hd WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1924 17 SHOP FEATURES PARIS MODELS Courtesy Shoppe Comes to Evanston A smart gown shop from Rue de Rivoli, Paris, has literally been trans- ported to Davis street, Evanston. The Courtesy Shoppe at 508 Davis street has succeeded in making connections with several Paris and Vienna houses that will enable them to buy direct from abroad and offer to the women of the north shore who like beautiful wearing apparel an assortment 'of gowns and sport wear that will please the most exacting, it is said. Their first shipments, which have just ar- rived, include the newest hand made models in French evening gowns, French, Austrian and Belgian cotton and silk dresses for morning and afternoon wear, and extra smart sport attire from Paris and Vienna. Mod- els which were worn at the races last month at Longchamps, the gathering place for the smartest dressed women m the world, are now being shown by the Courtesy Shoppe, it is announced. The policy of the Courtesy Shoppe will be to bring into this country a type of dress which cannot be dup- licated by American manufacturers because of the large amount of hand- work, the proprietors explain, and "on account of our connections which en- ables us to buy direct from foreign houses, we are in a position to offer these garments at a prices considerab- ly lower than similar gowns would command in down town shops." The majority of the sport wear shown and sold at the Courtesy Shoppe is made in Vienna. The garments which are hand made are proving very popular because of their great originality of color and design. A line of novelties and gifts including the petit point work, beaded bags, and vanity cases have also been brought over. NEW LINKS DRAW RECORD ENTRIES Northwestern Has a Great Opening Day The opening to the public of the Northwestern Golf club, in the Forest Preserve at Harms road and Emerson street, was a great success. Much in- terest was evidenced in the several tournament events. No extra charge was made, as the greens fee entitled anyone to enter any one of the sev- eral events. The course was in fine shape, and the regular greens were played. There were prizes for the members of the Northwestern club and also for the public. The advantage of a member- ship in the club is that it gives one the privilege of reserving playing turn for a foursome one week in advance. The winners at the opening tour- nament were as follows: Grand Scramble contest. Gross score for members. Won by H. B. Hemb, Wilmette; Chas. H. Sammis, Evanston, second; J. R. McClure, Wil- mette, third. Grand Scramble contest. Gross score for non-members. Won by W. Miller; Kelsey Sanders, Wilmette, second; A. B. Gurnes, Chicago, third. Consolation prize. Gross score.

Straw Hat Derby Will Feature Motor Races "Curley" Young, the smiling lad who has won Chicago dirt track en- thusiasts by his persistency and his recent notable triumphs, will be a leading entrant in the "Straw Hat Derby" at the North Shore Polo club speedway, Lincoln avenue and Peter- son road, on Sunday, June 15. The same program which was scheduled for last Sunday, and which was called off on account of rain, will be staged this week. This includes the ten-mile match race between the speed kings, Cliff Woodbury and Fuzzy Davidson, the two ten-mile eliminations for the "Derby" and the five-mile consolation. George Beck, the driver-promoter, who gave Woodbury a terrific duel in the 50-mile race until forced to retire because of a break in his car, is another favorite in the "Derby." For a time it looked as if Beck and Woodbury would fight it out to the finish, but Cliff, pausing twice at the pit, lost his advantage, by which "Curley" Young was auick to profit. Others who will be in the big event are Eddic Heockier, a north side fav- orite; Harry Van in a Zepp Special, C. E. Currey in a Ford, Frank Nich- ols in a Becker-Whitney Special, Har- ry Root in a Jajo Ford and E. Fos- naugh in a Lyons Motor Special. The last five finished in the money in the 50-mile race last week. Special Rail Service to National Park Area Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, in his lat- est book "Our Second American Ad- venture," devotes one entire chapter to Jasper National park, the largest nation- al park in America, located in the heart of the Canadian Rockies. Sir Arthur characterizes his visit to Jasper as "a wonderful educational experience," to which Lady Conan Doyle adds the in- teresting statement that "Japser is the only place where Sir Arthur ever rests." In Jasper National park is the famous Jasper Park Lodge, which claims the traveler's enthusiasm because it so com- pletely harmonizes with its rugged sur- 519 Davis Street Announcing The OPENING OF THE NEW NORTH SHORE JORDAN SALES ROOM Branch Cornell Motors Evanston 2127 roundings and still affords the most modern convenience.
