MEN'S CLUB SUMMONS TO FIRST AUTUMN MEETING The first meeting of the season of the Winnetka Men's club will be held Thursday evening, October 30, in Com- munity House, when William C. Boyden and Stephen A. Foster, attorneys, re- cently returned from a tour of Europe, will be the speakers. Mr. Boyden and Mr. Foster both went to Europe ostensibly to attend the sessions of the Bar association in Lon- don, but took advantage of an oppor- tunity to travel extensively throughout the continent. They are keen observers and their common subject, "Some Re- cent Impressions of Europe," promises to start off the Men's club season's speaking program in a most auspicious manner. "We want all of the old members in point of affiliation to attend and to bring their neighbors," writes a promi- nent member of the 'club. "The club is entirely non-sectarian and its only pur- pose is to bring the men of the village together and to promote the well-known Winnetka spirit." "We have good dinners, good speak- ers, and you will have a chance to meet your neighbors," he continues. If you happen to be a new-comer in the village and do not receive a card, please con- sider this notice as your invitation. Phone John W. Lasier, secretary, at Winnetka 250, and he will be delighted to reserve a place for you." Dinner will be served promptly at 7 o'clock, it is announced.

Elm Street May Get New North Shore Line Depot The Chicago North Shore and Mil- waukee railroad company has submitted to the Village council plans for the pro-- posed improvement of facilities at the Elm street station. The plans indicate that the present frame structure which is now used as a ticket office and waiting room, will be removed and replaced by a brick structure. All up-to-date conveniences for the patrons would be provided, it is explained. This station will also pro- vide for the shifting of express de- livery service from the North avenue station to Elm street. The company's proposal also calls for the lengthening of the station plat- form so that trains will not block the street crossing. The public utilities committee of the council was authorized at this week's meeting to consider the plans ef the railroad company. IT TAKES TOO MANY MISTAKES TO GIVE SOME MEN EXPERIENCE! I believe I could cut meat myself as well as some of these butchers. They don't seem to be able to gauge weight nor the size of the piece you want. Phone Winnetka 920-21-22 The cutting of meat is a profession just like any other, Happy, and just be- cause a man is a butcher doesn't mean that he knows how to cut meat properly. The butchers over at PETERS MARKET are experts and cut meat so that you get the most for your money and the meat cooks and tastes better. #43 PETERS MARKET Vote in ballot box the small ballot Specimen.
