WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 1925 wr OUTWARD BOUND NEXT FOR GUILD Unusual Play to be Staged Late in March "Outward Bound," by Sutton Vane, is announced as the third production of the North Shore Theatre Guild for the cur- rent dramatic season on the north shore. The play is to be staged under the direction of Alexander Dean. It is safe to predict, Guild leaders de- clare, that this piece will be provoca- tive of more violent controversy and differences of opinion than any play yet presented by that organization. Whether one can agree with its philosophy, or not, all must attest to its dramatic appeal, they maintain. Burns Mantle has ranked "Outward Bound" as one of the 10 best plays of the 1923-24 season. John Corbin of the New York Times said of it: "Something rather extraordinary happened last night. A play about death caught the attention of a New York audience, en- listed its sympathy, amused it generally and ended by stirring it to a very con- siderable depth of human pity and moral terror." Hayward Broun of the New York World said: "It is touched with the most extraordinary imagination, and is among the most interesting and moving events which have happened in the theatre." Alexander Woolcott of the New York Herald said: "It is one play in a thou- sand--ifull to the brim with awe." "Outward Bound" ran for six months in New York and played last autumn in several cities of the Kast. In bringing it to Chicago for the first time the Guild is carrying out one of its cherished policies. In realistic "setings" the Giuld pro- ductions, particularly those of "Pygmal- ion," "Mixed Marriage," "The Truth About Blayds," and "Fashion," stand out vividly in memory. In "Outward Bound" one may look forward to a most unusual scene, the cabin of a ship, which will be carefully executed by Aleyn Burtis, producer for the Theatre Guild. Performances will be given in Kenil- worth on March 25; Lake Forest, March 26; Highland Park, March 27; Win- netka, March 28 and 30, and Evanston, March 31 and April 1. Further information may be obtained from Mrs. J. Cordner West, business manager, 937 Gordon terrace, Winnetka. Mr. and Mrs. R. Floyd Clinch of Hubbard Woods were among those at- tending the inaugural ceremonies in Washington. --(-- Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Tuttle are spend- ing two weeks in New York. ; CHORAL GROUP GIVES CONCERT ON TUESDAY By CHORISTER Remember the date !. It may help you to do so, if you know it is on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, in the evening, at 8 o'clock--we refer to that concert to be given at the Woman's club by the Winnetka Choral society. You will get much more than the worth of your moderate admission price when you listen to what promises to be one of the very best concerts given in Winnetka this season. Last year everyone was most en- thusiastic over the work of the chorus, as demonstrated at its recital, and this year the program promises to be even more successful than the initial public appearance of the village songsters. The members have been rehearsing with utmost enthusiasm under the in- spiring leadership of their able con- ductor, Noble Cain. Two soloists, Mrs. Noble Cain and Rolling Pease, as well as Erwin Wal- lenborn, pianist, have been retained to provide special numbers for the pro- gram. The Choral society enterprise is part- ly financed by the Winnetka Village Improvement association and a home is provided for it at the Winnetka Woman's club. Come and enjoy an immensely fine musical evening. Tickets may be ob- tained from members of the society or at the door. Psychologist to Speak at Men's Class Sunday The speaker for the session of the Winnetka Sunday Morning Men's class on. March 15 will be Dr. Ralph C. Hamill, well known psychologist and neurologist. Dr. Hamill is a resident of Winnetka. His subject will be, "Psy- chology of Religion." Last Sunday the class Norman E. Richardson, religious education at university. The class meets in the American Legion room at Community House at 9:30 o'clock. Its sessions are open to all men of the village. heard Prof. professor of Northwestern Building & Carpenter Work Call Highland Park 896-Y-4 E. E. TAPANINEN Mail Address, Northbrook, Ill.

Joe Stoner & Co. have learned that Wise Women when their Schools Now Engaged in Taking Census of Village Carleton W. Washburne, dent of schools in Winnetka, is putting into effect a new plan for taking the school census which is required superinten- village by law every He is sending out postal cards to all persons whose names appear on the village water or light bills, and to all those whose names appeared in a previous village census. Arrangements have also been made to get the names of all those who apply for building permits. It has been the cus- tom formerly to take the census in the summer months, employing students for the purpose. This method was found to be expensive and inefficient, as many families are away in the summer and in- correct information is sometimes given by neighbors. The new methods will prove much quicker and more accurate, year. in the opinion of the village authorities.
