WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1925 SCHOOL ENJOYS RECORD GROWTH Kindergarten College Enroll- ment Takes Jump Previous records for freshman reg- istration at the National Kindergarten and Elementary college were broken last week with the enrollment of 181, an increase of 25 per cent over the enroll- ment of new students at this time last year. The increase is no doubt largely 'due to the prospect of the transfer of the college from its present Chicago location to the new campus on the north shore during the present school year. The total enrollment to date includes students from 25 states, stretching from Connecticut to Washington and from Montana to Louisiana, with rep- resentatives from Canada, British West Indies, Bulgaria and Poland. At least half of the students, how- ever, come from Chicago and the im- mediate vicinity. The following have registered from New Trier: Wilmette: Mary Stoddard, 524 Lake avenue; Gladys Huntley, 1703 Forest avenue; Mary Raffety, 519 Greenleaf avenue. Winnetka: Helen Hubsch, 1072 'Spruce street; Laura Adams, 1044 Elm street; Lois Scharf, 509 Cherry street. Launches Ballet Classes in Wilmette Next Month Gladys Hight, director of the ballet school in Chicago that bears her name, will open her classes for children and adults at the Woman's club building, Tenth street and Greenleaf avenue, Thursday, October 1. Miss Hight only recently returned from an extended Mediterranean tour, taking her through the countries of the Near East, Egypt, and Spain where she made a special study of native dances which she will introduce in her work this season. Her studies took her to Spain, Greece, Italy, Algiers, 'Tunis, Egypt, and the Holy Lands.

Figures Show How Auto Fees Aid Road Building North shore motorists will be inter- ested to know that during the admin- istration of Secretary of State Louis I... Emmerson of Illinois, a total of nearly $62,000,000 has been collected in fees by the automobile department. The exact amount collected from January, 1917, to August 30 this year 1s $61,875,000. When the financing of the first hard road system was being discussed in 1917 considerable doubt was express- ed as to whether the automobile fees would be sufficient to pay off the $60,000,000 bond issue. - Leaving out the matter of interest, enough has been collected already in the first eight years of the 20-year period to pay off the principal. In 1917 only $1,587,772 was collected by the automobile department. During the first eight months of the present year $12,600,000 was collected and the total for the year will run well over $13,000,000. In the meantime the number of auto- | mobile licenses issued annually has increased from 340,292 in 1917 to over 1,065,000 issued up to August 30 this year. Mrs. Francis C. Prest, who took her 12 year old son to Europe in the spring, is expected home early next month, sailing on the Olympic from Southamp- ton, September 30. Her daughter, Mrs. John Q. Magie of 701 Foxdale avenue, and Mr. Prest will motor east to meet her and bring her home.
