Tracks Depression Keynote The keynote to Glencoe‘s city plan is to be the depression of the Northâ€" western and North Shore electric tracks thrnugh the village. Praetr cally every foot of property on each side of the right of way of the two roads has been purchased or is con- trolled by the village and will be so gradually graded and decorated with trees and shrubs that the etfeet to the railroad traveler will be one of riding' through an attractiven’alley'. instead 0f the usual railroad cut. The first big result of Glencue's plan wil! be an attractive entrance to I“ "' ”my. .\ unlan statiun will be erected between the two railroads. Handsoniely decorated Conrete bridges will span Park avenue northwards. and Hazel avenUe south of the sta- tion. The bridges will be wider than the <treets they connect and this ad- ditional width will be used for parkâ€" ing space. Stops will lead down to the track platforms. The second big result of Glencoe's plan will im‘ the permanent barring of all business east of the tracks. West of the station will be the Com- munity center, Here the growth of business for fifty years to come will be proVided for A fountain with cascadvs will {are the station.

Johnson, one of Glencoe's Plum-Hrs. by a unique method. The (‘hlrauu Title and Trust Company put UP the necessary $59,900. and took the title in trust for the village and library and park boards.

Funeral Services Held at the Flmily Residence Monday Afternoon at Two O'clock MRS. MESSENGER DIES AFTER LONG ILLNESS Mrs. Messenger was a member of the Presbyterian church and an earn- est worker in its activities. She was a loyal supporter of charitable or- ganizations and every line of philan- thropic work. . The funeral services wqre held at the family residence last Monday afternoon at two o’clock with Dr. Wolcott and the Rev. Fitt in charge. The service which was read on this otcasion was written by a brother of Mrs. Messenger, the Rev. Oscar McCulloch, who Won distinction in his day. Mr. and Mrs. William Fenton of Grand Rapids. Mich.. sang. Inter- ment was in the family lot at Lake Forest. Mrs. Messenger was the mother of two children who surVive her, Mrs. Edmund Eitel of this city, and Ed- win Messenger, and of Ralp’h D. and Hubert Messenger who passed on be- fore her. The Goodfellow Committee of the Highland Park Lodge of Elks is con- stantly and quietly gathering infor- mation as to where a Christmas bas- ket is needed and i‘. is their purpose to allow no poor children to miss a joyful Christmas when a warm pair of shoes and stockings, toys and other things that are dear to their hearts can be supplied. It is reported that in the jurisdiction of Highland Park Lodge a quiet, search has been made and it is gratifying to learn that. the number of baskets needed can easily be taken care of. Many children, however. have been listed for toys and clothing. With the death of Mrs. W. D. Mes- senger, passes a member of one of the oldest and most cherished families in this city. Hers was one of the fam- Jies whose life record is clos'ely knit- ted into the very warp and woof of the history of Highland Park.

Walter A. Jones is Chairman of tin COMMUNITY SHOP WESSTmS WEEK 3le FULL or CHRISTMAS cm SUGGESTIONS EVERYTHING FROM A HAIR CURLER TO AN AUTOMOBILE Local Stores Gayer Than Ever Before in Their Holiday Attire. Shoppers Will Do We" to Look Over the Twenty Pages of This Issue Before Buying. What would you give for the pleasv ure of a peaceful. leisurely shopping expedition at this season of the year? History records various kinds of min- ute men; from the Minute Men of Revolutionary days, down to the Four Minute men of The Great War, but while these varieties come and go, there is one that is always on hand, and he is the “last minute man." These men are legion. They abound in every period of history and in every generation. They leave their shopping, like everything else, until the last day in the evening. Now, as long as this last minute fraternity constitute the major por- tion of mankind at any given period, it might be well to offer them a word of advice in regard to their Christ- mas shopping. Chicago is overflowing. It seethesl with moving humanity. In it there is? no peace, no service, no bargains, no; chance at a counter, no view of a: display window, no lunch, no rest, no. consideration. Why people continue to flock into the maw of this monster? of unrest, “it is beyond the wit of. man to say." And yet they do it.€ The last minute people run for the: train every day, which will transport? them and set them down in the midst: of this Whirligig of excitement andi unrest. At the great terminal sta-j tion they set forth on a round of} monotonous venture, difficulties, 1 hazzards. It is like committing one’s self to the caprices of one of those undulating railways at an amusement park with the serious intention of ac- complishing something. But your Christmas shopping is no joke, you say. It is something which must be done. Very well. Here is your home‘paper which tells just where everything can be found right here at home, or in adjoining towns. The advertising section of The Press will lead you through a labyrinth of possibilities in Christmas gifts. They will range all the way from toys for children at the Northwestern De- partment store and flowers at Bahr‘s to beautiful motor cars at Koon's garage. There are Christmas trees at llarder's Hardware Store, but they are only a drawing: card to get you in side the store. Once there, the chances are that you will remain for a long time before you have reached the 0nd of surprises, for this hard- ware stare is large and spacious, and ranges far afield from the traditional hardware stock. Another large hardware establish- ment displays its holiday wares m spacious windows The D. C. Purdv Sons hardware store has everything to delight the eye of .th(- Christmas shopper. Or perhaps you haw an electrical gift on your Christmas list. If so. you can find the very thing at Robert Greenslade's on Central avenue. To purchase a little tree-lighting set for the tree right here at home with- out the tremendous effort of a Chica- 1:0 trip would he a great relief. They can Show you assorted lighting bulbs in fancy shapes and colors, and you can make your purchase quietly, have them sent home. and then if one of them should be missing or broken, you can remedy the matter without difficulty. And Huber's Electric Co. will show you anything from a hair curler to a washing machine.. Then there is the Highland Park Trust and Savings Bank, and the Highland Park State Bank, which al- lure the morning shopper to come in and take out a membership in one of the numerous clubs whivh they are offering for the hoh’ day season. What could be more to the point in these days of the h. c. or 1. than to set 3 Same example to your children by giving them a bank book for a Christmas present together with a little coin bank in which they can drop their nickel: and dimes. The} will be called upon to put a definite amount into this bank every week, and thus save the many pennies that would otherwise find their way into sweets. Thus will they learn to be thrifty. to cultivate the habit of self- restraint. and to find a wholesome pleasure in a business interest. Then there is the Public Service company which offers stock on easy payments for the Christmas gift of those who appreciate the value of money and wish to make their gift something lasting and memonble. Albert Lat-son calls attention to his magnificant stoek of books. He has directed much attention and thought to the creation of this fine book department, and he has catalog- ed and listed them for the benefit of the home shopper. At the Larson store you can browse to your heart’s content. You can look things over in an atmosphere of sanity, without the excitement of hunting sales peo- ple to tell you they don't know where anything is. At this book store you can always ask questions with cer- tainty of an intelligent answer, for Albert knows his books. Moldaner Humer invite you to buy a suit or coat by way of varying the conventional gift, Mr. Pratt calls you back to candy and cigars, the alâ€" ways welcome present. Earl Gsell sounds the same familiar note, announcing as well kodaks, fountain pens, thermos bottles, nnd stationery. R. W. Schneider, suggests neckwear, handkerchief; 1nd men’s furnishings. He has a complete line of jewelry and silverware. Then Rosenberg’s of Evanston bells those who are in the habit .of visiting that city that you can do as much shopping in one hour at Rosenberg's as you can do in an entire afternoon in Chicago. The Globe and Alex Hein of Waukegan and Charles Glass of Highwood announce their Christ- mas attractions in suits, coats, dress- es, toys, dolls. men’s clothing, sweat- ers, bathrobes, and toilet articles. Samuel Levin reminds you of his twenty-one years of business history right here in Highland Park, and then bells you that he is better equipped to take care of the growing trade of ihis city than he has ever been be- fore. He invites you to inspect Vic- trola records and jewelry. Dailey's ready-towvear store offers a complete line of attractive gaments for women and children. Garnett’s department store has attractions without endâ€"everything from toys to men's overcoats, from the filmy neckwear of women to house' dresses and kitchen aprons. Rasmussen Bros. and Harry Butler say that shoes are practical gifts for any member of the family. If you really want to do your last minte shopping intelligently, just take a look at the ads in your home paper. Read them carefully, and then stop in when you are doing your market imz in the morning and see what there is to back up those alluring advertise- ments. Business men do not adver- tise for nothing in this day and age. They advertise to inform the public of their specialties, the things they are making their leaders. Their pub- lic is intelligent and business men know it. Their public knows values both in Chicago and at home. That is why, when suburban business men an- nounce their leading specialties it means opportunity for the prospective buyer. Moreover, the goods are here at home where you can see them at your leisure and, at this season of the year, the home town looks good to mankind, to whatsoever class he may l belong: the serious shopper the look- erâ€"on, the browser, and all the other types of the “last minute men" HIGHLAND PARK NAVY OFFICER DECORATED Lieutenant (3.2.: George Clark Moseley has been awarded the Navy Cross, I medal which ie given only for extraordinary heroism or fur very disting: shed u rum VOLUME 9
