SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1922 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURI= marriages between American wo- men and men of alien affiliation were there full understanding on the part of the woman that in the marriage contract there is of nec- | ssity the forfeiture of her Ameri- can citizenship. If more women understood this condition im- posed by the law of the land there would, perhaps, be a more enthusiastic endorsement of the effort to change that law and to provide for independent citizen- ship for American born women. | Dr. Charles E.

And this is being achieved, according to Agnes Repplier, through the medium of the elaborate toys which are made and given to boys and girls, toys so complete in their simultation of things in the adult world that there is no need for the exercise of imagination. When the boy whose desire was for a train, and so great, that he constructed one from the available chairs that could be strung into position, he had to call upon his imagination to convert the well-known furni- ture into engine and coaches, to provide power and motion. To- day when track, cars of every description and an electrically driven engine are to be had, there is no reason for anything but the acceptance of the restrictions that the toy presents, with far less of joy and no educational value. «Few toys and those simple, few books and better than those of the collection on the shelves of the average child, are the great needs of the children of today, if they are to grow to maturity with any power of imagination developed within them. It is not easy to get back to simplicity in anything in this day of restlessness and distaste for amusements that make some de- mand upon the individual. Per- haps the adult generation is be- yond help, but a return to: sim- plicity in the toys and in the books of children ought not to be beyond the power of the average home and it would ensure a generation richer in resources for pleasure and for usefulness than that of today. LAW FOR THE LAITY With the widening of the hori- zon of womankind has developed a need unknown in the past when it was the exceptional woman who had no male relative to whom to look for guidance in her every undertaking. It is a need which is being met by the College of the City of New York in a series of lectures for women, the subjects of which are related to law. There was a time when every- body knew some law and there were few lawyers. Today there is an abundance of lawyers and the average person is all but com- pletely ignorant even of the rudi- ments of the profession. It is the purpose of the lecture course offered by the New York institu- tion to provide information for women in such matters as the na- ture of a contract, the legal prin- ciples that govern insurance, the meaning of leases and mortgages, lack of knowledge of which may easily affect their home security. There is no intention of encourag- ing women into a profession which is already quite full enough. It is the purpose simply to pro- vide the rudimentary knowledge STATEMENT OF THE OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT, CIRCULATION, ETC., REQUIRED BY THE ACT OF CONGRESS OF AUGUST 24, 1912, Of...Winnetka Weekly Talk.. .published (Insert title of publication.) ....weekly....at....

Perhaps there would be fewer! with RUDOLPH VALENTINO < fountain Square % PrP vAN STON to help you build a good time are just as important in sport as they are on a 'job'. Whether you lean to the scientific or the simple, makes little difference, we can outfit your team or you and a pal. We sup- ply uniforms and every- thing for a regular dia- mond--rule books and all. Or, if you only want some spare time fun you ought to have the regulation tools, good bats, mitts and balls. Look 'em up-- maybe the old ones aren't so good anymore. The sticks you put away reluctantly last fall are probably not the sticks you think they are! But the greens are getting greener every day. We have some profession- al irons and choice wood stuff. You're welcome to heft or try in your stance. Some nifty bags, too, and fresh stock balls. Better come in and see for your- self. If you have ever played tennis or had any notion you would like to, you will be keen for it when you grip and swing the rackets we will show you. And the more you know about the game the more you enjoy looking over our lines. Of course we have all the rest of the fixin's--new stock. --and catching the fish are two different things. If you just like to sit in the sun all day, why pretend to fish? But, if it's fish you want, you need the sort of rods, reels, baits or flies we will show you. We're surprised ourselves at the great variety of lures and hooks, but each has its use--as we'll cheerfully explain. Camp if you like-- but, be comfortable too! You may think you want to get away from everything civilized, but too simple an outfit may spoil all the anticipated pleasure. Let us show you camps and camp-makings that are their own mmsurance of comfort. Every year there are new things, improvements, patents; new joys--they come here, always. Lastly--and most assur- edly you'll want == LI to record your triumphs and your trials, the scenes of your out- ings, your visitors. The collection of snap shots carries you from one vacation to the next. Besides there are lots of times you've wished you had a camera along, aren't there? Let us show you the after-the-war models or stock you up with film rolls or packs, plates--clean, fresh, sure-picture materials. J BEexroomex(( pl
