The teams were on even terms un- til the fourth inning when Jack Han- selman, local hurler was taken sick and forced to retire from the game. Mish Knox, his successon, pitched good ball for the remainder of the game. Winnetka scored three runs in the fifth inning but a ninth inning spurt by the hostiles copped the pastime. This week the home boys will enter- tain the Waukegan team at the local pasture. The Triangles now are in third place, and by playing consist- ent ball for the remainder of the season will be able to finish way up in the column. 'There is still plenty of room for more spectators on the sidelines. A large gang of friendly rooters always can improve the quality of the home team's playing. CHURCH AND CLUB LEADER TAKEN BY DEATH TUESDAY Funeral services for Mrs. Paul F. Williams, 487 Ash street, were held Wednesdav afternoon at 2 o'clock from Rosehill chapel. Mrs. Williams met death Monday night or early Tuesday morning in (Lake Michigan. The body was found early Tuesday morning at the foot of Willow street by Mr. Williams and their son, Pierson. Mrs. Williams. who had been suffering from ill health for some time, was thought to have wandered aimlessly to the beach and fallen off the pier. It was thought she was stunned se- verely in the fall. Mrs. Williams was an active wor- ker in Christ church and prom- inently identified with the Woman's Guild of that church. member of the Winnetka clbu and of the McDowell clhb.

AN APPEAL FOR CO-OPERATION Village Manager Woolhiser Asks Winnetkans Help Keep Bath- ing Beaches for Use by Winnetkans bq H. L. Woolhiser (Village Manager) Last year after careful consider- ation of the question, and with the advice and suggestions of citizens from all parts of the village, the Vil- lage Council « adopted certain regu- lations concerning the use of the beaches, the primary purpose of which is to conserve the beaches for [the residents of the village and their guests. Without regulation here, and with restrictions on each side of us, Win- netka would soon be known as an "easy mark" and our beaches, both public and private, would be over- run with outsiders. Moderate re- strictions will preveat this. These regulations are: 1. Bathing or picnicking at street ends is not allowed. 2. Bathing and picnicking on pri- vate property is allowed only on consent of owner. : 3. Dressing or undressing, except in permanent bathhouses, is not al- lowed. In addition to the foregoing, the public is requested not to park cars at street ends, as the presence of cars there attracts outsiders to the beach and greatly adds to the dificulty of proper regulation. These regulations should be, but are not, receiving the cheerful co-op- | eration of all Winnetka residents; therefore this appeal. The public beaches at Lake Front Park and at | Elder lane are open to you at all times. Numerous Sheridan road property owners have repeatedly stated that they will be glad to give {permission for the use of their beach- les to any Winnetka resident upon re- \quest. A brief written permit or tel- iephone notification to the police sta- ition is all that is necessary. If spoken to by a police officer, 'bear in mind his difficult task of dis- {tinguishing you from a non-resident, and, remember, that he is merely en- 'deavoring to do his duty by carrying jout instructions designed ultimately to enhance your pleasure and safetv. Please give your municipal authori- ties a little co-operation. : GLENCOE ATHLETE KILLED BY HIGH VOLTAGE WIRES Henry Sticken, of Glencoe, well known among local base ball enthu- siasts as the star catcher of the Glencoe Athletic club team, was in- stantly killed Tuesday morning June 21, by electrocution when he grasped a high voltage wire while working on a pole in Tessville, west of Evanston. | Sticken was employed as a lineman 'by the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois. An inquest was 'held Wednesday at the Hebblewaite {Undertaking rooms at Evanston. MUSIC RECITAL Miss Marion Lasier presented the | following pupils in recital on Fri- !day, June 17, at her home, 721 Lin- jcoln avenue: Nancy Thomas, Julia Dickinson, Janet Orwig, Ariel Jewel, Roslyn Sincere, Emma Hirsch, Ed- (ward Baumann, Lois Scharf, Morris IHirsch, Janet Scrimgeour, Dorothy | Thomson, Margaret Hubsch, Eliza- ibeth Parker, John Jewell, Margaret |Sterrett, Helen Hubsch, and Marcia iConverse. = I VACATION FROM MOVIES Motion pictures at Community 'House have been discontinued for ithe summer months, but will be re- isumed on Friday, September 16. An excellent program is being arranged for next season, details of which will be announced later. RECEPTION OF MEMBERS Sunday morning there will be the ireception of members and celebra- tion of the Lord's Supper at the Con- gregational church, the date being advanced from July 3 to June 26. BANK EMPLOYEES' PICNIC For the fifth consecutive year, the employees of the Bank of the Repub- lic of Chicago, will hold its annual picnic in Winnetka, today. The head- quarters will be in the Winnetka Woman's club, and the guests will have use of the public courts and bathing beach. 'Twas Some Alibi But Too Flimsy For our Coppers The only resemblance Winnetka's Indian Hill railway station bears to the great terminal at Madison and Canal streets, Chicago, is that they belong to the same company. Con- sequently a couple of 'boes' found loitering in the vicinity of our depot had no right to become offended at detention simply because they had spent the greater part of the past several months basking in close proximity to the aforementioned terminal. These boys, Camner Memonski and Joseph Fisher, found patrolmen Balkow and Dergdorf not in the least bit hospitable at 1 o'clock Tues- day morning and were still more peaked when the minions suggested lodgings in the village "hoosegow." Even the explanaion that they were making connections at Indian Hill with the next train for Nebraska made no impression on the flint- hearted coppers. They were re- leased and sent back to Chicago. BUILDING PERMITS PASS $76,000 MARK FOR WEEK Building permits issued this week by the Village Department of Public Works totalled approximately $76,700. Reid, 561 Cherry street, $300 garage; IL. D.

IT"'S--WELL ANNOYING TO HAVE A HORSE ON ONESELF Report that a horse was grazing contentedly, untethered and unat- tended, in the west limits of the vil- lage, the while trampling gardens and parkways, was the signal for a hurry-up call for the police Wednes- day afternoon. When the police arrived upon the scene of promiscuows devastation however, there was none of the equine species to be found, albeit the arms of the law had turned cow- punchers in the meantime being arm- ed with regulation lariats, etc. Was that a horse on the police? LOST ARE FOUND Kenilworth and Winnetka Police were called into action Thursday morning when the two small children of Mr. and Mrs. C. R.- Small of Ab- botsford Road, were reported to the police of both villages as having been missing for several hours. The lit- tle tots were found later at Elder lane and Poplar street by Patrolman {George Balkow. The family only recently moved into the neighbor- hood and the kiddies were out ex- ploring the surrounding region. VALUABLE RING MISSING The loss of a valuable platinum ring, with diamond and ruby settings, has been reported by Mrs J. Allen Haines. 846 Prospect avenue. The ring disappearel sometime between Saturday and Tuesday last, it is said. BROKEN LEG James Phillips of Kenilworth, em- ployed by the Consumers Company, suffered a broken leg Friday after- noon, in a fall while working in the [company's ice house on West Demp- ster street, Evanston. Phillips was taken to the St. Francis' hospital. POSTPONE BOND ELECTION The Special Bond Issue Election which, as was announced, had been called by the Winnetka Board of Ed- ucation for July 9, to put before the voters of the village the proposition of erecting an addition to the Gree- 'ley school to more adequaely accom- odate the primary grades, has been indefinitely postponed, according to word from members of the school board. Excessive cost of construc- tion is given as the reason for the de- lay at this time. 'CARNIVAL NIGHT AT COUNTY FAIR North Shore People will Hark Back to Childhood Days in Riot of Fun on Northwestern Campus MUSIC, DANCING AND FUN Children Have Big Time Saturday Afternoon. Older "Children" Plan for Night of Joy Saturday evening will demonstrate whether or not the north shore pos- sesses the carnival spirit. It will decide the question, will the north shore lay aside its calm dignity, don the domino and the false nose and show the world that when it comes to a Mardi Gras, New Orleans is not the only pebble on the beach? The world hears about the "Veiled Prophet" at St. Louis, the Rose Fes- tival at Portland, Oregon, the Flower Carnival of Los Angeles, the Rodeo of Wyoming, the convention of the Ancient order of Hibernians at Co- nep Island. Will the world hear about the north shore County Fair and the great carnival event of its closing day, Saturday, June 25°? Kaleidoscope of Color There will be fun, fun, fun. Laugh- ing, jostling crowds will ramble through the gymnasium building and over the grounds, tossing confetti 'land streamers. The Great Lakes band, the Daily News band, Benson's orchestra, or- gan music and songs will rise above the medley of happy voices, carrying on a continuous symphony of musical merry-making. Lanterns and briiliant lights will enliven the kaleidoscope of ever-mov- ing color. Costumes of any and ev- ery 'description will hide away the conventional garb of every-day hum- drum, and dignity will be concealed beneath a rediculous-looking domino. Just for one night--one short little night--everyone will play, throw off the cloak of reserve to indulge in a Mardi Gras. Frock coats, high hats, modist gowns, kid gloves -- hide them all away, just this once. Here is af- forded a chance to play. WIil you take it? Kiddies in Afternoon The program, music and stunts committee have planned a lively pro- gram in keeping with the occasion for Saturday afternoon and evening. The kiddies will have their cos- tume carnival in the afternoon. They are to be entertained by Belmont's mannequin circus, which is one of the "Club Room" during the whole three days of the Fair. Saturday is the day when they will receive their prizes for the ticket- selling ocntest. 'Dinadan", the prize pup, will go to his rightful owner. Some boy or girl will be presented with the first prize, which has been purposely kept a secret. Real Merry-Go-Round They will be able to climb on the Merry-go-round--picture a whirling merry-go-round, filled with brightly costumed children, bouncing to and fro on the dashing horses, and wav- ing streamers from the gilded coach- es! They can gather around the fish- pond and angle for prizes in its shim- mering depths. They can plunge their fists into the mammoth grab- bag and pull out-- well, nobody knows yet, the variety of toys they will pull out. When the sun goes down and night comes around, then the kiddies will be tucked away in bed and the el- ders will silently steal out to the Fair grounds and forget that they are elders, in the fun of being kids again. They will go to the "jumpies" in the Club Room and witness a high- class picture show; they will wander out into the auditorium and watch the lighted Indian club exhibit. They will watch the dancing, listen to the singing, and then, when they are thoroughly warmed up to the oc- casion--unlogse the streamers, toot the horns, let the confetti fly--The Carnival night is on! The County Falir, which opened Thursday for three days, is sponsor- ed by the King's Daughters, St. Mark's Guild and the Northwestern Settlement, and is held for charity. These three great organizations have a membership that extends through- out the north shore. the biggest attractions offered for. =y
