- i » October 17, 1925 WINNETKA TALK 41 Reynolds Do Great Work; But are Hit by Chinese Famine At a recent luncheon in Chicago, some members of the Winnetka Con- gregational church were delighted to meet some world travelers returned from the Orient, and have them say that the mission station in Shansi, China, where Rev. and Mrs. Paul R. Reynolds, Winnetka church mission- aries are located, is about the best organized and most business-like and efficient station they had found any- where. They were especially enthu- siastic about the work Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds are doing and about the elevated spirit of the whole place. The only disturbing report was that both Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds are under weight. This is because there has been a famine in the region and they did not feel they could eat nourishing food while others were starving. Pressure, however, has been brought to bear upon them to take care of themselves in view of the great value they have to the work. When asked about their children, Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds re- sponded that they have a flock of eight white goats to furnish the little ones with milk. Country Day Vacation Fair Is Huge Success Rain failed to drive away the crowds which attended the annual Vacation fair, held at the North Shore Country Day school last Friday afternoon and pupils of the school declared this week that it was a great success.

The fair was staged entirely by the pupils themselves with the co- operation of the faculty, and was an exhibit of vacation activities.
