a -- 'Misses Rohrig, WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1922 7 OCIAL Mme. Marie Standish To Feature Opening Drama Study Class ADAME MARIE-LYDIA STAN- DISH, one of the most noted interpreters of ancient French, English and Irish folk tales, will ap- pear before the Winnetka Woman's club Monday afternoon, November 6, this being the opening meeting of the Drama Study Class for the year. Madame Standish is a pupil of Yvette Guilbert, but with a rare charm and personality all her own. Her story songs are given en costume, with per- fect detail and accuracy, and are ac- companied by music specially com- posed, or adapted from appropriate themes. "She is today the leading in- terpreter in this country of ancient folk-lore tales after the school and manner of Yvette Guilbert." "Her articulation, accent and intonation are models of correctness and beau- ty." "A radiance of something extra- ordinary dances about Madame Stan- dish and she fairly illuminates her surroundings." This unusually attractive program will be given at three o'clock Monday afternoon, November 6, at the Wom- an's club. Those who are not mem- bers of the club are very welcome on payment of the usual guest fee. Mem- bers of the club are also asked to pro- cure tickets from anyone of the fol- lowing committee: Mrs. Frederick Dickinson, Mrs. Stuart Bailey, Mrs. Ernest Ballard, Mrs. E. V. L. Brown, Mrs. William Ogden Coleman, Mrs. Jerome Frank, Mrs. J. Williams Macy, or Mrs. Carrie B. Prouty. ---- The First Methodist Church of Wil- mette, made very attractive with an arch of pink roses and large bowls of roses against a background of palms, was the setting of another lovely au- tumn wedding, last Saturday evening, when Miss Ruth Moulding, garbed in her mother's wedding gown of deep lvory satin beaded in crystals and pearls, remodeled, became the bride of Robert E Wooden of Evanston, son of Mr and Mrs. Charles R.
