Votes Approval of Drainage for Skokie The Winnetka Chamber of Com- merce at its meeting last Monday eve- ning voted to go on record as sup- porting the movement to drain the Skokie, acting in conjunction with other north shore villages, until such a time as the Park board or some other | body offer some better plan. The drainage of Skokie is not a dif- ficult engineering proposition, it was pointed out, and the estimated cost of the undertaking has been placed at something like a million dollars. One large open ditch starting up at High- land Park and extending on down through the Skokie area of Glencoe, Winnetka and Wilmette would accom- plish the result desired. Some of the many advantages which would result from this contemplated undertaking, was set forth in an article by George Park, a vice-presi- dent and also chairman of the civic committee of the Winnetka Chamber of Commerce, in the January 1 issue of Tug WINNETKA TALK. Mr. Park has long been interested in this project, and on Wednesday eve- | ning of this week, spoke before the | meeting of Glencoe Chamber of Com- merce on the subject. CIRCLE MEETING The Cherry Street circle will meet | Tuesday, January 18, at 10 o'clock, for an all-day meeting, at the home of Mrs. E. Irving Belote of 1136 Oak street. Mrs. Ed J. Thompson will be assistant hostess. 4 Let us equip your set with Light Power Socket Phone for prices and sug- gestions for best service.

Miss Mabel Katherine Pearse is the leading exponent in the middle west of the Bentley System of Motor-Mental sO music Rhythmics. This sounds somewhat terrifying as does her description which follows : "The work aims at a balanced | growth, bringing into muscular activi- ties a quality of the spirit. Through the technique of relaxation, freedom from physical and nervous inhibitions is obtained. This results in the na- tural use of the body as an instrument for an unselfconscious expression of each individual." To laymen, however, watching this {work in rhythms, and often to the mu- | sician, the results of the work seem somewhat simpler. Children are given a sense of rhythm in music, are given control over their bodies, and given a type of relaxation very much needed in these strenuous days. - The music work in the Winnetka Public schools makes considerable use of rhythms, especially in the lower grades, and has done so for a number of years. Members of the music de- partment in the schools have taken Miss Bentley's course and familiarized themselves with this system. It is therefore very fortunate from the standpoint of the schools that many children may have the opportunity of carrying the rhythm work further un- der Miss Pearse's competent direction. FRIEND OF HOSPITAL Mrs. James Greenebaum of 940 Cherry street, is one of the active north shore members of the Chicago Lying-in hospital and dispensary, which publishes a magazine called "Mothers' Aid." Mrs. Greenebaum has for many years been a member of this associa- tion, and has followed its history down to the present day, with the Univer- sity of Chicago taking such an active interest in it.
