WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1924 19 OFFER AWARDS IN SEAL SALES Wilmette Women Offer In- ducements to Sales by Local School Children CUP IS FIRST PRIZE Women Make Canvass of Homes and Stores Sales of Christmas Seals for the Chi- cago Tuberculosis Institute by school children will be stimulated this year by a number of prizes which have been donated by Wilmette women. The grand prize, which is to go to the school sell- ing the largest number of seals per capita, is a silver cup, which will be on display in the show windows of the Ren- neckar Drug company on Central avenue. Among other prizes to be given out are several sets of posters, in bright colors, which will be given to every class selling $25 worth of seals, an interest ing book on health to every child who disposes of more than $5 worth and a banner or volley ball to every school selling over $50 worth of the seals. The cup was donated by the follow- ing women: Mrs. W. F. Seng, Mrs. John Clark Baker, Mrs. John A. Hoff- mann, Mrs. Carl Widney, Mrs. Ed- ward Dolan, Mrs. Donald Maxwell, Mrs. I. M. Cozzens, Mrs. Charles Englethardt, Mrs. E. J. Hoffman, Mrs. F. L. Kaye, Mrs. Morton I. Patter- son, Mrs. Hope Thompson and Mrs. A. W. Boylston. The engraving was done through the courtesy of TK. Dunne, 1322 Central avenue, Wilmette. It is reported that Kenilworth school children already have sold $400 worth of seals as against $100 worth last year. Early returns of money indicate that all of the seals will be sold. Institute Makes Awards The awards will be made by the Chi- cago Tuberculosis Institute, sometime after the first of the year. Mrs. Charles Engelhardt, in charge of the Wilmette, Kenilworth and Winnetka district sales, reports that the offer of prizes has awakened vast enthusiasm in the schools and that the sale of seals is very en- couraging so far. That the school children are not the only ones pushing the Christmas seal sales can be vouched for by north shore business men. The women of the dif- ferent suburbs are uniting in a drive to sell more than have ever been sold be- fore. They are making a canvass of places of business and private homes with the purpose of leaving no stone unturned, that all may have a chance to contribute to one of the most worthy causes that ever solicited help. Over 13,500,000 seals were sold in Chicago and Cook county last year. With the proceeds from those sales, 3,108 chest clinic examinations were made by the tuberculosis specialists of the institute. School nurses inspected 23,393 children in the year; 40,000 home visits were made by traveling nurses and doctors; more than 14,000 examina- tions were conducted at the infant wel- fare and dental clinics. This year there are 40,000,000 seals on hand to be sold --almost three times the number of 1923. They must be sold to enable the in- stitute to keep up the good work. Have you bought your share? William N. McClintock Dies at Kenilworth Home William N. McClintock died at the home of William D. Shepherd, 341 Melrose avenue, Kenilworth, at 3 o'clock Thursday morning, December 4. He had been ill for about three weeks and the cause of death was complications resulting from a serious attack of typhoid fever.

Naumann of St. Paul's Lutheran church, Evanston, of which Mr. Mec- Clintock was a member, will officiate, Burial will be in the family plot at Oakwood.

He graduated from New Trier High School in 1921. He is survived by no near relatives. He was engaged to marry Miss Isa- belle Pope, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry A. Pope, 910 Lake avenue, Wil- mette. He had lived for the last 17 vears with the Shepherds in Kenil- worth; 1,000 YEARS HENCE Customer--I want an antique au- Antique Dealer--Madam, these are all the very latest things in an- ciques. A lot of commuters came near miss- ing the 8:27 last Saturday morning because they became so interested in watching Donald, the small son of Mrs. 'B. Leader, operating his mother's little moving picture camera on Elm street. A couple of dogs were obligingly staging a good natured fight and a half dozen of his play- mates were trying to help with advice in the taking of the pictures. Donald says he don't need advice, however. All he has to do is to raise the little camera to his eyes and press the Lut- ton. In another 10 or 15 years he says Griffith will have nothing on him. --Adv. Little girls adore these Lloyd Doll Carriages And no wonder!

"Automobile manufacturers who for years have seen the increased produc- tion of cars confound the prohecies of saturation of the automobile mar- ket should begin to realize that a new element has entered the field and that is behooves them to prepare for it. Heretofore the prohets of production saturation have based their prohecies on the supposed inability of the pub- lic to find any more money for auto- mobiles." "But the money continues to be found and it will continue to be found probably for a long time if the pros- pective owners can find any place to run their automobiles in comfort and with pleasure. "No one sees the congestion in our city streets and on our county high- ways without realizing that the sat- uration point of automobile produc- tion is not going to be measured by the purchasing power of the people but by the capacity of our highways. Unless more and better highways are built and more and wider streets are opened the use of the automobile will become a diminishing utility or pleas- ure. "The lesson to the automobile manu- facturer should be plain. Hitherto he DR. C. E. GEISSE OSTEOPATHIC PHYSICIAN Electro-Therapy Village Theatre Building Phone Wilmette 2052 has fought every effort to make the automobile pay for any road or street construction. "Maintenance he was willing to sup- port because obviously the car wore out the road, but construction he held was the duty of the whole public and not that part of the public that operated motors. As a theory that may still be reasonable; but if the automobile manufacturer reads the signs aright he will see that practically he had better do all he can to help get new roads and streets, because sooner or later--and very soon near our crowded centers--the demand for automobiles is going to be seriously diminished by the simple fact that there will be no place to run them. In the United States there are 5974 electric light and power companies, 53,100 separate telephone systems and 827 electric railway companies.
