. WINNETKA WEEKLY TAL The Timely Reccrd of Community Events VOL. XI, NO. 35 WINNETKA, ILLINOIS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1922 TWENTY-FOUR PAGES PRICE FIVE CENTS LOCAL GANDIDATES WINNER ON TUESDAY Every New Trier Candidate Sucessful at Polls Roll- Up Big Majorities SPRINGER Rathbone, Penfield, Mac- Lean Also Win IN LEAD New Trier township's home candi- dates scored decisive victories at the polls Tuesday despite the fact that Cook county went heavily into the Democratic column. In spite of a large democratic vote on the north shore--probably the largest in the history of New Trier-- the Republican candidates claiming New Trier as their home rolled up big majorities and came through with colors flying. Rathbone Gets Big Vote Henry Riggs Rathbone, of Kenil- worth and newly elected Congress- man-at-large, polled a total of 4417 votes in twenty of the twenty-three precincts in the township, with Rich- ard Yates, the other Republican can- didate, coming in an easy second with 4213. Springer Leads Ticket Lewis B. Springer, candidate for representative in the general assem- bly, polled the largest vote in the township, with a total of 5353% in the twenty indicated precincts. His run ning mate, Howard P. Castle, was a close second with 5221%. These fig- ures exceeded the total vote cast in the township in view of the fact that, with those to be elected, a vote for either one counted 3 and a vote for each counted for three votes divided equally between them. Penfield Leads Field As was to be expected, Frederick 'W. Penfield, Glencoe village presi: dent and candidate on the Repub- lican County Commissioner ticket, led the field comfortably, bringing in a uniformly large majority in every precinct for a total of 4063. William H. MacLean, also a resident of the township, came second with a total of 3968. The entire ticket backed by the New Trier Township Republican club was victorious both in the town- ship and in the other country town districts of the county. Righeimer Repudiated One of the significant reversals of custom in north shore election re- sults was the stinging defeat admin- istered Frank S. Righeimer, Repub- lican candidate for County Judge, by Edmund K. Jarecki, the democratic aspirant, Jarecki came through with a total of 3075 as against Righeimer's 2279. Righeimer's alleged leaning to Thompsonism was thought to have been responsible for the flat repudia- tion at the polls. Although defeated in the county at large, Charles S. Peterson received an overwhelming majority over Anton J. Cermak in the New Trier ballot- ing on the Presidency of the Board of County Commissioners. Peterson's total was 4016, as against 1289 for his opponent. Women Poll Good Vote The splendid totals received by Mrs. Jean P. Washburn and Miss Elizabeth Shroyer in the county commissioner fight, although neither was elected, gave evidence of mate- rial strength. Both candidates made a favorable impression in the cam- paigning, despite the fact that they were on the democratic ticket in an almost solid Republican community. Election returns from twenty of the twenty-three districts in New "Trier township are to be found in another column of this page. Three of the precincts are missing in view of the fact that the officials in pre- cincts one, two and eleven failed, as promised, to turn in the results to the headquarters of the New Trier Township Republican club in Wil- mette., Two of the missing precincts are in Glencoe and the third is at In- dian Hill. Legion Men Banquet Tonight in Honor of Armistice Day Tonight's the night insofar as mem- bers of the Winnetka Post, American Legion are concerned. Being Armistice night, the legion holds its annual dinner which, this vear, will be served at the now famous Northfield Inn, conducted by Frank Bartelme, and located a few miles west of the village on the road to Shermerville. Major Reid Landis will be guest of honor at the banquet and the principal speaker of the evening. SACRED HEART HOLDS ITS SILVER JUBILEE Archbishop lein to Be Honor Gu Parish Sunday, ber 19 PLAN EVENTS Entertainments, Dinner, Re- ception, Dance Feature MEMORIES A little place of worship, half hidden 'neath the trees, The quiet broken only by the whis- pering of the breeze And the bird-songs among the branch- es. Those days no auto horn Disturbed the quiet beauty of the Mass on Sunday morn. Without distraction, then, we read our prayers, and had no thought Of golf-links, blow-outs, price of gas and tires! These things were naught. The carry-all in which we came to church--the sway-backed gray That pulled us through the muds of Spring, have long since passed away. The drinking-fountain, too, that stood beside the door, The rusty tin cup dangling, all are gone forevermore. And many old-time worshippers--the friends of yesteryear Who helped to build the little church--we hold their memory dear. I wonder if from where they are in heaven they can see The fruits of their devotion on our Silver Jubilee! (By Goe. B. Walkey, President Sacred Heart Holy Name Socioty, Sacred Heart Parish, Hubbard Woods, Ill.) Sacred Heart Parish, Hubbard Woods, celebrates its Silver Jubilee and the twenty-fifth anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev. F. J. Haarth with special services and parish events beginning Sunday, November 12. Great joy is evident in the parish over the announcement that Arch- bishop George W. Mundelein of the Chicago Diocese will be an honored guest in the Parish Sunday, Novem- ber 19, upon the occasion of the cele- bration of a Solemn High Mass of Thanksgiving. Big Dinner Tuesday Silver Jubilee festivities begin Sun- day, November 12, with an entertain- ment by the children of the parish school. Women of the parish, repre- senting the Married Ladies' Sodality, will give a special Silver Jubilee din- ner Tuesday evening, an event of par ticular significance to the men of the parish, who, on previous occasions, have known the joys of sitting down to these unexcelled banquets. Ad- vance notices on the dinner sound tempting enough to suit the most ex- acting taste, what with Roast Turkey and all the "trimmins' " on the menu. The committee in charge includes Mrs. William J. Schneider, chairman, Mrs. Paul Brandl, Mrs. Charles Ryan, Mrs. John Fisher. Reminiscence Meeting The Holy Name society members are to have charge of affairs Wednes- day evening, November 15, at a re- union and reminiscence gathering to be featured by brief talks and a pro- gram of music. Friday evening, November 17, is the time of the Silver Jubilee Reception and Dance given under direction of the St. Rose Sodality. The week of festivity terminates Sunday, November 19, with the cele- bration of Solemn High Mass, partici- pated in by Right Rev. George W. Mundelein. Richards Discusses Sweitzer Volume on Wednesday Night Wednesday evening, November 15, the address on modern books by Rev. James A. Richards will be a discus- sion of the subject, "On the Edge of the Primeval Forest," by Prof. Al- bert Sweitzer. Prof. Sweitzer is both a historical scholar and a writer of international reputation and an authority on the life and music of Bach. After attain- ing eminence in these two lines, he studied medicine and went to work in tropical Africa. This book is the record both of his experience and of his reflections in Africa. Election Results New Trier Township Figures given below were secured through the courtesy and public spir- ited efforts of Nicholas P. Miller, secretary of the New Trier Township Republican club. The figures represent complete re- turns from twenty of the twenty- three precincts in New Trier town- ship. Absence of returns from Pre- cincts 1 and 2 in Glencoe, and 11 in Winnetka, is due to the fact that fig- ures were not given out by the elec- tion officials in those precincts.

MASON CEENDNY INPRESSV EVENT More Than 1,500 People Witness Constituting of New Lodge OFFICERS INSTALLED Visiting Lodges Are Well Represented Winnetka Masonic lodge, No. 1078, was formally Constituted Tuesday evening, November 7, at beautiful and impressive ceremonies witnessed by more than 1,500 residents of Win- netka and neighboring communities. Jame Kuppenheimer Memorial Hall at Skokie school was peculiarly suited to the occasion with officials of the order gracing the spacious stage, members of the Winnetka lodge and of visiting lodges occupying the large gymnasium on the one side, and the general public comfortably seated in the large auditorium oppo- site. The expedient of converting two large enclosures into a common audi- torium with intervening stage, proved particularly effective for such an oc: casion as this Constituting service. Grand Lodge in Charge Constituting ceremonies were con- ducted by members of the Grand Lodge with Deputy Grand Master William C. Rapp in charge. Grand Master Elmer C. Beach was present and spoke convincingly of the remark- able opportunity offered in this splen- did community for the work of the newly constituted lodge. Fred Ellert, Deputy: Grand Master of the 17th district, in which the new Winnetka lodge is placed, installed some of the officers and John Plat- ner, Grand Marshal, added a touch of color to the services by an entirely original and interesting discharge of his important duties. * J Many Lodges Represented Representatives of many neighbor- ing lodges were present to greet the newly constituted Winnetka lodge. Among these were men affiliated with the Evanston, Wilmette and Glencoe lodges, and about fifty members of the Wauwautosa lodge of Milwaukee who chartered a special car on the North Shore line to bring them to Winnetka. Following the Constituting cere- monies a male quartet, which had taken part in the services, entertained with songs while the gymnasium was cleared for the dance. Dancing, refreshments and a shower of flowers for the women guests terminated an event that will be of historic interest in the village through all the years, and that brought some- thing new and vital into the commu- nity life. Officers installed at the Consti- tuting ceremonies were: Thomas Norris: Wheatley, Worshipful Mas- ter; George Enfield Frazer, Senior Warden; George Jones Barbery, Junior Warden; Allen Thurman Weinstock, Treasurer; Andrew Field Battey, Secretary; James William Frederick Davies, Chaplain; William Frederick Groene, Senior Deacon: William Franklin Kentnor, Junior Deacon; Paul Laubie Hunter, Senior Steward; Edward Anson Anderson, Junior Steward; Earl Lewis Wein- stock, Marshal; Walter Herman Nie- mann, Tyler.

TUBBS (Principal, New Trier High School) Parents who have sons or daugh- ters in high school very naturally are interested in all those factors which make for successful school work. We shall endeavor in this article to point out some of the essentials which will materially contribute toward bringing about this happy re- sult. The four years of high school cover that period in the life of high school students when they are form- ing physical, social and mental habits which they will carry with them throughout life. Need Home Co-operation There are certain fundamental considerations that underlie the suc- cess of a high school student just the same as for any other undertaking in life. These elements must be carefully regulated if the student's high school career is to be profitable and successful. guarantee that certain conditions were taken care of, the school would be safe in assuring parents that re- sults commensurate with the ability of the student would be achieved. The work which we are able to do in high school is in direct proportion to the degree of co-operation between the home and the school. Our work is greatly handicapped if the home does not make it a business to main- tain the proper environmert... t ovt-of-door activities, and _ car attend to cultivating proper att tude of the student toward his g First: = The responsibility for the health of the high school student, both physical and mental, rests pri- marily upon the parents. If either of these is defective, it is impossible for the school to hope for maximum results. Should Enter School Activities Second: If the high school student has the proper encouragement at home and enjoys good health, he will be wide-awake and alert in the class room. Alertness is one of the funda- mentals of success in high school work. A student who lacks this qual- ity will soon find himself trailing in the rear of the educational proces- sion. It ig just as necessary for the student to be alert in order to main- tain his position in his clasg as it was for our forebears to be forever watchful to preserve their lives. The high school student should not only have his senses set to a high pitch in the class-room, but he should take an active interest in all matters per- taining to the school in order that he shall te well-rounded when he has finished his course. Third: Occasionally a high school student will try to get through his daily tasks by bluffing. There is nothing that will take the place of consistent hard work. The student who is earnest, hard-working, and honest will very soon command the respect of both his fellows and his teachers. Given ordinary ability and persistence this type of student is sure to succeed. Punctuality Essential Fourth: Regularity is another prime essential to success. This ap- plies not only to school attendance and punctuality but to the perform- ance of every school duty. The stu- dent who is regular in his efforts 'is also dependable. Dependability is a virtue that every high school student should cultivate. Quite a number of parents do not seem to appreciate the importance of regular and punctual attendance. One day's absence means a break in the continuity of school work that is difficult to repair. A few days' absence creates a gap that fre- quently means total failure. It makes very little difference what the other conditions are in the life of a high school student, if he is irregular in attendance he cannot be expected to succeed. Children Over-Stimulated Fifth: It is estimated that the out- of-school life of high school students is responsible for 90% of all failures. Every one who is at all observant agrees that the boys and girls in our community, of high school age, are over-stimulated. Many parents are derelict in se.ing to it that their chil- dren get the proper amount of rest (Continued on page 12) If the home could SEEORIETR SUES Se IE. eee
