» --a WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7. 1918 5 em -- ocial Happenings on the . North Shore by Ruth Risley = HE VEGETABLE MARKET, which seemed the inevitable outcome of the French Market held early last spring at Com- munity House green, will close its doors to the public on Saturday morning of this week, after a most successful season. At the French Market, it will be remembered, seed, bulbs and plants for our successful war gardens were sold in great quantities. Later it became necessary to solve the problem of tak- ing care of the surplus garden stuffs, in order not to waste---hence the Vegetable market. Mrs. Samuel H. Greeley, assisted by the gardners of the Village, planned for the market and its opening. Vegetables of all sorts were sold at sub-war prices, and many Win- netkans approached Community House on Saturday mornings, bas- ket on either arm, prepared to carry home the choice articles. The proceeds from the market, a tidy sum of $1,250, will be forwarded to Dr. Alice Barlow-Brown, for her work among the Wounded and Suffering of France. Mrs. John Nash Ott, of Indian Hill, will be in charge of the | market on this, the final Saturday sale of the year. URING THE MONTHS of August and September the Gift Shop has specialized on the Saturday Morning Vegetable market. The success of the "Market", which netted a very sub: stantial sum to the Dr. Brown fund, is largely due to the enthusiasm and originality of Mrs. Samuel Hallett Greeley. Miss Beatrice Starr assisted by the Misses Alice and Carol de Windt, transferred some of the attractive trinkets of the Gift Shop to the Red Umbrella stands on the Community House parkway, and many a sale was made to help the needy French children. Interest is still lively in the Gift Shop. New donations are coming in every day. Mrs. Jasperson Smith has given an Evinrude detachable motor for row-boat or canoe; it is worth $100; we will sell it for $25. We have a four burner "Reliable" gas range, in good condition, that we will sell for $12. An antique chair that belonged to a General of the Civil war and many other interesting bargains. The Gift Shop will re-open, Saturday afternoon, October 5, from 3 to 5 o'clock. ; 4 Mr. and Mrs. Stuart F.

"I had four couches in the buss, three guys with a shattered hip--and the fellow that was bleeding from the mouth a little when they put him in. But he thought he'd be all right, so I came along. The three fracture cases were yelling when they were put into the ambu- lance, and whenever we'd go over any kind of a bump they'd scream, so I was just easing along as slow as [ could go. I'd been crawling along like that for nearly an hour when I heard a knock on the window behind me. I opened it and found the fel- low who'd been bleeding -from the mouth in horrible shape. 'I'm bleed- ing to death, buddy, he said. 'Get me to a doctor quick." 'The nearest doctor's Paris,' I told him. 'And if I open her up these fellows with the fractured legs-- What about it, fel- lows?' I asked them. "This boy's got to get to a doctor." 'Let 'er go,' the three of them said. 'We'll get by. So I threw her wide open and came into Paris hell-bent. 777777 SASS, Have You Decided?
