6 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY, 17, 1924 ROTARY AWAITING ITS CHARTER NIGHT (Continued from Page 1) is maintained with district governors and committees as well as with each Rotary club through its officials. "The Rotarian," a large magazine devoted to Rotary, is published every month. The subscription list contains the names of not only the members of Rotary clubs, but a large number of other individuals, who, while not members, are interested from a pro- fessional and business standpoint in the ideas promulgated by these "Serv- ice Crusaders" of the twentieth cen- tury. Verbatim proceedings of the In- ternational convention are printed each year in book form. Hundreds of other bulletins and reports are published. The fact that more than one million copies of just reports and publications alone are printed annual- ly will give a fair idea of the volume of work handled at the central office. The present international officers are: President, Guy Gundaker, Phila- delphia, Pa.; first vice president, Ev- erett W. Hill, Oklahoma City, Okla.; second vice president, John Bain Tay- lor, London, England; third vice pres- ident, Frank H. Lamb, Hoquiam, Wash.; board of directors, the fore- going officers and directors, Benjamin C. Brown, New Orleans, La.; John J. Gibson, Toronto, Ont., Canada; Frank H. Hatfield, Evansville, Ind.; Charles Rhodes, Auckland, New Zea- land, and Anthony W. Smith, Jr, Pittsburgh, Pa. Pavement Repair Patrol Hindered By Heavy Rain The work of the patrol gang of the department of public works, whose duty it is to make prompt repairs to defects in the Tarvia macadam pave- ments in the village, has been greatly delayed this season because of the un- usual prevalence of rainy weather during the past several weeks. Re- pairs can only be made effectively when the pavements are thoroughly dry, department officials explain. The past winter, it is pointed out, was unusually hard on macadam pave- ments because of the large accumu- lation of snow on the streets, causing traffic to operate in ruts with result- ing concentration of wear on the cen- ters of roadways. Under normal weather conditions the defective spots developed during the winter season would have been entirely repaired by May 1, it is stated, but, because of the excessive amount of rain, repair operations are about two weeks behind schedule. Cost of this repair work is defrayed by funds supplied by the local vehicle tax. RADIO TO HELP IN CHURCH ANNIVERSARY (Continued from Page 1) Carrie B. Prouty, Glenn C. Bull, Harry Clarke, M. K. Meyer, Merritt Starr, Dr. J. W. F. Davies and William A. McKinney. Interesting sidelights on the earlier history and growth of Winnetka and the church were brought out, inci- dents were cited by some of the older residents showing how the influence of the church has fostered a spirit of true neighborliness and helpfulness in the village. A strong feeling prevailed as a result of these talks, that this spirit must not be allowed to die and that this anniversary celebration should be made the instrument through which this spirit should reach new measures of helpful- ness and service. The next meeting will be held, June §, at 3:30 o'clock, in the Neighborhood room at Community House. John R. Cochran Wilmette Leader, Buys Home Here John R. Cochran of Wilmette has purchased the James W. Prindiville resi- dence at Chestnut and Willow streets, Winnetka, consisting of a ten-room house and an acre of ground. The consideration was not disclosed, but it was understood to have been ap- proximately $50,000. Frederick B. Thomas and company were the brokers. Mr. Cochran is a prominent attorney, was a former Wilmette village trustee and has for several years been active in New Trier township civic affairs. Seeks Bed on Boulevard; Local Cops Take a Hand William Malder, 6846 Elizabeth street, Chicago, was arrested on a charge of drunkenness, Monday of this week, when he was found in a comitose condition seeking a reclining place on the pave- ment in Sheridan road. Malder paid $50 for his strange lodg- ings.
