June 2, 1928 WINNETKA ITALK Horace Mann Pupils Hold Parents' Day and Spring Festival More than 250 parents attended the combined spring festival and Parents' Day program presented by the pupils of the Horace Mann school last Tues- day. Staged under the direction of Mrs. Jean Hislop Rumry, musical di- rector in the intermediate grades, and Mrs. Betty Dale, physical director of the school, the outdoor program con- sisted of folk dancing and songs and other songs. Following the conclusion of this part of the program, the parents went to the grades in which their children were enrolled where an entertainment typi- cal of some part of the children's social science work was presented. Fach room chose something different, deal- ing with some country, either ancient, modern or medieval, or some play representative of a country. Children of one room had made a dirt map of early Winnetka, showing buildings, roads and other things of interest, and told their visitors the history of the Village as gleaned from interviews with somg of the older resi» dents. Among the demonstrations staged by other rooms were an Egyptian tour, a medieval play, a Greek play, a Vik- ing display, a European tour, a steri- opticon show of primitive homes, a Russian play, Russian and Japanese teas, a circus and other like entertain- ment. Mr. and Mrs. Donald K. Morrison, 1271 Scott avenue, are receiving con- gratulations on the birth of a son on May 29, at the Evanston hospital. The baby has been named Robert Lasier Morrison. LLL ELLIE LEE LEE E ELT TX "Something Old Something New Something Borrowed Something Blue" So runs the old rhyme about what the bride should wear on her wedding day--but here at the Band Box we, too, know what she should wear. Wedding gowns--bridal veils-- frocks and hats for the entire party. And all those lovely intimate things for the trousseau. We cordially invite the inspection of all brides- to-be--perhaps we can be of as- sistance in planning their wardrobe.

Teachers and parents are at work making curtains, lamps, chairs and other furnishings for the room and promise that it will be a veritable fairyland in which the children can enjoy reading to the utmost extent. It will be placed in use next fall. Mrs. Thomas Weston Ritchie of Winnetka, with Mrs. Arthur Reynolds of Chicago, is passing the week at the Ritz-Carleton at Atlantic City.

You may be sure theirs is not "small fry." The most successful bait for angling in the Sea of Life is money saved. It creates confidence; self-reliance, inde- pendence--the first lieutenants of Success. It isn't always the fellow who catches a whale that is happy--whales can be troublesome. You can't keep money from increasing--even a few dollars deposited each month are many at the end of the year--and so time passes and money accumulates. wise--open a Savings Account!
