WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1925 13 Winnetka Women GiveGreat Pleasure to Large Groups BOUT 60 Park Ridge School girls were made happy by the picnic which the Winnetka com- mittee of the Ravinia ciub gave them Thursday afternoon, July 9, at the Park. Busses were used to take the girls to Ravinia where they were served with box luncheons put up by members of the committee. Among those who had a special part in the day's plans were Mrs. I. K. Friedman, who provided milk for the guests, Mrs. Archibald W. Shaw, who furnished the ice cream cones and candy, and Mrs. Edward Forman and Mrs. War- ren Crawford, who provided entrance tickets to the Park for about 23 girls who were over 12 years of age. After lunch the girls heard the afternoon concert and entertainment. The guests of the Winnetka committee were privileged to hear the rehearsal of the opera "Pagliacci," which was sung Friday night. Giovanni Mar- tinelli, the tenor, who starred in "Pag- liacci," is living for the summer in the Winnetka home of Victor Elting at 830 'Mt. Pleasant court. A group of about 20 children and less than half as many mothers from the Northwestern university settle- ment were made happy last Tuesday afternoon by a picnic given them by five Winnetka women. The hostesses for the afternoon were Mrs. A. Bal- lard Bradley, who was in charge of the affair, Mrs. Douglas Smith, Mrs. James W. Prindiville, Mrs. Robert C. Biddle, and Mrs. Buckingham Chand- ler. Since the first part of the day was unpleasant, the children were taken to Community House, where they ate their lunches in the gym- nasium. Karly in the afternoon the weather cleared, so the picnic was transferred to the beach of Mrs. Doug- las Smith's home on Sheridan road. The hostesses wish to thank Commu- nity House for the use of the gym- nasium during the early part of the day when the inclemency of the weather prevented the party from go- ing outside. Members of the Woman's Guild of Christ church were hostesses to about 50 children of Chase House, who came out in a special car Thursday of last week to spend the day in Winnetka. They were served with luncheon in the Parish House, and were taken for automobile rides along the north shore in the afternoon, returning to the city about 4 o'clock. Mrs. Frank D. Fulton was chairman of the committee in charge which consisted of Mrs. God- frey Atkin, Mrs. Lloyd, Mrs. Charles Jackson. Mrs. Harry "Street, Mrs. Ralph Hobart, Mrs. C. S. Ostrom, Mrs. John Cobb, and Mrs. George Frazer. Mrs. Ralph G.
