Camp Fire Girls Beckon to Spring Food Sale Apr. 14 The Spring Food sale of the Win- netka Camp Fire Girls is 'set for the Saturday after Easter, April 14, from 10:30 A. M. until noon in Community House. At this time the girls will dis- play their artistry in cooking, and will offer to Winnetka housewives, at reasonable prices, the finest of hgme- cooked foods, which they, themselves, have prepared. While this effort on the part of the Camp Fire Girls helps to finance their general work here, it does more than that. It helps in the growth of the girl, gives her assurance in doing some of the things for the home, teaches her to learn how to work with others. Six groups will take part--each group having a table with its own display. Previous to the opening of the sale, the food will be judged by a committee from the Camp Fire council, and special honors awarded | to the table having the greatest va- riety, and the best looking articles, and to the groups having a hundred per cent in effort. Mrs. E. E. Stults of the Camp Fire council is general chairman. The Camp Fire Girls will be glad of the encouragement of the public by its attendance at this event, and are eager to follow their law of "Give Service" in offering their goods for sale. Winnetka housewives are in- vited to come to Community House Saturday morning, April 14. The New IT BEATS... as it Sweeps as it Cleans munity.
