'"e -Rev. John Timothy Stone WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 22, 1920 11 > Activities of CTIVITIES at the Indian Hill Country club, which will celebrate its seventh birthday this summer, with a very gay year to its credit, have begun in a more or less informal > fashion. The club was closed for some weeks during the winter and the Saturday evenings are now resumed, with tentative plans for invitation golf and tennis tournaments. The formal open- (ing dinner dance will be held on Saturday evening of this week. North Shore devotees of the "keep your eye on the ball" game have been applying the sand paper to the mashie and the niblack and the little old putter, and are already out and off down the fair green on that little journey that takes your mind off your business and makes you forget all your little troubles. Sweaters in rose and purple and green and blue are all out of the moth balls and ready to see service a second summer. The North Shore Golf club, just on the boundary of Wilmette and Kenilworth, is planning its grand opening for May 31. Skokie Country club has already opened its doors, and on Sundays, that is the nice ones that we have had, the links are really crowded, con- sidering that the season is really so young. by, 4 Subscriptions totalling $175,000 were hotel, comes the invitation to all announced at the opening luncheon | delegates, writers, authors, editors of the campaign of the Young Wom. | and newspaper women of the north en's Christian association of Chica- | shore to make their headquarters go, which was held last Monday at {---- rer =e the hotel La Salle for workers who are helping to raise the $1,000,000 call- ed for in the 1920 budget of the asso- ciation. The otal every day since has been growing, and it is expected that by next Tuesday the entire sum will be pledged. There are 700 workers active in the campaign, most of whom meet at the daily luncheons given for the purpose of hearing re- ports of work accomplished and methods used with the greatest suc- cess. Among the noon-day speakers have been the Rev. Charles W. Gilkey of the Hyde Park Baptist church, the of the Fourth Presbyterian church, the Rev. James K. G. McClure of McCormick Theological seminary and others. One of the features of the luncheon is the miniature newspaper that is issued daily with news of the cam- pangn and the workers. The Y. W. C. A. is non-sectarian in its profes- sion, being open for all girls who wish to enjoy its privileges, no matter of what race or creed. The money raised in the campaign will be spent largely for providing more housing facilities for the women and girls of the city, and for equipping sum- mer camps for business and teen-age girls. Women and girls in all parts of Chicago and suburbs profit directly | or indirectly by the extension pro- | gram of the Young Women's Chris- | tian association. | We are better prepared to serve you now than ever; so give us a trial and be convinced. We buy and serve the best quality goods. ~~ Our prices will be reduced as fast as food costs will permit. Soon we will have our own bakery installed to make everything we use in that line. A share of your patronage will be appreciated. WILMETTE CAFETERIA | From the Illinois Woman's Press'] 1101 Central Ave. association, which has headquarters Wilmette in the French Room at the Congress Wedding Stationery For the June Bride There is a certain distinction and refinement connected with the quality of the engraving produced at the McClurg Shops. This difference 'is the reason that Spring and Summer Brides entrust their wedding station- ery problems to our experts. Specimens now on display in our Stationery Department offer a host of suggestions for invitations, an- nouncements, and at home cards that nowhere, regardless of cost or pro- duction facilities, can be equaled. Prospective June Brides should sub- mit their engraving problems to us as early as possible, as quality work can- not be produced on short notice. McClurg's 218 SO.
