WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MARCH 1, 1924 MAIER CONCERT ON WEDNESDAY Widespread Interest in Mus- ical Event Widespread interest is evident this week in the concert to be given at New Trier High school auditorium on Wednesday, March 5, by Guy Maier, as a benefit for the high school orchestra. Promise of one of the most deli~ht- ful musical events of the season is given in Mr. Maier's initial appear- ance on the north shore. He is known to music lovers of the communities for his splendid work with the Chicago Symphony orchestra and in concerts before voung peop'~ in various cities of the East and Middle West. His program next Wednesday is to be adapted to the interest alike of young and old. _ "New Trier Township High school is becoming more and more not only a social center but a center as well for the artistic activities of the north shore," says one of the sponsors of the Maier concert. "Its splendid audi- torium with a seating capacity of 1,000, makes possible the best musical and literary programs at a moderate price." "A feature of the high school life of which all north shore residents should be very proud is the high school orchestra. These young music- ians have a seriousness of purpose. tone musicianship and have achieved a remarkably high standard of work. Like all organizations of this char- acter, the work is sometimes handi- capped by lack of funds. At present the need for new instruments is most imminent. This group of youthful musicians is one of the valuable assets of the north shore. Let us boost it as enthusiastically as we do our splen- did athletes."

"Bob's Shack" Scores a Big Hit at Our Sanctum "Bob's Shack" drove up before the WINNETKA TALK offices one day this week and succeeded in demoralizing the smoothly functioning editorial sanctum for a space of fifteen minutes while | the entire staff of Lloyd Hollister, Inc.,! engaged in a scrutinizing and critical investigation. ! "Bob" is the genial person one sees | charging through the traffic of the vil- lage in the interest of the Winnetka Coal-Lumber company. His real name, of course, is Robert Howard and the "shack" referred to in the above is a neat English design residence erected on the chassis of the common, garden vari- ety of Ford. You no doubt have seen the attractive miniature home on wheels. This is to explain why and what it is. The ma- terials used in the miniature are handled by the Winnetka Coal-Lumber company. | Country Day Teachers Attend Educator Meet Tuesday of this week the classes at North Shore Country Day school were shortened in order that school could be closed at noon, and all Thursday classes in the Upper school were post- poned to Saturday morning that the faculty might be free to attend meet- | ings of the National Educational As- sociation convention in Chicago.
