January 30, 1926 WINNETKA TALK OPEN VASSAR HOUSE North Shore Alumnae of Vassar Col- lege Aid in Furthering Tea Shop Project in Chicago On Friday of this week the much- talked-of "Vassar House" finally opened. It is located on Erie street, Chicago, just east of Michigan avenue and will serve luncheon, tea and din- ner, with special attention to north shore patrons dining before the thea- tre. Vassar House is the result of fre- quent demands that colleges made upon their alumni for the scholarship funds and endowments. A group of Vassar alumnae in Chicago and on the north shore, wearied of asking friends to buy tickets for benefits, decided to go into business instead, and, in looking about for a suitable business, decided that one of the needs of the city which they would be able to supply was a reall: chic and yet reasonable restaurant. Madame X has already stated that Vassar House promised to be the most chic place to eat on the north side, and guests who have been there and in- spected the gay-painted peasant groups done in relief on the plaster walls, the old fire-place and lovely arches, have not been disappointed. It's decorations are undoubtedly new, charming, indi- vidual. The .food is not elaborate, but the kind that melts in the mouth, and the prices are within the reach of the everyday purse. The proceeds will go first to the Vas- sar scholarship fund and then to any other educational funds in connection with Vassar college. The alumnae are counting on the interest of their friends in the cause--especially those friends who are thus from ticket buying--to bring many patrons there for a first visit. After that they are not worried. The charm of the place, in a city with such a derth of quaint eating places, and the deliciousness of the food will, they feel sure, make steady patrons of all those who are tempted there once. The bright colored aprons of the waitresses and the hundreds of napkins necessary for the enterprise have been spread on the tables of many Win- Lilac TeaRoom HOURS OF SERVICE Delicious Luncheon 11:30 to 2 Afternoon Tea Our afternoon tea is a plea- sant social occasion, providing needed refreshments. 3:00 to 5 Dinner A Delightful Meal of Home Cooked Foods 5:30 to 8 576 Lincoln Ave. Tel Winnetka 1820 netka homes during the last three weeks, where the interested alumnae | have been sewing these items.
