Mi PASTOR LIKENS BAKER TO GOOD SAMARITAN (Continued from page 1) window's beauty and message is en- joyed, at the most, by a few hundred, and then only occasionally, while in the other it ii enjoyed by many thou- sands, and on every day in the pass- ing years. Picture* Good Samaritan "The story of the Good Samaritan was chosen because it pictures so well the life lived by the man in whose honor we are met today and whose memory we revere. Frank J. Maker was a man who tried dimply and earn- estly to live a lite going about doing good. In his charities and benefac- tions he tried to make happy those le<s fortunate than himself. When a tale of sadness was brought to his attention he did not, like the priest in yonder panel, pass by on the other side'. When he found man or woman, boy or girl wounded by the wayside, cursed by the world's cruelties and its miserable inequalities, he did what he could to bring some brightness and happiness into their lives. As was the Good Samaritan in yonder picture, he was touched by misfortune and unhappini ss, he had real pity and consideration for those who had been robbed of ordinary human rights and fallen among the thieves of our mod- ern civilization so ofttn, alas; 10 cruel and so unfair in its treatment of the unfortunate and unprivileged. "-- -- He left directions whereby the work of St. Augustine's would be aided and enlarged after his death. The directions are being followed faithfully by those he left behind. wiL'Mfifffe LffE-Wpfn'A'V. 'KWisritaA 8 o'clock, in the club house of St. Au- gustine's Episcopal church. A number of talks will be given on that occasion by officers who are now (at Camp Custer on conditions at camp. Maj. H. M. Nelly of the Regular army will tell of the "Reasons for C. M. T. C. Camps." It is particularly urged that parents of the prospective campers be present at Tuesday's meeting so that they may learn at first hand of the procedure in camp and know just what is in prospect for their sons. A committee of women under the di- rection of Mrs. W. C. Boyden will serve light refreshments. Wilmette's delegation of C. M T. C. lx>ys has been recruited by Col. W. C. Hoyden, chairman for the village, and who is responsible for calling Tuesday's "get-together.' HOLD "GET-TOGETHER" FOR C. M. T. C. YOUTHS Seventeen Wilmette boys who leave on August 1 for the Citizens Military Training camp at Camp Custer will be the guests with their parents at a "get- together" evening, Tuesday, July 29, at The newest scientific wonder, The Phonofilm, is being shown at Mc- Vickers theatre this week. This mar- velous invention of Dr. Lee DeForest represents the first successful synco- nization of motion pictures and sounds. The remarkable results are accomplished in an exceedingly sim- ple manner. Deforest, after years of experimenting and research has per- fected a machine which not only- photographs the subject but the sounds it makes. For instance, while one part of the magic apparatus is making a photographic likeness of a speaker, another part is making a picture of the sound waves, and on the same negative. When projected, the light waves pass through the sound pictures as well as the subject matter, and with radio equipment are transmitted through an amplifier to the audience. The results are un- canny to say the least and create a novel sensation It is interesting to know that Dr. De Forest did most of bis research and laboratory work right here in Chi- cago. His invention, the Audion, is well known to all radio enthusiasts. Von Suppc's great overture, "Light Cavalry," will be presented at Mc- Vicker's theatre by the symphony or- chestra the week of July 28. Specials Russian Caviar on Toast--75c.
