Woman's Club a ------ J A regular meeting of the Winnetka Woman's club was held on Thursday 'afternoon, November 18, at 2:30 o'clock. The president was in the chair. The minutes of the last reg- ular meeting were read by Mrs. de Windt, the recording secretary, and approved. Mrs. Porter announced that at the last Board meeting, on November 11, the following motion was passed: "The Board has decided that after a final notice has been sent to mem- bers who have not paid their dues, their names shall be posted in the club house, and after a month shall be dropped from the list of members." Mrs. Porter spoke of the Fourth Biennial meeting of the Illinois Wom- en's Legislative congress which will be held on December 28 and 29, in the Gold room of the Congress hotel. As an organization of over 500 mem- bers the club is entitled to send thir- teen delegates to the congress, and any member who would care to volunteer for this service is asked to communicate with Mrs. Porter. Mrs. Harriet Taylor Treadwell is the president of the congress. The Winnetka Public library is making a plea for donations of books. The funds for the purchase of new reading matter are not adequate to meet the library's needs, and every- one is urged to look over her book shelves and see what modern fiction or older books she would care to share with the public. Mrs. Porter announced a great op- portunity and privilege for the club members at the next regular meet- ing on Thursday, December 2. Mr. Willoughby G. Walling, vice chair- man of the National Red Cross, will speak on "The Relief of Europe". Mr. Walling brings to this talk all the wealth of his varied experience in Washington and abroad.

"The program for the afternoon was in charge of the Art and Literature committee, Mrs. Franklin Rudolph, chairman. Mrs. Norman Harrower, © the essayist announced, was unable to be present, so her paper on "Modern French Poets" was read by Mrs. Laird Bell. Mrs. Edwin Fetcher = played two numbers by Debussy, and Mr. Stinson, accompanied by Mr. Karl Hakes, sang some modern French songs. The music carried out the thought suggested 'by Mrs. Har- rower's paper, of the trend of the modern school of French fine arts. Tea was served by the following hostesses, Mrs. Dudley K. French, Mrs. Harry Hansen, Mrs. Charles M. Joy, and Mrs. Benjamin K. Smith.
