WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1924 LAUNCH INFANT WELFARE DRIVE Winnetka Branch of Society Makes Annual Appeal for Funds SERVICE IS DESCRIBED "Be Generous and Help" Reads the Plea The annual drive for funds of the Winnetka branch-of the Infant Wel- fare society has begun. Officers of the branch are telling of the society's good work and of the crying need for financial aid. Mrs. Morris Wilson, president of the local branch, and Mrs Edmund Bartlett, secretary, this week issued the following communication, giving a brief account of the activities of the organization and embodying an appeal for contributions from residents of the community. "If you are interested in saving lives of babies in Chicago give to the Win- netka branch of the Infant Welfare socetiy. Through it Winnetka helps right in a quarter of the city where the baby death rate is very hich. All the money reased by it in Winnetka aes to the work of the Infant Wel- fare station »t the Chicago Commons Most of it is spent to maintain three nurses who spend all thei rtime m-kine calls and helnine mothers prepare food for the little ones. Service Th-t Ccun?s "It's the doctor at the conference who tells mother what baby needs to eat. But mother finds it hoard to fol- low instructions. Everything is so different in Chica~o from what it is in Italy: the weather, the grocery, the stove. Jesides she isn't used to bothering about measuring and cook- ine and the care of milk. But baby gets thinner and thinner, and other Conference babies look so rosy. And then, one day, mother wakes up, and does exactly what nurse has been showing her so long how to do. Ard then when she goes to the Infant Wel- fare conference baby shows a decided gam! Cuts Death Rate "The death rate of Chicagn habia under two is about 54 to a 1,000, of infant Welfare babies about 14 to a 1,000. The Infant Welfare society helps, to make Chicago a healthier city. The annual drive of the Win- netka branch for funds has begun. Every little contrubution helps. Do be generous and help! If you don't know one of the workers, send your contribution to Mrs. Morris Wilson, 429 Sheridan road, president, or to Mrs. Edmund Bartlett, 589 Lincoln street, treasurer." Telephone 1098 ALEC W.

Stolp ~chool, Wilmette. It is very seldom one is informed that any chorus ever attempts dramatization to music to such an extent as this or- ganization is planning. Eighty voices will participate including a cast of 15, two adult choruses, a boys' chorus, and a girls' chorus. The entire performance will be accompanied by the church or- 'hestra of 20 pieces and will be in full costume with properties and stage set- tings. The music dramatization and staging is under the direction of Orville Borchers, present director of music at the church. "The dramatization of a sacred ora- torio is a very noble art and we are anxious to give it a big start on the north shore," says Mr. Borchers. "It has a distinct place and value among people of religious culture and we are anxious to have the largest support. The great story of 'Esther' is a worthy start and is most interesting and enjoyable when dramatized." "According to present indications," he continues. "Church people are realizing the real value in this work and hold the work of the Methodist chorus in high csceem."" Tickets are selling rapidly and it is advisable to buy eariy.
