WINS TENNIS LAURELS Friends of Mrs. Stewart Johnson of 678 Sheridan road are quite pleased with the tidings of her splendid prowess at tennis, word having just come of the winning by Mrs. Johnson of a silver tennis cup at the Harem club, at Cairo, Egypt. Also we have word of the resumption of pleasures in that far away land, with her friends of the diplomatic circle. Mrs. John- son's young daughter, Catita, is quite well now, although she was very ill during their entire stay in Rome. They may return home about the last of April, but their plans are not yet definite. Public Forum Editor, WINNETKA TALK: : On page two of the March 10 issue of WinxxETRA TALK there is a very fine piece of publicity for Community House. But there is cause for mis- understanding in the paragraph headed "Be at Home when the Solicitor Calls." Community House is asking for sub- scriptions for maintenance "of the House and its own various activities, such as the Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, etc. By some mistake, the sup- port of the Visiting Nurse is included in the list to be covered by one check from each subscriber. In point of fact, the support of the Visiting Nurse is not the responsibility of Community House. The School board, because the Visiting Nurse work is very largely in the schools, contributes $50 a year to the nurse's salary. The rest is raised by the finance committee of the Re- lief and Aid society as a part of the annual appeal to the residents of Win- netka for funds to support its work. In making it quite clear that money subscribed to Community House is not money for the maintenance of a Visit- ing Nurse, the Relief and Aid society is very glad to have this opportunity to express its grateful recognition for the fact that for sixteen years Com- munity House has given office room and room for supplies to the Visiting Nurse. To have headquarters in Com- munity House, where the Visiting Nurse could be reached and could carry on her clerical work. has been of great advantage to the Nurse, and to the Relief and Aid. --FElaine D. Sidley, Publicity Chairman. Relief and Aid Society. Winnetka Men Attend Annual Yale Banquet Henry A.
