WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1925 GREAT CATTLE FILM ON WAY "North of 36" Next for Community House "Boys," says Lois Wilson, "--boys, I'm broke. I'm busted clean and fair." That's the start of Emerson Hough's novel, "North Of 36," which is de- scribed as the companion picture to "The Covered Wagon" and is to be shown at Community House nevt Fri- day and Saturday, February 20-21. At that time, many in the south were bankrupt. Miss Wilson, who plays the part of Taisie Lockhart, owner of the Del Sol ranch in central Texas, is no better off than the rest. Nobody counted their cattle, for cattle couldn't be sold. There was no market, no railroad. The carpet-baggers at Austin, led by Sim Rudabaugh (Noah Beery) are stealing land scrip, driving off cattle and dreaming of a day when they will be masters of a great empire in the south. Then comes word that a railroad has been built as far as Abilene, Kansas. Cattle, it is said, are in de- mand there at as much as ten dollars a head. Taisie decides desperately to drive all the cattle left by Ruda- baugh's raiders to Abilene more than 1,000 miles away. Nobody has ever driven cattle that far. There is no trail. But Ernest Torrence, playing Jim Nabours, the grizzled ranch foreman, and Jack Holt, as Dan McMasters, think that it can be done. Here's the second "Covered Wagon" of this generation--just as big a story, just as stupendous a production, by the same author and with a cast that spells perfection. Want Boulevard Stops on Illinois State Highways A bulletin issued by the legislative department of the Chicago Motor club announces that it will support the bill which will compel motor ve- hicles to stop before crossing state highways. This is in the interest of Hill and Stone Report Two Local Realty Deals Two recent sales are reported by the Hill 'and Stone real estate office this week. The Greenhalgh residence at 350 Forest avenue has been sold to Joseph H. Brown of Winnetka and the Lester Lines' home at 1152 As- bury avenue has been sold to F. Hel- mold of Chicago. This office reports various other transactions in the process of completion. Winnetka Youth Designs Queer Cross-Word Puzzle Arthur Dominick of the Skokie school has designed a cross-word puz- zle design of the crossed "S" momo- aram of the school. This design was published in the last issue of the Journalist, school organ, and that paper is offering prizes for a puzzle to be made from it. It is also intended to offer prizes for the correct solution of that puzzle when it has been made. Second Legion Dance is Arranged for February 26 The second of a series of winter lances given by Winnetka Post, No. 10 of the American Legion will be held at Community House Thursday evening, February 26. Ted Morse's orchestra will provide the music. Tom Brown is chairman of the dance committee, assisted by Arthur Gedge, 'red Richardson and Dr. Harold J. Lynn. LEGION MEETING FEB. 23 The next meeting of Winnetka Post of the American Legion will be held Monday evening, February 23, at headquarters in Community House. safety, says the bulletin, and will re- duce accidents just as the boulevard stop law has reduced accidents. The club will make a fight on the bill calling for a full stop before a railroad because the passage of this bill, according to the legislative de- partment, would relieve the railroads from all lability in case of accident, and because there is a bill now on the] books which makes it compulsive for automobiles to stop at all extra hazardous crossings.
