The Neighbors Will Give Two January Programs HE art and literature = depart- ment of the Neighbors will meet at the home of Mrs. Charles Howe, 240 Kenilworth avenue, Thurs- day morning, January 15, at 10:15 o'clock. The program will be "Farly Etchings -- through the Eighteenth Century." The first lecture given will be on "Rembrandt and His School." by Mrs. William A. Colledge; second. "Seventeenth Century Landscapes and Eighteenth Century Italian." Miss Barbara Erwin; third, "Mezzotint, Stipole, Aquatint," Mrs. Robert M. Beckler. Those who have followed this in- teresting course of study have been most enthusiastic over it. A tremend- ous amount of labor and unlimited time is spent to prepare these papers, and it is to be hoped that any mem- bers of the Neighbors who are able to attend these meetings will make the effort to be there. There is in- spiration in a good sized audience both to the speaker and to the chair- man of the department. The next regular meeting of the club will be on January 22, at 2:30 o'clock. There will be a lecture by Dr. Abram Mendenhall on "Quality in English Bone China." Dr. Men- denhall is an authority on this sub- ject and comes from Spaulding and company of Chicago. Those who have heard this lecture say that it is the best they have heard along this line. Dr. Mendenhall delves into all branch- es of his subject and is one of the few real authorities on China in this country. To quote one of his hearers, "He gives a fascinating talk." K. OF C.

The idea, it is stated, originated with Miss Helen Ben- nett, well known along the north shore for her clever talks and for her activity in civic and political enterprises. Miss Bennett will be general director of the undertaking. She will be aided by many prominent women of Chicago and its vicinity who are actively interested in various lines of women's activities. In fact, basic plans have already been formulated for this "Woman's World Fair" which will display to the public the progress women have made in all fields of art and business. The board organizing the exposition and running it includes in its member- ship Mrs. Joseph T. Bowen, Mrs. Rocke- feller McCormick, Mrs. George Deare, Mrs. Joseph G. Coleman, Mrs. J. Harry Arthur Farwell, Mrs. Frederick A. Brown, Mrs Silas Strawn, Mrs. Medill McCormick, Mrs. John A. Carpenter, Mrs. Howard Linn and Miss Anne For- sythe. The exhibition opens on the anniver- sary of Paul Revere's ride and will be observed by a cowgirl who will ride horseback from the Twelfth Street sta- tion to the exposition building. Women Discuss Accident Prevention at Meeting CCORDING to a recent report of a platform outlined on Fri- day of last week at the Chicago Woman's club, the entire membership of the Illinois Federation Women's clubs will be devoted to prevention of automobile accidents. Three hun- dred clubs were represented at this meeting where the 13 provisions in the platform were discussed. Stress is placed on the proposal that no one be permitted to drive without a license for which an examination must be passed. It is also urged, that while intoxicated or failing to report name and address after a serious ac- cident be compelled to forfeit their license. Automobile Real Luxury In Japan; License $300 In Japan, an automobile is a real lux- ury. A license on a car of the cheapest type costs about $300, while gasoline, with tax added, means an expense of $1 a gallon. In addition, virtually all cars come from America, and the motorist must pay import duty of 45 per cent.
