Ma ---- 46 WINNETKA TALK January 8, 1927 Plan Cooperation Between Villages in Paving Project The village of Glencoe has suggested to the village of Winnetka the paving of Green Bay road and Tower road, including the intersection of Tower and Green Bay roads and the widen- ing of Green Bay road, and that these streets be made a part of Sheridan road route No. 42, connecting with Green Bay road in Glencoe via Scott avenue to Sheridan road in the latter village, thus making it possible to avoid the ravine section of Sheridan road in Glencoe which, in winter, is often difficult to travel. Glencoe already has started pro- ceedings to pave Scott avenue and Green Bay road to the village limits of Winnetka. The Winnetka council plans to hold an informal public hearing on the matter, February 1, to secure the bene- fit of opinions of property owners in this vicinity in regard to the foregoing suggestions. The apple crop of Illinois for 1926 was about 8,875,000 bushels. - NEW Cash at our Poultry Farm, per doz. 50¢ POULTR HARRISON'S GLENVIEW, ILLINOIS On Waukegan Road.

Orvis assumed charge |of the Winnetka Health department, January 1, and attended a meeting of the Village council Tuesday evening. He gave a brief statement of his plans for carrying on the health work, in co- operation with the school board; the Evanston department and the Illinois department of public health. Thursday, when seen at his office in the Village hall, Dr. Orvis said: "In assuming the office of health of- ficer, I find my patient, the commun- lity, in a high state of health. The only |indisposition lies in a few cases of { chickenpox. Fortunately no new cases have been reported in the last few days. Chickenpox is not considered one of the serious contagious diseases, as it has less severe complications than measles or whooping cough, for in- stance. Its great loss to the commun- ity is in disruption of school attendance and the anxiety in the home, due to illness and isolation. "Unfortunately, like measles, the period of greatest possibility of trans- mission is during the catarrhal stage of the onset, often before any rash ap- pears. So, if parents will co-operate in carefully watching their children, especially when there is known ex- posure, and if any indisposition exists, keep them from school. We can avoid many cases. "The cases often show only a little headache and lassitude, but it may also include high fever, vomiting and a varying degree of prostration. In case of suspicious symptoms, call your fam- ily physician, as every case of chicken- pox should be observed by a physician. "If the Health department can be of service in advising in any way, do not hesitate to call upon us."

It is pubiished herewith in the interest of the association and its officers. CORRECT MISAPPREHENSION Misapprehension has arisen with re- gard to the skating project: 1. Some of our people have thought that it was the intention of the Indian Hill Improvement association to have the Skating committee operate the skating rink. This is not correct. The park authorities will manage the skat- ing. The sole function of the com- mittee is to raise funds to provide facilities. The Park board, due to lack of funds, was able to provide only the limited facilities of last year, and it was plain that if we were to have adequate skating this winter, some- body must provide the funds. The association considered this a commu- nity enterprise; we appointed a com- mittee for the purpose; and it went to work on practically the same plan as that previously adopted at Hub- bard Woods. 2. Some have thought it was our in- tention to exclude those who do not make contributions to the fund we are now raising. This is erroneous. In the first place, we have no author- ity to exclude anybody from the park or from the pond. In the next place, we want everybody--especially every child--in our community to have the joy of skating. Under no circum- stances, therefore, will anybody be excluded from skating privileges, even though he contribute nothing. We be- lieve, however, that most of our peo- ple will find themselves in position to co-operate with us financially to bring the benefits of skating to the children of the community. 3. As to the schedule of so-called "memberships," the amounts are the same as those adopted at Hubbard Woods. If any person feels they are excessive, but wishes to pay something, any amount will be accepted. 4. Just a word as to our plans: We had two things in mind; (a) We wanted to insure the presence at the pond at all times of a grown man, who will protect the little people in their right to skate without injury from the larger boys and who will see that the place is orderly. The same man will keep a fire in the warming house, sweep the ice, and flood the pond at proper times. (b) We wanted to provide a shelter house which would belong to our commu- nity. This will be taken down and stored each year by the Park author- ities and put up again every winter. This is an expense which we won't have next winter. Our only expense will be the first cost. We must also buy a stove and fuel and provide proper lights for evening skating. I have great confidence that these purposes of ours when understood will meet with the approval of our citizens. The people of Indian Hill have never failed to respond liberally for community projects, and those who support this one will provide the keen- est pleasure and healthful sport for the children, and for the grown-ups, too.

Irvins, curator of prints at the Metropolitan museum of Art, New York, has written an enthusias- tic and refreshing account which he says is "a record of some of the hap- piness that has come to a man in a museum." It is he who is largely re- sponsible for the public exhibition of books and prints which have been given at the Grolier club, New York.
