Whether there will be any cause to enforce the measure during the remainder of this season is problematical, but it stands ready to be enforced next winter and may be the means of saving someone from serious injury or death. The sense of the new ordinance is as follows: "That no person shall permit or allow any person to hitch, hook or attach by any rope, wire or other means, any sled to any vehicle within the Village of Winnetka, whether such vehicle is mov- ing or stationary. Whoever violates this section shall be deemed guilty of a mis- demeanor and shall be fined in a sum not less than Five Dollars ($5.00) nor more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00)." | "Spirit" to Be Subject for Christian Scientists!

The question was placed before the meeting by one of the members who argued that the recent war, the attitude of the rising generation and political irregularity all indicated a retrogression in the spiritual qualities and morals of the present day. The response from the floor was almost instantaneous and it was quite WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1925 apparent that there, was no cause for pessimism in this respect. Dr. Edmund D.
