gree - November 3, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 17 Sale Will Benefit Mary Crane Nursery School, Hull House With a department devoted to real antiques and other articles classified as white elephants, the Mary Crane Nursery School auxiliary will open a shop at 1615 Benson avenue, Evanston, (just opposite the Davis Street "L" station) Tuesday, November 20, for a two days' sale. For many weeks the auxiliary has held a Monday workshop at the home of the president, Mrs. George M. Groves, 415 Davis street, Evanston, and has fashioned attractive and use- ful household articles to please the most discriminating of purchasers. One unique feature of this sale will be the department for dolls' wearing apparel. Young mothers of dolls will be able to outfit their entire family from lingerie to cloaks and hats. Another department will supply the housewife with delicacies for her Thanksgiving dinner--plum puddings, fruit cakes, homemade candies, and other good things. Mrs. Groves and her committee are making an urgent appeal to all who are interested in the Mary Crane Nur- sery school at Hull House to contrib- ute articles and other help for this sale. They are saying to friends, "Your help as a saleslady, publicity agent, contributor, or purchaser is greatly needed to make this sale a success." The auxilary is just one year old and already has been able to render considerable assistance to the National Kindergarten and Elementary college in conducting the Mary Crane Nursery school at Hull House. Tells of Hospital for Care of Foot Defects |} Dr. W. A. Dunning, 1137 Central avenue, Wilmette, attended the ses- sions of the Illinois Association of Chiropodists at the Congress hotel early this week. Announcement was made at the convention concerning the proposed $380,000 hospital to be established in Chicago for the treatment of diseases of the foot. This hospital, the first of its type in the world, will have free clinics and free dispensaries as a spe- cial feature. The staff will be comprised only of graduate practicing chiropo- dists in the state, together with con- sulting physicians and dentists. Dr. Arnold Kegel, Chicago commis- sioner of health, has requested the chiropodists of the city and suburbs to appoint a committee to confer with school, municipal and health authori- ties concerning the periodic examina- tion of all school children to deter- mine foot defects. Recent examinations of this charac- ter among Chicago school children re- vealed the fact that of 160,000 children examined, 67,000 were found to be suffering with foot defects which needed attention.
