August 25, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Xr 3 COLLEGES GET 81% OF NEW TRIER '28 CLASS High Percentage of Last June's Graduates to Continue Studies; Northwestern Leads With colleges and universities in all parts of the country opening next month, the 1928 graduates of New Trier high school are busy making plans for the coming school year. When a questionnaire was taken at the close of the school year in June it was found that eighty-one per cent of the 304 graduates planned to go to college this fall. This week a checkup of the records showing to what schools credits have been sent was made at the high school office. Judging from these records Northwestern university will get three times as many of the 1928 New Trier graduates as any other school. The figures showed Northwestern, 63; Un- iversity of Illinois, 20; University of Wisconsin, 9; Carleton college, 8, and other schools with smaller numbers. The fact that credits have been sent to a university does not necessarily indicate that the student will attend that university but the following list will give some idea of where the 1928 graduates will be continuing their ed- ucation.

Flower Sale Will Augment Building Funds of Church The attention of the villagers is di- rected to two attractive flower stands open for business today only, one near Rapp's store, just north of the Village hall, and the other in front of the Pauline shop, at 913 Linden avenue, Hubbard Woods. Large, beautiful bouquets are being donated by friends of the First Scan- dinavian Evangelical church for sale at these flower stands. The entire proceeds of the sale will go to the Building fund of the church. This fund is now rapidly increasing and plans are now being drawn for the contemplated alterations of the Elm street church. Last week several of the women of the parish served din- ner to more than one-hundred people in Lake Front park with the same object in view, that of swelling the building fund. This proved to be a real success. Revise Village Ordinance to Define Term "Nuisance The term "Nuisances" in the Win- netka Village code is to have a much broader meaning than heretofore, as provided by an amendment to that par- ticular ordinance, introduced by Trus- tee William B. Moulton at the meet- ing of the Village council Tuesday evening. The new paragraph, which will be known as nuisance No. 21, provides that "To produce, cause, or permit to be produced, in or upon any premises, any offensive noise to the disturbance of the peace and quiet of the persons residing in the vicinity of such prem- ises," shall constitute a nuisance. It was pointed out that it covers a multitude of possibilities but was ad- mitted that the long time complaint of residents in the vicinity of the un- loading tracks in the railroad yards is uppermost in mind. " Pedestrian Races Train to Crossing; Lands in Hospital Harry Abramson, of 4730 Drake avenue, Chicago, in his determination to board a Chicago, North Shore and Milwaukee Electric train towards which he was running, overlooked an approaching Chicago & Northwestern limited, which beat him by inches to the Elm street crossing and hurled him to the pavement, clear of the wheels. The crossing gates were down and warning was shouted to Abramson as he sped from the west of the right- of-way and "ducked" the gates. That instant the thundering locomo- tive shot in front of him, but his own momentum prevented his stopping in time to avoid striking the engine driver which tossed him aside. The accident occurred Tuesday after- noon at 4:30. Suffering from a pos- sible skull fracture, painful lacerations on the forehead over the right eye, and a fracture of the bones of the left arm, Abramson was removed to the Evanston hospital by Officer Harold Lewis, Frank Damaski, and L. D. Cole of 468 Ridge avenue, where it is said he will probably recover. Amputation of the arm became necessary Thurs- day. The train was No. 210, southbound, in charge of Conductor F. Debber. W. Ellis was the engineer. Wilmette Ballots Soon on Incinerating Plant The first step to establish a modern garbage dispesal plant in New Trier township was taken Tuesday of this week by the Wilmette Village Board when it called a special election to be held September 25 for the purpose of voting upon the proposition of a $50,000 bond issue to be utilized in se- curing a site for and construction of an incinerating plant. Should Wil- mette favor such a project it is thought not improbable that Winnetka and other north shore communities may negotiate terms for use of the plant. HEAR MISSION LEADER The Rev. T. J. Bach, director of the Scandinavian Alliance Mission, will preach at the First Scandinavian Evangelical church, 886 Elm street, Winnetka, tomorrow evening at the 7:45 o'clock services. "I'VE waited until now to take my vacation. Am I wise?" ""Are you going to have WINNETKA TALK sent to you while you're away?" "Yes." "You're wise!" Just call our Circula- tion Department--say when and where. They'll do the rest. RICHARD C.PAPAIN SILVER WEDDING FETE Friends From Far and Near Join Hubbard Woods Family at Nuptial Anniversary Twenty-five years, a quarter of a century, has elapsed since Richard C. Papa, now pioneer business man of Hubbard Woods, then a young man in the employ of the Western Electric company, and Miss Emma Guelzow were united in marriage. The cere- mony was performed by the Rev. Karl Schmidt, at St. James Evangelical Lu- theran church, Chicago. Last Monday evening, the annivers- ary of this happy event, they were joined by seventy-five of their rela- tives and friends in a fitting observ- ance of the arrival at this epochal mile stone in life's journey together. An appropriate service was held at Trinity Lutheran church, Glencoe, at 7:30 o'clock, by the pastor, Rev. L. Nauss. Following the service a wedding dinner was served in the recreation room of the church hall, where a pro- fusion of ferns and roses, as also in the church, completed the nuptial cele- bration setting. : Pastor Is Toastmaster Rev. E. F. Schueler, of Milwaukee, kin of Mr. and Mrs. Papa, made a pleasing address, and also presided as toastmaster. Other speakers were Dr. W. C Kohn, president of Concordia Teach: ers' college at River Forest, an un- cle of the bride; the Rev. F. C. Streu- fert and the Rev. Herbert Kohn, oft Chicago, cousins of the bride; Paul Guelzow, also of Chicago, brother of the bride; William Papa, of Hinsdale, brother of the groom. Miss Esther Lawrence, of Chicago, gave a number of readings, and Henry Schroeder of Glencoe presided at the organ. : Many beautiful presents were re= ceived and numerous congratulatory letters and telegrams read. On Thurs- day evening of last week a pre-cele- bration of the anniversary was held by members of the Ladies' aid society Glencoe presided at the organ. There were present Monday evening many who were included among the wedding guests twenty-five years ago. Happiest of these was Mr. Papa's aged mother, Mrs. Carl Papa, residing at 3617 South Robey street, Chicago, and who is now 85 years old. At Hymen's altar twenty-five years ago, Mr. Papa and his bride were at- tended by Emil Burandt of Wauke- gan, Robert Guelzow of Glencoe, Miss Louise Papa and Mrs. Helen Schroe- der of Chicago. These, also, werd numbered among the happy guests at the anniversary service and dinner. On North Shore 15 Years : Mr. and Mrs. Papa moved to Win- netka 15 years ago. They saw in Hub- bard Woods the ideal home and com- munity section of the north shore and visioned its continued growth and de- velopment. Mr. Papa first opened a small elec- tric and bicycle repair shop in a frame building which stood on Gage street at the North Western railroad tracks Land which is now his garage. A One year later he pioneered the splendid business development which has since marked the growth of Lin- den avenue, by erecting at No. 902- 904 the substantial two-story brick building, 40 by 60 feet, which has since been his store and home. The second floor eomprises a mod- ern apartment, where Mr. and Mrs. Papa and their only child, Carl, now 21 years of age, reside The store, known as the Hubbard Woods Electric & Hardware, occupies the first floor. R. C. Guelzow, a brother of Mrs. Papa, and the Carl, are assistants in this steadily growing business.
