She had been long ocâ€" cupied: in very constructive philanâ€" thropic work. She will be always reâ€" membered by the recipients of her generous expressions of love, and kindness. Her active and busy life is a great example to all who knew her and held her in, esteem. Mrs. Louer had the rare faculty of doing great â€" good most unostentatiously.

A. R. Reviewing comâ€"| mittee in Hollywood, Calif. | "Maybe It‘s Love" if you are a Joe Brown "fan" you will doubtless like) this film full of his facial and vocal antics. â€" The Allâ€"American football | p‘ayers will be of interest to many| and while the picture has no very out-i standing value, its crudeness may be | called its greatest fault. Not the best| for children. ‘ "Three French Girls" a young Engâ€" lishman comes to the reseue of three | French girls who are about to be: ousted by an angry landlord. _ Cliff | Edwards is good. Fifi D‘Orsay and. Reginald are in the cast. It is rather| coarse and not highly recommended.. "Laughter" King Cophetua and the Beggar Maid, or a misâ€"mated marâ€" riage is the theme of this entertaining: comedy drama which features Nancy Carroll. A little Follies girl longing: for luxuries, marries a millionaire: whom she does not love. Soon a forâ€" mer sweetheart returns and persuades her that there is no happines without laughter. Complications develop. The theme provokes interest especially as there is clever satire. / It is good but light entertainment for the mature. "Seotland Yard" skilfull direction, artistic photography of objects in the fow, and very good acting of dual roles by Edmund Lowe make this an "interesting picture. _ Joan Bennett ~also does very good work. â€" Youths i may appreciate this picture but it is a bit beyond children. The Junior matinee will present anâ€" other instalment of "The Indians Are C« mwing." > Byrant Buckingham of Dell lane, Ravina, who is a student at Harvard university will not be at home during his Christmas vacation, but will spend the holidays visiting with relatives and friends in New Jersey and New York City. Mr. and Mrs. William. Pearl of S. Sheridan road are entertaining at dinner on Christmas day. â€" Covers will be laid for twenty guests. Seventeen board members of the Highland Park League of Women Voters attended the board meeting at the home of Mrs. Constant Hopkins on Wednesday. This proved unusually interesting, as Mrs. Raymond Simâ€" ons gave a report of the state conâ€" vention recently held at Urbana, and Mrs. Clarence Balke discussed the World Court which may soon, in its revised form, come up for vote in Congress. LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS MEETING Interesting Session of Board Held; Hear State Convenâ€" . tion Reports Receive Two Awards Mrs. Hopkins announced that two awards had been received by the Highland Park league at the convenâ€" tion. Both were first prizes;â€"one for the largest sum sent into the state league over and above the local quota, and the other for the greatest amount of publicity on women on juries, Several members of the Highland Park league assisted in checking the vote at the recent Sanitary District election, and the league board. gave due notice of the election to all its members several days in advance. "Illinois is falling behind the proâ€" cession in regard to its election sysâ€" tem," says Professor Harold F. Gosâ€" nell, of the University of Chicago, speaking over WGN for the League of Women Voters. System Expensive "The present Illinois election sysâ€" tem is expensive, inconvenient to the voter and it does not have adequate safeguards against fraud, Great proâ€" gress has been made by a number of states in recent years in perfecting ¢lection codes. _‘ ‘"Progress can be made along the following lines: Registration for cities (Continued on page 12) North Shore Cleaners Decide to Organize to End Price Cutting War Representatives of _ North Shore Cleaning and Dying establishments, who met last Friday: in Highland Park, agreed to end the: price war now said to be effecting their business disastrously and engage an arbitraâ€" tor. ~Dr. F.
