WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1922 Boys and Girls of the Winnetka Community Summer Camps last sum- mer surprised their leaders and par- ents by constructing a reinforced con- crete look-out tower, sixty feet In height, at Lake Hamlin. The boys started the tower during their weeks in camp and the girls did a fine job of completing the structure. The tower overlooks the entire camp and the environs for many miles around. The principal purpose of the tower is to provide a signal station to keep the camp in constant touch with ex: ploring expeditions which are a fea- ture of the camp program. Book Reviews By John Philip Morris Although it is nearly a year since A YOUNG GIRL'S DIARY issued from the press, its almost immediate sup- pression until just now, makes it prac- tically a new book and open to review. Herr Docktor Professor Sigmund Freud vouches for the genuineness of this record but even with his recom- mendation of character it reads like another CHRISTINE, too good and too pat to be true. However, taking this view will get us exactly nowhere, so let us believe implicitly that this record is exactly what it says it is, the written record of the thoughts and acts between the ages of eleven and fourteen and a half, of a person of the female sex. Grete Lainer lived in Vienna. She had a papa, a mama, a big brother, and an inquiring mind. On her eleventh birthday she began keeping a diary and wrote down her impres- sions and some of her actions nearly every day for three and a half years. Grete belonged to the upper classes : and was being brought up to be a lady. Her actions, companions and activi- ties were carefully ordered and super- vised and her reactions were- mostly due to that most abhorred of natural phenomena--a vaccumn. She started life with a strong sex complex and the lack of enuf cold baths, physical exercise, novels and co- education made her seek to study sex to fill up her time and to fulfill her natural tendencies. Now sex is indubitably the strongest single force in this our world and cur- osity about it is natural and universal. We have begun to realize this in Am- erica and to make our arrangements accordingly so that our young will con- sider it as a matter of course and nothing either mysterious or disgust- ing but in Vienna where sex is never ' preached but heavily practiced a kid has got to become her own research committee. : Grete certainly found out some queer things and came to some absolutely wrong conclusions in the course of her investigations and experiments and if her mother could only have gone to a woman's club and heard a lecture and then come home and had a Heart to Heart Talk with her little daughters or, if she had only remembered the repressions of her own girlhood how many bitter thoughts and dreads Grete would have been spared. Fortune favored Grete throwing in her path more material on which to work and more sexual experiences than fall to the lot of the average girl (1 hope). Every mother should read A YOUNG GIRL'S DIARY and should use it as a lexicon for with its help she may greatly help her own daughter. Every man should read it for nowhere is the sexual difference in the two sexes more poignantly and strongly portrayed and it will help a man to understand not only his own daughter but that most insoluable of riddles, women.

Registrations were taken last week, and everything set for work for the season. The Morning gymnasium class for women will meet two mornings in the week--Tuesday and Thursday, at 9 o'clock.
