B THE LAKE SHORE NEWS. FRIDAY, JULY 27, 1923 i^iWHifiiipiwh'CT'iriiii; Wilmette Homes You won't know what's going on in Wilmette unless you read The Lake Shore News. During the coming weeks the Lake Shore News, with the kind assistance of T. Slater Gillette, will publish a series of photographs of beautiful homes in Wilmette. Wilmette is noted jfor its beauty, and it is peculiarly appropriate that this quality be pointed out at this time of the year when nature puts the finishing touches on to scenes already pleasing. R. J. Mulvey is a real estate dealer on the South side of Chicago. Twelve years ago he and Mrs. Mulvey lived there. That was before they became wedded to the north shore, where, they felt, they could better educate their children. When Mr. Mulvey built the above house, at 800 Oakwood avenue, it was like moving into the wilderness. That was in 1911 before Laurel avenue had been opened up and when there were very few houses Tn^the vicinity to those days the Mulvey's could pick violets in the woods right in front of tneir home. •J?e- h°uSe at 5°& Oakwood is in itself pleasing. Its wide eaves, comfort- able porches and shady trees suggest rest and peacefulness. This atmos- «,♦ W Jlre2fttened -by ^ a!mndance <>* shrubs, now fully grown but set *~«y Mf- M.nhreJ since the house was built. It is but one of the many pretty places in the vicinity of Eighth and Oakwood.

In explaining the situation that led to the organization of the Kenilworth Fealty association the tract says, there seemed to be a necessity for desirable zoning owing to certain changes in titles in the recently an- ne*ed.
