WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1924 DONATE PIANO 10 OUR SCHOOLS Kuppenheimers 'Add Stein- way to Memorial Hall Mr. and Mrs. Louis B. Kuppenheimer, generous donors to Skokie school of Jane Kuppenheimer hall, have again made the community indebted to them by placing in this beautiful memorial hall a magnificent Steinway concert grand piano. This instrument will not only add the finishing touch of comeli- ness to a hall noble in its proportions and unusually attractive in its color- ings and decorations, but it will also be an invaluable aid to school and com- munity music. This plano will be dedicated on Mon- day evening, October 13, by a recital to be given by the gifted young artist, Gitta Gradova, pupil of Mme. Djane Lavoie-Herz of Chicago. That this re- cital will be a great delight and in- spiration to the audience is assured when one considers the marvelous ability of Miss Gradova. By a writer in "The Nation" she is ranked as the "fore- most woman pianist now before the public." The following are excerpts from the numerous press notices testifying to Miss Gradova's tremendous talent: "Virility and great power, musical insight, an astonishing command of finger technique, together with feeling and imagination."--New York Herald. "Talent far beyond the measure dis- played by the average, a combination of technique and expressive power that captured and held the interest." --New York Tribune. "A player of exceptional gifts, con: sisting of strongly marked interpreta- tive talent, splendidly virile attack, ac- curate technical mastery, and a sensi- tive touch and soulful tone."--New York American. FIRE DESTROYS STAIRWAY The stairway leading to the boiler room, in the rear of the North Shore Gas company offices at 744 Elm street, was destroyed by fire Monday night, September 22. SUNDAY EVENING CLUB SUMMONS ITS MEMBERS Here's the first autumnal call of the Winnetka Sunday Evening club, an organization of aggressive young people who have been doing things hereabouts in the past year. "Attention, members!" reads a notice to Winnetka Talk from Mary S. King, chairman of the publicity committee of the club, "Sunday, October 5, is the date set for the first club meeting of the fall. Vacation is over and it is time to gather again to open a new season of pleasure and profit for the club. "The executive committee met re- cently at the home of President David Lasier and discussed many attractive plans for the current year. It was decided that the first meeting should be held at Community House on Oc- tober 5, in the Camp Fire room at 6:30 o'clock. "It is hoped that all members will be present and will try to bring at least one new member, each. The club is open to all unmarried res- idents of Winnetka of over high school age, and all those interested are urged to be present this Sunday. "There will be a further announce- ment in the Talk next week." Many Traffic Violators Run Afoul Our Coppers Speeders and other violators of the traffic regulations are not meeting with great favor with the Winnetka police, these days. The war on speed- ers is being carried on vigorously in conjunction with the rigid enforce- ment in Chicago.
