A half hour re- ception preceded the luncheon at 12:30, with the afternoon meeting commenc- ing at 2. The program, under the chair- manship of Mrs. George Hanly Nip- pert, was given by Eva Bowler, so- prano, with Miss Elizabeth Stokes, her accompanist, and Mary Moncure Parker, announcer and entertainer for WMAQ. Original monologues by Miss Parker were preceded and followed by two groups of songs. Hostesses for the day were Mes- dames Elaim C. Alexander, E. F. Bu- chanan, Howard H. Witherstine, Hugh C. Hinman, Warren Burkhart, Wil- liam M. Garlington, Phillip S. Harper, and Dr. Mary H. Elliott. An innovation of the club is the course its Parliamentary law class offered to members of the club with- out charge. Tumalty Medicated Baths Brought to North Shore November 1, saw the opening of the north shore establishment of the fam- ous Tumalty medicated vapor baths. This bath, which has gained a national reputation for its successful treatment of rheumatism, colds, lumbago, neu- ritis, neuralgia, etc, has heretofore operated only on the south side of Chicago, much to the inconvenience of the patrons from the north shore. Mr. Tumalty, one of Chicago's pi- oneers, now 86 years old, invented the bath to cure his own case of rheuma- tism. When specialists told him that the medicine required to cure his case would probably injure his stomach, he conceived the idea of absorbing the medicine through the pores by medium of steam vapor. With the aid of the physicians he perfected his process to the extent that his rheumatism dis- appeared. Friends came in and were treated with similar results. They brought their friends. Mr. Tumalty had no desire to commercialize his project; he simply wanted it for his own convenience, but business came and would not be refused. And women found it a pleasant substitute for ex- ercise. The Evanston establishment is lo- cated at 1703 Sherman avenue, direct-. ly across from the Varsity theater, and is operated by S. Budahl. EMPLOYMENT AGENCY MOVES The North Shore Employment agency announces the removal of its headquarters from 1618 Sherman ave- nue, Evanston, to the second floor of the Wieland building at 1616 Sherman avenue, Evanston. This agency, which is the oldest on the north shore, was founded in 1905 by Miss Ella Kline; in later years the business was continued by her sister, Mrs. R. L. Chrimes, and is now under the management of Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Chrimes. The telephone numbers will not be affected by this removal.
