WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1923 North Shore Catholic League Ends Year With Luncheon HE annual luncheon of the North Shore Catholic League held Tues- day in the sun parlor at the North Shore hotel, Evanston, was the cul- mination of another successful year's work. The president, Mrs. A. XE. Tilroe, very cordially greeted guests and mem- bers and then introduced Mrs. Z. Muzik of Highland Park, one of the league's most active members, as toastmistress. The program consisted of a group of appropriate spring songs by Mrs. Nor- man Copthorne, of Winnetka, whose singing and playing both delighted every- one. This was followed by greetings from the retiring president of the Tenth Dis- trict, Mrs. James A. Campbell, who paid a glowing tribute to the president through whose leadership the League had done such good work in the district. outlined the program for the convention of the Illinois Federation of Woman's clubs to be held at Aryan Grotto, May 22, 23, and 24, and extended a most cor- dial invitation to all members, reminding them that a nominee from the Tenth District, in the person of Mrs. Martin Kent Northam, is candidate for the pres- idency of the Illinois 'Federation of Woman's clubs. The toastmistress then introduced the Rev. Father Cartwright, director of the Paulist Fathers in Chicago, who gave a travelogue beginning with the time he was a small boy in Beston when he became interested in working amongst the poor. The good he had accomplished inspired him as a priest to make this his life work. He began his priestly career in New York, administering to the poor in the afflicted tenement dis- trict, having many novel and unique ex- periences with the poor who were not deserving, as well poor who were worthy. From here he traveled to Portland, Ore- gon, where not very much was accom- plished. Later he was transferred to San Francisco where the first Chinese Catholic mission was established. Prot- estants of all demoninations had already been established here and were doing good work. Father Cartwright left the coast, coming on to Chicago and is now interested in social service work at old St. Mary's. Mrs. Maurice Lieber gave one of her interesting addresses on "Not What we Have Done in the Past, but What We Must Do in the Future." Following Mrs. Lieber, the retiring president, Mrs. Tilroe, made her farewell speech, brief- ly summarizing the past two years and asking the same loyal support and co- operation for the new administration ac- | corded the present one, quoting an old saying from Benjamin Franklin, "If we don't hang together, we will hang separ- ately." Mrs. Tilroe then presented the gavel to the new president, Mrs. W. A. Kittermaster of Glencoe, who accepted it most graciously and expressed the desire of complete co-operation. Mrs. Tilroe was presented with the customary club pin and Mrs. Kitter- master with a beautiful basket of spring flowers. The success of the luncheon was credited to Mrs. J. C. Williams and Mrs. J. S. Cook, chairmen ot arrange- ments. --0-- Mme. Eda Goedecke will present in recital Frances Anderson, thirteen year old daughter of Mr. Charles E.
