WEISSENBERG Phone 12 Drake Orchestra to Play at Benefit Dance N Saturday, May 9, one of the gayest dances of the season will be given at the Winnetka Woman's club, by a few of the Win- netka alumnae of Bryn Mawr college for the benefit of the present drive of that college to maintain the music department by a special endowment and build an auditorium. There is no hall at Bryn Mawr now, in which the whole student body may gather together due to the recent stringent enforcement of the Pennsylvania fire laws. The Drake orchestra, renowned all over the country, has been engaged for the evening. It is one of the finest dance orchestras that can be obtained, and Winnetka people are indeed fortunate to have this rare opportunity not only to hear, but to dance to this music. There will be a few bridge tables provided for those who do not care to dance. The list of patronesses follows: Mrs. Laird Bell, Mrs. Darrell S. Boyd, Mrs. Preston Boyden, Mrs. Nathaniel Blatchford, Mrs. Richard S. Bull, Mrs. John W. Brown, Mrs. Robert Brown, Mrs. Goddard Cheney, Miss Lois Coffin, Mrs. J. F. Damman, Mrs. Mal- colm Fleming, Miss Natalie Gookin, Mrs. Samuel A. Greeley, Mrs. Sydney Haskel, Mrs. William B. Hale, Mrs. William G. Hibbard, Mrs. Sebastian Hinton, the Misses Houghteling, Mrs. Richard P. Matthiessen, Miss Virginia Miller, Mrs. Philip W. Moore, Miss Louise Otis, Mrs. James Porter, Mrs. John R. Reilly, Mrs. Gilbert Scribner, Mrs. Henry Tenney, Miss Margaret Ullman, and the Misses Von Hofsten. Arden Shore Issues Homecoming Invitation HE annual Homecoming Day celebration will be held at Arden Shore Camp, Lake Bluff, on Sunday, May 3, and the board of directors invites all friends of Arden Shore to visit the camp on that day. There will be a short program at 3 o'clock, consisting of music by the Great Lakes orchestra and the New Trier Girls Glee club, an informal talk by Perry Dunlap Smith, headmaster of the Win- netka Country Day school, and camp songs by the boys.

Ed- win Earle, Herman Hopkins, Andrew Mitchell, Paul Sullivan, James Pfeif- fer, Austin Jenner, John Metcalf, Law- rence Onderdonk, George Perrigo, Dean Hole, Walter Neilson, Stuart Weston, Ralph Renwick, Stephen 'Birch, Melville Chatten, Heyn Lee Hooper, Randolph Buck, Harold Wil- der, Arthur Cushman, Lewis Williams, Roger Ballard, John Roach, Robert Brown, William Van Horne, Keith Estelle, George McConnell, Robert Laird, Samuel McCaulley, Arthur Ro- berg, Willard Lochridge, Samuel Rice, Dorr Price, Howard Walsh, Harry Street, Arthur Woodward, and Miss Elizabeth Greeley. ay Next Wednesday, May 6, sees the close of another successful year for the Woman's society of the Congrega- tional church. Luncheon will be served at one o'clock, and will be followed ~-- a "Surnise Prooram." News of he work done, and plans for the year to come, will be presented in a way to interest everyone. Every member is asked to reserve the date, Wednesday, May 6, 1 o'clock. Women who have not yet become members will find this an opportune 'ime to join. Their names will then be entered on the roll in the new year book, which is to be published during the summer. There are now about 375 members; and the enterprise and vigor of the plans for next year will command the attention of all women who like to be in a "going" concern. paler With the closing of Indian Hill club, a little earlier perhaps, than the weather itself necessitated, came the announcement that the hospitable doors were closing to permit exten- sive remodeling and redecorating. For several months the interior of the club has been undergoing a process of ren- ovation, and we have been told that the decoration of the interior, the work of Ernst von Ammon, is most artistic. From recent reports all is about in readiness for the opening, for on Thursday morning Mr. von Ammon was at the club putting the finishing touches on furniture and appoint- ments. Gai Mrs. Lucy Graves and her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Bartholomay, have taken the L. B. Sherman home at 575 Sheridan road for the summer months during the ab- sence of its occupants who are sailing May 16, for a summer abroad. Mrs. Graves has purchased a home on Wal- nut street, near Willow, and the Bar- tholomays are building at the corner of Maple and Cedar streets. ter Mrs. Paul of 824 Humboldt avenue, who suffered a fall a few weeks ago, and who has been confined to St. Francis hospital, has returned to her home and is convalescing rapidly. The Grove House White Elephant Sale which has been an annual event, to which Winnetkans and residents of other north shore villages have always contributed most generously, has been given up for this year. The Grove House board, however, is cooperating this season with Thrift House and other Evanston charities, in holding a rummage sale at Thrift House through- out the month of May. Winnetka members of the Grove House board are busily engaged in collecting goods of all kinds, and will be only too glad to communicate with anyone wishing to contribute clothing, furniture, and household goods and miscellaneous articles which may be "white elephants to their owners, but the sale of which will aid in bringing help to the unfor- tunate. Those desiring to donate, are requested either to send articles to Mrs. Hathaway Watson's garage, to Thrift House, or communicate with Mrs. Watson and she will arrange for conveyance of the goods, if necessary. Contributors are asked to make nota- tion that articles are for Grove House. The Winnetka members of the Grove House board working for the month's sale are: Mrs. Hathaway Wat- son, president of the board; Mrs. Frederick Scott, Mrs. John Stuart, Mrs. Francis Butler, Mrs. Calvin Fen- tress, Mrs. Cuthbert Adams, Mrs. Arthur Tuttle, Mrs. Victor Elting, Mrs. Morris Wilson, and Mrs. Frank Blatchford. Grove House will be grateful for any contributions. --_--Q-- "Neighbors' Night" was happily cele- brated last Wednesday evening at the Congregational church. The Rudolph Matz 'hall was transformed from its usual appearance as a "movie hall," and with oriental rugs, flowers, lamps, and green trimmings, made a delight- ful reception room for the 200 or more who dropped in for the evening. In- formal conversation was interspersed with music by the church chorus, which sang two numbers, and the chimes played by Ludwig Martin. James Fentress gave a group of Negro songs and melodies, remembered from boy- hood days spent in the South, and Mil- ton Higgins gave a reading in his own vivid way. Refreshments served by the deaconesses added to the pleasure of the evening; and the spirit of good- fellowship made this second annual "Neighbors' Night" a great success. o= "The 'Stitch in Time' club of the Congregational church is ready to do your plain work or repair those rents and tears of an outrageous fortune! Your part will be to call Winnetka 250, stating that vou need such help, and then to put such sorrowful gar- ments into bag or basket, and they will be called for and delivered. N. B. All garments must be clean. Profits will swell the the new church building fund." The preceding notice comes from a group of workers anxious to "Fill a Need" while they help in a worth while campaign. Oe Mrs. Jules Girardin, 778 Foxdale ave- nue, has returned from Florida where she has spent several weeks. i
