Read All the Want-Ads MISS JOSEPHINE LANDON IS SUMMONED BY DEATH Miss H. Josephine Landon passed away at the home of her sister, Mrs. William M. Hoyt, Winnetka, Monday evening, April 28, after a long illness. The family returned from Green Cove Springs, Florida, their winter home, on Saturday, April 26. Miss Landon was born in Benton, Lake county, Ill, November 2, 1848 and had been one of the William M. Hoyt family for over 60 years. She had been closely identified with the religious, social and literary ac- tivities of the north shore all her life and was one of the charter members of the Skokie and Indian Hill Golf clubs. She was also a member of the Fri- day club of Chicago and of the Win- netka Woman's club. Miss Landon was a graduate of Rockford college in the class of 1861. "Her active interest in the religious and charity work of Christ church, Winnetka, and of St. Mary's church in Green Cove Springs, Fla." writes one who was close to Miss Landon in her work, "was a source of inspiration to all with whom she came in contact. She had the Jane Addams spirit and | spent her long life in helping to make others happy. She is deeply mourned by her loving family and friends." The funeral services were held from Christ church on Wednesday, April 30. Burial was at Graceland.

Attic Puppets Appear at Country Day Next Monday The Attic Puppets gave a very enter- taining program before the children of the Greeley school last Tuesday, and also appeared before the pupils of the Hubbard Woods school. The Country Day school will be visited Monday, and reports from the other schocls indicate North Shore will have a grand time. For the past several years the women of Winnetka have interested themselves in manipulating the puppets, and through constant practice, have attained a re- markable degree of perfection. The children never fail to take to this novel entertainment, and it is gaining in popu- larity every season.
