MASONS TO INDULGE IN BILLIARD MEET Announcements have just gone out to members of the Winnetka lodge of Masons indicating that the fine billiard room on the third floor of the Masonic temple is to be the scene of consider- able activity this month. According to the announcement a bil- liard tournament will be staged begin- ning October 21, which promises to be one of the largest affairs of its kind ever held in Winnetka. In addition there will be a pocket billiard tourna- ment at the same time and entries have been coming in quite rapidly during the last few days. One of the advertised features of these tournaments is the fact that the poor players have just as good chance to win prizes as those who think they are particularly good. This should sway many to enter who may not have had much experience or who lack recent practice. The committee in charge consists of Charles J. Eastman, chairman, Elmer E. Adams, U. C. Abel and Harry Cad- enhead. Entries close on October 13, and are to be sent to the chairman of the committee at 984 Cherry street. All members of Winnetka lodge are eligible to compete. at 7:15 Lynn Williams President of Country Day P.-T. Body The Parent-Teacher association of the North Shore Country Day school at its meeting last Monday evening held elections for the coming year. The officers now are: Lynn Williams, president; J. F. Dammann, vice presi- dent, and Mrs. Hathaway Watson, secretary-treasurer. The Monday meeting holds a record for attendance, the Assembly hall be- ing packed to the doors. After the general meeting, the various grade as- sociations met§together as planned, organized for year, and brought up problems interest to their re- spective gradesffor discussion at meet- ings during th&* winter. At an early date each grade will meet to enter upon its work of study and cooperation. CHURCH AWAITS ITS ANNIVERSARY FETE (Continued from page 1) the time during the week so that guests may write letters, rest, or meet old friends for a quiet visit. Tea will be served in the afternoons. Here too, one may arrange to participate in the sight-seeing 'auto trips which are planned for the mornings. It is thought that those who had been away from the village for some time will be greatly interested in the changes and improvements, which have taken place in their absence. Anniversary Meeting The special anniversary meeting of the Woman's society will be held on Wednesday, beginning at 10 o'clock in the morning. Several former mem- bers will be present and take part, starting with a devotional service led by Mrs. Quincy IL. Dowd. Mrs. Ed- win E. Snell will furnish some of the same music which was such a delight in other years. Mrs. "R. E. Member," an incarnation of the days of 74, will relate a few interesting tales of those early times. She expects to bring with her some old cronies dressed in the costumes they wore fifty years ago. And then when Mrs. Maurice H. Lieber starts telling what she knows about later developments in the church and the Woman's society it will make those older women open their eyes. Luncheon is to be served, for the usual charge, in Rudolph Matz hall at 12:30 o'clock and in the afternoon there will be just a happy re-union meeting and talk-fest, with perhaps more music, in the Neighborhood room. Dinner Committee Notice The dinner committee urges especi- ally that all planning to attend the fellowship dinner on Monday evening, send for their tickets at once. The caterer and corps of service must know as far ahead as possible how many to prepare for, and with such a large crowd, it may be hard to take good care of late comers. Send your check to "50th Anniversary Dinner Committee" at Community House for your tickets, or call and pay for them in person. The entertainment division of the dinner group has arranged a program which will not be divulged until the night comes. But inside information in the hands of the press committee indicates that the evening will be long remembered by old timers and new comers alike. The Woman's Guild of Christ church is resuming its regular weekly meetings Monday. Tea is served at 4 o'clock to the members who meet to sew. On the first Monday of the month, the women meet all-day. iy The first meeting of the New Trier circle will be held Monday, October 13, at the home of Mrs. Roy A. Whip- ple, 170 Woodland avenue. Mrs. Sherman Orwig will be assisting hos- fess, 1s for Camphor Candy Collodion Cascara Cosmetics Careful folks keep well sup- plied for emergency use.

Meltzer and the creation of the David Bispham Memorial Medal award for American opera. The avowed purpose of this society is, among other things, to encourage the use of the En- lish language in opera and concert and the performance of American operas; also to give just recognition to the American composer of ability. A renewal of interest in American opera, according to Mrs. Archibald Freer of Chicago, national chairman of this society, has resulted in the pro- duction, in part or whole, of works by Stearns, Cadman, Deleone, Carter, Chadwick, Browne, and other Ameri- can composers. The latest list drawn up by the society contains the names of 99 native operas. Anyone desiring further aetails should address Mrs. Howard Tracy, 332 Cedar street, Winnetka. Mr. and Mrs. Victor Harding of Hubbard Woods have returned from the east where they visited their daughter, Jane, who is attending Smith, and their son, Victor, who is going to Exter aca- demy.
