rT EY... WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JANUARY 13, 1923 HOLD CONFERENCES ON RELIGIOUS LIFE Rev. Richards to Conduct Discussions Tuesday evening, January 16, Rev. James A. Richards of the Winnetka Congregational church will open a se- ries of four conferences to be held in the Assembly room of Community House on the general subject of "Per- sonal Religion." The object of the course is two-fold --to train Christians = for personal work and to answer some of the cen- tral questions asked by persons con- templating church membership. On January 16 the discussion will be upon "Personal Work," its place in the religious life, worthy and un- worthy motives in attempting it, and methods of accomplishing it. On Jan- uary 23 the general subject will be the question Who belongs in the Church? This will of course require a discus- sion of the fundamental nature of the Christian life and its relation to creeds and to ethics. On January 30 the gen- eral theme will be the nature of the church and in particular just what sort of a church this is, and on Febuary 6 methods of uniting with the church will be discussed and an effort made to summarize the course. It is planned to make a question box a prominent part of the series and oral questions as well as written will be encouraged. Royal Arcanum News On Monday, January 15, Winnetka Council 1131 of the R.

HEINSEN AND CLARK OPEN MORE OFFICES Heinsen and Clark, a «youthful but substantial real estate firm that sev- eral months ago opened an office in Winnetka, is branching out ambitious- ly, by establishing offices in Wilmette and Chicago. The Wilmette office of the new concern is at 421 Fourth street, in the midst of the justly cele- brated "real estate row." Paul Heinsen, who represents the Heinsen end of the firm, has been en- gaged in north shore real estate ac- tivity for some time. He was former- ly connected with M. E. Barker and company, and later associated with W. J. Moir at Winnetka, which busi- ness he took over some time ago. Clark was associated with McCal- lum and Clark of Evanston prior to : his association with Heinsen. Chicago offices of the firm are to be located at 7 West Madison street.

Lets all start SKOKIE YACHT CLUB PLANS SHIP PAGEANT The Skokie Yacht club, comprising boys of the Skokie school, held its an- nual party Friday evening from 5:30 to 8:30 o'clock at the Skokie school. The party started with a supper prepared in the Domestic laboratory and served by the girl guests of the club. After supper Director of Shopwork Kinney gave a short talk on "How the Skokie Club Can Be Most Helpful to the School," which was followed by a general discussion of the plang for the annual launching to be held the first week in June. This year it is planned to feature the launching of the fleet with a page- ant illustrating the historic develop- ment of water craft. A number of the boys are now working on models of historic ships, which will be used in the pageant, and, if it is found prac- ticable, every boy in the Winnetka schools will be given a chance to make and enter some type of boat. At the conclusion of the discussion the guests were presented with tiny souvenir boats which were used in solving a puzzle propounded by Mr. Kinney. Games were then played until the close of the party. The sewing room in which the par- ty was held was attractively decor- ated with yacht pennants and flags. John West, commodore, and Eames Marble, vice commodore, were in charge of the decorations.
