February 13, 1926 WINNETKA TALK FAMOUS SURGEON WILL ADDRESS LEGIONNAIRES Rehabilitation Work Among Wounded Soldiers to Be Sub- ject at Monday Meeting At the meeting of Winnetka Post | No. 10, American Legion, Monday, | February 15, in Community House, at 8:15 o'clock, Dr. Harry E. Mock of Chi- cago will give a talk, illustrated by stereopticon slides, entitled "Human | Salvages." This talk was first scheduled for January 4, 1926. Dr. Mock came to the meeting on | that date ready to give his address, | but on request of the members of the] Post who felt that on a later date a | greater attendance could be obtained, | he generously agreed to come on a| later date which is now set for next | Monday. Those who have heard his) talk state it is a truly remarkable story | of what is being done to remake and put back in the game again, men dis- | abled both in war and in industry. | The stereopticon slides furnish amaz- | ing proof of the stories of reconstruc- | tion which to a layman are at first| almost past belief. { Dr. Mock is a leading surgeon of | Chicago and is an authority on work | with men injured in industry. During the recent war he served in the med- ical corps of the United States army, being discharged as a lieutenant colonel. In October, 1917, he was sent to the surgeon general's office "at Washington, D. C., to the division of surgical reconstruction, and thereafter most of his work was concerned with the rehabilitation of disabled soldiers. After the war, for nine months he was editor of the magazine, "Carry On," which was published in the interests of disabled soldiers. In 1919 he was a delegate representing the United States army at the Inter-allied Medical Conference for disabled soldiers at Rome. Open to Public Dr. Mock's lecture will begin at 9 o'clock. The members of the Post are urged to bring any of their friends, whether ex-service men or not, who would like to hear this lecture and the lecture will be open to the public. At 8:30 o'clock the North Shore Talking Machine company of Win- netka will give a concert on the Orthophonic Victrola with Miss Polly Arndt, pianist, as accompanist. The concert and the lecture will be preceded, beginning at 8 o'clock, by a short business session. Offer Special Course of" Lent Lectures at Center . (Contributed) Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, Feb- ruary 17, and those who, like the little girl in one of our Protestant families "want a special day like Margaret's when they can eat something different," may satisfy that hunger for spiritual uplift by attending a course of six lec- tures on the "Second Isaiah" to be giv- en every Tuesday morning by the Rev. Austin Richards at Community House, beginning February 23. Those who have been attendants at other courses given by Mr. Richards need only to be notified of the time and place of this one. But for newcomers this is offered as a rare opportunity-- one hour a week for five Tuesdays from 10 to 11 A. M.--to feed both their minds and their souls. One cannot find a better way to spend some of the hours of Lent. The subje¢t for Feb- ruary 23 is, "The Exile and the Voice of Comfort," Isaiah 40:1-11. Mrs. A. P. Thoms of 863 Lincoln avenue left on February 8 for a trip to Florida. She expects to be away about a month. Next Music Club Recitalist Albert Spalding, America's greatest violinist, will give a recital in the auditorium of New Trier High school Tuesday evening, February 16, under the auspices of the Winnetka Music club. Mr. Spalding has been chosen as a soloist 36 times by the New York Symphony orchestra and 19 times by the Chicago Symphony orchestra. He has given recitals in almost every country in the world and last year had the distinction of being the first American ever to sit as a judge at the examinations of the Paris conservatory. He was awarded the Cross of the Crown of Italy by the Italian government for his distinguished services in the war. 1 a:La Polia +. +... 5a li-Spalding b. Siciliano pa SERED. *ini-Salmon >.
