The new house is located in Camp Perry and is larger than the old one, which is just inside the main gate of the training station. Plans are on foot to enlarge the first one, for it has become so popular with not only the visitors to the Great Lakes, btu with the jackies themselves that it is far too small to accomodate the crowds that throng to it every day. On Wednesdays and Sundays, the visiting days at the station, there are usually about 2000 persons who enjoy its hospitality. The new house will have a cafe- teria and also sleeping rooms where visiting parents and relatives who receive the commandant's permission may spend the night. ; Hh oe en The proceeds for the entertain- ment given at the Winnetka Wo- man's club a week ago by the Kenil- worth players, ammounted to $646. One half of this amount has been forwarded to the French Relief and the remaining half will be put into the War Chest of the Woman's club.
