August 14, 1926 "GOOD FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS i 5250 Broadway, Chicago 2 \ For Those Who Demand Something Different If you are content with blue serge, roast beef, square houses and domestic cigars, then Wills Sainte Claire is not made for you. Other motor cars of more or less distinction will do just as well. Happily, there is a small but extremely worth-while group of people who are more exacting in their tastes. They are rather pakvial to Biltmore tweeds, sto squab pheasants, san ne cottages and pure vana leaf. do most of the things worth while in this WO! and they do what they do with a flare -- LIVE WITH AN AIR! For these C. Harold Wills created Wills Sainte Claire. One must be born with the devine gift of INDIVIDUALITY, before the half-European beau- ty, and wholly American pep and power of this remarkable car becomes an irresistible necessity.

Any little girl want a pretty little soft kitten? Puppies and kittens, cunning and winning, are to be had without money and without price from the North Shore Humane society members who | make it their business to rescue home- | less and stray cats and dogs and at present have quite a family of pets for which they are responsible. To aid their work, a rummage sale is being conducted at intervals during the summer at 1617 Sherman avenue. Another sale period will be held there Saturday morning beginning at 8. Beds and a baby buggy are leading items of this week's sale. Former Resident Dies of Heart Disease Monday Fred Ward, 64 years old, formerly a resident of Wilmette, dropped dead in his butcher shop at 819 Noyes street, Evanston, last Monday. The cause was heart disease. Ward formerly lived in Wilmette and at one time operated a butcher shop in Hubbard Woods. He was well known to many residents of the north shore. He lived with Michael Schimmel, 2150 Sherman avenue, Evanston, and is said to have relatives in Europe. A curious coin- cidence was encountered in the in- vestigation of the case when it was learned that Ward's brother dropped dead from heart disease in the same shop eighteen months ago.
