WINNETKA TALK April 2, 1927 I" i a Lee Says: MR. BURBANK took the SPINES out of the CACTUS and made a VALUABLE stock food-- AND now science has TAKEN the unpleasant TASTE out of castor OIL and has made it a VERY palatable drink! IT'S all "dolled up" IN fruit juices until ALL trace of the ORIGINAL taste is lost IN pleasant flavor. HOWEVER, there still REMAINS in the new MIXTURE the real ESSENCE of castor oil AND nothing is changed BUT the taste, which YOU'LL have to admit, IS far from tempting, EVEN though you do TELL the children that "IT doesn't taste bad AT: all." SQUIBB"S flavored oil COMES in 35¢ BOTTLES, and every home SHOULD be supplied.

Last Wednesday night Rev. A. E. Rohrbach gave a stirring presentation of the significance of the Garden of Gethsemane and its answer of the age long question of Redemption. "The fruit of obedience gained through suf- | fering" was another phase brought out in a most forceful manner. The ministers and others responsible for these services extend a cordial in- vitation for next Wednesday night. This is an especially appropriate time for co-operation in Christian fellow- ship and consecration and it is hoped that many will want to share therein.

During the! dinner, at which thirty-four people were present, Dr. E. V. I.

Immediately following Dr. Brown's! introduced several talk, Mr. Hadley members of his staff. Prof. Philemon Kohlsaat told of his pupils in psy- chology. Prof. Kohlsaat, who is also associated with the Lewis Institute, has given his services to the work without remuneration and his friends were much interested to hear his re- actions to it. Miss Larrison, the next to be introduced, told of the pupils in her short story writing course, which is said to be the most popular in the school. A letter from Prof. Steel, who gives the course in insur- ance salesmanship, was also read. It is interesting to note that seventeen of his pupils are now holding positions with reputable insurance concerns. Mr. Allen, secretary of the school, talked upon the publishing of various books and manuscripts which are sent out to the students and also to the libraries all over the country. Following the dinner, Mr. Hadley spoke informally upon the work of the school and his plans for the future, dealing particularly upon the attitude of the blind, which it is pointed out, is to aid themselves and not to seek pity. At-the close of the evening, Mrs. George Frazer, accompanied by Mrs. Harris on the piano, sang a group of songs. This was followed by several negro spirituals sung by Mr. Fentress.
