January 7, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 45 Kenilworth Voters Urged to Listen to League Radio Talks By V. H. mention must be made at of the inauguration of the Tuesday evening Radio programs, broadcast by the National League of Women Voters from New York and picked up in Chicago by station WGN. This last Tuesday evening at 6 o'clock was broadcast their first program. The writer did not catch the name of the speaker but was convinced of her sin- cerity, and was delighted with her straightforward advice and suggestions to the interested citizens during the months before the election of the new president of the United States. The keynote of her talk seemed to be "America First" but with a rather un- usual thought behind these words. She suggested that we stop and think quietly for at least a half hour on this subject of "choosing a president," try- ing to eliminate all thought of self or family, or village, or county, or state even and think of "America" as a whole, trying to glean from mass of printed matter which will flood the press for the next months, the heart of the thing, and the truth about the candidates. Think what we want in America: comfort, order and peace, justice, education and the finer things of life, and then try to help to gain this end. Let each individual do his small part. It was a stirring speech and made one stop to think how best to act. The next program will occur next Tuesday evening at 6 o'clock from Washington, D. C., and the speakers will be Senator Curtis and Senator Robinson. These talks will continue every Tuesday evening at this hour. The Kenilworth League of Women Voters sent out cards asking each member of the league to listen in on these programs and to send some line of appreciation to WGN, Chicago Tribune station. Kenilworth Club Is Scene of Gay Holiday Festivity The activities of the Kenilworth club were the most attractive feature of the Christmas and New Year's entertain- ments this season in Kenilworth. From the children's beautiful party the Fri- day before Christmas, with its play of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by the Junior Jack-and-Jill Players and the quartet singing of Christmas carols, on through the holiday season, offering dancing for the young people both formally and informally, up to the New Year's celebration, the parties were a great success. At the New Year's eve dance there were about two hundred served for the midnight breakfast. Large dinner par- ties earlier in the evening came to ths club and joined in the dancing, cele- brating the coming of the New Year together. Mr, and Mrs. John O'Connor entertained a large dinner party which, after dancing at the club, progressed to the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Richards for breakfast. There were a number of progressive parties. . On New Year's day the club held 'open house" and dancing continued from 4 until 7. Special this time Frederick Skeel, Woodstock avenue, Kenilworth, joined Mrs. Skeel and their daughter, Marjorie, in Tuscon, Ariz, for the holidays. Mrs. Skeel and Marjorie have been in Tuscon for some months in the interest of Mar- Jorie's health, which is reported as greatly improved. ---- Jule and Hugh Peterson entertained a group of boys at a sleigh-ride on Tuesday of this week. They had re- freshments after the ride at the Peter- son home on Cumberland road in Kenilworth, Miss Jane Chilcott gave a luncheon for twelve of her classmates on Wed- nesday. Bunco was the chief game of the afternoon, The guests were asked to write short stories, of not more than fifty words, about something interest- ing during the Christmas vacation. ---- On Friday of last week among the several parties for young people was a bridge luncheon for twenty guests given by Miss Harriet Webster, Ox- ford road, Kenilworth. That same afternoon Miss Barbara Holden and her sisters Helen and "Buddy" gave a bridge tea. BROWN'S FIRST SALE Commencing January 12th, we will hold our first sale of Furniture and Rugs.
