KUPPEN- HEIMER, VICTOR ELTING, SANBORN HALE, NOBLE HALE. DIRECTORS. Dated WV unetka, Illinois, November Christmas Caroling to Be on Bigger Scale Than Ever Christmas carols will be sung throughout the north shore at the coming Yule season and on a bigger scale than ever before, Harry Edward Freund, director of the music re- search bureau, announces. The enter- prise is strictly non-sectarian. An effort to get the tidings to everybody in plenty of time to make their ar- rangements is being made. A new book of carols of which the cost of publication has been assumed by A. G. Gulbransen, president of the Gulbransen piano company, is being offered free of charge for any group or community asking for them by communicating with Mr. Freund, 165 East Ontario street, Chicago. This year they expect to distribute an edi- tion of 2,000,000 copies of the carols. GOTHAM ORGANIST TO GIVE VESPER CONCERT Chandler Goldthwaite to Be at Baptist Church Sunday; Pease Is Soloist All along the north shore the inquiry is growing common, "When is the next Vesper concert at the Wilmette Bap- tist church?" The third season opened with the October recital in which Wil- liam H. Barnes appeared at the organ and Mrs. Ores Zehr was the soloist. The second concert of this, the third season, will be given Sunday afternoon, November 28, at 4 o'clock. For this concert Mr. Barnes is bringing one of the great organists of the country, Chandler Goldthwaite of New York. Mr. Goldthwaite is but 28 years old. He is characterized a natural musician who, although entirely self-taught, was found to have developed at the age of 16 a remarkable piano technique which furnished the foundation of his great success as an organist in later years Before he was 23 years old he had been chosen city organist in St. Paul, Minn, one of the most prominent positions to be held by any organist in this coun- try. Playing Creates Sensation Mr. Goldthwaite's popularity is al- most unparalleled in the history of the American organ, it is said. Repeated- ly, in St. Paul, the crowds were so great that special police were called upon to handle the situation. The same situation - has developed elsewhere when his name is advertised. Mr. Goldwaite has made records for five different organ companies which is ac- ceded to be itself a record. He has been heard on the air from many sta- tions. Recently a recital played by him in New York was broadcast to Austra- lia and New Zealand. The Perform- ance was at 4 a. m. and was received perfectly 13,000 miles away. The sta- tion in New York was in direct radio communication with Sydney, Australia, and within fifteen minutes of the con- clusion of the program, had a wireless message that the affair was a com- plete success, the entire recital being distinctly heard in that city. The soloist on Sunday wil] be Rollin Pease of Evanston. Mr. Pease is probably the best known singer on the north shore. For years he took the title role in the presentation of Men- delssohn's Elijah at the First Congre- gational church of Evanston. He is unsurpassed in these parts as an in- terpreter of this great Oratorio. His numbers on Sunday afternoon will in- clude selections from "Elijah." The Program Chandler Goldthwaite, Organist Rollin Pease, baritone HEAR GRAND MASTER North Shore Lodges of Odd Fellows Addressed by Dr. A. G. Naumann; Elect Officers December 2 By A. H. H. The North Shore Fraternal Circuit of the Independent Order of Odd Fel- lows held its November meeting at A. T. Sherman Lodge No. 892, in the I. O. O. F. hall, Wilmette, Thursday evening of last week. The grand master, Dr. A. G. Nau- man of Chicago, was present and delivered an address that was listened to attentively by a large number of Odd Fellows from all the lodges along the north shore. After highly com- mending the officers of the local lodge for their efficiency and praising the laudable work of its members in their relief of the distressed, the grand ma.- ter explained a number of plans he intends to carry out for the good of the order. He tQld about some of the legislation recently passed by the grand lodge at its session last month and gave a favorable account of con- ditions at the Old Folks home at Mattoon and the Orphans home at Lincoln. There were several other speeches made by members, and their remarks were enthusiastically applaud- ed. After the meeting was adjourned roast beef sandwiches and coffee were served. In spite of the inclemency of the weather, the lodge hall was filled to its capacity. The Brothers and Friends banquet, which was to be held December 4, has been postponed until some time in January. At the next meeting, December 2, there will be election of officers. Branch Rickey to Talk to Group at Kenilworth Hall Branch Rickey, vice-president of the St. Louis Cardinals, world's champion baseball team, will speak before a Mother and Daughter, Father and Son meeting which will be held at the Kenilworth Community Center Sun- day afternoon, November 28, at 4:30 o'clock. Mr. Rickey is best known in connection with major league baseball, but he is also greatly in demand as a speaker and has previously spoken on the north shore at the Wilmette Sun- day Evening club. His talk on some phase of athletics pertaining to com- munity life promises to be exceedingly interesting and an attendance of more than 600 villagers is anticipated. The meeting is open to those bringing a son or daughter, either of their own or "borrowed" for the occasion. Various Fantasie diologue ............

What Director Stagg has to say about coaching a football team will be worth hearing. Miss Anna Ny- berg, violinist, will play. Since 1892 Coach Stagg has been connected with the University of Chi- cago. Until 1900 he held the position of associate professor and director in the department of physical education, and since that time he has been direc- tor and professor.
