September 15, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Welfare Center Seeks Help for Colored Women The Educational and Welfare center of Evanston is filling a long felt need in the life of the colored young woman employed on the north shore. This institution was organized and opened June 14, 1928 by Miss Bessie M. Gar- rison, a graduate student at North- western university. Here the industrial or business wo- man finds comfortable rooms with a homelike atmosphere. Here the young woman who is employed along the north shore may come Thursdays and Sundays and find a cordial welcome. Here she may meet her friends and find an uplifting association. Her mail may be sent to her here. The work is meeting the approval of welfare and civic leaders of the com- munity and receiving their co-opera- tion. The center is appealing for a donation of supplies that it may be equipped to render more efficient serv- ice. The present needs of the center are: 10 pillows, 15 comforts and blankets, 30 single sheets, 30 pillow cases, 30 bath towels, 30 hand towels, 10 roller towels, 15 buff colored window shades, 30 inches wide, 6 buff colored window shades, 36 inches wide, 1 buff colored shade, 50 inches wide, 1 dozen cups and saucers, 3 brooms, 2 dish pans, 6 straight chairs, rugs, pails. Contributors are asked to deliver their supplies to 1115 Ayars place, Evanston, or to phone Miss Bessie M. Garrison at Greenleaf 2542. George Dasch Succeeds H. E. Knapp in Symphony To take the place of Prof. Harold E. Knapp who resigned his position of head of the Northwestern University Symphony orchestra, George Dasch has been appointed director. Mr. Dasch is the conductor of the Little Symphony in Chicago and has been in the past a member of the or- ganization he will now direct. Another of his musical activities is the arrang- ing of the Sunday afternoon concerts at the Chicago Art institute. Organization of the orchestra for this year will start toward the end of the month and it is expected that three concerts will be given by the group during the next year. Dudley Crafts Watson to Give Lecture Series Much interest is being shown during these early fall weeks in the lectures to be given by Dudley Crafts Watson under the sponsorship of the North Shore Art league at Winnetka Com- munity House. These lectures are held Monday evenings and the first of the series will be given either the first or the second Monday in October. Mr. Watson has but recently returned after an extensive European trip from which those who attend his lectures will un- doubtedly benefit through his interest- ing experiences.
