Committees from the Opera Guild have also been busy selling subscripâ€" tions and coupon books as the slogan of the Guild is "Every seat filled at every performance." Serving on the Highland Park committee were: Mrs. Harry Weisbach, chairman; Mrs. Charles Mason, coâ€"chairman; Besides this active program the energetic members of the Guild gave during the summer and fall 34 parties for the benefit of the Student Opera Fund. One of the loveliest parties was that given at the beauâ€" tiful home of Mrs. L. Lewis Cohen, 266 Hazel avenue. These parties were so successful that the proceeds enabled the Illinois Opera Guild to purchase 37 boxes at the Opera for each Thursday night during the 7 week season. These were presented to various schools, our own Highland Park High school being one. Tel. H.
