WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1922 BUSSES TAKE PUPLS 10 CHURCH CLASSE Provide Conveyance to Com- munity House Parents who are planning to send their small children to the Congrega- tional Church school will be delight- ed to know that arrangements have been made for the use of the public school motor busses, for transpor- tation both to and from Community House, where the sessions of the school are held. These busses are weatherproof and in charge of the same drivers who have proven their careful interest in the daily trips to the Skokie school. The capacity of each bus is about 28 children, so there will be room only for children up to the fourth grade who are at least able to walk over the longer distances. Even then the busses will no doubt be crowded, and parents who have automobiles are asked to transport their own children at least until it can be as- certained how many children there are who must depend upon the busses for transportation. The routes for Sunday are as fol- lows: From and to the Northwest Starts at 8:45 North on Center street and Linden street to Scott avenue. At 8:55 West on Scott avenue to Vernon street, South on Vernon street to North avenue. At 9:05 East on avenue. At 9:10 South on Burr avenue and Rose- wood avenue to Elm street. At 9:15 East on Elm street to Lincoln ave- nue to Church. North avenue to Burr From and to the Southeast Starts at 8:45 South on Linden avenue to Hill road. At 8:50 East on Hill road to Ridge road. South on Ridge road to Winnetka | avenue. East on Winnetka avenue to Wood- land avenue. At 9:00 North on Woodland avenue to Wil- low street. East on Willow street to Walnut street. At 9:10 North on Walnut street to Elm East on Elm street to Lincoln ave- nue to Church. street. These routes and time schedules are experimental and subject to change on following Sundays, due announcement of which will be made. Children are asked to gather at street corners along the route on the right hand side of the bas. Busses cannot wait beyond the time indicat- ed. Return trips will be made over the same routes, leaving the Church school at 10:50 o'clock. Oak-Ridge Park Tract Received Final Touches The Oak street and Ridge avenue street intersection, south of the Elm street station of the Chicago and Northwestern railroad and west of the right-of-way, assumed an attrac- tive appearance this week when workmen »completed the grading and planting of shrubs on the triangu- lar property formerly known as the Roach tract. The plot is adjacent to the Winnet- ka Free Public library and completes the park scheme at the important in- tersection. COMMUNITY HOUSE WORK BEGINS OCT. 1 (Continued from Page 1) Talk.

The auxiliary at its first meeting of the new club year this week voted $50 toward providing "books for blind veterans." This sum is a portion of the receipts of "a recent card party attended by many north shore women and which netted the auxiliary a neat fund for its hospitalization and other relief work. The first appeal for "books for blind veterans" was published in The Lake Shore News early in August. Many telephone calls followed the appeal and written communications bore the suggestion that women's organizations in this vicinity refrain from the dis- tribution of prizes to members for a brief period and convert funds accu- mulated into a fund for "books for blind veterans." "The expense of press-made books for the blind is almost prohibitive," according to Red Cross officials. "The appropriation from Congress is com- paratively small, so volunteer Braille transcribers are needed." Funds for "books for blind veter ans" are to be directed to the Chi- cago Chapter, American Red Cross, 58 E. Washington street, Chicago.
