His address on "The Ways to World Peace" is regarded as of in- ternational importance. In 1921, and again in 1924, Mr. Child was sent to Italy as Ambassador Ex- traordinary and Plenipotentiary. Ambassador Child was founder of the Council on Foreign Relations and Chief Representative of the United States at the Conference of Genoa in 1922 and the Conference of Lausanne in 1922, He is author of several books includ- ing "Jim Hands," "The Man in the Shadow," "Potential Russia," "The Hands of Nara," and "Fresh Waters."

Henry. i mance, Community Players Appear at Goodman Theater on May 14 (Contributed) We all know the Community Players, we enjoy their plays, and we appreciate that they are an important part of Win- netka life. The dues are nominal--only a dollar a year--and the expenses of their productions are heavy. One play given this season cost $300. And so at the end of the season there is little, if any, money left in the treasury with which to launch the next season. Yet the Community Players have am- bition always to attempt something more difficult, more artistic. Now, this means more scenery, more costumes, more furniture. The talent is there, but what it can produce is limited by what it has with which to stage the pro- duction. The simple stage of Shakes- peare's day no longer satisfies. And so Community Drama club of Winnetka, which manages the Commu- nity Players, comes to you--to us-- who so enthusiastically applaud its per- formances, with the offer of a produc- tion of another kind, by other players, on another stage, and says, "Come, here is a chance to enjoy a good play and to help us at the same time." In conjunction with The English club of Greater Chicago they have rented the Goodman theatre of the Art Insti- tute for Friday evening, May 14. This is a special performance put on by the Goodman's reportoire cast, of "The Ro- mantic Young Lady," a comedy-ro- written by the noted young Spanish poet and playwright, G. Mar- tinez Sierra, and translated by Granville Barker. It has been one of the hits of this, the Goodman's first season. There will be more to say of it next week. The thing to realize now is that every ticket sold in Winnetka will help buy the scenery and cotumes needed for another season's play, and a few more pieces of furniture. Miss Ruth C. Weil, 1040 Pine street, celebrated her seventeenth birthday last Friday night by entertaining 20 of her friends at dinner served at Gray- lings, on Michigan avenue, after which she took her guests to see "Castles in the Air."
