" WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1919 BIG STARS IN BIG ROLES AT VILLAGE THEATER EE ---Tr You're bound to have a good time .any evening next week if you go over to the Village theater. There'll be a veritable bevy of stars at their best in the attractions for the next 8 days. Charles Ray in "The Girl Dodger" heads the bill on Monday. Pathe News will be an added feature. Tuesday brings the great Houdini in his wonderful serial, "The Master Mystery." The Wednesday and Thursday at- traction will be D. W. Griffith's spec- tacular film, "A Romance of Happy Valley," with Robert Harron and Lillian Gish in the leading roles. It's a story of simple folk, said to be far reaching and effective in its power for good. Marguerite Clark assumes the place of honor at the Friday and Saturday performances. She appears in "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch," a pic- turization of the story by Alice Hegan Rice that almost every one has read. Miss Clark appears in the famous role or "Lovey Mary" which is said to be one of her best im- personations this season. Pathe News will also be shown. . "ODDS AND ENDS" AT : VICTORIA NEXT WEEK A musical révue that will attract more than passing interest will be Jack Norworth's "Odds and Ends," which will be presented at the Vic- toria on Sunday matinee, March 2, following its run of five months at the Garrick theater, Chicago, as well as runs of equal length in New York l and Boston. The original production will be seen here in its entirety and an added feature is the special aug- mented orchestra carried by the company. In the cast will be found Max Bloom, Florence Rayfield, Donald Dunn, Nell O'Connell, Rupert Dar- rell, Peggy Brown, David Robertson and which includes a large chorus that is expected to set a new standard for beauty and distinction. - RARE AND FINE NEW BOOKS | Eloquently Written by \ "DOC" ROSELUND TUFF OF MASONRY mR HR cui i a REED THE ROSE........ i fhe most mysterious novel WINNETKA TIRE SHO 723 Qak Street, Winnetka TELEPHONE WINNETKA 1565 Vulcanizing - Repairing Hood, Mason and Firestone Tires: £{ Monarch Perfection Red Tubes MILLERAD-ON-A-TREAD PUT ON YOUR OLD CASINGS finest in the United States! 5 Your bookseller, or send to ROSELUND'S BOOK CONCERN 1524 Masomle Touple, or 7 E.

Naturally many patterns we are displaying have been discontinued and many more are difficult to obtain. With this in mind we have decided to dispose of the entire assortment of these particular items at sharply reduced prices. "Taking into consideration the steady increase in the value of silver, this is a splendid oppor- tunity to purchase silverware at a minimum. A Partial List of the Many Pieces Is Shown Here-- Bowls, Baskets, Dishes, Trays, Toilet Articles, Mar- malade Jars, Salt and Pepper Sets, Smoking Accessories, Liquor Bottles, Bon Bon Dishes, Bottle Openers, Travel- ing Cups, Vases, Candle Sticks, Picture Frames, Pitches. Tea Pots, Coffee Pots, Cups, Novelties, Urns, Cream and Sugar Sets, Leather Goods. CHARLES E. GRAVES & CO.

No doubt some of the new sizes, 33x45, will do 30,000 miles.
