The minutes of the previous club meeting were read and ap- proved. These announcements were made : "The next regular meeting of the club will be held on March 6, under the direction of the Art and Literature com- mittee. A pleasing program is promised on 'Art and Life in Spain' At Com- munity House, Sunday, March 2, there will be an exhibit of arts of many varie- ties, sponsored jointly by Community house and the Woman's club." Mrs. James Porter, in the absence of the chairman of the Educational com- mittee, introduced the speaker of the afternoon, Miss Lydia Schmidt, who recently returned from a fifteen month's study of European conditions. Miss Schmidt was announced to speak on "British Labor and the Ruhr," but chose to call her talk "The United States and the International Situation." Miss Schmidt has sat in the midst of such distinguished gatherings as the Ieague of Nations, the Peace Conference at Holland, the English Parliament, and found, except in England where they are politically more constructive, chaos from lack of law and order. England has been forced to think, for as Furope generally has gone down, so has Eng- land followed, and is distressed over a million unemployed among her forty million people. The begging on the streets is pitiful, and since it is impos- sible to get to even the worthy work, the condition has become bad morally. Yet we expect England to pay interest on her debt to us while the other coun- tries are not pressed. Miss Schmidt spoke with genuine ad- miration of the new premier, Mr. Mac Donald, calling him a very able parlia- mentarian and one of the greatest men in England, praised by his people- for his choice of cabinet. There are many ous problems to face but all polit:- cal parties of England, Communists, Socialists, Industrialists, Nationalists, and the Labor Party which comprises one third of the House of Parliament, confront each other with great toler- ance. At a recent victory demonstra- tion, after a political success, there was a deep religious atmosphere. Regarding the League of Nations, England approves, as does all Europe, but is critical of it as it stands. For the invasion of the Ruhr in the Rhineland, where conditions of suffering from cold, hunger, and terror are al- most unbelieveable, far worse than in France at any time, France alone, is not responsible. England and America share this responsibility. The inhabi- tants of the Ruhr begged that our troops might remain at Coblenz for they gave protection, but the troops were withdrawn. Because of the lawless de- struction of the railroads industry is suspended. France imposes everything French on these mistreated people for France used the Ruhr as security against Germany's possible aggression after the war. France estimates Ger- many's debt to her as thirty three bil- lion whereas twelve or thirteen billion would be a fair amount to exact and yet France refused to join a conference to discuss the subject of debts. Here is where the United States should enter, to be willing to take a bigger view of the whole situation and carry her share of the burden by co- operation with the deep thinkers of Eng- land. Miss Schmidt answered several ques- tions from her interested audience after which there was a social hour in the club parlors. The following were the hostesses of the afternoon: Mrs. C. Anderson Ald- rich, Mrs. E. V. L. Brown, Mrs. Joseph H. Brown, Mrs. Raymond E. Durham, Mrs. Francis A. Lackner, and Mrs. Howard T. Walsh. Helen Bennett to Speak at Wellesley Gathering RS. Frank Warner Kingsley of 1506 Grove street, Evanston, will be the hostess for the next meet- ing of the North Shore Wellesley circle which will take place on Tuesday after- noon, March 4, at 2:30 o'clock. Every member of this group is urged to avail herself of this opportunity to hear Miss Helen Bennett discuss a timely topic of state-wide interest, the "Essington-Small Issue." Miss Bennett, a Wellesley graduate of '98, was in charge of the Collegiate Bureau of Occupations for ten years, having only resigned in the autumn to enter into politics. She is now the chairman of the Medill Mc- Cormick Woman's campaign. Those who knew Miss Bennett in col- lege, and those who have known her in her activities in later years will wel- come this chance to hear her and to have a chat with her during the social hour which will follow after her talk. WINNETKA GIRL IN RECITAL A concert was given on Friday eve- ning, February 22, at the Columbia School of Music Recital hall, by the pupils of Walter Spry.

Joint Club for Harvard, Yale and Princeton Men ANY eastern colleges have their own clubs in Chicago, with branches in Evanston and along the north shore, but something novel in the history of college club organizations has just been organized during the past week.

Quinlan & Tyson FOUNTAIN SQUARE, EVANSTON Telephone Winnetka 2199 A letter | WEST SIDE STANDARD cA New 'ngineering Principle EVANSTON BRANCH 1810 Ridge Ave. 4660 W. Washington Blvd CAD 1 HE new principles of engine design in- corporated in the V-63 Cadillac are found in no other motor car and resultin a degree of smoothness and quiet unequaled in European or American manufacture. While the obvious advantages gained by the go-degree angle between the cylinder blocks have been retained, an entirely new design of crankshaft so balances the inter- nal forces that all perceptible vibration has been eliminated. It is, in the fullest sense, an engineering achievement--probably the most notable of Cadillac's many important contributions to the building of fine motor cars.
