aT il PS so a Po a n WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 1924 9 WOMAN'S CLUB TO RUN SHOP TO AID BUILDING FUND Local Golf Clubs Plan Games Despite Unfavorable Week NCE more the blame is placed on the weather for changes in golf schedules at the local clubs, two of which are unable to have the events planned for this week. In spite of the weather's uncertainty, however, and in the face of the bureau's prophecy of "more rain," matches are being sched- uled for next week. Skokie will have its regular day Mon- day. That club was particularly for- tunate this week in having a playable course, and from the golf committee comes a report that Mrs. Lerch of Ev- anston had the lowest score on the four short holes, with Mrs. Edgar Stevens taking the least number of putts. On Tuesday North Shore will have a mixed foursome, with the women players inviting their partners. Guest Day was postponed this week until Thursday. Sunset Ridge members will play the qualifying round for the club cham- pionship on Tuesday. Guest Day, which was to have been this week's event, will be scheduled in September,--the exact date not yet having been decided. On August 27, Indian Hill plans for the usual match, the prize being award- ed by choice of partner's score. On August 13 Mrs. H. Spaulding Coffin and Mrs. C. A. Klotz won first plas with Mrs. Robert H. Ripley, sec- ond. At the time of going to press a few players had gone out, but the condition of the sky was not promising for the completion of the Flag tournament.

DAWES REPORT MARKS NEW ERA Educator Says It Means Re- newed Prosperity Not only the reconstruction of Eu- rope but a revival of international amity and prosperity are likely to follow the agreement of the great powers upon the Dawes report, according to Prof. Ken- enth W. Colegrove, associate professor of political science at Northwestern university, who has followed the recent maneuvers in London and Paris care- fully. "The work of the London conference will undoubtedly lead to the long-delay- ed reconstruction of Europe," said Dr. Colegrove. "It was a triumph of liber- al diplomacy and was possible because broad-minded diplomats were in charge of the destinies of the great powers. The militaristic policy of Poincare and the pin-picking negotiations of Curzon gave way to the 'continuous co-operation' of Ramsay MacDonald and Edouard 5Y5% Money Have funds to loan on choice improved North Shore Suburban residence property at 5% % in- terest.

German chancellor and leader of the Center Par- ty, so skillfully presented the plan of the moderate and compromising party of Germany. "Moreover, it should be a matter of pride to Americans that our own diplo- matic representatives at London played a conspicuous part in compromising old and bitter quarrels and in working out formulas which finally were adopted. "The Dawes report was based upon good faith and the London agreements are based on good faith. And, as an evidence of good faith, Premier Herriot already has ordered the evacuation of Offenburg and Appenweier. That was a gesture of generosity not costing France much but promoting a great de- gree of good-feeling.

Walk in Comfort-- it means so much Shoes play an important part im your personal comfort, and comfort means a lot in the pursuit of happi- ness.
