WILMETTE LIFE, FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 19l4 St.·· Catherine"'s Club· Binefit To Be A Lat;ge Social.Affair HE Gymnasium of Loyola university, Sheridan road at Loyola avenue, made ialtl()US as the scene of the late "Pageant of .. Youth" ' and the center for many athletic events of note ~1~ open its doors on April 26, th~ ~turday afternoon following Easter fl>r a benefit card patty. ' . The beneficiary of the occasion will be St. Catherine's club, a home for dependent girls, at 901 Addison street Chicago, founded a few years ago by' Mrs. J:ames R Bremner. This club, begun m a small way, has developed into a 119te-worthy enterprise, ·enlisting the services of a large group of women on its bOard and engaging the sympathetic interest of all who know something of its work. :'- "The title 'Club' was chosen rather than some name designating the home as · an institution," it is explained "since the idea back of its founding was' to provide d real home, in its truest sense for girls who are in no way delinquent,' but, made depen~ent and thrown upon the o rld by Circumstances beyond their w_ control. The club shelters girls from eight to eighteen. It is a work of love which by its very nature must make ~ sttong appeal to women. "Up to the present time, the work has gone on very quietly, under the leadership of its modest, untiring, big visioned founder and a few earnest co-workers. "It is hoped that the card party given i~ the ~pacious quar$ers of the Loyola GymnasiUm may serve to acquaint a very large{ ·circle with this beautiful 1\'ork, for knowing of it, they are sure to give it their eager support. "Worthwhile prizes are to be awarded; one to each four people. All of the popular, card games will be played, as well as Bunco' and there will be a door prize. "It is suggested that all the old new and prospective friends of St. 'catherine's club immediately note the date in the1r engagement books, Saturday, April 26, the hour, 2 o'clock. "Mrs. James McAlear, 448 Surf street, Chicago, will be the chairman of the 1:<;'mn11ttee in. c_harge _of the card party, w1th Mr~ WJiham Kmsella as co-chairman, and plans are afoot to make it a memorable affair. --o-- T ·Mrs. llerti'~rt -A.· Morin of 635 Maple ..avenue, Wilmette, was elected chauiltan of the Literar¥ Round Table of the Chicago Culture club at the annua~me'eiing which was held on Monda~ '.at . the La Salle 'hotel.

The north shore's first season o£ Chamber music closed on Sunday afternoon, April 6, with a delightful program charmingly rendered by ; a trio of artists, two of whom have been heard twice before. The renditions of Madame Ella Spravka, a gifted pianist, and Richard Czerwonky, violinist, have been a joy to those who were present at the former concerts. In additioq to the instrumen(;ll music, Boza · Oumirofl 'c harmed iis" audience with his personality, and wiUl his beautiful voice, sympathetic and responsive. A group of Slavonic songs showe!l t~ a~v~nt,ilge the ran~ and variations of his tones. The choice of selections carried an appeal to those who had gathered togeteher to hear the best of music produced beautifully by artists of discrimination. ~ The Chamber Music society has made plans for a second season which will include four concerts given by these same artists and by additional ones. The membership will be limited, so that it is advisable for tho:se wishing to avail themselves of the opportunity to hear beautiful music produced in an atmosphere of informality ·to send in applications early. The following program is indicative of the type of music this socie.!Y wishes to present to north shore mustc loveres.
