·875 · 895 CABRIOLET · · · · · DELUXE SEDAN · · · · ~ 945 970 Till s.itw S~ .1570 to tt770 JUl Jlt'ka J. · '" Dmoil n. va., si% ··045 .t o ··11o Sincere Service Always C.
