November 27, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 7 Camp Reunion Night Date Announced for Tuesday, Dec. 28 The annual Camp Reunion held by the Indian Hili campers will take place the Tuesday following Christmas, De- cember 28, at 6 o'clock sharp, in the Assembly room of the Community House. While details have not been announced, there will be stunts, songs, | and the usual fine dinner served. Those who attended the reunion last year will remember some of the soulful songs | sung by Fred Rummler, and his side- | kicks, and will also remember the sol- emn speeches made in honor of the occasion. With this in view, "Chief" Davies has appointed several dignified mem- | bers of former camps to take charge of the entertainment which promises to be most hilarious. Aside from the stunts, the good food and the fine decorations which will comprise evergreens, Chief is scheduled to tell one of his famous stories. Save the date of December 28, take off your stiff tuxedo, your tight slip- pers, your scratchy white collar, and don your comfortable flannel shirt, your knickers, your old squshy shoes and have a riproaring time with the | bunch.

BURGLARIES AT KENILWORTH Burglars were reported to have been active on three successive nights in Kenilworth. On Sunday night the home of Benjamin F. J. Odell at 329 Warwick road was entered and ran- sacked in a search for valuables. As far as has been discovered, however, nothing was taken as silverware and other things were left untouched. It is the theory of the police that the [burglar was after cash and not be- ling able to find any, departed empty handed. On Monday night the Edward | Marshall home at 140 Kenilworth ave- nue, was entered in much the same way. As in the case of the Odell rob- bery nothing of value was taken. The third burgulary occurred on Tuesday night. Mrs. Harry C. Holloway of 5%9 Sheridan road, Glencoe, entertained at luncheon Tuesday, November 23, in honor of Miss Margaret Orde's bridal party.
