Funeral serv- ices were conducted from the resi- dence, 635 Pleasant avenue, Kenil- worth, on Thursday, Rev. Herman W. Meyer of St. John's Lutheran church of Wilmette, presiding. Burial was at the County Line cemetery near Brae- side. Mr. Lynn came originally from Sweden. He had lived on the north shore for more than 55 years, and for several years had resided in Hubbard Woods. He came to Chicago some- time previous to the Chicago Fire and was working in the city at the time of the great conflagration. He is sur- vived only by the one son, eight other children having preceded him in death. N. E.

The first on "The Development of Creative Imagi- nation" will be given Monday, Feb. 27, and the second on "The Importance of Art in Child Education" is sched- uled for March 5. Mrs. Millar is the translator of the Montessori book, the work describing the system of the Italian educator. Mrs. Millar studied under Montessori at one time in Italy and later opened a Montessori school in Washington. Dr. Herman Bundesen to Talk to N. T.

All members are urged to be present by Virginia Fitz- hugh, who is publicity chairman. Mrs. Coram Tom Davis and her daughter, Dorothy, 132 Bertling lane, left Winnetka fast Sunday for a month's stay at Miami Beach, Fla, LOANS Yimou COMMISSION On Desirable Homes and Apartment Buildings CHARITY MASK BALL ATTRACTS INTEREST Winnetka Young 'People Plan Attractive Social Event for Evening of February 18 The ticket sale for the Charity Masked ball, which the Young Peo- ple's club of the Winnetka Congrega- tional church is to give Saturday, February 18, is now well launched. The ball is to be given in Matz hall, Community House, at 9 o'clock in the evening. All of the young people of high school age are showing a keen interest in the preparations that are being made for this gay and colorful dance. It will be the last formal en- tertainment before Lent, and it is ex- pected that Matz hall will be filled with a large and enthusiastic throng of merry-makers. There is nothing that appeals more to the imagination of young people than the opportunity of dressing up in costume, and the fact that everyone must come masked and remain masked until the end of the fourth 'dance lends an enchanting air of mystery and romance to the ball. The possibility of dancing to lively | music, in a colorful setting, with some fair unknown, is a delightful one. Outstanding Social Event No trouble or expense is being spared to make this the outstanding event of the social season. Jack Rus- sell's "Kentuckians," a jazz orchestra in high favor with the young people of the north shore. has been engaged for the evening. This orchestra has played over the radio and is well known by those who love to dance. The ticket sale is in charge of a committee headed hy Martin Cassell, who may be reached at Winnetka 1313. Tickets may also be bought from a large number of New Trier students. Prominent Patronesses The following prominent women have kindly consented to act as pa- tronesses: Mesdames Edward A.
