-- --i WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1923 HISTORY MADE REAL IN CHILDREN'S PLAY History becomes real by living it, fot by reading about it. In no way can we enter into the spirit of the past generations as by playing the characters of influential men of his- tory. -In order to make the growth of our country real in the minds of the children in Mr. Osteggaard's sixth grade in the Horace Mann school, the children acted out, with the assistance of Miss Douglas Whitehead, super- visor of dramatics in the Winnetka schools, that story of our country which deals with the Louisiana Pur- chase. ~ The play, entitled "The Largest Real Estate Deal ever Made," was iven before a large audience of fel- En pupils and parents in the Horace Mann Assembly room last week. Due in a large measure to the ex- cellent coaching of Miss Whitehead and Mr. Ostergaard, the children were so familiar with the subject and en- tered into their parts so realistically that the whole performance had an air of professional finish. Even the spectators forgot that they were in make-believe land. With a few screens and simple cos- tuming the children gave an excellent portrayal of the different characters. Monroe, Livingston, the polished French minister, and the dainty little French maid, were excellent. These parts were played by Martin Cassell, Betty Barber, Margaret Belote and Jane Barr. Expert Cleaner and Dyer Establishes in Winnetka A. W. Zengeler, cleaner and dyer of Lake Forest, has purchased the Johnson interests at 810 Elm street, Winnetka, where he will continue the business. Mr. Zengeler is said to be not only highly competent, but actually an ex- pert in the cleaning and dyeing line, having been "born and raised in the business" in Chicago where his father was proprietor of one of the first cleaners and dyers establishments. For the past 20 years, Mr. Zengeler has conducted his own plant in Lake Forest, considered one of the mos: modernly equipped establishments on the north shore.
