) L July 9, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 13 Dance Garden and Open Air Cafe on Roof of Orrington The Orrington hotel's roof garden which has been remodeled into an at- tractive open air restaurant and dance garden with gay Japanese decorations will open tomorrow night. Duke Bige- low's popular nine-piece dance orches- tra will play every night except Sun- day from 6:30 to 9. Friday and Satur- day nights the dancing will continue until midnight. A spacious dance floor has been constructed on the roof around which are placed the tables. The roof ball- room has been redecorated and will be used on nights when the weather is unfavorable. Japanese lanterns which have been strung over the roof make a pleasant place to dine and dance. Both formal and informal attire will be in vogue at all times. The manage- ment announces that patrons may feel at home either in business clothes or dress attire. Excellent cuisine at un- usually reasonable prices is to be one of the features of the new open air restaurant. The Orrington hotel roof, said to be one of the finest in the Chi- | cago area, will provide a cool place to dine and dance this summer. ENTERTAIN FOR GUESTS Mrs. I. A.
