A WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 22, 1922 ee ------------------ m-- S-- -------------- WARD FOR CHILDREN INSURES BEST CARE Evanston Hospital Opens Section Exclusively for Children's Ailments HUNDREDS INSPECT Located on Second Floor of Cable Building The newly opened children's annex of the Evanston hospital will doubtless be of interest to residents in the North Shore towns on account of its unusual features and provisions for the care of children. The annex was opened for inspection Monday, July 17, and hun- dreds, both from the North Shore towns and Evanston, visited the re- modeled building. Since the completion of the new general building to which the adminis- tration offices have been moved, Miss Ada Belle McClyeery, superintendent of the hospital, has been busy reno- vating the two older buildings for the purpose of making the second floor particularly a children's department. This was the original purpose of the uilding as specified by the donor, Mrs. Herman D. Cable. Has Children's Playroom Most of the rooms on the east and west of the main corridor through the Cable building have been converted into the children's ward. The first room contains two beds separated by a glass partition and is to be known as the observation room for children. All children will be taken here for cultures when first they enter the hos- pital. The children's ward opens onto the sun porch and has been redeco- rated and refurnished. The sun room itself will be used as a playroom for the children. It is childlike in its decorations with its blue and white ruffled curtains, its white enameled furniture with color designs painted on. The goldfish aquarium and canary cages are calculated to catch the eyes and delight the senses of the young- sters. In the special kitchen the children's food is prepared under the direction of Miss McCleery and the facilities are excellent for the accomplishment of this object. The kitchen itself is a model of cleanliness. Provision for Mothers The rooms in the old administration building, which is connected with the Cable building, have been converted into tasteful private rooms for little children, each room containing a bed for the child and one for the mother if the child is seriously ill and requires her attention. The white enameled furniture with its painted colored de- signs has been especially planned to meet both the physical and mental requirements of the juvenile tenants. One side of the hall has the decora- tions in blue and the other in pink. The old diet kitchen and the bath- rooms have been eliminated and the rooms thrown together. Provision for tonsil cases has been made here, the room containing four beds where the children will stay for the two or three days necessary to recover from the operation. The closing of the stairway out of the old general offices has eliminated all the noise and disturbance from the first floor so the little tots can rest in quiet. The large sun porch on the east ex- -- -- GOLF FANS PAY HIEk FOR OVER ENTHUSISN Speeding Motorists Help To Swell Treasury Skokie's golf course is full of hazards which embarrass the players and make the game thrilling. The players were not the only ones present at the tournament who experienced difficulty with hazards last week. Sheridan Road has four of them in the person of four motorcycle policemen from Wilmette and Kenilworth, Twenty-two motorists intent upon reaching the links in time to see a full round or anxious to follow a favorite around the course met the hazards and lost considerable time be- fore they could resume the trail. The case of Arthur Brooks, of Indianapolis, was perhaps the most pathetic. Brooks was speeding up Sheridan road at 40 miles per hour when Henry Brantigan, one of the hazards, motioned him to the side of the road. "Officer," he said, "I am on my way to see my first golf match and I was afraid I would be too late." The officer was sympathetic but unable to pardon him after considering the speed. Magistrate Mickey assessed a fine of $20 and costs against the fan. Several of the cars were loaded with stars returning after a hard day's play, although none of them were driving at the time. Newspaper reporters, bankers, caddies and actors were in- cluded in the haul. The results follow: H. L. Shuster, Chicago, $10.00 and costs; H. Klee, Chicago, $25.00 and costs; J. Benson, Evanston, $5.00 and costs; E. H. Lyons, $5.00 and costs; Fred Gardner, Chicago, $10.00 and costs; W, L. Jameson, Glencoe, $15.00 and costs; W. C. McFarlan, Evanston, $5.00 and costs. | Dr. A.
