WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 1923 POT-COPPER IN WINNETKA Adam Scott: Piss Possesses Soul of a Poet When Adam Scott joined the Win- netka police force the chief knew that he was getting a tall rangy man who looked as though he might make a first class patrolman. What he didn't know was that he was getting a poet and a song writer into the bargain. For that is what Scott is in addi- tion to be being a guardian cf the peace. Scott has traveled a lot in his life time. When he was fourteen years old he left his Scottish home to sail before the mast. Later in his life he continued his roving hab- its. In almost every country, work- ing at almost every job, Scott has "lived." Consequently he has a wealth of experiences that call upon his muse. Scott's latest production is a song concerning Ireland in which he brings in peoples of several nationalities. Within the last week he has received a copyright on his song from the government at Washington and has turned it over to a production com- pany. Scott has also composed other songs, some of which have served considerable "hits." He thinks that his best piece of work is a poem which he calls "The Copper." The material for this: poem was drawn from his Winnetka experiences. "FIGHTING ALONE" IS MEN'S CLASS SUBJECT The Men's Sunday Morning class at Community House tomorrow comes, in its study of the life of Christ, to the hours between the Last Supper and the Trials. These are the hours on Gethsemane, the hours of complete isolation, face to face with the issues of His mission. "How few men there are who can wrestle out their battles alone," reads an advance notice of Sunday's class session. "Most of us seek the crowd; we follow the crowd. If we are not afraid to be alone with the awful is- sues of life we at least prefer com- pany. Spiritually we have never out- grown childhood's fear of the dark which isolates us. "But here was one who not only did not shun but who actually sought solitude friendly for in it he at least was sure to find God." The Men's Sunday Morning class meets each week at 9:30 o'clock in the Neighborhood room at Commun- ity House.
