Mr. Scott has long coveted just this "| sort of a home, but declares his fond- est dreams had never visioned a place quite as ideal in every respect, as this. The village of Genoa is situated three miles north of the Illinois line, nine miles from Lake Geneva and fifty-two miles from Winnetka. The twenty-two acre "Hill Crest" estate is in the corporate limits of the village. It is a beautiful, sloping piece of ground, improved with a substantial eight-room house, modern throughout, also and a large barn. There is an abundance of fruit of all kinds, five or six acres of native trees, with the bal- ance of the tract in an advanced state of cultivation. "Scotty" says he has lived there only a week, and during that time has not only had many overtures to sell the place, but has been offered a very substantial increase in the price for which he bought the property. He is looking forward to living a long time, but insists he will spend the remainder of his life on "Hill Crest," watching Chicago grow, right up to him, and the value of his little farm keeping just one jump ahead. Chicago Boy Breaks Leg in Fall From Auto Truck August Lentzen, 14 years old, who lives at 5020 North Keeler avenue, Chi- cago, fell off a truck on Dundee road last Saturday, breaking a leg and in- juring both arms. He was on his, way to the Illinois Golf club, where he is employed as a caddie and had been given a ride on a west-bound truck. A sudden jolt of the truck threw the boy to the pavement. The boy was removed to the office of Dr. John H. Gromley, 342 Park avenue, Glencoe, where his injuries were dressed, after which he was taken to the Cook Coun- ty hospital. ASK FOR RECIPES Many women have expressed an in- terest in the promise of a Winnetka Cook book containing famous and tested recipes of our local talent. This was to be on sale at the Holiday shops in Community house on November 20 and 21. But a disappointment may be in store for those interested unless everyone who has promised to con- tribute recipes, contributes immediate- ly. Although a great number were promised, not enough recipes have been received to make publication pos- sible, and it will soon be too late. These recipes may be sent to Com- munity house in care of Mrs. Ellison, or to Mrs. Royal Hoagland, 416 Wil- low road. Miss Catherine and Miss Virginia Lay, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Lay of 1408 Edgewood lane, returned Saturday, August 18, from a motor trip around the lake. They had the company of Miss Marie Hissink from The Hague whom Miss Catherine met while traveling in Europe last year. Miss Hissink will be their guest until Saturday when she leaves for Boston to visit friends before sailing in Sep- tember for Holland. Mrs. James P. Schreiner, 1040 Spruce street, entertained a number of friends on Thursday, August 23 for luncheon and bridge.
