WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1924 WINNETKA STARS IN GUILD PLAY Mrs. E. B. L. Brown Appears in Leading Role The complete cast was announced this week for the North Shore Theatre Guild's opening production of "The En- chanted Cottage." A large number of Winnetka people are in the cast. In addition to Guy Stewart Bailey, who is making his reappearance in the leading part, Mrs. E. B. L. Brown and J. Williams Macy of Winnetka are making their reappearance with the Guild in this production. Mrs. Brown has appeared previously in "Twelve Hundred a Year," "Dear Brutus" and "March Hares." Mr. Macy has played in "Come Seven," "Pygmalion," "Dear Brutus," "Twelve Hundred a Year" and "Mary 'the Third." Mrs. Brown is playing the part of Mrs. Smallwood, and opposite her is Percy B. Eckhart, who is making his first reappearance after a year's absence from the casts, as Mr. Smallwood. Both parts are filled with great high comedy possibilities. Their parts are rich with humorous lines and amusing situations. Mr. Macy is playing Hillary, a blind man, which calls for great emotional acting and yet a lively sense of humor. It is the strongest part that Mr. Macy has ever played. Mrs. Alexander O. Mason of Highland Park, Mr. Thomas Rollo and Miss Margaret Fabian of Evanston complete the cast. Miss FElea- nor Eckhart of Kenilworth, as announcad last week, is playing the leading girl's part. The dates for the Winnetka perform- ances are November 8 and 10, for High- land Park and Lake Forest the nights previous, and November 11 for Kenil- worth. Applications for membership in the Guild are now being received by Mrs. J. Cordner West of Winnetka. ANNOUNCE VOTING HOURS Voters are requested to bear in mind that polling places will be open from 7 A. M. until 5 P. M. on Election Day, November 4. "ICEBOUND" COMES AS COMMUNITY HOUSE FILM Tuesday, October 28, will find "Ice- bound" at the Community House pic- tures. This is not just another story of the "great frozen north" as the title might indicate, it is explained, but the dramatic romance of "icebound" hearts, struggling for sunshine. It should be sufficient to say that the best judges in the land awarded the Pulitzer prize for the greatest Ameri- can play to "Icebound." Next Friday, the regular motion pic- ture program will be dispensed with due to- the annual Hallowe'en party. However, there will be free movies on the program for that night, as an- nounced in another column of this paper. Plans are now under way for a gala election night program with election results screened as received by radio and by a special arrangement with the Western Union Telegraph company. The program will consist of two fea- ture pictures, comedies, News reel. and several stage specialties, and will start at 8 o'clock running to midnight. Further announcement next week. Alma Gluck to Sing in Auditorium on Sunday Thousands were turned away irom the historic Manhattan Opera House, New York City, last Sunday night, when Alma Gluck, after an absence of more than three years returned to the concert stage for her first appearance on her transcontinental tour. Perhaps no singer since the halcyon days of Jennie Lind received an ovation like that accorded the incomparable Al- ma from a representative New York au- dience. The following week she fol- lowed this triumph with another of equal proportions in Symphony hall, Boston, and is now enroute to Chicago for her gala appearance at the Auditorium thea- ter next Sunday afternoon. Applications for seats are coming to the Auditorium from cities many miles out of Chicago, indicating the wide- spread appeal of the 'sweetest singer in the world." No telephone reserva- tions will be accepted for the Gluck en- gagement, the theater anounces, but mail orders, if accompanied by self-address- ed envelope, will be promptly returned.

It is driven daily over roads that heretofore were considered too rough and too heavy for anything except the sturdiest open cars. As a matter of fact, the Type-B Sedan is as sturdy as an open car, and was built by Dodge Brothers for the same identical kind of service. i Broken lots and sizes of our finest qual- a) } ity imported 34 wool hose, in sizes 7, 71%, 8 only.
