■;;$K- THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1917 WILMETTE WOMAN IS GIVEN STATE HONOR Mist Mary E. Quayle Divides First Prize in Illinois Patriotic Poetry Contest. STUDENT AT UNIVERSITY Wins Honor as a Member of the Junior Class at the U. of C. Red Cross News By Mr*. B, F. Broun The honors in ihe patriotic poetry- contest of the Chicago Woman's club were shared by two north shore wo- men last week. Miss Mary E. Quayle, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred R. Quayle, 38 Crescent place, Wilmette, and Mrs. Florence Kiper Frank, 1168 Hamptondale road, Win- netka, received the first prize of fifty dollars. "The club offered a first prize of fifty dollars," said Mrs. V. K. Spicer, chairman of the contest committee, "but it happened that there was really no choice between Miss Quayle's and Mrs. Frank's contributions. Both are excellent, so we were obliged to di- vide the prize and give each the sum of twenty-five dollars." Miss Quayle's poem is called "America at War." Miss Quayle is a junior at the University of Chi- cago. ; Mrs. Frank's proem is called "America Beloved." Mrs. Frank is a graduate of the University of Chi- cago. The contest was limited to the State of Illinois, and many towns were represented in the contest list. The second prizes were awarded to Mrs. Helen Coale "Crew of Kvans- ton and John S. Hobson of Chicago. The following poems divided the first prize: The knitting committee is present at.the surgical dressing shop on Cen- tral avenue every Tuesday evening from 7:30 ot 9:30 o'clock, to teach knitting and to give out yarn. They are present in the interest of the knitters all day, every Saturday. No yarn is given out at the Red Cross shop except on Tuesday evenings and on Saturdays. Yarn may be pur- chased there on any day, when there is yarn in stock. Those who wish to make surgical dressings and cannot give time to it during the day have the opportunity of working at the shop every Tues- day evening from 7:30 to 9:30 o'clock, when teachers are always present, Last week there were 695 dressings' made. Good--but not enough for a town like Wilmette. The attendance of workers has increased most grati- fyingly, but there is always room for more. The work at the sewing room goes steadily on, with a somewhat recon- structed schedule, because of the re- i turn o fthe club season. There is plenty of material and a great deal of work. Workers are always wel- come and needed.

Village by village they are gathered, Farmhouse by farmhouse! The summons touches out in the night and reaches them, Reaches them in high cities--^ America is inarching! And endlessly over my heart they are marching And the thunder of it is in my ears Forever Marching, Marching, The young men of America. They are going--where? What dim event moves them, The hope of what ending? The eart his riven, Riven and shaken. The marching sun moves in the sky to some large endeavor, In the heavens the windy moon strives, The prairies are shaken. Marching, relentlessly, forever-- Whither? What word? Gather up your meaning! Passionate, far-flung land, gather up your meaning! Vivid, beloved, flame with your mean- ing! The oceans wait. Thunders of a people are about us. Youth over the fra-flung land is reaching. What is the song of their coming? What is the song of their coming? Call as with trumpets, Call as with the blare of many trumpets, Speak from the mountain tops, Shout out of the thunders, America! AMERICA AT WAR. By Mary E. Quayle. America, the time at last is here-- The testing. Rank on rank the surges rise As the wind drives pale clouds across the skies. Still changing and increasing yelsr by year. The ancient forms of right and wrong appear, The pagan justice and long sacrifice Grown cold upon the altar, o'er there dies The wrong repented. Myriads draw near The magic glow of promise. Power above Who gave our land the name of lib- erty. We would put factions down and by thy love Show perfect in the testing. We would see Rise phoenixlike from ashes of the past, White Freedom, that shall wear the crown at last. HOT WATER The daily business of the house can't be conducted without it. You can cook water to the requisite heat over a fire, of course --if time an conven- ience are of no ac- count. You can also have enough for a bath in a few minutes if, in your kitchen, there's a TANK WATER HEATER Its fuel is gas. Its high efficiency is at- tested by the thou- sands in use.
