~ WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JANUARY 15, 1921 J hd ones: [rpm lib fappeningy : aff Vinnetio Fubbasd Woo 4 by Ruth Rides * 2 Rl FETT Hh i TTR Tr 0 W@| OST every one of us will recall, if he just stops for a Bi moment's thought, the enjoyable evening he spent in the Woman's clubhouse way last February, when the teach- 8] ers of the Winnetka Public schools entertained so royally with one or two farces, in which they personally participated in the various roles. Hence it was a delight to be apprised that another original program is being arranged for the evening of Monday, Feb- ruary 7, when the teachers will give two plays to be followed by dancing, at the Winnetka Woman's club. The entertainment is given under the auspices of the Parent-Teacher association social committee, which consists of Mrs. Charles Howells Coffin, chairman ; Mrs. Frank Crawford and Mrs. Laird Bell, and from whom tickets ~ may be obtained. The association is planning to make this an annu- al event, and one entirely worth the support of every resident of the village. On the afternoon of Monday, January 24, at 2:30 o'clock, a charity bridge is to be given at the Winnetka Woman's club for the benefit of the kindergarten of the Henry Booth Settlement, of which Mrs. M. R. Kultchar, formerly of Winnetka, is head resident. For the many women who do not care to play cards, an interesting pro- gram of readings has been arranged. An invitation is extended to the women of Winnetka, and Hubbard Woods, as well as to residents of the neighboring villages. Tickets and further information may be obtained from any member of the following committee, Mrs. Frank Bersbach, Mrs. Francis A.
