August 14, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 11 PUBLIC FORUM Editor, WINNETKA TALK: So many inquiries have reached our offices concerning the aims and ideals of Visto del Lago, I thought at this time you might be interested in the character of the institution which has received such a friendly reception along the north shore. First, Vista del Lago is a club for every member of the family, every day of the year. I am aware that this is more or less an evolutionary pro- cess, but in looking about us and mark- ing the milestones of progress in many directions, we may admit that for a good many years clubs have been, per- haps, too selfishly for men, as witness the average golf or athletic club, how- ever well they serve their respective purposes.

Necessarily in such a club, the ideals and standards of comportment by members will be unimpeachably high. Anyone who has visited the shore clubs of Southern California cannot fail to mark the perfect decorum which prevails. There is certainly a steady- ing influence in the mere fact of fam- ily. Speaking personally, as a member of a great many clubs, situated from London to Los Angeles, I can say that the shore club to which T belong in Santa Monica, Cal, has brought more happiness to my family and myself than I ever had expected to find in any club. It is this basic appeal in a changing age that led to a little group of Los Angeles and Chicago sports- men launching Vista del Lago. When this magnificent structure, with its many sided interests, brings to the north shore the happiness which lies in clean association and sports, Vista CARDINAL TEA HOUSE 841 SPRUCE STREET (Just west of Center St.) Winnetka 2536 Luncheon ...... 11:30 to 2:00 Special Plate Luncheon Bs susie ope + 40 and 50 cents (Ala carte) Afternoon Tea and Refresh- ments =... 0 3 to 5 Dinner, $1.00...... 6 to 7:30 Sunday Dinner, $1.2512:30 to 3 Special attention given to | Luncheon and Bridge Parties | del Lago will have more than justi- | % itself. followed the heralding of Vista del Lago indicates that a great many per- sons have grasped the underlying mo- tives of our project.
