There is need for a clinic in the town- ship, it is believed by the board, which bases its belief on the reports of the medical examiner and nurses who are acquainted with the situation. In a dental clinic the work is done for a nominal sum by an association of dent- ists in the community, a system, proved by tests to bring excellent results. Wil- mette dentists, it was reported, are strongly in favor of the plan 'which is now operating successfully in Eyanston, Winnetka, and other communities. It was decided to present the plan to the public as the first step toward making it a reality. The health center hopes, through the courtesy of the Vil- lage Theatre, to run several explanatory films showing what a clinic would mean and accomplish. Members of the Health Center haaed rs. John A. Hoffman, chairman, Mrs. Wendelin P. Seng, vice-chairman, Mrs. Carl Widney, secretary and Mrs. A. W. Boylston, treasurer. The meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Morton L. Paterson, 925 Chestnut avenue. In con- ference with these officers and Mrs. Paterson were Mrs. Charles N. Hurl- but and Mrs. John Clark Baker, of Wil- mette, Mrs. Lloyd Clark Ayres of West Lake avenue and Mrs. W. N. Gillette of Winnetka, all members of the board, and Mrs. John Hicks, representing the Kenilworth Neighbors, Mrs. Louis Gillson of the Wilmette Woman's club, Mrs. Charles Eldridge of the Economy Shop committee, Miss Norcross, the Health Center nurse, Mrs. Northam of the Wilmette Associated Charities, Mrs. Thurston, township supervisor, and Miss Jane Hufford, publicity secretary of the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute which helps to support the Health center. : At this mcating sales of Christmas Seal stamps were reported to have totaled $1,200, divided as follows : Wil- mette (including Grosse Point and dis- trict schools) $800, Winnetka, $340, and Kenilworth $65. SOME COMMON RULES MOTORISTS VIOLATE Many of the motor traffic regulations for suburban towns north of Chicago as far as Lake Forest are not observed by some drivers, probably through ignor- ance of the existence of such regula- tions, it is reported. One of the commoner rules which is unobserved as noted in the Motorists' Hand Book, published by the Noryh Shore Motor club for 1923, is "Traffic emergency repair, ambulance and United States mail vehicles have the right of way in any street and through any procession." In passing other vehicles, "Pass to the left when overtaking another ve- hicle, unless it is in the street car track, when it must be passed on the right." "It is unlawful for any person to drive a vehicle out of an alley onto a public thoroughfare without first coming to a full stop before driving the vehicle across the sidewalk or crossing inter- secting the alley entrance." When used cars are sold, "a license number cannot be transferred from one person to another. Plates must be re- moved by the vendor when motor ve- hicle is sold and report of sale must be made on proper blank." Has North Shore District for Big Insurance Company W. J. Cunningham, 443 Linden street," Winnetka, has been appointed north shore representative of the New York! Life Insurance .company. His terri-! tory is to extend from Evanston to Waukegan, inclusive. Mr. Cunning- ham is well known on the north shore and is expressing gratification over the fact that he has been assigned a field in his home community. OPEN HOSPITAL WING IN JULY St. Francis Staff, Sponsors In Banquet Maternity wing of St. Francis hos- pital, Evanston, now under construc- tion, will be completed and occupied by July 1, Rev. Frederick M. Lynck, chaplain of the hospital told members of the staff at a banquet tendered them by the sisters of the Order of St. Francis at the nurses' home last week. The four story and basement addi- tion to the south of the hospital, un- der construction since July 1, 1923, is rapidly being completed, Father Lynck told the banqueters. The wing, which is 50 by 160 feet, is to cost $400,000 when finished. A review of the work in 1923 at the hospital was given by Father Lynck. The roof of the new addition was finished by November 1, as the contractors contract specified, and since that time most of the building operations have been in the interior of the structure. Plans for an out-patient, charity de- partment in the new annex are being formulated by the sisters, Father Lynck stated. The 100 beds that will be available when this part of the hos- pital is finished make it possible to open a charity ward. Dr. I. H.
