WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1925 Kenilworth Happenings There is no denying the evidence *that the summer season is in full swing in Kenilworth. It's an un- selfish season from the social stand- point because the Kenilworth mamas and papas who are usually pretty busy about their own affairs now have but one notable object in mind, and that is to devise ways and means of enter- taining the young folk who are now clamoring for attention. Some of the plans are simple and delightful ones and carry the whole family group to woods and waterside resorts. Others are very elaborate indeed, and are in keeping with the demand of the youth of today for fun and adventure in large measure. The parents them- selves seem quite happy and satisfied with a chummy foursome on the links or supper and dancing of a Saturday night at the golf clubs. --_--0-- The Ira C. Darlings of 256 Kenil- worth avenue were exulting in a cable- gram received from Paris Monday, telling of the safe arrival in Europe of Miss Betty Darling and Miss Virginia Woodland in company with a group of traveling companions.
