Gu. SRR 4 September 17, 1927 WINNETKA TALK 13 MILITARY ACADEMY TO OPEN DOORS OCTOBER 3 Inaugural Ball to Herald New School Established in Niles Center Area The North Shore Military academy located at Niles Center is to have its inaugural ball on the evening of Thursday, September 29, in the Or- rington hotel ballroom at Evanston. This dance is under the auspices of the Ladies' auxiliary of that organ- ization and the proceeds are to- be used to equip the -dormitory for the first unit which is already built. The first classes start October 3 for cadets of the Junior High school (seventh and eighth grades) and high school. The new military academy is spon- sored by prominent Chicago and north shore people and is described as most fortunately located with all the natural facilities for unhampered ex- pansion. Establishment of the school, it is explained, is in response to a very definite demand for a military academy on the north shore. Similar schools throughout the United States are putting Chicago and north shore boys on their waiting lists because of lack of facilities and this new school is designed to fill the resultant demand for that character of training. The faculty of the military academy is to be comprised of graduates of leading eastern universities who have had many years of teaching experi- ence. M. C. K. Little is president of the school organization; William D. Saltiel is vice-president; Russell L. Furlong is secretary-treasurer, and Paul E. Rudd his assistant. Directors include Oscar W. Carlstrom and the aforenamed offi- cials. Walter J. Raymer, George W. Dixon, Dr. Herman H. Bundesen, A. M. Shelton, B. L. McNulty, Victor Olander, Edward H. Harms, William F. Roberts, Samuel M. Felton, James B. Rowe, George A. Lytton, William D. Saltiel and George Busscher, Jr., are others in- terested as members of the board of governors. Name H. O. Barnes to Post of Commissioner H. O. Barnes, assistant building com- missioner and member of the Kenil- worth Village board of trustees, was appointed to the office of building commissioner by the Kenilworth Vil- lage board at its regular meeting last Friday night. The appointment was made to fill the vacancy caused by the death recently of Alexander M. Love- dale former commissioner and member of the board. The vacancy on the board still re- mains unfilled but action is expected to be taken in this connection at the next regular meeting of the board in October. Mrs. Fred R. Haviland and her son, Fred, Jr., have returned from their summer home at Lauderdale lakes. Fred, Jr., leaves Tuesday for Howe school. a, 3 Lm EDWARD J.

We are always happy to meet the youngsters. The wise parent realizes that their children cannot learn habits of thrift and the value of money too young. They also know that an early under- standing of the many uses of a bank will aways be useful to their children. Bring in the young folks. BANKING HOURS Daily Saturday 7:30 A.M. to 3 P.
