WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 1923 DISCUSS JESUS STRIFE REMEDY Sunday Morning Men's Class to Study Christ's Teaching on Class War PONDER TODAY'S NEED Consider Fight Between the Masses and Classes "No man who is conscious of the present world in which he lives can fail to sense the changing point of view toward the distribution of wealth and toward incentive to effort," reads this week's Sunday morning Men's class announcement. "From the masses come demands for larger participation in the good things of life, less economic pressure, more leisure for recreation or self- improvement, more provision against the hazard of illness and old age. "That such demands are legitimate to a substantial degree is recognized by the classes in their philanthropies. Yet many among the more favored resent the encroachments made upon their prerogatives at least whenever these are accompanied by a show of force. Cause of Strikes "Hence are modern class wars. The strike, sabbotage, lock outs, massed capital, unfair competition and many other of the commonest things in modern civilization are the outbursts of the eternal conflict between repres- sion and expression. "Books have beor- written, lectures delivered, agitation stirred, propa- ganda spread in behalf of remedies which are announced as the panaceas for a world in such spiritual distress. Most of them are the ill-concealed ef- forts of one group to get a little ad- vantage over another group. Poli- ticians add ill-digested legislation to further confuse or embitter the sit- uation. : Jesus Gives Solution "Yet nearly two thousand years ago the only real solution for this otherwise hopeless situation was pro- posed by a humble teacher along the remote roadsides of Galilee and Judea He was as unpopular as all great re- formers and at the first Easter gave his life a forfeit for his fearlessness and fidelity. "The Men's Sunday Morning class will tomorrow discuss his most per- tinent teaching on these matters, as diclosed in the incidents of The Rich Young Ruler and the Disciples' Am- bition for Place. In them occurs the age-long conflict between acquisitive- ness and service. "Men are always welcome at the Class meeting and in the discussion at 9:30 Sunday morning in the Neigh- borhood room of Community House. Hubbard Woods Improvem't Body Holds Annual Session The Hubbard Woods Improvement association held its annual meeting at the Hubbard Woods school Friday evening of this week. Election of new directors, committee reports and an address by village president John S. Miller Jr., featured the meeting. Following the business session there was a brief musical program given by Mrs. Frank Stover, Mrs. Norman Capthorne, Mrs. Orval Simp- son and Mrs. Morgan Cartier. More complete account of the meeting will be given in the issue of the Winnetka Weekly Talk of Satur- day, April 14, close proximity to press time preventing a more complete re- port at this time. Arcanum Cagers Bow to Dashing Chicago Crew On Thursday, March 26, the local council of the Royal Arcanum Basket Ball crew engaged the White Eagles of Chicago in a return game at the Community House gym, yielding to the visitors 30-14. The game was well played and interesting thoughout but the fast team attacks of the Chicago- ans proved the undoing of the locals. S. Janowski of the visitors was star of the evening, scoring 15 of the team's points. F. I. Barnhart Gairing Fine Arts 1613 Orrington Ave. Evanston Picture and Mirror Framing. Mirrors re-silvered.
