Hackett of Glen Oak C.C. reported that the advance sale has already exâ€" ceeded that of any tournament held in Chicago under the C. D.G.A. To embrace the whole creation with love sounds beautiful; but we must begin with the individual, with the nearest. â€"J. G. Herder Screen Comedy is Glorified By Romantic Stars The infectious swing to comedy in full cry in the film industry and criâ€" mly-«â€"uzhmm has caught up Charles Boyer and Margaret Sullivan. * From Universal studios hotspot in the hilarity sector and site of the bysâ€" sterical antics of s uch outstanding clowns as Abbott and Costello, Olsen and Johnson, and W. C. Fields, comes "Appointment for Love" to open Sunâ€" day at th Glencoe theatre with Boyer and Miss Sullivan as its coâ€"stars. Boyer and Miss Sullivan, heretoâ€" fore noted as two of the foremost exâ€" ponents of screen pathos in the form of highly romantic and emotional drama, are cued by Director William A. Seiter through a racy, sparkling modern comedyâ€"drama in the newâ€" comer. The play is a forthright, peal to the risibilities of audiences x::‘nnhlulm-dnbbflybad- Set on Broadway and against Manâ€" hattan‘s arresting skyline, "Appointâ€" ment for Love" presents the suavely nonchalant Mr. Boyer as an eminently successful playwright who turns hig back on cafe society to stage a merry chase for the hand of chic but wholly professional Miss Sullivan. Miss Sulâ€" lavan. enacts the role of a New York doctor and surgeon who refuses to permit sentiment to push scientific theory out the the spotlight. Emotional Nonsense The tale is steeped in nonsense with a heart. The roles of its principals are a turnabout for both, who will be reâ€" called most recently for their hit perâ€" formances together in "Back Street." Revealed are opportunities for Boyer to cash in on a flair for farce for which he was noted in Paris, and Miss Sullavan‘s like talents which were widely exploitod on the American stage before she came to pictures. No accident, the teaming of Boyer and Sullavan in a romantic comedy was outgrowth of suggestion to the pair by Producer Bruce Manning, Remembered in Drama Jean Brand Becomes Bride of Dr. Lee Lewis Jean Brand, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leslic Brand, 217 Bell ave., was married Monday afternoon in Bethany Evangelical church to Dr. Lee Lewis, son of Dr. and Mrs. Lee Lewis of Detroit. WILLIAM M. DUNBAR Following the wedding ceremony, at which the Rev. Lester H. Laubenstein officiated, a reception was held in Hearthstone house, Winnetka. Private funeral services were held in Highland Park Monday afternoon for William Macinnis Dunbar, 9, son of Mr. and Mrs. Maciunis Dunbar of Bannockburn. William died Saturday in the Highland Park hospital from blood poisoning. Surviving is a sister Dianne. Boyer tosses dignity wholly aside in interpreting the playwright‘s role. He plays volunteer fireman, connects with a black eye in a fistic melee and otherwise comports himself unconvenâ€" tionally if not undignifiedly. Miss Sullavan is chicly responsive to the mood of farcial piece as the career woman who seeks to push domesticiâ€" ty into the background in favoring her professional activity, handled them so astutely in "Back Street‘ and at that time proposed their reunion in streamlined, modern "Appointment for Love," Both stars fell enthusiastically in with Manning‘s proposal and ‘their new play was written precisely to take full advanâ€" tage of the pair‘s talents. Lining up with the stars is an unuâ€" sually talented cast which ‘includes Rita Johnson as "the other woman," Eugene Palette as Boyer‘s play proâ€" ducer and confidant, Ruth Terry as an uninhibited member of cafe society with a yen for Boyer and Reginald Denny as a fastâ€"talking rival of Bayâ€" er‘s for Miss Sullavan‘s affections. It has been estimated that the first Public Works program has cost the country some $30.00 per capita, It takes no wizard at figures to come to the conclusion that unless a city the size of Highland Park has receRed at least $600,000 in federal funds for pubâ€" lic works it is coming out on the short end of the deal. Some cities have reâ€" ceived as much as $100 per capita‘ in PWA grants. To this writer‘s knowlâ€" edge Highland Park has yet to receive We dislike being repititious but we again wish to point out that an ade quate drainage system in this part of town is the only satisfactory solution. It may help the harassed property owner to work off surplus steam to call the City Hall when his basement bgins t resemble the streets of Venâ€" ice but he isn‘t going to get much in the way of relief simply because unâ€" der existing condition the city is powâ€" erless to effect a remedy. THURSDAY vious cuts loose with one of his typical down pours the wails of those unfortunate citizens who live west of Green Bay Road were both long and vociferous. The writer does not wish to appear facetious by indulging in wise cracks at the fate of the water dwellers in the western reaches of our fair city. Your columnist lived in those parts himself for the better part of two years and knows first hand what it is to wade around in three feet of water every time is rained more than a mere drizzle. This brings us back to the proposiâ€" tion of starting the ball rolling toward eventually geting an honest to goodâ€" ness drainage system for the west side of the city, Your writer is cogâ€" nisant of the fact that million dollar drainage systems just don‘t grow on trees but he also feels sure that the road to the realization of this dream Some contend that a preliminary survey of sufficient extent to get such a project on the Public Works Reserve list would cost upwards of $5,000. I believe that a through inâ€" vestigation of the possibilities of the situation will reveal that it can be done for considerably less money. _ Highland Park Lion‘s club meet in Open House tearoom. _ Parcel Post and white elephant sale in Redeemer Lutheran church, Highland Park, mfld by women of the parish. 12:30 Y- l.v:h ‘Gudoizhb will bave annual _ Ravinia Garden_club will bave annual outing in Ravinia Rose garden. _ Highwood production unit of American Red 57«- meets in Oak Terrace schol.

I think the time has arrived for Highland Park to get on the band wagon. Why help pay for a garbage disposal plant in Fort Worth, Texas or a water works in Podunk, lowa when we are so badly in need of pubâ€" lic improvements in this town., The east side of town did not come through the recent rains completely unscathed. Commissioner Swanson stated that numerous unpaved drive ways were washed into the streets and down the drains all over town. This situation again brings up the question of compulsory paving of apâ€" proaches. It also calls attention to the fact that Highland Park is woefully lacking in proper curbs. Commissioner Sharp pointed out that proper curbâ€" Now that the Safety Lane is in operation all motorists are urged to make use of its facilities to see that their cars are in good driving condiâ€" tion. Some of the ancient jalopies and broken down taxi cabs running around town could well afford a check up at this time. An interesting sidelight on the efâ€" fect of the war on home construction was brought to light with the reading of the building report for the month of May, Last year during May conâ€" struction permits totaled over $190.000. This year the figure for May showed only a few thousand dollars spent for construction and remodeling work. The city‘s revenue from construction permits has practically disappeared for the duration. ‘ of sewer heads would go a long way towards conserving tires and automoâ€" bile wheels. It is a constant source of amazement to the visitor to Highâ€" land Park to find a city of such apâ€" parent wealth so lacking in what other comunities would call the neâ€" cessities of civic existence. Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need. â€"Mory Baker Eddy On the brighter side of the ledger Commissioner Sharp stated that the beautification program of the incineâ€" rator property would shortly get unâ€" der way, This is indeed welcome news to those of us who have long felt the need of such an improvement. Commissioner Sharp stated that the bicycle rack situation at the railroad stations was now well in hand. All that is needed now is a little educaâ€" tion on the part of the city‘s cyclists to use the facilities provided for them. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Getz, 64 Clifâ€" ton avenue, entertained Alexander Schneider and Mischa Schneider, members of the Budapest String enâ€" semble, at their home over the weekâ€" end, The two musicians were enroute to Denver, where they are on concert tour. . MOR A Natural Source of Vitamin B; THE MEAT FOR BREAKEAST "God the Only Cause and Creaâ€" tor" was the "3{:“ of the Lessonâ€" Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, June 7. Among the citations which comâ€" griled the Lessonâ€"Sermon was the ollowing from the Bible: "O Lord, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth" (Psalims 104). The folloieg pessages from io ollowing passages e Christian Science textbook, ‘"Sciâ€" ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker EdtllI: "The creative Principle â€" Life, Truth, and Loveâ€"is God. The uniâ€" verse reflects God. There is but one creator and one creation. This creation consists of the unfolding of spiritual ideas and their identiâ€" ties, which are embraced in the inâ€" finite Mind and forever reflected. These ideas range from the infiniâ€" tesimal to infinity, and the highest ideas are the sons and daughters of God" (p. 502). i The Golden Text was, "Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is" (Acts 4: 24).
