March 26, 1927 WINNETKA TALK Eminent Authority Speaks on Chinese Situation Sunday Dr. Henry W. Luce, vice president of Peking university, will speak upon the subject, "What Shall We Think of China?" in the neighborhood room of Community House Sunday morn- ing, March 27, at 9:30. The address furnishes an opportunity for all who are interested in the United States' relationship with the nations of the Pacific, to hear the opinions of an au- thority coming directly from the orient. Dr. Luce has spent practically all of his life in the development of higher education in China and for two years acted as secretary of the Chinese Edu- cational association and has had excep- tional opportunities to study the prob- lem and to observe the changing na- tional situation in all of the main sec- tions of China. In addition, his fre- quent trips to and from the United States during this period, sometimes crossing Siberia, Russia and Japan, have enabled him to observe and study the important and even serious implications in the international rela- tionships centering on the Pacific. Dr. Luce speaks under the auspices of the Men's class of the Congrega- tional church and a cordial invitation has been extended to both men and women to attend. Mrs. J. K. Farley, 300 Abbottsford road, will return to Kenilworth the end of the week from Pennsylvania where she was called because of the death of a relative. wy Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Essley, 234 War- wick road, Kenilworth have returned from Miami after an absence of three months.
