March 3, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Evanston T heater to Be Used as Branch of Big Loop Store Another large mercantile establish- ment will establish a branch in Evans- ton early in 1929, but the identity of the concern has not been divulged. The store is to occupy what is now the New Evanston theater, which was sold during the month to William IL Krahl of the Krahl Construction com- pany, Chicago, for a price believed to have been in the neighborhood of $160,000. The building, owned by the New Evanston Theater corporation, is being used at present by the Evanston Play- ers and that company will continue to use it throughout 1928 as the present lease does not expire until then. If the company outlives the lease it will have to seek another stage, for Mr. Krahl is to remodel the theater the first of the year and turn it into a modern store building. The tenant has already been decided upon and will oc- cupy the whole building but what company it is has not been disclosed. The theater was erected nearly 20 years ago as the home of a stock com- pany. Some time ago fire gutted it and it remained idle for a good many months. Then it was remodeled and turned into a movie theater. About two years ago another stock company was formed by Clyde Elliot, Evanston's theatrical man, and the theater was redeemed. This company was reor- ganized a few months ago and con- tinues to function as the Evanston Players. The theater has a 50-foot frontage on Sherman avenue, north of the police station, and has a depth of 140 feet.

Here Are Simple Rules for Cleaning Linoleum By Chas. Bingham Miller There are hard ways to clean lino- leum, and there is also an easy way to keep it spick-and-span. Here are a few simple directions: In the kitchen, pantry and bathroom, where water is likely to be spilled and linoleum soiled, use warm sudsy water and a good mild soap like Ivory when washing the linoleum. More harm is done to linoleum by the use of too strong cleaning agents than in any other way. The new electric liquid waxing method or rubbing the wax in thoroughly by hand serves as a film on the surface of the linoleum which prevents dirt from being ground into it, and gives the linoleum a rich, pleas- ing lustre. It should seldom be necessary to scrub a waxed linoleum floor. Excess wax may make slippery. Ordinarily all you have to do is to go over it with a dry mop daily to remove the dust. Footprints may be wiped up with a damp cloth. linoleum Racketty Packetty House at N. K. E. C. Saturday Arrangements for the presentation of "Racketty Packetty House" in Harri- son hall of the National Kindergarten and Elementary college, Saturday, March 3, will be completed with the dress rehearsal this evening. This is the sixth annual presentation of a play for children by student play- ers of the college. These plays have all been successful, but by general vote of the children, "Racketty Packetty House" is the favorite. The cast, which numbers twenty of the most talented students in the col- lege, has "played the play" until it has become second nature, and the actors apparently enjoy the performance to the full. Two performances will be given, the first at 10:30 and the second at 2:15. Dainty luncheons will be served be- tween the morning and afternoon per- formances. DEAN JAMES WRITES HISTORY Dean James A.
