IIS Where charming home atmosphere is an object )SCRIMINATING people have commented on the degree to which The John Evans reflects the true home atmosphere of Evanston. It is true that this was a major object in its design. Not just a new, well located and convenient apartment was sought. These things provided a groundwork--they are there, of course. But added to them is a new idea--an apartment designed and built as you would build your own home. You'll find it in the convenient arrangement of thespaciousrooms. You'll appreciate it when the sunlight streams in across a quarter acre of garden. In the kitchen with its incinerator, mechanical refrigeration, and spotless cabinets, in tiled baths with overhead showers, in ample closets, in fixtures quietly beauti- ful, you'll sense this attention to the vital things of home. . And in all four, five, and six room apartments there's a final touch in the real wood burning fireplaces. If you care about these things come and inspect The John Evans.You'll ind it on the quiet edge of activity, in Evanston.

GIVE MUSICAL PROGRAM A musical program, consisting of vo- cal solos by Mrs. Julian Risk and piano solos by Marion Coryell, was given at the Friday assembly of the Skokie school. Mrs. Coryell rendered one group of solos of her own composition. Both parts of the program were great- ly enjoyed by the students, Mrs. Frederick W. Copeland of 1082 Jane Addams Speaks (Continued from Page 26) was quoted, "There are many causes of quarrels, but only one cause of war, namely, that there is no other machin- ery with which to settle difficulties." Turning to Geneva and the League of Nations, Miss Addams said that while nohody pretended that the league was a perfect organization, certain things were resulting from it. Inter- national thinking was more common. Geneva has become the meeting place of innumerable international schools and associations. It also affords a natural meeting place for those in power. At one time fourteen prime ministers were there. Miss Addams felt that the much criti- cized mandate system did in a measure protect the weaker nations. While the league could not depose a mandatory power, it did demand periodic reports and resultant publicity was beneficial. The small nations have a chance to ex- press themselves and their representa- tives are often the most outstanding, as witness Nansen and Bennes. Miss Addams described the tense Temperamental Radio? The Household Radio Service takes all the grief and trouble off your hands for a small sum each month. It's Complete We make monthly inspection; come when called; service ALL makes radio; and show how the best reception can be obtained. It's Priced Right The cost is monthly and small; as low in some instances as $1.00 per month. It Never Sleeps We are open from 8 A. M. to Midnight, Sundays and Holidays included.

The Court is a tender plant and cannot afford to show fa- There is a feeling that the United States is demanding special privileges. Miss Addams felt that the United States was equally sincere in denying any such intention. In closing, Miss Addams disclaimed any pleading for the League of Na- tions. Whether the United States en- ters it or not is now "up to" the in- dividual. It is much more difficult to enter by referendum than by repre- sentatives as did the other nations. The fact remains however, that the leacue is growing; is finding means of adjustment without the United States. There was a danger that the United States might lose step with the rest of the world. The audience listened as Miss Addams' audiences always do, completely under the spell of her mag- netism and quiet power. After the meeting was adjourned a social hour followed. The hostesses were, Mrs. C. Anderson Aldrich, Mrs. I. B. Connor, Mrs. James P. Gillies, Mrs. John Hansel, Jr, Mrs. Samuel Smart and Mrs. Heber Smith. fem Our Newest Creation in Modern Memorials J. H.
