That was reâ€" garded as the proper location since it is the highest pint on the Green and, very naturallv, the platform of the memorial will be the rostrum â€" on which all speakers at patriotic celeâ€" brations will stand. ‘The memorial will thus be the center of interest for all such eatherin@=s of young and old on the Village 0!00!!.

Mistory of Project n omg According to the history of the Soldier ll-u%:d project, as ‘outlined by the Winnétka Talk. it annears that, long ago, the Community counâ€" cil (existing during@ and shortlv after the war) appointed a committee to ask for competitive designs for a memotial to Winnetka‘s Gold Star men. . Before this committee was ready to% report, the Community council had ceased to function. and, therefore, this committee laid the reâ€" sults of its memorial designs compeâ€" tition before the village council. The trustees accented the report and, acâ€" cordingely, anvroved the design subâ€" mitted by Samuel A. Otis. Winnetka‘s ambition and desire to show due honor to her sons who gave their lives in the World war, is about to be realized, it was learned this week. Preparations for a proper memorial have been on foot for seyâ€" eral years but they assumed definite shape at a meeting last June in Comâ€" munity House. f Committee of Fifty Undertakes Public Meeting Call: Hisâ€" tory of Movement Is Outlined WAR MEMORIAL AT WINNETKA PLANNED CAMPAIGN IS LAUNCHED VOLUME XVI The Family Next Door Read the WANT ADS in ~_ _ this Issue PROBLEM The Higbland Park Press Glencoe ‘women who will be p.tro]:; esses for one of the largest soci functions of m& the fmâ€"uy ball :given by the Glenco er, inâ€" fant: Welfare m%c‘:flno,% be held November 3 at the Evanston Country © club areâ€" Mrs. Henry H.
