WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1923 NEW PASTOR FOR GLENCOE CHURCH Dr. George MacAdam Named Resident Pastor of Glencoe North Shore Church GREAT PULPIT ORATOR Preaches Inaugural Sermon This Sunday With the adjournment of the Rock River Conference this week comes the announcement that Dr. George Mac- Adams has been appointed resident pastor of the North Shore Methodist church, located at Greenleaf and Hazel avenues, Glencoe. Dr. MacAdam's fine personality and superior pulpit work are his special qualifications to serve a church like the North Shore. His pastorate with- in Chicago and vicinity has included Ottawa street, Joliet, Epworth Church, Edgewater, Hyde Park and Rogers Park. The last named church edifice was built during his ministry in that place. Dr. MacAdam resigned at this church to accept the presidency of the Fort Worth university, Ft. Worth, Texas. After three years at the uni- versity he accepted the pastorate of the First Methodist church, Madison, Wis. He will soon take up his resi- dence at 600 Vernon avenue. Sunday morning at the 11 o'clock service Dr. MacAdam will preach his inaugural sermon. Forsee Fine Growth The pulpit of the North Shore church has for several years been ably supplied by members of the fa- culty of Garrett Biblical institute at Evanston, but Conference officials concurred in the belief of members of the parish that the time had ar- rived when a permanent and resident pastor be assigned to the church. North Shore church enjoys a mem- bership distributed over Glencoe and a considerable portion of Hubbard Woods. Mr. MacAdam's coming has given promise of an unusually suc- cessful church year and prospects for the futurq growth of the parish are brighter than at any time since the organization of the church. Offers Radio Magazines Free to Winnetka "Bugs" C. H. Affeldt,, proprietor of the Radio Service Shop in Prouty Annex, offers an exceptional opportunity to all those interested in "ethereal com- munication" in the form of a -radio magazine which he will send to any- one who will take the time to submit name and address. Mr. Affeldt receives 100 copies of the magazine each month and will be glad to turn them over to persons in- terested in radio. The copies are free of charge and, in view of the fact that there are only a limited number, application for delivery will have to be made at an early date, he says. The magazine is entitled, "What's in the Air" and is said to contain val- uable information regarding the op- eration of radio sets. Europe Doing Well, Gonsalves Observes Conditions in Europe seem generally quite normal, according to George F. Gonsalves, prominent "Winnetka builder who, with Mrs. Gonsalves, returned this week from a three months' tour on the Continent. In France, Italy, Switzerland and even in Austria, where they stopped for a time at Vienna, the Gonsalves found the people apparently prosper- ous and happy, and there was little evidence of hardship. Vienna was a pleasant surprise, Mr. Gon- salves said, especially in view of the fact that Americans have been led to believe matters there were somewhat comparable to conditions in Germany. Germany is in a deplorable state both economically and politically, Mr. Gonselves said, there being slight chances of improvement in the near future. "We were surprised also to find so much poverty and unrest in England, he said. "Prices are exorbitant there and many people are miserably poor, we observed." The Gonsalves arrived in Boston last Sunday. Their tour was cut short when they received word from Toledo informing them that Mrs. Gonsalves' mother had suffered a broken leg in an accident. Upon ar- riving in this country, Mrs. Gonsalves proceeded immediately to Toledo, while Mr. Gonsalves came to Win- netka. Mrs. Gonsalves brought her mother to Winnetka late this week. DR. BROWN TELLS OF NEW WORK (Continued from Page 1) one of the deaconesses, thought that we had better return to the ship as the sun had set; and such a beautiful sunset it was. "There were more than fifty return- ing missionaries on the ship, with their families, bound for India, Korea, Manil- la, Japan, and various stations in China, all very eager to return; even the chil- dren. Some were teachers, physicians and evangelical workers, all very inter- esting. Encounter Typhoon "After leaving Nagasaki, which is only 24 hours from Shanghai across the China Sea, we ran into a typhoon of which we had no warning. Leaving at ten in the morning, we were well into it at six in the evening. Its furies drove all the passengers to their cabins. Dur- ing the night we drifted for. seven hours and all of the next day we were pitched and tossed about. The captain went out of his course near the Saddle Islands. Late in the evening of the second day, he resumed the course, and we arrived in Shanghai 26 hours late, a very thankful and tired group of people.

Painting and Decorating "Here we were met by our {friends on this side, who gladly welcomed the new and returning workers. A warm welcome by the people and the climate. Such heat I have not experienced. In Japan, the coolies wear only a girdle cloth; those of higher station a light kimono. In China proper, the males wear trousers only; the children are mostly naked. They live in such close quarters; packed like sardines. I have just oozed and tried to get a breath by fanning until yesterday, when a light cool breeze came up to relieve the situa- tion a little. Ice Cream and Cake "We spent only two days in Shanghai and then took the steamer for Hankow. The Yangste river is very large, the scenery very beautiful all along. We were four days and nights coming to Hankow, where we were met by the members of the Mission, taken to the Mission house for tea, and treated to ice cream and cake. "We have to very careful of what we eat; no ice cold drinks, no ice put in our drinks. All water is boiled that we drink and use for brushing our teeth. No salads; no fruits eaten raw, but we do have vegetables and other good food. Describes Hospital "The hospital is moderately new and very well built for taking care of 75 patients, though there are more than that in it now. It is situated in the heart of the city among the Chinese, where it is easy of access within the city wall. "Dr. James is a wonderful woman and has created a splendid atmosphere around the hospital. The workers all admire her tremendously. "I am very much impressed with the management of it all. We breakfast at 7, then go to the chapel for medita- tion for 15 minutes. At 8 o'clock we all assemble on the second floor, where the morning prayers are said and sey- BLACK DIRT and MANURE WINNETKA 1549 M. J.

The wards form a "Y," which makes it possible for all to hear. All of the nurses have been educated in the schools, so that they .ake part in the service. -r« "On Sunday at 7 o'clock in. the morn- ing a Choral Communion service was held, always in Chinese. It" was so interesting to attend, the chapel was filled. Mah-Jongg Gambler's Game "Mah-Jongg is only played here by those who gamble, so those who Hope to influence others by thier living do not play it. There is trouble further up the Yangste from us, and at one time there was here. The country news is unsettled.
