WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1922 NEWS of the NORTH SHORE CLUBS Prominent Clubwoman Announces Candidacy For Co. Commissioner F particular interest to club- women of the north shore is the recent announcement of the candidacy for County Com- missioner for the Country District of Mrs. Gertrude C. (Maurice H.) Lieber of 468 Ridge avenue, Winnetka. Mrs. Lieber has been conducting classes in paliamentary law and public speak- ing in nearly all of the clubs here- abouts, for several years past and has many friends and admirers. Mrs. Lieber was born in the Pro- gressive State of Wisconsin, at Som- ers, a village of three hundred inhabi- tants, and obtained her education in the rural schools about there, gradu- ating at the Racine High school. She received her normal training at the Whitewater Normal school and taught in the neighboring rural districts seven years. Since taking up her residence in Winnetka, Mrs. Lieber has served on the Board of Education for ten years consecutively and has been for two terms President of the Winnetka Woman's club. Her religious affilia- tions have been with the Congrega- tional church where she dedicated her services especially as President for four terms to the Woman's Society of the church. Her daughter, Ruth, now married and living at Tulare, Cal., is following in her mother's footsteps as principal of the grade schools in Tulare, and Perry, the only son, is now attending New Trier Township High school. Mrs. Lieber has given of her time and energy in public service unre- mittingly ever since she lived in Win- netka and is of the type of citizens who thinks first of the good of the community; as county commissioner she will assume duties and functions which need the housekeeping qualities of an efficient woman, and will help through the County institutions to ad- minister to the sick, the poor, and the infirm of the whole of Cook county. Friends of Mrs. Lieber are urged to rally to her support and attend a meet- ing next Monday evening, February 27, at the Winnetka Woman's club, where Mr. Harold Ickes and Mrs. Ira Couch Wood will give an informal talk on the Commissioners of Cook County as a whole. --Q-- The card and tea party planned by the D.
