So October 9, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 45 CHURCH CELEBRATES ITS FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY Christ Church Fifty Years Old This Week; Bishop Ander- son Speaks at Ceremony The past week has been an epochal event in the history of Christ church, Winnetka, in the observance of its fiftieth anniversary, the plans of which were given in detail in the WINNETKA TALk last week. The Rev. E. Ashley Gerhard, rector of the parish, delivered the anniver- sary sermon Sunday morning. At the Young People's fellowship meeting Sunday evening, the principal speaker was the Rev. Gerald G. Moore, rector of the Church of the Advent, Chicago, whose father, the Rev. Henry G. Moore, was rector of Christ church parish from 1897 to 1907. The family reunion at the Parish house, Tuesday evening, was a most enjoyable affair. Rev. H. R. Neely, present rector of Calvary church, Chi- cago, who was rector of Christ church from 1891 to 1895, was the only one of the parish who was able to be present, but letters were read {rom many others. Bishop Anderson Speaks Bishop and Mrs, Charles P. Ander- son, of Chicago, were here, the bishop being one of the principal speakers of the evening. Talks also were made by the Rev. E. Ashley Gerhard, rector of the parish, the Rev. Gerald G. Moore, of Chicago, and the Rev. James Austin Richards, pastor of the Winnet- ka Congregational church. Wednesday evening was given over to a choir reunion, which also proved one of the pleasant occasions in con- nection with jubilee week. At the conclusion of Rev. Richard's talk, Tuesday evening, he presented to the parish a set of resolutions, beauti- fully engrossed and framed. The reso- lutions were drawn up by the board of deacons of the Congregational church, and at the Sunday morning service were presented by Lawrence A. Jan- ney, to the congregation, by whom they were adopted by a rising vote. The resolutions follow : Text of Resolution "Whereas Christ church is about to celebrate the completion of fifty years of noble Christian service "And whereas the Winnetka Con- gregational church desires to express its sentiment of warm friendship for Christ church and its appreciation of the fellowship of the two churches in their common community; "Now, 'therefore, be it resolved: That we, the ministers and people of the Winnetka Congregational church ten- der hearty greetings and felicitations to the rector, vestry, and parish of Christ church upon its happy comple- tion of a half century of devotion to the work of the Master in this com- munity ; that we offer our sincere best wishes for the continuance of the high usefulness of Christ church to the end that its ideals and its influence may be forever impressed upon this commun- ity; and that we wish for each one in the fellowship of Christ church the greatest joy and satisfaction in the celebration of this richly significant anniversary."

Winn. 1848 - Chrysler is Pioneer in New Improvements Detroit. A study of the motor car of today reveals the continued far- reaching influence that Chrysler has exerted on all types of motor cars. That company, nearly three years ago, pio- neered a score or more of fundamental and revolutionary improvements which are consistently being adopted--some in one car, others in another. More- over, continuously since its first car, Chrysler has added numerous other fea- tures. The company points out that it introduced the car which first com- bined the abilities of 70 miles and more per hour, acceleration of 5 to 25 miles in 7 4 seconds and a gasoline econo- my of better than 20 miles per gallon. Chrysler's seven-bearing crankshaft, extra large and balanced statically and dynamically, with shimless bearings, was the first such in its field. On the first car the company produc- ed, appeared as standard equipment the cleaner, restricting all dirt and dust from the engine, and assisting to elim- inate carbon. Scientific fuel distribution in the first Chrysler was achieved by designing each cylinder to receive _identical charges of gas vapor at identical tem- peratures, with its resulting fuel econo- my, power evenness and flashing pick- up. To facilitate cold weather starting and minimize crankcase dilution, the engineers introduced the electrical fumer. Manifold heat control, another pioneer step, makes for continued bet- ter operation.
