a ------ WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL, 28, 1923 F INTEREST only to our ADVERTISERS We appreciate a man who shows good judgment.

The Hubbard Woods garage is run- ning an honest-to-goodness sale on high class tires this week. The prices are very attractive too, we are told.

Who Started It Anyway? Sure Made a Nice Story That formal reception held at the A. N. Burnham home was reported with faithful adherence to fact in every respect but one. It was a love- ly story, Mrs. Burnham's comments. but the funny part of the whole thing is, it had no basis in fact. The Burn- hams did not celebrate their wedding anniversary with a formal reception. There was no reception whatsoever. Matter of fact, Mrs. Burnham is the excellent authority for the infor- mation that she spent last Wednesday darning stockings with a friend. The Burnhams reside in that at- tractive "Log Cabin" home on North avenue. Garage Fire Threatens W. C. McNitt Residence What might have been a serious fire at the home of William C. Mc- Nitt, 957 Pine avenue, was avoided late last week when the Winnetka fire department put out the flames in a blazing garage which were scorching the sides of the house. The garage at the back of the McNitt home caught fire from an unknown source. When the department arrived the frame building was a furnace of flames and the heat from the burn- ing garage was endangering the house nearby. Damage to the build- ing amounted to $175. An overheated furnace pipe caused a small fire in the basement of tha G. E. Farwell home at 1088 Elm street. Before the flames were well started an alarm was turned in. The fire was checked without difficulty. There was no damage. Announce Special Music Program at Local Church The music at the Winnetka Con- gregational church Sunday morning at 11 o'clock will include a contralto and tenor duet, "Calm as the Night," by Goetze, mhich will be sung by Mrs. Slade and Mr. Lawlef: a con- tralto solo "Eye Hath Not Seen," sung by Mrs. Slade, and a soprano solo, "Hear Ye Israel" from Mendels- sohn's Elijah, to be sung by Miss Lacey.

Music Pupils Entertain Parents With Recital The pupils of the Winnetka branch of the Columbia School of Music, with Miss Kathleen Air, Miss Kath- erine Hedglin and Mrs. Florence Breyfogle, entertained their parents with an informal musical last Friday evening.

For, while you think in terms of oral or written expression, we as printers concen- trate on the question of how to interpret expression in type. And so many factors are involved--what face and size of type, what colors to create the strongest eye- appeal, what paper as the most appropri- ate to the purpose of the printing. In this organization we can relieve you of production of an order and it is our con- stant encouragement that customers more many details and worries incident to the | frequently say, "Print this as you think best." Call us into consultation before you are all ready to have it printed. LLOYD HOLLISTER, Inc. . Printers and Publishers Landscaping Lawn and Garden Work E. F.
