WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1925 | li 'COMMANDMENTS FILM AT CENTER Carries Distinct Message, Leader Declares "The Ten Commandments," con- sidered by many the greatest motion picture ever produced, will be shown at Community House Thursday, Fri- day, and Saturday. Three perform- ances will be given daily--a matinee and two evening showings. In discussing "The Ten Command- ments," the Rev. Dr. Chester C. Mar- shall wrote recently in "The Educa- tional Screen": "When it was reported many months ago that a commercial company was filming "The Ten Commandments" many of us felt that this was apt to be something of a travesty on one of the sublimest and most epochal events of history. "When the picture was first pro- duced in a New York theatre at top- 'notch prices, I attended with a group of clergymen as guests of the man- agement, expecting to see a great spectacle, and also prepared to see violence done to the real spirit of the _ Decalogue and of the mehod by which the law was given to man. Frankly, I may say, we were a crit- jcal group. "If one message above another is rieeded by our pleasure loving, law breaking age, this picture brings just that message." "Reality" to be Subject at Christian Science Church The lesson-sermon at the First Church of Christ, Scientist, on Sun- day morning, September 27, will be "Reality." Services are held in the Masonic temple at 708 Elm street at 11 o'clock. and the testimonial meeting is held on Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock. * Sunday school convenes at 9:35 o'clock. Elizabeth Boyden, 725 Pine street, has entered her first year at Smith. Oldtimers and Sheiks Mix in Baseball Tilt Last Sunday the fans who have so loyally supported the Winnetka base- ball team through the summer--wheth- er on top or going down to defeat-- were disappointed in not having the visiting team show up. A comedy game was speedily ar- ranged and comedy prevailed through- out seven innings of alleged baseball. Some of the old timers in the game were there and a few of the common garden variety who took a chance in not having their stay-combed hair blown out of line, or having their ma- nicured nails begrimed by the dust of battle. Mr. Howe, an old timer, was the outstanding figure of the battle. Otherwise the game was one of com- plete comedy. Next Sunday, Winnetka meets the St. Mary's college of Wau- kegan, and for the following Sunday a game is being arranged between Mr. Howe's Gladiators and the regular Winnetka Bucks. The later game is to be the last of the year. 88 Candidates Out For Skokie Football Squads The football season opened this week at Skokie school with 88 candidates out for positions on the various teams.

One who keeps a check book can look back one year or several, and see how much income he received; and where every dollar of it went. If he wants to know how much it cost to shingle or paint the house, or to put in a new furnace years ago, the check stub or canceled check tells the story. Or if he wants to look up his taxes of former years, the record is in his check book. The canceled check also tells the exact date upon which a payment was made, and who received the money and acknowledged it with his endorsement. It is common custom to write up- on checks what the payment is for, and "in full of account" if such is the case. When one wants to classify all his expenditures under different heads, he can do it by reference to the old check books. With such a record it is easy to make a personal budget. If a tradesman or any other cred- itor insists that a certain item is unpaid, the canceled check bearing his endorsement will settle the argu- ment, The bank depositor who deposits all his income and pays everything, except petty items, by check, writes a record of very great usefulness, --one that enables him to review his financial progress and to plan his future. With canceled checks as proof, many a lawsuit has been forestalled. Canceled checks are convincing evi- dence in a court of law. When one makes out his income tax reports, his check stubs are a complete record of income; also of his exemptions by way of interest and taxes paid. And there's another record--most important. One the Bank's ledger is the record of the depositor's fin- ancial progress, and of the ac- customed balances he has main- tained. These are the first figures his banker will consult should the de- positor want a loan. Everyone who can always main- tain a reasonable abalance should have a checking account. Paying with currency often leaves no record, no means of tracing. Even memory is fickle when it tries to trace the flight of currency. The bank check is the sure re- corder of money transactions.
