SEND YOUR OLD BOOKS TO AMUSE THE CADETS Sailors at Great Lakes Station Ap- preciate Old Magazines. Have you any magazines to spare for the jackies at the naval training station? <There are 8000 of them there now and more coming in all the time and they appreciate reading matter. They do not want fashion magazines, such as some kindly folk have sent, but Popular Mechanics, Outing, the World's Work, stories of adventure, everything of the red blooded kind. It need not matter that the maga- zine be old to you. It will be new to some lad who wants to find some- thin gto occupy his leisure time. If you bring such magazines to the recruiting office in the city hall they will be taken to the Great Lakes sta- tion, where the newly established Y. M. C. A. gives the ideal method of distribution among the men. = Personals One of the most successful social benefits of this season was given Fri- day afterncon at the Winnetka Wo- man's club, when the Navy league, of which Mrs. William H.
