20) WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1923 SE, FINE PLAY AT HIGH SCHOOL "Little Women" Wins Large Audiences One of the best plays, if not the very best, ¢ver produced by the New Trier High School Dramatic club, was "Lit- tle Women," given Friday and Satur- day nights of last week at the school auditorium. In every way it was ex- cellently done, particularly in the act- ing of the characters and the setting of the stage. The play was adapted irom the well- known story of the same name by Louisa M. Alcott, and contained all the principal characters of the book. Many of the students who acted the parts of these characters had never before taken part in a play, yet their work was meri- torious along with that of the more experienced members of the cast. Through the aid of certain residents of the township, who loaned furniture, properties, and costumes, the art staff was able to make the scenes contorm very accurately to the Civil War period, at which time the action of the play took place. ; Most people are well acquainted with the plot of "Little Women," which cen- ters about the March family. The father of this happy group was in the and Mrs. March and the four army, ; } Little Women were left at home in Concord, Massachusetts. 'The parts of Mr. and Mrs. March were played by Walter Brown and Mary Harris. Mar- jorie Miller did especially well as Jo, while Elizabeth Kerr, as Meg: and ithel Hale, as Beth, also rendered their parts well. : A very hne Professor Bachr, who spoke broken English and wore a goatee, was impersonated by Edwin IFelke. The part of Laurie was taken by Edward Kracke, and that of John Brooke by Moncure Paynter. Between the acts several numbers were played by the New Trier Sym- phony orchestra of forty pieces. LAMP EXCHANGE COST REDUCED THIS WEEK In recognition of the growing de- mand on the part of its customers for a greater volume of illumination the 'Public Service Company 'of Northern! Illinois, effective November 19, made a notable reduction to its customers in the matter of lamp exchanges. * Under this plan the company fur- mnishes to all new customers the original installation of such number of sixty watt lamps as the customer may desire and likewise replaces burned out lamps 'to all existing customers taking the 'general lighting service with sixty watt size, free of charge. At the same time the customer is af- forded the opportunity, if he so desires, 'in the interest of more adequate illumi- nation, to get a larger lamp while those of smaller size than sixty watt will be furnished for installation and renewal | purposes at a greatly reduced price. Schedules showing the new prices are available at the company's office and ex- change stations of the company through- out its territory, The new policy governing incandes- cent lamps is the outcome of a problem that the company has been working on tor some time, and hence, it may be said, marks a new milestone in the history ot its desires to render a most adequate service at the lowest practicable cost.

Six hundred men and women stu- dents at Northwestern university on the Ivanston campus are working their way through school this year, according to figures released by university officials. Fifty percent of the men on the campus are employed in part time jobs and 20 percent of this gronp depend entirely on their own earnings to pay their way through school. Many are employed on the north shore. The range of work being done by these men is wide. Besides clerking and waiting on tables the students are doing housework, washing dishes, clean- ing windows, driving cars and acting as chauffeurs. Other occupations in- clude those of night watchman, motor- man, tutors, hotel clerks, and switch- board operators. Now, as to the girl student, the old fashioned college girl, who regarded work outside the curriculum as demean- ing is rapidly disappearing from the universities. A new type of girl is taking + her place. This new girl, and her name is legion, has found her way into larger universities and has clearly established herself. Good wages have done considerable to swell the ranks of the college work- ing girl and have led her into many unique vocational pursuits during her scholastic residence at the university, the girls say. Maid service in the homes of Kvans- ton families is one of the more popular positions that wany Northwestern girls have accepted. Taking care of little children during the afternoon hours is another job in which a number of girls are engaged. Secretarial work also has a strong bid for favor among the young women students and not a few are working in the capacity of clerks and stenographers in an Iivanston business office.

When you lace up a Cantilever, the flexible arch draws up and fits the under- curve of the foot--gently supporting the arch structure while allowing it to function freely. This also holds the foot firmly in the heel seat and prevents it from slipping forward. The flexible arch permits healthful exercise of the entire foot, thereby strengthening the foot muscles and promoting freer circulation. The expert workmanship on Cant- ilevers and the skillful process ot putting on the flexible soles is the re- sult of years of study and experience. The Cantilever factories are devoted exclusively to this one type of shoe-- the flexible shank shoe. Making-- and fitting--comfort shoes, is a pro- fession.
