October 17, 1925 WINNETKA TALK 9 Dawes Helps Film "Pony Express' on Tour Through West Vice-President Charles G. Dawes extended the range of his versatility recently when he assumed the role of motion picture director, and directed the filming of one of the important scenes for "The Pony Express," on the mammoth location set near Chey- enne, Wyoming. Aided by an occasional word from James Cruze, noted Paramount pro- ducer, and Betty Compson, who has the featured feminine role in this epic production, the General appeared to enjoy the experience, shouting "Cam- era!" like a veteran. General Dawes and his party, which included Mrs. Dawes, were the guests on the Cruze location of Senator and Mrs. Francis E. Warren of Wyoming. They inspected the huge set which was an exact replica of Julesburg, Colo., in the early '60's, and took a lively interest in the picturesque garb of the Sioux Indians and the tight-bodiced actresses who were clad in the volu- minous flounced skirts that were pop- ular in the West two-thirds of a century ago. "This is the most interesting thing I have seen on my trip West," Mr. Dawes told Cruze. "As a young man I spent much time in Western Ne- braska, when the Wild West was still wild. These sod houses you are using in your picture are more familiar to me than my own home on the north shore." Woman's Club to Hear Mrs. Edwin D. Pomeroy For a number of years, the Win- netka Woman's club has been intense- ly interested in the Vocational Su- pervisior League of Chicago. Its presi- dent, Mrs. Edwin D. Pomeroy, will come to the club Tuesday, October 19, to tell its members just what the league is doing for young men and women, and particularly to give ac- counts of those who have had training through the courtesy of the Winnetka club. Members are asked to present their membership cards. New License Ordinance Sets Variety of Fees A new license ordinance was intro- duced at the meeting of the Village council held last Tuesday evening. It provides for the following scale of fees: restaurants, $10 a year; public garages, $25 a year; billiards, pool and bowling, $50 a year for each table or alley; cigarets, $100 a year; real estate offices, $25 a year; junk dealers, $50 a year. This scale of fees is based on that employed in similar villages on ordinances in other the north shore. Au wl), 7 will [I hy J ALLL wa anil PANNE 7S ..
