WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 5, 1924 113 Charming Program Given in Evanston for Children HE, Children's afternoon, on Tues- day, July 1, an annual event at the Evanston Woman's club, and al- ways an interesting occasion for young and old, was a most charming event. The program was given by graduates of the National Kindergarten and Elemen- tary college for the Woman's club and its many young guests. Miss Grace Hemingway of Oak Park, of wide experience as a story teller for Miss Grace Hemingway children, having appeared on Chautau- qua programs, at clubs, churches and schools all over the country, told stor- ies in costume. Miss Lillian Lyman of Evanston was most pleasing in her French Doll dance, and the Dance of the Court Jester. The Misses Nellie Ball, Rowena Mulford, Stella Nichol of Chicago, in their well known role of strolling minstrels, sang their jolly songs. At the close of the program, the chil- dren were led to the thought of our na- tional birthday. National music, a flag parade headed by Arthur Turner and Marjorie Helm as Uncle Sam and Col- umbia, brought the young guests to the garden where refeshments were served. Miss FEletta Austin' of the North Western University School of Music was the accompanist of the afternoon. Mrs. Harry G. Phillips, an active member of the North Shore Alumnae association of the college, was hostess for the after- noon, assisted by Mrs. Rollin Pease and Mrs. James Roy Skiles. -- Ov Hampton Ripley will spend the re- mainder of the summer at the Hill School camp, Wolfeboro, New Hamp- shire.

GIVES LINCOLN TALK OVER KYW Congressman Rathbone to Be Heard Wednesday Congressman-at-I.arge Henry R. Rath- bone of Illinois, is to deliver part of his celebrated address on Abraham Lincoln, on Wednesday evening, July 9, at 8:15 o'clock, over KYW, Chicago. Congressman Rathbone is a resident of Kenilworth. This address was originally delivered by Congressman Rathibone on February 12, 1924, before the House of Represent- atives and a distinguished audience in the gallery. It was an unusual honor conferred upon this new member to be chosen unanimously as the Lincoln's Birthday orator of the House. Invita- tions to repeat this address have been pouring in from all over the country and Congressman Rathbone recently spoke on the same subject over the Washington radio. The following com- ment from the Washington Times of February 12, 1924, accurately describes the manner in which his speech was re- ceived by Congress: "Abraham Lincoln was eulogized in the House this afternoon by Congress- man Henry Rathbone of Illinois, whose parents sat in the Presidential box at the old Ford Theatre here on the night Lincoln was shot by Booth. "Prolonged applause followed the Congressman's fifty-minute speech. Pro- ceedings in the House were brought sud- denly to a halt when practically the en- tire membership on the floor at the time rushed toward Rathbone with out- strétched hands extending to him their congratulations on his talk. "Probably no other man in Congress was more qualified to eulogize Lincoln and his talk was therefore of more than usual interest." Chicago Winnetka .
