PHONES 843-844 First Concert of Artist Series to Be Given Monday Miss Sophie Braslau, famed Ameri can contralto will give the opening concert of the Artist Recital series sponsored by the Winnetka Music club, at the New Trier High school auditorium next Monday evening. Miss Braslau is considered by critics to be one of the most outstanding singers in the world today. One of the few artists of today that have been equipped by nature and training to carry out the great vocal traditions of the past, Miss Braslau was born and educated in New York City, and despite the popular belief that an European reputation is essential to success in this country, established herself as a singer of great ability and popularity long before she duplicated her American triumphs in European circles. The concerts are arranged under the supervision of a committee of the Winnetka Music club composed of the following people: Mrs. Ronald L. Whitman, chairman, Mrs. Sidney F Bartlett, Mrs. Everett I. Harris, Mrs. Louis G. Schmid, Mrs. Harry L. Street and Mrs. Dwight C. Orcutt. president of the Winnetka Music club. Leaving Your Home Unoccupied? Then Notify Our Police Winnetka police report that there is an unusual amount of complaint from residents concerning thefts and prowl ings in the village, and Chief W. M. Peterson urges householders of Win- netka, on occasions when they are leaving their homes for the afternoon or evening, especially to notify the police department so that officers in the vicinity may keep a closer vigil cn the premises. Peterson warns villagers to beware of the stranger who calls at their doer and professes to be surprised that the person whom they reoresent they arc seeking, does not reside there. Fre- quently, Chief Peterson says, this is a method employed by crooks to as- certain if there is anyone at hone. and, in the event there is not, the place is robbed.
