J. Balaban's mother, Mrs. Rose Freeman, at the Copeland hotel, Chicago. Maude Muller and the "Squire" | called to see the circus, these char- acters being cleverly portrayed by Mr. and Mrs. IL.eonard Cowan, who recently moved to Glencoe from Chi- cago. Among the shy country maidens who ventured to the circus was Mrs. Burkhardt's mother, Mrs. Harriet Wile, of Chicago, who admitted she enjoyed the show a lot, and "sure wants to go next year." Lemonade on Tap Little Billie Burkhardt was a favor- ite vendor at the soda fountain, which George Lomax, of Chicago, a friend of A. J. Balaban, sent out and in- stalled in the garage where fountain drinks and "red lemonade" were dis- pensed and without which no real rural circus would be complete. The H. N. Blasius Co. tent and awning manufacturers, with headquar- ters in Waukegan and with offices and store room at 26 Prouty Annex, Win- netka, erected the tent for the circus, a huge 40 by 70 foot canvas, and also supplied the "barker's" stand at the entrance to the tent and the canvas for the dressing room section, in the garage. Ernst von Ammon Opens Store on Spanish Court A branch store of the Ernst von | Ammon studio, located in "No Man's Land," has been opened and is now ready to offer the same service in in- terior decorating and the selection of decorative accessories that is offered at the von Ammon studio in Chicago.

The opening of the new Studio marks the addition of another high class shop to the list on Spanish court. Since the opening of Teatro del Lago, the "No Man's Land" the- ater, the popularity of the street has been steadily increasing and it is an- ticipated that the next few weeks will see the Court a complete pur- chasing center with stores of every type.
