WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1924 GIVE GCTOBER DATE SCHEDULE Office of Community House Compiles First Record of Permanent Date Book AVOIDS DATE CONFLICT Plan of Community List Gains in Favor Community House is publishing this week a schedule of village events for October as recorded in the office there, in the hope that it may be of service in giving information to the public and in helping organizations to avoid conflict- ing dates 'in scheduling events. Such a monthly schedule will be published just before the beginning of each month. As was stated two weeks ago in the Talk, Community House is keeping a "date book" of village events and is willing to act as a clearing house in this matter. But is can.only serve efficient- ly if organizations scheduling events will notify the office of dates planned, and make use of the information already recorded of events scheduled. = Response from village organizations to this ef- fort on the part of Community House has been most enthusiastic. A confer- ence of school leaders and heads of dra- matic oraginzations was held Tuesday, which proved the need of such a service, and which resulted in the change of date of a number of events scheduled for the future. No organization wishes to put an important event in conflict with an- other, nor is the public pleased or well served when two good events come on the same night or follow each other so closely as to make attendance at both not a matter of inclination. But this service, it is explained, can be satisfactory only if leaders of groups and organizations keep constantly in mind and notify the office of events planned, and make use of records in Community House. Any information may be phoned to Mrs. E."W. Wortley at Community House.

SWEITZER URGES THE VOTERS TO REGISTER (Continued from page 1) County Clerk Sweitzer's warning to the voters reads as follows: "TO THE VOTERS OF COOK COUNTY, -OUTSIDE - CHI- CAGO, CHICAGO HEIGHTS, CICERO AND SUMMIT. "You no doubt are aware of the fact that the voters of Cook county, not under the jurisdiction of the election commissioners of the City of Chicago, are not compelled to reg- ister in person. The judges of the various election precincts and dis- tricts sit as a board of registry and enter on the register the names of all known eligible voters, also tak- ing names from previous poll hooks and registers. Avoids Inconvenience "Because many judges in the past have overlooked this important duty and, further, because many of the districts or precincts have a large number 'of voters not known to the judges, many voters have not been entered on the register, thereby caus- ing the voters a great loss of time in making out 'An Affidavit: of Non- Registered Voter' together with a supporting affidavit of a householder, when the voter appears on election day to vote. "To alleviate this inconvenience and to make for a more perfect reg- istration for this most important coming election, I would suggest that each eligible voter present himself or herself for registration at their respective polling place on Saturday, October 4, 1924, (first registration day) or Tuesday, October, 14, 1924, (second registration and revision day) and make certain that he or she is entered on the register as required by law."

That Yelling You Heard Was Skokie Cheer Leaders After going through a set of cales- thentics that would be the envy of Swedish gymnasts, three boys and three girls were chosen cheer leaders from the large field of candidates at the Skokie school this week. During the tryout sessions the rhyth- mic yelling for Skokie could be heard for blocks surrounding the school build- ing. All the pupils cheered with their favorite candidates as though they were urging the school team to hold 'em in a close game. The successful candidates were Ruth Root, Mary Forrest, Helen Smith, Ben Thompson, Allen Stults and John Mil- ton. These girls and boys will lead the Skokie rooters in all inter-school con- tests. State Bank Shows Big Advance in Two Years The Winnetka State Bank celebrated its second anniversary of its occupancy of the new building October 2. On Mon- day, October 2, 1922, the bank started business in the new building on Elm street with $84,000 resources, October 2, 1924, the bank had rcsources of $1,- 100,000. Friends of the officers of the bank sent bouquets of flowers which were placed on the bannister separating the desks from the main lobby of the bank. Henry R. Hale is president; Louis B. Kuppenheimer, vice president; Sanborn Hale, cashier; and Victor Elting, Carl- ton Prouty and Noble Hale members of the board of directors. Among Life's Rev. Stephen A. Lloyd Tells Students They Have a Great Responsibility "Great lives in little places" was the subject of an address given by Rev. Stephen A. Lloyd of Wilmette to the students of the National Kindergarten and Elementary college at their open- ing assembly last week. Mr. Lloyd pointed out that in reality life is simply a combination of two elements --a set of apparent facts, which we call our environment, and 'the inter- pretation of these apparent facts. "The thing that makes life different," said Mr. Lloyd, "is not the variety in the sets of facts, but the differences in the interpretation which is made of these facts. If you can put upon all the facts which we call environ- ment an interpretation which will make for good will and satisfaction and happiness, you will live a big life, be the place large or small. "As a matter of fact," continued Mr. Lloyd, "You don't need a very big place to live a big life. In this work-a-day, commonplace world, life is measured, not by its setting, but by its content. You are all entering upon some field of service. Some are think- ing of a home, and may feel that it is narrow and restricting or binding. It need not be. You may not have all the latest books or the finest furniture, but it takes more than furnishings to make.a home--it takes true lives. It is a wonderful thing to find joy in life--it is a still bigger thing to make joy in life. Chance to Build Lives In speaking of the opportunities ahead of those who are to be teachers of little children Mr. Lloyd called at- tention to the fact that it is not enough for the teacher to train minds --she must build lives as well. She has the first chance, and the best World Friendship, Theme at Woman's Society Meet The World Friendship meeting of the Woman's society of the Winnetka Con- gregational church is to be held at the home of Mrs. N. Landon Hoyt, 435 Elm street, on Wednesday, October 8, at 2:30 o'clock. This is the first program of the autumn series, and the committee, under the chairmanship of Mrs. Charles F. Karnopp, has secured as speaker of the day Mrs. Lucius O. Lee, of Chicago, who has recently returned from a six- month's trip to Japan, China and India. Mrs. James A. Richards will open the devotional part of the program, and Mrs. Burton F. Atwood will sing a group of songs. The annual mission- ary thank-offering envelopes are to be brought at this time. A number of women who have cars will be glad to take any who would like transportation, if such will telephone Mrs. Jewell, 535-W, or Community House office. This indicates that the invitation to attend the meeting is given to every woman who thinks she would enjoy the afternoon. $50 AND COSTS Melvin Shangrean, Evanston, will be more careful when he drives through Winnetka hereafter. When be was brought before Justice B. A. Nelson for speeding and reckless driving, this week, Shangrean agreed with the justice that it was advisable to drive slow and be careful, after he had been fined $50 and costs. Places Kindergarten Teaching Important Tasks chance, to put into the lives of little children the things that stay, the quality of manhood and womanhood that makes life worth the living. "You will have a part in writing the laws of the nations for the next generation," reminded Mr. Lloyd. "Though you may not hold the pen, you will direct the mind and heart and soul of those who will bring the nations together and make the world fit to live in. This is living the big- gest kind of a life in a small place. "You are going to have your part in all the reforms of the future--in making the world a tolerant place, a place of patience and virtue in the coming years. You will have some- thing to do with raising the standards of living--not putting radio sets or fine bath tubs in every home, but creating a state of mind which will make our country more nearly what it should be. "Harvest Time is Spring" "You are going to be a bringer of real religion, which, if anything, is to save the wold. Religion is the inter- pretation of experience which puts a sense of worth and dignity and good- will into life, and if you live this and carry it with you into the school and home and community there will be a fine harvest in the coming years. "Does that seem a long, long way ahead? The time for harvest is not September--it is the spring when the first furrow is turned and the seed is planted. What the harvest is to be in 1940 or 1950 is determined by the seed you plant now--on whether you choose to put a great or a petty inter- pretation on your environment."
