RRR ----------------------. WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1923 FAIRYLAND PLAY COMING, MAY 19 "On Fairies' Wings" to Be Given in Winnetka by Kindergarten College LOCAL WOMEN HELP "Builders" Are Sponsors of Performance North shore residents, adults as well as juvenile, Saturday afternoon, May 19, at 3 o'clock, will have an opportunity to decide for themselves whether or not Sir Conan Doyle is correct when he declares that there really are fairies, and advances what he claims to be scientific proof. At the time mentioned, prominent north shore women sponsor- ing the demonstration promise that fair- ies will appear on the stage of Jane Kup- penheimer Memorial hall of the new Skokie school, Winnetka, when "On Fairies' Wings" is presented by the student players of the National Kinder- garten and Elementary college. "On Fairies' Wings" consists of a depiction of fairyland, as conceived by experts on juvenile entertainment, the young women being trained at the col- lege as future kindergarten and primary teachers. Titania herself, fireflies, Puck, butterflies and good fairies, as well as one who is naughty, will appear as part of the program which is introductory to "Briar Rose," another bit of the land which some skeptics declare is one of make-believe and imagery, but which many true believers agree with Sir Conan Doyle really exists. Children are Convinced "On Fairies' Wings" recently was given twice at the Studebaker theatre, Chicago, under the sponsorship of chil- dren of widely known names in Chicago and on the north shore. The first per- formance was a benefit for the building fund of the National Kindergarten and Elementary College, as will be the Skokie school performance. The second performance was complimentary for children of the missions, hospitals and orphanages of the city. At these per- formances, Mrs. Philip D. Armour III, a trustee of the college and patron of the benefit, declared that not a single juvenile in the audience manifested any skepticism as to the reality of the fairies.

How You Can Avoid Foot Troubles By wearing shoes that are grace- ful and stylish but modelled correct- ly on the lines of the natural foot, with flexibility at the shank to per- mit the free action of the foot, you can avoid the foot troubles which experts say afflict the large majority of women, Foot troubles are shoe troubles-- rarely anything else: If your toes foot is are cramped, if your re- strained and distorted, if your weight is not distributed onto the weight-bearing surfaces of the foot, then your shoes are abusing Nature. Few people can abuse Nature with- out suffering for it sooner or later. Cantilever Shoes have done so much for the happiness of women because they follow the natural lines of the foot. The foot arch is flex- ible, so the arch of 'the Cantilever Shoe is flexible. There is no strip of metal concealed in the shank of these shoes as in all ordinary shoes. An eminent foot specialist of New York says: "The foot is a cantilever spring so made that when it is al- lowed to function normally it carries the body with the greatest possible case and resilience." (Quoted from Physical Culture Magazine.) The Cantilever Shoe is designed and constructed to allow that nor- mal functioning of the foot. Re- markably comfortable, good-looking and well made, it is preserving the foot health of many women every day, correcting the foot troubles of many others and giving to all a happiness which it will give to you. 1150 Central Ave., Wilmette "Wilmette Shoe Store Z.
