The matter has to do with the necessity of buying what is needed carefully, and buying now. It also concerns the employment of returned fight- ing men. "The winter season is on and in our northern states this means sus- pension of outdoor work. This in its terms means much unemployment. Thousands of men employed in pub- lic improvements and engineering work of many kinds: street repairs. buildings, et cetera, which have been now stopped. They crowd into our congested cities and there is always more or less difficulty temporarily in their getting employment at this time of the year. \ "To these conditions is added the business hesitation normal to this period of post-war readjustment. Prices are to some extent declining. Men hesitate to buy materials and supplies on a falling market. This means stopping work in some places and reducing the amount of work done in others. It is normal but it means an addition to the usual un- employment at this season. The re- turn of our soldiers in quantities adds for the time to the problem. "Our commerce rests after all upon the personal purchases of individuals. If all were to stop buying for their personal needs, there would be no commerce, no industry. So far as all have stopped buying, industry has slackened. So far, therefore, as all can resume buying for their act- ual needs industry must move again. It is what is called good business, perhaps good economics, to delay buying till the market has reached bottom, but more is at stake, the peace of the country, the saving of men from unemployment and its social consequences to them and to the land. Yet we must not waste. We must still save. Taxes are com- ing. There will soon be another loan and we must not undo the habits of thrift that have been form- ed. Between the extreme lies a pos- sible course of helpful action which is this: Buy only what you need buy it now. The men and women who do this contribute patriotically to the country's need just as they did when they saved at their tables to our friends abroad last year, just as they did when they bought War Savings stamps or Liberty bonds. If each of us should buy what he needs at once, but buy no more than he needs the springs of action would be tapped and a real danger averted."

The Parent-Teacher association in connection with the Art and Literat- ure committee of the Woman's club have arranged to have Mr. Gerard H. Thayer of New York City to give an illustrated talk on "Concealing Coloration in the Animal Kingdom" to all the Winnetka children below the seventh grades on Thursday af- ternoon, March 27, in the Winnetka Woman's club. On the evening of that day, Mr. Thayer will give his ilustrated lecture "Concealing Colora- tion and Camouflage," for the child- ren above the seventh grade and the adults. Mr. Gerald Thayer and his father, Abbott Thayer, discovered and worked out from nature the scientific principals of protective col- oration and their book, "Concealing Coloration" was used by the English, French and American governments as the basis for war camouflage. Mrs. Charles S. Buell and Mrs. S. J. Eisendrath represented Winnetka on Friday, March 14, at a box lunch- eon of delegates from all the Parent- Teacher associations in and about Chicago which was given at the Jolly Tar Inn at Waukegan. Mrs. B. F. Langworth, chairman of the Jolly Tar board acted as host- ess and the party was delighted with the splendid addition and improve- ments which have just been complet- ed at the Jolly Tar. The second "Community Sing" was held at the Greeley school on Tues- day evening, March 11, and was most successful. Mrs. Von Ammons open- ed the program with a group of songs, accompanied by Mrs. Dean. Mrs. ivohlsaat led the chorus singing, accompanied by Mrs. Sammons. Mrs. French and Mrs. Whitney were the hostesses of the evening and served coffce and cookies. The third meet- ing is set for Tuesday evening, April 8, thiough many of the group consider that date too far distant. Seventh and Eighth grade mothers visited classes at Horace Mann school Friday afternoon and listened to a very inspiring talk by Mrs. Ed- gar Belden on "Aims and Scope of the Parent-Teacher association," and partook of a cup of tea. On Friday afternoon the mothers of the Kindergarten spent a pleasant afternoon together in the new Kin- dergarten room in the parish house. Miss Daniels talked of the teacher's work in the kindergarten after which tea was served. The Parent-Teacher association gave a record "Sing" at the Greeley There was a large attendance.
