6 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1924 ELABORATE SETS FOR GUILD PLAY Huge Lighting Equipment Needed for "The En- chanted Cottage" PANTOMIME FEATURE Performance Next Thursday at Kenilworth When the North Shore Theatre Guild produces "The Enchanted Cot- tage" November 8 and 10 at Skokie school, Winnetka, it achieves a new accomplishment with regard to its producing. Not only is the scenery the most elaborate the Guild has undertaken, but a tremendous lighting equipment has been bought, which will be carried over the circuit, and the lighting will not be done by the equipment in the different halls. "The Enchanted Cottage" contains an elaborate pantomime in the second act. This has been directed by Mrs. William Ogden Coleman of Winnetka, and there is a special company of thirty dancers for this spectacle. The solo dances are done by Mrs. Edward Ellis of Winnetka, Miss Julia Hanks, who . teaches dancing at the Royce- more School in Evanston, and Miss Evelyn Brown, teacher of dancing at the Kenilworth Community Center. They are assisted by William Hardy, F. Cowles Strickland of Evanston, and Henry Lane of Winnetka. Special music has been composed for the pantomime by Mrs. Henry D. Sulcer of Chicago. It has been orchestrated and will be played by a special or- chestra of six pieces. The "dances include groups of people from Kenil- worth, Winnetka, and the School of Speech of Evanston. Unusual and beautiful lighting effects will be used. Duberg Designs Scenery The scenery has been designed by George Duberg, who has studied at the Academy of Fine Arts at Petro- grad, and later in Moscow. He studied theatrical and scenic arts with Dr. Nicholas Roerich, one of the foremost European stage artists. He has worked in scenic studios in Petrograd and in Finland, and was assistant artist for the Swedish Opera in Helsingfors. He has been in this country two vears during. which time hej has directed and produced many plays. "The Enchanted Cottage" by Sir Arthur Wing Pinero, one of the most famous of English dramatists, tells a fantastic story of two ugly creatures who, through the eyes of love, see each other, not as they are, but as they would like to be. There is a great deal of humor, charming pathos, and excellent climatic scenes. It is played by an all-star Guild cast, including Stewart Bailey, Miss Elenor Eckhart, Mrs. E. V. L.. Brown, Mrs. Alexander O. Mason, Miss Margaret Fabian, J. William Macy, Percy Eck- hart, and Thomas Rollo. The Guild membership campaign is now on, and one can obtain member- ship by applying to Mrs. Ernest H. Fleischmann of Kenilworth. The fee is $8.00, which includes eight tickets to the four major productions, and six tickets to the Northwestern Uni- versity Playshop performances. Organize Workers for "Forget-Me-Not" Day Little forget-me-not flowers, made of cloth or other materials, by corps of dis- abled veterans, girls and women work- ers, and others offering their services to assist the wounded World war vet- erans, are to be sold on the streets and in buildings and public places in Win- netka on Saturday, November 8, Na- tional Forget-me-not Day. Girls and prominent women of the community will distribute the forget-me-nots, working in teams and companies under the direc- tion of their leaders and captains throughout the city. The entire proceeds of the day's ac- tivities wil go towards the relief and welfare of the disabled American vet- erans, and in assisting them in their am- bitions to once more become useful, self-reliant citizens of the nation for which they made many great sacrifices. According to Mrs. Harry M. Lay, chairman of the Winnetka campaign, the "Forget-me-not Day" is receiving the hearty support of the Woman's club and it is expected that Winnetka will again go over the top in their help to the wounded and disabled World. War veterans. A CORRECTION An article in last week's issue of WiIxNETKA TALK concerning the Wom- an's society reunion observances in con- nection with the Congregational Church Jubilee contained the folowing phrase: "Reminisences, some historically inaccu- rate, were presented by Mrs. 'Well-Re- member and others." We are informed the phrase should have read: "Remin- iscences, historically accurate, were pre- sented etc." The error was committed in a contributed article. PLAN LARGE SPRAGUE MEETING FOR MONDAY (Continued from page 1) veterans of the World war, Col. Sprague naturally has formed very decided opin- ions concerning his country's duty to- ward those who are still "fighting the battles of France." Here are a few of his crisp sentiments on the subject of rehabilitation work: On Rehabiltation "Those who have thus far sys- tematically neglected to aid and fight for the proper care of the dis- abled are not competent to handle or speak for their future care." "The salvation of the government does not lie in the occasional in- terest of the few, but in the con- tinuous interest of the many." "We have no more right to pass the buck as citizens, than we had as men in the front line advancing against an enemy." "The story of hospital construc- tion is a tragedy for the sick, an affront to their comrades and a discredit to the Government." "If 1 am elected United States Senator, I wi]l devote my time and energies to seeing that such condi- tions are not continued and that government obligations toward the disabled are squarely and humanely met." ; As a highly successful business man and civic worker, Col. Sprague is de- scribed as a thorough-going student of government and laws affecting every phase of our political, industrial and economic lfie. "Sort of Man Needed" One prominent writer has said of the candidate: "A sound thorough business training is his foundation for a tried executive ability of the very highest order, but a wide experience in everyday life, that has taught him what other people's mis- fortunes and troubles are, is probably what he himself considers his most valuable equipment for public service.. He is an 'American and a believer in America. He is not of those who think this country incapable of working out her own destiny unentangled. He would give her domestic policies the fullest opportunity to develop, without hand- cuffing her destiny to foreign wrists.... A man like this--a believer, a worker, a fighter--should make a United States senator of the sort we need now." Find Liquor in Machine After Kenilworth Crash An automobile driven by a woman, said to have been intoxicated, in which her four children were passengers, and in whose possession were found two bottles of intoxicants, collided with an automobile driven by Henry O'Hagen Saturday night at Sheri- dan road near Melrose avenue, Kenil- worth. The woman and an 18-year old son were badly cut and both cars were damaged. Mrs. McClain Reinhart of 352 Ridge avenue is on an extended trip in the cast.

But hardly had he settled into his easy chair before his sigh of contentment changed to a shiver. The room waschilly. He felt of the radiator. It was cold. Someone had forgotten--left the draft open-- and the fire had burned out complete- ly. So most of his evening was spent in the disagreeable, messy job of build- ing a new fire and making numerous trips to the basement to nurse it along.
