WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1923 SUNDAY CLASS OPENS SEPT. 16 Popular Sunday Morning Sessions to Be Resumed at Community House HAVE FINE PROGRAMS Stanley H. Simpson Heads Organization The Men's Sunday Morning class, which during the past two years has been filling a unique place in Winetka, i§ announcing that the 1923-24 season of the class will begin on Sunday morn- ing, September 16th, at 9:30 o'clock. The class, which meets in the Community House, will inaugurate a somewhat dif- ferent idea in the meetings this winter. There will be weekly discussions of topics of domestic, business or political interest as reflected through the lives of Old Testament Characters. Class leaders, men of prominence in Winnetka, have been selected as discussion leaders for each week. For September 16, the subject for dis- cussion will be Abraham--The Great Emigrant. Mr. Hart E. Baker has been chosen as leader for that subject. At- tention is called to the fact that the at- tendance at these meetings during 1922 was quite large and those who attend this year's discussions are requested to come promptly at 9:30 each Sunday. The officers for the Men's Class of 1923-24 are Stanley H. Simpson, presi- dent; John C. Marshall, vice president; Charles J. Eastman, secretary; and Glen C. Bull, treasurer. You're Wanting to Fly? Here's Your Opportunity Tom Scott, well known north shore promoter of flying exhibitions in this vicinity, announced this week that Sun- day, September 2, would be Flying Day at Winnetka. Airplane exhibitions and a parachute descent will be on the program, and "chances to ride" will be afforded the daring members of the community, at the field at Hibbard road and Willow street. The hours are from 9 A. M. 0.5 P.M. The event is under auspices of the Airplane Service company, located near the Lincoln Tavern, Dempster street, west of Evanston. He Is Selling Eden Washing Machines By the Car-Load John C. Welter, proprietor of the North Shore Electric shop, set a new record for dealers in electric washing | John C. Welter machines, when he received a shipment of a solid car-load of Eden Washing machines this week. This is said to be the largest shipment of electrical wash- ers ever received in Winnetka or by any north shore dealer. About seven years ago Mr. Welter started the North Shore Electric shop and at that time the sale of a washing machine was an event; now we are told of the purchase of an entire car-load which shows the rapid and healthy growth the North Shore Electric shop has enjoyed under the able manage- ment of Mr. Welter. He represents the progressive type of business man and has by dint of hard work and sensible and consistently progressive business methods developed the business into one of the largest and best equipped electrical sup- ply shops on the north shore. "Only the best of Everything Electrical," is a silent motto, adhered to religiously by Mr. Welter. The remarkable development of his business is attributed by Mr. Welter, very largely, to his consistent advertis- ing in the columns of the Winnetka Talk. Zero Attendance Marks Tuesday Public Hearing A public hearing on the proposed change in zoning designation of Center street property between North avenue and Chatfield road, was accorded a zero attendance at the Village hall Tuesday of this week.
