WINNETKA TALK October 30, 1926 NOT ALL GOOD We never tried to make anyone believe that all Used Cars were good cars. But we do insist that the Used Cars we sell are good cars. And the people who buy them know it.

The famous Russian singer, who has been coming to America for ten sea- sons as foremost baritone for the Chi- cago Civic opera company, both under the Campanini regime and under the more recent civic management, last year became an American citizen, and is now entering upon extensive plans for a year of concert singing in Amer- ica, a form of presentation in which he is popular in all the capitals of Europe, though his American appearances have hitherto been confined to opera. Baklanoff, who is now completing an opera engagement in California, and will return to Europe almost immedi- ately following his Chicago concert, his only Chicago appearance for this season, to complete concert engage- ments there, in order to be free for an American tour. The great dramatic ability of this artist as well as his quality of voice, has achieved for him a unique place in the records of operatic personalities, and has earned for him from his pub- ile and his confreres the appellation of "Russian Bear." Assisting Baklanoff on the gala pro- gram will be Irene Pavloska, well known mezzo-soprano of the Chicago Civic Opera company, and Amy Neill, the young American artist, called the greatest woman violinist of the day. Isaac Van Grove, composer-conduc- tor, is arranging the entire program and will be at the piano. Kate Grandall Raclin, who has pres- sented Feodor Chaplin the past two seasons in his Chicago appearances, and who was responsible several sea- sons ago for the successful concert that bade farewell to Lucien Mura- tore's American engagements, is pre- senting the November 4th concert, the first of the season's gala events. Skokie Chapter, D. A. R. to Observe Anniversary The Skokie Valley chapter, Daugh- ters of American Revolution, held the first meeting of the season at the home of Mrs. E. F. Snydacker in Kenil- worth, Monday, October 25. Mrs. E. I.. Scheidenhelm of Wilmette gave a paper on "The Early History of the Skokie Valley and its Neighbors." It was such a comprehensive paper and one considered so valuable, so concise and true, and delightfully written, that the Skokie chapter voted to place it in the files of the chapter for future reference. The next meeting of the chapter will take place November 24, at the home of Mrs. Percy Eckhart in Kenilworth, and will be in celebration of the first birthday of the chapter. Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Noe rented a house at Hollis, Long Island. The Noe family resided in Winnetka until re- cently.
