The younger gen- eration were allowed to slap on the | paste, while the more responsible and |older women placed the strips of paper. Most efficient in paper-hanging were | Miss Jane Dale, and Miss Ellen Mel- lor, who managed the job. One mem- |ber of the society tells of the fun they had with the sticky paste, and the beaus who came down offering to assist, but were shooed out because the Woman's society felt entirely capable of papering a basement if they wanted to! = And when entertainments were given to raise money for the church, a committee was not appointed to drive to Community House in a car, light a gas stove without even requir- ing the use of a match, and prepare a luncheon, not having to wash the dishes afterwards. The program was quite different. Used Village Hall Every strong husband and willing beau was marshalled during the eve- ning to carry kerosene stoves up to the third story! of the old Village hall, to carry pails of water, dishes and food. Up on this third story the ba- zaars, and dinners were held, the shows and minstrels were given. Everyone in the society baked and cooked for the dinners, and brought glasses of jelly, pots of home-made butter, and jugs of preserves. There were no ice-cream stands in Winnetka, no drugstores, just a gen- eral store, blacksmith shop and post- office. So the Woman's society made ice-cream and sold it in a room op- posite the Public library, which was located in the old dormitory building. Saturday night in Winnetka used to mean a gathering at the library, the only place to meet and talk over the coming strawberry social. Rummage sales were the delight of the society and were often in charge of Mrs. Oldfather, who was a master at managing them. Devise Clever Plan One of the cleverest money raising schemes thought of and carried out by the society was the nickel investment plan. Each child in the Sunday school was given five cents to invest. With this money he was to make morte, and after a limited time, say a month or two, was to turn in the money he had toward the new church bell, needed in the Elm street church. Unique plans were thought of by the children. One little girl bought a 5c ball of crochet cotton and knit caps, which she sold, buying more cotton, and turned in more than five dollars. A mechanically inclined boy bought a door stop and sold it for a profit, buy- ing more door stops and doing the same, and he turned over an amazing amount of money. So the society has developed from a membership of twelve to one of hundreds, and is still growing. With an interest in welfare organizations, missions, social problems and means of eradicating them, this group has had a vital part in village affairs, and promises another successful year un- der a new group of officers and direc- tors who are striving to keep up the good work of having every woman find a place in its activities.
