Ed January 8, 1927 WINNETKA TALK NS Fal ART LEAGUE TO MEET AT WILMETTE JAN. 21 Wilmette Artists to Have Promi- nent Part in Program; In- vite School Teachers By MARJORIE WINDES The next meeting of the North Shore Art league will take place Friday, Jan- vary 21, at 8:15 o'clock, at the Wil- mette Woman's club, Miss Elizabeth Wells Robertson will speak on "Art Beginnings." Miss Robertson is superintendent of art dis- trict 8 of the Chicago Public schools and is known by those who have heard her to talk most interestingly on art for all ages. She supplements her ad- dress with illustrations. William Schmedtgen of 710 Green- leaf avenue, Wilmette, noted painter, will exhibit his pictures which were painted last year in Belgium, Holland, England, Spain and North Africa. This group of pictures was painted while he and his family were abroad. Mr. Schmedtgen has frequently exhibited in Chicago and other cities, and each year honors the Art league exhibi- tions with one of his works. Will View Sculpture Mrs. Jean Coburn of 915 Linden ave- nue, Wilmette, a frequent exhibitor of her sculptures in this vicinity, will have on view many of her finest works for the league members and guests to enjoy. She contributed the splendid frieze which adorns the wall above the mantle in the Wilmette Woman's club, and her townspeople as well as the Art league will be happy to honor Mrs. Coburn at the Wilmette meeting. Charles Morgan, another resident of Wilmette, living at 1401 Hill street, a decorative artist and etcher, as well as a mosaic worker, will have a collection of his work on exhibit, which was done here and abroad. It is the earnest desire of the Art league that a special invitation be giv- en to the teachers in the public schools along the north shore, to be the guests of the league at this January meeting. Invitations are to be sent to the principals of each school, and the teachers are to be invited. Meetings to Rotate Early in the fall, when the North Shore Art league held its first meet- ing, the policy of holding a monthly meeting in different towns was adopt- ed. In this way, each village included in the scope of membership would have opportunity to become better acquaint- ed with the many artists in the group, and each village would feel a part of the organization. A meeting has been held in Winnetka, one in Ravinia, and now a third in Wilmette. "WHAT PRICE GLORY" William Fox's prodigious picturiza- tion, "What Price Glory," is now in full swing at the Garrick theatre, Chi- cago, playing to capacity houses. It is the first motion picture in years that has clicked one hundred percent with the Chicago film reviewers, it is said. A symphony orchestra of thirty-five and a crew of thirty, working effects back stage, make for a whole a motion picture never yet attained in a Chicago theater. There are two performances daily, at 2:15 in the afternoon and 8:15 at night. TOUPEES and WIGS Natural as the Hair that was once your own. Phone Central 0604 FUNK & CO. 36 So.
