Every Wil- mette Methodist should read the Ad yocate, was his conclusion. The Ladies' Aid held their monthly meeting on Thursday of this week. The ladies of the first division, of which Mrs. C. A. Lundberg is chair- man, served the luncheon. The Aid is to hold a "Rummage Sale" on November 18 and 19 and to all Meth- odists in Wilmette they are saying: "We want anything that you do not want". Call up Mrs. J. C. Manne- rud and tell her what you have. The Methodist boys and girls en- joyed an old-fashioned Hallowe'en romp, near where the church bell rings on Lake avenue, last Friday night. The fun that a few less than a hundred boys and girls can have and the noise they can make, and still be as good as though they were in Sunday school is wonderful and reflects great credit on those having this affair in charge. When the boys and*'girls came there was a great display of apples and dough- nuts, but when they left two hours later there were just as many apples and doughnuts but no display. There were ghosts in some dark corners •who told wonderful tales of fortunes to come to those who will make them come by their own efforts. Every- one present had a good time. "Jesus' Favorite Bpok of Scripture" is the subject for the sermon that Dr. Rapp will preach next Sunday morning at ll o'clock. Dr. Rapp teaches the Men's Bible class in the Sunday school at 9:45 o'clock. The Epworth league young folks are making preparations for their Win-My-Chum campaign, beginning the week of November 14. At their business meeting last week they elected Mr. William Harrent chair- man of their social department be- cause they know that William, better known among the young folks as "Bill" is a social being and is strong for social doings. , After performing in rehearsal to the satisfaction of director Watson last Thursday evening, our chorus choir made merry at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Hanawalt, with games and refreshments. Mr. and Mrs. Watson, of Hubbard Woods, were not the least merry of the par- ty. Director Watson is real human. BAPTIST CHURCH The services for the Sundays in November are planned as follows: November 1, Communion service with receptfion of new members. The pastor will give a short devotional address. November 14. the sermon will be given by Dr. A. H. Harnly. The last two Sundays will be devot- ed to the Ter-Centenary of the Land- ing of the Pilgrims. On November 21 Mr. Stifler will take as his theme, "Thank God for the Pilgrims", and on November 28, "Roger Williams- Puritan". Work is now being rushed on the Baptist church building. The steel girders for supporting the main floor have been delivered and the boiler room is nearing completion. The Building committee at its meet- ling this week let a contract for the ' cut stone required in the building, and the laying of the walls will pro- ceed now without interruption. The November meeting of the Woman's society of the church will be held Friday afternoon with Mrs. W. M. Burns, 72f Laurel avenue. At the afternoon session Mrs. John Chapman, representing the Wom- an's Baptist Home Mission society, will tell of the work being done by that 'society for Negro girls in the Old South. This is one of the oldest and rewarding branches of their ser- vice. Luncheon will be served at 12:30 o'clock. The Official Boards of the church and the Advisory Council will meet for their November session on Tues- day evening, November 9, with Mr. and Mrs. S. C. Bennett, 1321 Green- wood avenue. . CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH The witches and goblins and ghosts, were thereâ€"at the Hallowe- 'en party given at the Congregation- al church, Friday, October 29. The fun started about 7 o'clock and the most peculiar looking creatures be- gan to arrive, creatures old and young, hideous and beautiful, but all were light of foot and strong of lung. Noise? You could hear the cheers two blocks away. One of the most interesting features of the even- ing was the bobbing for apples which was indulged in by the older group. They didn't go "bobbing"â€"they went "diving"â€"and most of the heads went in "over the top". There follow- ed a great hair-drying contest among the girls. The evening's repast con- sisted of apples galore and plenty of cider and doughnuts. "Do they really have a dinner and program lige that every month?" was overheard at the November Church Night dinner which was held Wed- nesday evening at the Congregation- al church. The dinner was a chicken- pie dinner served by the Central Avenue Circle, whose reputation for it's good cooks is widely known. The program which followed this delici- ous feast and which set the standard higher than ever, was in charge of the Commission on Church Life and Work, Mr. A. H. Howard, chairman of the commission acting as the toastmaster for the evening. The speaker of the evening, Dr. Ernest Bourner Allen of Oak Park, lived up > to his fine reputation as a speaker and delighted everyone there. He spoke on "The Church Today" and mentioned in his talk the part the young people take in the work of the church. Dr. Allen is an authority on young people's work, and an ardent admirer of all young people, who know him. The young women who waited on the tables, and who seemed to enjoy their newly acquired profession, were: Alice Watson, Florence Butz, Hazel Russel, Ruth Gates, Edith Pearson, Helen Smith, Esther Dun- shee, Helen Irvine, Marjory Crabb, Minnie Hughes, Marion Tilt, Lillian Billow, Lorraine MxCue, Florence Wray, Frances Scheidenhelm, Kath- erine Scheidenhelm, Mary Singleton, Frances Goodhue, Louise Goodhue. The Sunday Morning service this week will consist of a Communion service with a Communion address on "The Reflection o"f Love", by Mr. Lloyd, and a reception of new mem- bers. ST. AUGUSTINE'S PARISH A delegation of St. Augustine's workers attended the meeting held at the Cathedral in Chicago Wednes- day evening to hear Bishop Anderson announce his plans for the coming year in the Diocese of "Chicago. The cathedral was crowded, there being delegations present from every par- ish in the diocese. Rev. Charles L. Street of the Cathedral, Chicago, told St. August- ine's congregation on Sunday morn- ing something of the splendid work of the Episcopal church in the prisons, jails, public institutions and Rescue mission in Cook county, giv- ing personal instances of his own work and that of his staff of assist- ants. As the prisons are becoming over-crowded, especially with boys and young men, there is great need for increasing the work. St. Augustine's people are greatly interested in the meeting to be held in the Byron C. Stolp school Thurs- day evening, November 11, at 8 o'clock, when Mr. Frank McKibben, director of the New Plan for Religi- ous Education in Evanston, will de- scribe the' plan and tell of its suc- cess. There will probably be pro- posals for some plans of religious education in Wilmette in connection with the public school system in the near future and we should become familiar with the details of the plan operative in Evanston. The rector of St. Augustine's was the special preacher at the Cathedral in Chicago last Sunday morning. . The women of St. Augustine's are serving luncheon in the Parish house today at 12:15 o'clock. St. Augustine's Vestry met last Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock and decided to call a dinner meeting of the leaders in St. Augustine's prob- ably Tuesday, November 9, at 6:30 o'clock, for a conference on intensi- fying and extending the work of the parish, ADVERTISING IS PROGRESS m Send for this beautiful Miller Library Lamp $-| E?

If he concludes that he will derive little personal bene- fit, he remains at home. But that same man will cast his ballot in the interests of nation and state, community and family. He pays taxes to maintain streets and alleys for common use. He bears his share of the cost of health, fire and police protection; for schools and library-all as matters of community welfare. And yet, wherever the Church is neglected, the exercise of the ballot becomes futile; taxes are wasted; schools become the playthings of politi- cians; fire protection is in adequate; pol- ice protection is extended to malefactors; disease, crime and vice become rampant. The Church unattended- like the ballot uncast--is merely unem- ployed power for righteousness. Church attendance multiplies the power of the ballot, because it binds us together as neighbors for common service, mutual helpfulness and right living.
