Added to this Is the convenience of interurban traffic over the" Chicago A Milwaukee Electric line, which now brings passengers right into the loop through connection with the North- western ML" at Evanston. the beat evidence of the healthi- ness of this community Is reflected in the ruddy-cheeked children of par- ents who had the foresight to locate on the North Shore and rear their [ families amid Nature's surroundings, far from the smoke and dust of the great city.

"~""' -" Ik'fkeen"" Woman."" â-  Mto» Haley is perhaps one ot the keenest, wittiest Women who talks today on the question of woman's suffrage. She has been rarely worsted In a controversy and always has a broad I and thorough knowledge of her sub- ject. The members feel it is quite a privilege to have Miss Haley with them, as she is a very busy woman, and bespeak for her a most cordial reception. Many guests are being lnylted to hear her by various members of the *^jff; M& .01 _ no d previous meetings: OUILNIETTE CLUB DINNER WELL The cabaret dinner, which was held at the Ouilmette Country club on Saturday evening, was attended by 240 members and guests. There were thirty tables, each table, seating eight people. The tables were decorated with fail flowers and were very at- tractive.
