Everybody is restless, men, women and children. The baby is scarcely out of its crib before it begins looking about for some thing to do, something that is not to be found within the four walls of home. All sorts of public activities are organized to meet this restlessness, to provide that measure of excite- ment that makes life endurable to the child, to the youth, and to the adult. Churches and schools have branched out into the provision of social opportunities for the people who frequent them. Sunday night teas in the church parlors, Friday night dances in the schools, every night movies in great abundance have sprung up to satisfy this spirit of restlessness that has become the characterizing mark of the times. Why all this restlessness? That is what most of us would like to know. It is convenient to lay it to the account of the war, but it began before the war broke. It is fre- quently laid at the door of loosening home ties, to the new sense of free- dom that has developed in women, the growing disposition of mothers to seek and find some interest out- side the home circle and the home walls. It is laid at the doors of the movies, where popular entertainment is to be found at a price within the reach of all, where children may go without infringing too much upon their little allowance for pleasure. Whatever its source, the restless age is upon us and it is incumbent upon the age to direct it into useful chan- nels, to convert the energy that de- velops the restlessness into achiev- ment rather than into mischief that is likely to be resultant. How to change aimless restlessness into energetic pursuit of an ambition and an ideal is the problem that con- fronts those who have in their charge the direction of the lives of young people. It is a problem that cannot be approached too seriously, that cannot be given too much thought.

KAMERA SHOP PROMISES BEST IN PHOTO TRADE "A New Service and Convenience" is the slogan of the Kamera Shop, opened this week at 743 Elm street, with a thoroughly modern plant for photographic finishing and a select line of cameras, kodaks, photo sup- plies and novelties. The Kamera Shop is conducted by C. A. and W. H. Honeywell, the former having had ten years' expegi- ence in high grade studio work and two years with the Eastman Kodak company. W. H .Honeywell is con- sidered an expert finisher and the brothers are prepared to "please the most critical and exacting trade". NORTH SHORE AUTO SALON DEC. 1 T0 4 Latest conveniences, necessities and even luxuries of the automobile world, as exemplified in the new models of some thirty or forty makes of cars, sedans, roadsters, touring cars and laudelets handled by north shore and Chicago dealers will be on display at the annual automobile | show of the north shore. The Oakland-Phillips Motor com- pany at 1013-17 Davis street, Evans- ton, will house the display and the date for the affair has been set by the automobile dealers' association for December 1 to 4. Tt had at first been hoped that the Northwestern gymnasium might be secured for the show. The university authorities however could not see it that way and 'the Oakland-Phillips storage rooms being large and fully lighted were chosen. It has the largest floor space for a building of its kind on the entire north shore. Closed Car Feature One of the features of the display will be the number of closed cars on | exhibition. The joy of 365-day service to the year has so impressed itself on the car buyers that this type of machine is rapidly growing in popu- larity: There will be fifteen booths repre- senting north shore dealers and each dealer will be allowed to display three cars. If each takes his quota as is expected at this time there will be some forty-five local cars on dis- play. Space is also being reserved for the Chicago dealers and there may be some fifty or sixty cars in all on display. No Accessories Show "This will be purely an auto show," said R. D. Cunningham, chairman of the publicity committee, "and we do not intend to reserve any space for accessories. People who come to the display will not be bothered with solicitations to buy some new spark plug or tire filler." The dealers will have their agents on hand to answer questions, dist- ribute literature and take orders. The i different makes of cars to be rep- resented at the show are as follows: Reo, H. C. S., Auburn, Scripps-Both, Maxwell, Paige, Moon, Studebaker, Elgin, Hupmobile Franklin, Willys- Knight Overland, Jackson, Nash, Stearns, Cleveland, Stephens, Chand- ler, Buick, Dodge, Lexington Nation- al, Hudson, Essex, Ford Milburn Light Electric Oakland and Sheridan. The show will be in charge of the following committees: Management, Peter N. Jans, chairman; signs, Earl Coal, chairman, M. R. Walsh and J. B. Coy; printing and advertising, R. D. Cunningham, chairman, C. A. Frid- man and H. H. Quigley; music, C. H. Briggs, chairman, R. Metz and Tracy Holmes; rules, Benjamin E. Gage, chairman, Lincoln Scales and A .H. Peck; decorating, C. M. McDonald, chairman.
