r6 THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1920 * Activities & JSJortk Shore Chibs by RutK TUsley^K THOSE who care to take a trip to the Tennessee mountains to study the unique people of that region should hear Mrs. Ethel De Long Zande tell of her experiences at the Pine Mountain school. Mrs. Zande will speak-at the Winnetka Woman's club on Monday afternoon, February 9, at 2 o'clock. On a previous trip here, it will be remembered that Mrs. Zande gave examples of local folk songs, accompanying herself on the dulcimer, made by one of the men in that region. The meeting is not for club members alone. Everyone is welcome. After graduating from Smith college, Mrs. Zande became interested in the IJindman settlement school in Knott county, Ken- tucky, and taught there for some time. In 1911 at the request of "Uncle William" Creech, an old mountaineer from Pine Mountain, she in- vestigated the community in that remote corner of Harlan county, with the result that she and an associate from the Ilindman school started a similar institution there. Mr. Creech gave 136 acres of land, all that he had, to found this school and with subsequent gifts the school now owns almost 400 acres of farm and timber lands, with buildings and equipment. More than ninety children are being taught there reading and .writing, practical farming, cooking, sewing and handcrafts of all sorts. At present the directors are just completing the $50,000 fund necessary to build a road to the nearest railroad to save the two-* day trip over almost impassable roads heretofore necessary. week of the run in Chicago during the automobile show there and all this week it will be on the. north shore. When the car was. turned over to the Evanston Motor Company at midnight Saturday the speedometer showed that it had run 6,050 miles since the test began. The car is equipped with a glass hood so that the working of the en- gine may be seen at all times. The Evanston Motor Car company, through Nazareth Barsumian, has tendered an invitation to the north shore public to make use of the white Essex, to hail it at any time and get a ride to any destination along the north shore. A newspaper dispatch says that Berlin is spending its money madly. So are we, and the more we have to spend to meet the high cost of liv- ing the madder we get.â€"Long Island Star.

Reservations must be sent to Mrs. Edw, Anderson, 1132 Elmwood avenue, not later than Monday. Dr. George Francis James, educational secretary of the Military Training Camp Assocation will be the speaker of the day. Dr. James was the director of the educational work of our boys during their training in the camps, and following the signing of the armistice he continued the same sort of work in France. He will speak of the Bills now pending be- fore Congress regarding Military Training.

The Women's Christian Temper- ance Union has been invited to meet with the Glencoe Missionary society at the home of Mrs. William S. Hamrn, 270 Scott avenue, Hubbard Woods, on Tuesday afternoon, Feb- ruary 17 at two-thirty o'clock. The "Barnswallow" Waffle shop is announcing a new schedule of hours, from noon until five-thirty o'clock in the afternoon, instead of from ten o'clock in the morning on, because of the ever increasing luncheon trade which demands the entire services of the cook during the forenoon for preparation. North shore women are taking an active interest in the Barn- swallow, and many delightful lunch- eon and tea parties are being given there weekly. The regular monthly meeting of the North Shore Catholic Women's League, will be held at the Winnetka Woman's club on Thursday afternoon, February 12.
