TE A EE [PER ST 8 a WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1920 COLLECT $5,886,771 IN AUTOMOBILE FEES Amount Collected in Illinois Five as Much as Received in 1916, Says Secretary Emmerson Nearly six million dollars has been collected in automobile license fees this year by Secretary of State Louis IL. Emmerson. The total to date is $5,886,771.82. In the collection of these fees Illi- nois has made a record for economy. The cost has been only 5.3 per cent of the amount collected. The aver- age cost in other states is 10 per according to reports made at the re- cent national meeting of Secretaries of state. The amount collected in automo- bile fees this year is five times as much as was collected in 1916 the year previous to the beginning of the present administration. The in- crease will aid materially in paying for the construction of the hard roads system of the state. - The growth of automobile fees since 1911, the first year fees were collected, has been phenomenal. The total for that year was $105,.344, collected from 38269 automobile owners. Since that time the amount of fees and the number of automobiles has been as follows: Year. Fees.

Thursday evening, January 6, prom- ises to be an evening of merriment at Jones' Hall, Wilmette, when the Bulla Bulla club, of Evanston, will give their fifth annual prize masquer- ade dance. The management in charge of the affair has been very for- tunate in securing one of the largest halls on the north shore, and Jones' hall has been recently remodeled and redecorated. 'As the dance is in Wilmette it is expected that many north shore towns will be represented and many prizes will be donated to the wearers of the most comical and most orig- inal costumes. Last year many car- ried home valuable prizes. The annual affair is very popular with the young people, and for the past five years the Bulla Bulla club has held the largest masquerades ever attempted on the north shore, with success, and this event promises to be a repetition of former years. Everybody is invited to attend, and the music will be furnished by Bulla's Rubber band. Anyone may attend, whether masked or not. MUSIC AND PLAY SCORE HIT IN XMAS PROGRAM New Trier High School Entertains North Shore Residents With Holiday Program. A delightful Christmas entertain- ment was held in the New Trier High school auditorium, Sunday afternoon, at 4 o'clock. The program opened with the cus- tomary community sing, augmented by selections by the High School Glee clubs and orchestra. The com- mnnity singing and the work of the glee clubs and orchestra were par- ticularly well done, due to the pains- taking efforts of Mrs. Cotton, di- rector of music at New Trier High school. The second part of the program was a Miracle Play, given by high school students, under the direction of Miss Stanwood, director of dra- matics. The play scored a decided hit and proved one of the most unique and impressive of the school's dramatic efforts.
