THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, MARCH 12, 1920 I AVE you heard of the Babies' Friendly? It is just a small group of women who meet once in two weeks at the Com- munity House ,to make layettes for babies. Whose babies? _____ Preferably poor babies, whose mothers are unable to buy large outfits of expensive clothes, or too busy to make them. These layettes consist of just a few necessary garments, practically de- signed, yet carefull.y and daintily executed. The materials are boy.Hh^ at whole sale, the labor is freely given, and the finished product is sold at cost, or whatever above that is possible to the purchaser. There are no dues for membership in the Babies' Friendly, but a mite-box is kept, for voluntary contributions, sometimes sup- plemented by larger donations. One woman gathered old news- papers from far and near, and having sold them, devoted the pro- ceeds to the babies' cause. Since then, others have pledged money similarly earned by direct sale. The Babies' Friendly is an outgrowth of the Infant Welfare movement, and was suggested for Wilmette adoption by Miss Ben- ton, who last October, gave a charming talk at Logan school Parent- Teacher association. Miss Benton belongs to a group that has been working for many years, on the south side of Chicago, and this group kindly donated a complete layette. Anyone who has made baby-clothes knows what fascinating- work it is ; and here is a field for both skilled and inexperienced workers. For those who do not sew there are bootees and caps to crochet, and wash cloths to knit. And perhaps when your own sewing is done, you have some odds and ends of lace left over, just enough for the neck or sleeves of a baby's dress. Bring them with you, and come to the Community House, 545 Park avenue, Thurs- day, March 18, from 1:30 to 5 p. m. and every other Thursday fol- lowing. Further information may be received from Mrs. Donald Maxwell, chairman of the Babies' Friendly. The Woman's club had the honor of entertaining several prominent north shore women at their regular 'monthly luncheon on Wednesday of this week. Anions their guests were Mrs. Martin Kent Xortham, president of the X'orth End club ; Mrs. Morris L. Greeley, vice-president of the Win- net ka Woman's club; Mrs. \V. A. Locy, president of the D. A.

The hostesses for the dav were Mesdames D. M. Gallie, Mrs. John Iliff. and Mrs. Helen Gage. During the business session, two "resolutions were passed, one favor- ing the reservation of the Wilmette Beach tickets for Wilmette people, first, before selling them to outsiders; •the second to read as follows: "Wh'ereas, The School Board can- not increase our teacher's salaries on our present income, atid whereas, the shortage of teachers makes them â- Welcome other t places at higher salaries, be it resolved, that the Wil- mette Woman's club endorse the movement of the Parent-Teacher association of Wilmette, and th£ School Board to increase the fund for this purpose by a vote of the village." The program was a most enjoyable one. there being delightful piano se- lections by Mrs. Grace Sloan Fuller- ton, and a most interesting lecture on, "The India of Kipling and Ta- gore" by Dhan Gopal Mukerji, a native of India. â€"*â€" A very enoyable evening passed too quickly for the Wilmette Unit of the Patriotic Service League Mon- day night. A "farewell" party was given at the Community House for Miss Mabel Davies, former director of the girls, who is returning to her home in North Dakota, and for Mrs. Blough. director of the Evanston unit. The first part of the evening was spent in playing games and sing- ing. Then refreshments were served in the dining room, the tables being very attractively decorated in yellow and green signifying youth and the bluebird napkins expressed happiness. At this time Miss Davies and Mrs. Blough were each presented with a silver spoon as token of the girl's ap- preciation, Mrs. Theodore Er--r of the Community House committee and Mrs. Samuel H. Vow ell of the Philanthropy department of the Woman's club were als-o guests of the evening.
