WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1923 WOMEN'S CLUBS ENGAGED IN THE SALE OF CHRISTMAS SEALS Husbands To Be En- lightened as To How HAT and why is a Woman's Club? What do they do any- how ? How does the lady chairman act, and do they all talk at once? These any many other questions have often puzzled the male population, and in their conceit the men have some- times dared to smile when Woman's Club affairs are mentioned. Now they will be shown, and no doubt made ashamed of themselves. The women have been kind enough to in- vite the men, all the husbands and brothers, to a special meeting of the Catholic Woman's club of Wilmette, the evening of Wednesday, December 12, at the Wilmette Women's Club House, at 8:00 P. M. Let the men take note of the time and place, and have no engagements or excuses for this par- ticular evening, for who knows, this may be their one and only chance to see a Woman's Club in action. And they will learn just how to give a Club en- tertainment. Indeed they will be in- debted for a treat of excellent music and perfect hospitality. One of the very best programs has been arranged for their special benefit. Mr. Milan Lusk, a noted violinst and a resident of Wilmette, will be the really big feature of the program. Mr. Lusk has won fame as an artist, and local people will welcome this opportunity te hear him and show their interest and appreciation for one of their own town people who has achieved success. The mere fact that the men will be allowed at a meeting of the Woman's club and have a chance to spend an evening in the brilliant company of the attractive and talented members of this club is enough to make these same men very happy and well satisfied. But the wom- en will not keep all the good things for themselves, so the men will be enter- tained in excellent style. Other artists have been loaned by the Duo-Art Com- pany to embellish this program, and make the evening a noteworthy musical feature. The committee want a very large gathering to greet the men and honor the exceptional artists on this program. It is very important that every member come and bring the men, and give them a great surprise, as well as a good en- tertainment, even if they don't deserve ' it. Stephanie Martin will Open School of Dancing ISS Stephanie Florence Martin, 1102 Grant street, Evanston, will return to America from an ex- tended engagement in Iondon and Paris | where she has been a member of the Miss Stephanie Florence Martin cast of Marian Morgan's classic dance drama "Helen of Troy." Upon her return Miss Martin will open a school of dancing on the North Shore. Active Preparation for Glencoe Fire-Side Sale OR the Fire-side sale to be held December 15, material has been assembled from the Canadian border to Mississippi, from the moun- tains. of Kentucky, from New England to California, from Hungary, and from China. The women of the Nature committer of th: Glencoe Woman's Library club have been at great pains to ga her to- gether chjects that are unusual and not readily obtainable. The idea has been to procure unique remembrances that will carry the Christmas spirit better perhaps than expensive gifts. The sale will be held around the grate firc at Hawthorn school, Glencoe, and an atmosphere of New England and the Olden Times will prevail. The com- mittce has been much more interested mn the social side of the occasion and in the development of quaint and novel ideas tor the enrichment of the home than it has been in the profit to be made. The sale, which will commence at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, will continue until 9 o'clock in the evening. sores exquisite Woman's Glee Club In Recital EDITH MASON IN RECITAL Admirers and friends of Edith Ma- son of the Chicago Opera association The Northwestern University Wom- north shore, while Mr. Lutton has an's Glee club assisted by Mrs. Nor- appeared on many Women's club man Parker, violinist, and Charles | 21d New Trier programs.
