Emons har ie ---- ' | aa Sy CAOWD AUDITORIUM TOHEARSNPHOIY First Students' Concert by Little Symphony Attracts Record Gathering MANY TURNED AWAY First Evening Concert on November 14 Before an overflow house, the first of the North Shore Students' Orches- tra concerts was given in the New Trier High school auditorium Tues- day afternoon by the Little Sym- phony of Chicago, George Dasch, con- ductor. M.. Dasch first introduced the or- chestra, and explained the purposes of the ° different sections--string, brass, wood-wind and percussion-- naming the instruments in each. As each instrument was named, a few notes were played upon it, so that the grammar and high. school stu- dents present would become familiar with its pitch and timbre. The, program opened with the stir- ring strains of Schubert's Marche Militaire and closed with the Hun garian Rhapsody No. 2 by Liszt. This rhapsody with its ever-changing tempo, swift, tripping measures blend- ed with a slow sedate air--the wild- ness of a gypsy song, has long been a favorite with concert-goers. The Lit- tle Symphony's orchestration was splendid; there are only twenty-five members. Other numbers on were as follows: the program Unfinished symphony, first move- TIT: rt) El Mere SR Intermezzo from The Jewels of the Madonna. cq covinnnvs Wolf-Ferrari Meditation from Thais a) Minuet Boccherini b) Poupee Valsante (Dolly Dances) JN Poldini The second concert will be given 'Tuesday afternoon, Nov. 14. Many people were turned away at the doors iast Tuesday, but the eve- PANGS ~ ning concerts given under auspices Of | the New Trier Township Orchestral association will afford many a way to hear good music. November 14 is the date of the first evening con- cert.

Dryden's ball room, 1314 Ridge ave. Evanston, Wednesday afternoon of this week to hear in detail the interesting plans for Petticoat Lane, the mammoth enter- tainment and sale to be held the 10th and 11th of November, to enrich the endowments of these four women's colleges. Mrs. Robert Wyness Millar, chairman of the custome committee, outlined the scheme for transforming the Country club of Evanston into the likeness of the famous street fair of London's East End. Chairmen of the various stalls and entertainment fea- tures made important announcements. The meeting closed with a short talk by Mrs. Andrew MacLeish, of Glencoe, one of Vassar's best known alumnae. Mrs. Robert S. DeGolyer presided. Schubert : president, very generously gave the Massenet | ywinnetka's greatest achievement. $60,000 for This Week | | Winnetka Woman's Club HE opening meeting of the Win- netka Woman's Club for the year 1922-23 was held at the clubrooms October 5. One hundred and seventy laides were served with a delicious luncheon in the parlors. During the summer the rooms had been redecor- ated and made very attractive. Many expressions of approval of the color scheme were heard. At 2:30 the meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. Wil loughby Walling, who also made sev- eral announcements. Miss Matz, corresponding secre- tary, has received 427 replies to questionnaires which she had sent to club members as to whether any other day of the week would be preferable for club meeting day. The majority were in favor of Thursday. Mrs. Edwin E. Brown gave a most interesting and enlightening report of the General Federation of Woman's clubs which met in Springfield May 93-25. She brought to the club a clear and concise view of the work which the Federation hopes to accomplish through the co-operation of the many clubs throughout the state. The club furnished the refreshment stand on the Village Green for the Fourth of July festivities, but on ac- count of the unseasonable weather the receipts were not as large as formerly, being a little over $181. Six former club presidents were present and gave five minute ad- dresses. The first president of the club, Dr. Alice-Barlow Brown, is in Europe continuing the hospital work which she began during the world war. Mrs. William A. Otis, the second | president, told of the purchase of the clubhouse from the Winnetka Men's Club. The 150 members worked hard to secure subscriptions with which to purchase and remodel the building. Mrs. M. H. Lieber, third president, was engaged in organizing a class in Citizenship in another city in the state and could not be present. Mrs. Lieber's class in Citizenship for all Winnetka women will begin Tues- day, October 10, at 10 a. m. and will continue each Tuesday at the same ! hour for ten weeks. | Mrs. William C. Boyden, fourth honors of her term of office to the vice-president as she was ill most of the year. She believes the club is Mrs. E. W. Wortley, fifth president said the greatest objective during her term was trying to get rid of the mort- gage and that she felt grateful for the vision of service which was given by Dr. Brown and others who founded the club. Mrs. Wortley gave the members food for thought in three suggestions for future work which the club might undertake: first, re- ducing the high cost of living in Win- netka; second, supervision of chil- dren's. reading; third, could the club stand back of a high class restaurant for Winnetka? | Mrs. Carrie Prouty, sixth president, | and who served during the period of the war, 1917-1919, said that the ques- tion of finances during her term of office was paramount. No year book was published and expenses were cut in every way but the indebtedness was paid off and a ceremony made of burning the mortgage. Mrs. James F. Porter, seventh presi- dent, who followed in the reconstruc- tion period, said she felt like a sec- ond wife, who reaped all the benefits for which the first wife toiled and slaved. A number of organizations have grown out of the club for which it stands sponsor. Two of these are: The Parent-Teachers' association and the League of Women Voters. She believes the club should be a forum for free speech. We should be more courageous in hearing the things we do not like discussed. Mrs. George W. Gordon, the eighth president, who was ill during most of last year's term of office, appre- ciated the fact that the club was so well organized that the work could go on through the different offices and committees. The purchase of the grand piano was made during this time and the club also reached the limit of the club membership and a waiting list was formed. The first musical program for the year followed and was much enjoyed and given to an appreciative audi- ence. The trio, Mesdames Robinson, Hansel and Cooley, whose voices blended artistically, gave delightful selections ably accompanied by Mrs. Orcutt. The piano solos by Mrs. Albert Pick, Jr., were particularly brilliant, reaching a true finale in the Moskow- ski number. Mrs. Pick responded to one group after the first group. Mrs. Brewer as usual pleased and particularly so in the depth and char- acter given to Burleigh's "Deep River." Mrs. Arthur Dean, always a favorite, accompanied Mrs. Brewer. The next meeting of the club will be on Thursday, October 19, at 2:30, in charge of the Education Commit- tee, subject, "Educational Tendencies in Modern India"; speaker, Mr. Parak- nath Das. The following ladies will be hostesses: Mrs. Frank Crawford. Mrs. Frank Fowle, Mrs. Lawrence Janney, Mrs. Roswell Mason and Mrs. William S. Miller.
