LEE Says: WELL, we suppose that EVERYBODY at your house-- ESPECIALLY the lady in CHARGE --is busy getting READY for Thanksgiving NEXT Thursday, and we CAN'T help thinking what A JOY it would be to SOME of those famished CITIZENS across the big POND if they could just HAVE a little share in SOME of these big THANKSGIVING dinners THAT will be served IN THIS section of the COUNTRY --and doesn't it JUST make you feel mighty GLAD, when you think of IT, that you are living HERE in Winnetka IN THE best town in THE STATE, and that you HAVE three "squares" a DAY and a good place to SLEEP, and protection AND freedom and EVERYTHING that goes WITH it--Thankful? WE'LL say we are! ADAMS PHARMACY The Elm & Linden excll Swre WINNETKA 2 Speaker at Club Norman Hapgood, journalist, diplo- mat and lecturer, is to speak at the meeting of the Wilmette Sunday Eve- ning club November 21. Mr. Hap- good is one of the best known living writers on political subjects and is heralded by leaders in the Sunday Eve- ning club as an extremely interesting speaker. Every little helps the WIN- NETKA MEMORIAL. It's the spirit not the amount. Suggest Contests for Scouts in All 4 North Shore Towns Because of the success of the two contests held between the Scouts of Kenilworth Troop 1 and Troops 3 and 7 of Evanston, plans are being form- ulated to promote a contest among all of the troops on the north shore. It is believed that such a contest would add a great amount of interest and provide a definite test as to the ability and speed of the Scouts in the various -- phases of scouting. It would also pro- vide a stimulus for the Scouts to at- tempt to attain the highest grade of efficiency and knowledge in scouting. Troop 1, of Kenilworth, invaded Evanston, Monday, for the return en- gagement with Troops 3 and 7 of that city, in contests in knot-tying, build- ing fire by friction, and signaling. By tying Troop No. 3 for second place in knot tying and winning both first and second place in signaling, they emerged the victor by a score of ten points. Troop 3 having gained 9 points by taking first in knot tying and tying for second place. The winning signal- ing team was composed of Richard = Buck and Junior Dickinson. The sec- ond place being taken by the team made up of Scouts Howe and South- ward. The Kenilworth knot-tying team was composed of Scouts Howe, Springer, Saxton, Southward and Hamilton. Mrs. George Knox Owsley, 720 Pros- pect avenue, left this week for a visit of several weeks with Mrs. F D. Ows- ley in Greenwood, Va..
