Green HE programs at Ravinia have always been a great source of pleasure to all music lovers, but this season has so far excelled all others in talent and well-balanced programs as to make it by far the most enjoyable of any year. Surely the rendering of the opera "La Bo- heme" displayed unusual ability that is seldom equaled. Special attention should be given to the perfect en- semble throughout the performance. However, unusual work is not con- fined to "La Boheme," but has been made manifest throughout all the programs and by the entire com- pany. ' The program given Thursday after- noon for children seems to be gain- ing in popularity with the grown-ups n : as well as the children.

EIGHT MEN ARE TO SAIL Volunteers to Relieve Soldiers Held for This Service. Everett H. Wilson, 727 Greenwood avenue, has been accepted by the Evanston War council as a transport driver for the American field serv- ice in France. for which the Evans- ton council has guaranteed to pay the expense of eight men. The five men so far approved are Philip Frost, W. 'W. McCarthy, George A. Durgin, Evanston; Earl and: Everett Wilson of Wilmette. The men will sail with the first division of Chicago volunteers and they are expected to sail on August 25. This service is a voluntary one and it is being sought by men of physi- cal capability and motor knowledge who have been refused service un- der the selective draft on account of some slight defect, but are still able to drive a transport. In offering these volunteers the American field service is doing an important work in aid of the allied cause, by releas- ing for service in the French army thousands of trained soldiers now at work as transport drivers. The po- sition is one of some danger and has no pay attached to it, the French simply providing board and lodging for those engaged in it, and the mem- bers of the Evanston organization who have chosen to serve the cause in this way are advancing the money to pay the car fare of volunteers, purchase their equipment and uni- form and provide them with ten dol- lars a month for their incidental ex- penses, and their return transporta- tion. The volunteers so far secured are of the highest type, and it is the ex- pectation of the committee that others of the same class will appear at the Evanston headquarters for their approval this week.
