THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1918 5 ocidJ^HapperuKrir i on wiAe . r 1 U' NoftkSKore by Rutk Ridley >LANS for an informal dancing i The dancing parties held on Tues- * party, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to charity, are now in full sway, under the direction of the Young Ladies' Auxiliary of the Wil- mette Woman's Club. The affair is to be given on Thursday evening, February 21 at the club house and tickets may be procured from any of the members or at Renneckar's Drug store. Mrs. Roy Bowers, is chair- man of the auxiliary this year, and Miss Margaret Renneckar, president. —*— What am I doing for my country? Surely everyone of us has asked that same question of our very own selves, for it is the most important question nowadays. It .is really sur- prising what recent happenings have done to turn the thoughts of society folk from gay, sparkling and frivol- ous things into more serious chan- nels. Formal dinners, and parties, except at a few of the clubs, have prac- tically been done away with, and while there are many small entertainments, of course, they are merely incidental to the real work of the day. "AH work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," and how exceedingly well we all know the truth in that statement. How best to serve and conserve, that's our motto. And the woman who can think of the most original method of raising funds for patriotic needs is just now the most popular. —*— St. Monica's Guild of St. Au- gustine's Church has solved the ques- tion of "Fuelless Day," and its heat restrictions, by giving a cafeteria din- ner next Monday evening, January 28, between the hours of 6 and 7:30 in the basement of the Parish House. As it is quite necessary that the base- ment be heated sufficiently to pre- vent the freezing of the pipes, with the aid of the gas stove, which is quite necessary for the cooking, the ladies have come to the conclusion that Monday evening would be an excellent time at which to offer some sort of amusement and diversion. The proceeds will be devoted to the Silver Jubilee Fund, and Mrs. Wil- liard Doud, chairman of the Guild, promises a most delicious menu for the occasion. _~4,__ Skating seems to be all the rage this year, for every day, one sees great numbers of folks going back and forth with their skates thrown •over their shoulder, to and from the various skating ponds.
