'PLAN SKOKIE BAZAAR Articles in Variety in the Making in Various Departments of School; Date Is December 10 Plans are proceeding rapidly for the | Christmas bazaar which will be held at | the Skokie school Friday, December [10. Various departments have been { working at high speed in order to pro- |duce the large number of articles {which will be placed on sale when the doors open at 2 o'clock on that day. In the sewing department every one has been busy dressing dolls and inciden- tally, they have produced a family of dolls that would make any department store justly jealous. There are French dolls, baby dolls, mama dolls, and papa dolls; in fact it is entirely possible that there are even flapper dolls, and all are ready for adoption into somebody's home at Christmas time. In the metal working department copper and pewter articles are being turned out by the dozen. There are card trays and ash trays; butter dishes and other dishes, book ends and nap- kin rings, match boxes and paper knives, and even large pewter platters fit to hold the prettiest turkey or fat hen that ever headed toward becoming be-headed. And the Art and Cooking depart- ments are far from behind in their con- tributions. Hand painted articles of all kinds have been added to the list, shoe- trees, coat hangers, hand painted Christmas cards, and what not swell the list to overflowing. And the cook- ing--oi yoi the cooking--well the cookies, cakes, candies and other good- ies furnished from the "cook's own ladle" should be enough to tempt even dyspectic old Scrooge until he would eat enough to melt his "cash-box" heart. It is rather suspected that "General Public" will be there in force. \ J MR. L. C. ODH RS RSS SSS SS TCT CR RR SSS } MISS DOROTHY ROOT MRS. E. G. STUBBS MRS. CHAS. SOMMER MR. W. L.
