I] WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1918 CATHOLIC WOMEN ) By Mrs. A. E. Tilroe The annual meeting of the North Shore Catholic Woman's league was "held at the Winnetka Woman's club' all day, Thursday, April 11. Mrs. H. A. Morin, presided. Reports of of- ficers and chairmen of different com- mittees were read and accepted. Mrs. Morin, in a few well-chosen words, thanked the members for the splen- 'did co-operation and interest they manifested in the entire year's work. The recording secretary, Mrs. F. L.| Maloney, showed in her report where the league in the fourth year of its existance had realized the objects for which it was organized, due in a large measure to the untiring efforts of our president, who spared neither time, labor nor energy in making this year the most successful one in the history of the league. The Philan- thropic department, through its various activities, has raised suffi- cient funds to provide for destitute families and neglected children brought to the league's notice. A project in which the league justly prides itself was the purchase of two $50 Liberty bonds last Octo- ber. Plans are completed to give a patriotic luncheon at the home of Mrs. Frank Jones, 1118 Forest aven- ue, Wilmette, the proceeds of which will go toward the purchase of a third Liberty bond. Mrs. Harry Mills read a very in- teresting report on the Tenth Dis- trict meeting held at Ravenswood re- tently. Mrs.. Frank Jones spoke in the interests of the Third Liberty loan. The proposed amendments to the by-laws were acted upon. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Mrs. H. A. Morin. 1, Vice president, Mrs. J. J. Harnett. 2, Vice president, Mrs. Harry Wil- son. 3, Vice president, Mrs. A. E. Tilroe. Recording secretary, Mrs. F. 1. Maloney. Corresponding secretary, Mrs. Frank Jones. ' Financial secretary, Mrs. J. Bn. Martin. : 'Treasurer, Mrs. .B. T. McGivern. Directors, Mesdames William Doo- ley, William Connor, Robert Mehren, H. E. Mills, J. S. Cook, J. H. Stipe, N. P. Anderson, J. C. Williams, A. J. Vollmann, Katherine Murphy, James F. Hahey and Miss Susie Alles. The league then adjurned for the social hour, Mrs. Dooley and Mrs. Mills presiding at the tea table.

The work is in the nature of a prepara- going to do on Illinois farms this summer under the auspices of the Boys' Working Reserve. Many boys at the school are under- taking the new work and a great deal of enthusiasm is being displayed. Business of preparing the soil and the intricacies of planting are to be taught on the experimental farm so that when the boys "jump into the real farm harness" within a few months, they will be able to go about the work like regular tillers of the soil. The work on the experimental gar- den is under the direct supervision of Professor W. A. Snyder instructor in Agriculture classes at the high school. Boys who will remain at home during the sumamer months will continue with the care of the garden. Boys at work on the farm are: Wesley Allabeck, Tom Black, George Braun, Ned Brown, Allen Bulley, Richard Burrows, Ebberts Calhoun, David Carpenter, Bruce Colegrove, Weldon Dietrich, Austin Duncan, Ro- bert Ely, Fyffe Ehlers, Max Engel- hardt, Lee Fellows, Harold Finlay, Gordon Fleming, Jerome Flaherty, Horace Fowlers, Dan Fuller.
