nxtous foiWSF Ramm§ Guarantee as Season Opens THE t,AKg THE advance sale of ticketsâ€"the coupon booksâ€"for the coming Ra- vinia season is now being carried on with a house to house canvas in all the towns from Evanston to Wau- kefcan. In some of the towns the pre- vious quotas have been nearly reached but in others the ticket sales have never aone so badly and the splendid working committees have met with discourage- ments. This state of affairs is beyond belief in a district as high class as the north shore towns." . Ravinia is now an established institu- tion and famous all over the worldâ€"it is not a philanthropy. Many people have such an absurd idea but only because they never go and live from sesaon to season in smug ignorance, to their own great loss I The days of "pioneering" for Ravinia are over. The campaign committee need only to remind the; nortli shore residents annually that Ravinia is a civic duty, the neglect of which re- flects upon the individual citizen no mat- ter what his means. People thought nothing a few weeks back of buying theatre tickets for such long run plays as "Lightning" and "Sal- ly" weeks in advance and at grand opera prices! The Ravinia company asks only that youi^uy the gate admission tickets in advance^ (and at reduced rates at that) as a definite money guarantee ana pledge of your supportâ€"a loan of less than thirty days, that's allâ€"and for which you receive your full moneys worth many times overt! When the ticket solicitor cemes to your door, Mr. and Mrs. North Shore Resident, please remember that she is your neighbor and she is giving her time unselfishly because of her civic pride and because she is a woman who stands for culture and better things. Don't treat her like a peddlar and if you really cannot afford to advance money for your Ravinia recreations tell her so frankly. Don't be disagreeable and say you are are not "interested" because if that were true you would not be living in these beautiful suburbs, where we have fresh clean air, fine schools, refined neighbors and artistic surroundings M You would be living, instead, in an ugly stuffy apart- ment in the city or a dark block house wTthTTliny back yafdrfuH of ashes am clothes lines of clothes and you would send your children into the streets to play and to the amusement parks to "shoot the shoots" and see unspeakable "^vaSviire for their summer recreations! But you live where you can send your children for ten whole days during the summer to a beautiful wooded garden, where they have a playground, without restrictions, can be taught how to listen intelligently to our great symphony or- chestra and enjoy varied programs of taste and benefits inestimably The com- ing season will be the greatest m the history of "RavTfiiaâ€"world famous sing- ers and conductors, and the Chicago Symphony in concerts as well as opera. __Mrs. William Sutherland of Glencoe, is president of the Ravinia Club > year; Mrs. Ralph Poole of first vice-president; Mrs. Annette R.
