Dean Henry Turner Bailey of Cleveâ€" land, who has been lecturing extenâ€" sively in California in the last month, will speak at the Highland Park Woman‘s club at four o‘clock on Wednesday, January 11, 1928. The lecture is sponsored by the De Forest School Round Table. â€" Dean Bailey is more than an educator. He is a civic leader. He heads the Boy Scout court of honor of Cleveland, conducts x men‘s bible class, is an inveterate outâ€" door leader and hiker, and not only directs the Clevelard School of Art, but has the rare gift of using his art knowledge so that those who hear him or work with him have a growing appreciation of the elements of beauâ€" ty in life. The hour of the lecture in Highland Park has been set for four o‘clock in order that teachers on the North Shore can find it possible to attend, with the many other people who are interested in hearing Mr. Bailey. . The rogular monthly meeting of the Woman‘s Auxiliary of the Highâ€" MONTHL Y MEETING OF wWOMAN‘S AUXILIARY tor alluded to Mr.Johnson‘s great deâ€" votion to the church, his pride in making sure that the building was kept in proper order and his interâ€" est in all activities that went on withâ€" in its walls. During the years of MF. Johnson‘s service he has been associâ€" ated with four pastors, and in the enâ€" tire history of the church no pastor has remained even half as long as he has. It is doubtful if any other church sexton in the Chicago district can point to such a long and faithful connection. HENRY TURNER BAILEY TO SPEAK HERE JAN. 11 De Forest School Sponsors Lecâ€" ture to Be Held Next Week Wednesday E. Clarke, 547 South St. Johns aveâ€" nue, with whom Ré made his home, was struck and fatally injured by a southbound State street car at Washâ€" ington street, Chicago, last Thursday. He was hurried to the froquois hosâ€" pital by a passing motorist and there died without regaining consciousness. Last Sunday mormlng, during the period of the announcement, the Rev. Frank Fitt called the attention of the congregation to a fact of unusual sigâ€" nificance. _ It was just twentyâ€"one years before, on New Year‘s day, 1906, that Mr. Peter Johnson began his service as sexton of the church. He took up his oflcui duties at five o‘tiock in the morning‘and thai same hour last Sunday found him actively at work, making sure that the boilâ€" ers in the engine room would heat the church auditorium through a night with subâ€"zero temperature. The pasâ€" Officials of the Chicago Surface lines declared the car‘s crew aided in taking the victim to the hospital. Jas. Morris, motorman, said he applied his brakes but could not avoid striking the professor. Since his retirement in 1921, Dr. Clark had lived with his son and daughterâ€"in‘law, in Highland Park. For many years he was well known as a public speaker, author, and lecâ€" turer. He came to the University of Chicago in 1892 from Trinity college. Dr. Clark received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Chicago in 1897. He was dean of the departâ€" ment of speech at the time of his reâ€" tirement. He had given several talks at Deerfieldâ€"Shields high school since he came here.

Clatk, 65, profesâ€" sor emeritus of public speaking at Ehm:go university, father of Robert Dr. Clark had gone down town on a shopping trip. According to witâ€" nesses, he stepped squarely in front of the street car, apparently unaware of his danger. Funeral services were held Saturday at Chautauqua, N. Y.

When Mr. Morgan became presiâ€" dent of Antioch im 1920, the buildings were oldâ€"wornâ€"down, and neglected, and the sanitation wis very poor. Within a comparatively short time, and through the unfailing efforts of the new president, the et;l]ege buildâ€" ings and grounds were greatly imâ€" The coâ€"operation program which Mr. Morgan has successfully develâ€" opéd at Antioch has furnished one of thegreatest contributions to the scinâ€" tion of the educational problems conâ€" fronting the world at this time.
