LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, JULY 4, 1918 Soctal H ap per, }tOe 1Nor the otore f~y u k lisey • INDEPENDENCE DAY this year has a significance more profound than at any time since July 4, 1776. A great number from the north shore have:planned to attend the soldiers' athletic carnival at Camp Grant, others are going to the Great Lakes, although their big celebration was held on Wednesday afternoon. At Camp Grant there will be a great military spectacle, unique of its kind, serving as a sort of "send off" to the Eigthy-sixth Division, -an army corps, which will probably soon be on its way to France, under command of General Charles Martin. The proceeds from this affair will be devoted to providing this divisioni with athletic equipment for use over there. There will be a parade, by the entire division, an exhibition of "bronchobusting", a baseball game between Camnp Grant aid Fort Dodge, boxing contests, the Illinois Centennial pageant, and fireworks, as attractions; and aside from all of those highly exciting things the soldiers will be at liberty to escort their visitors around the trench area, -rifle range, Y. M. C. A. and K. of C. huts, bakeshops, and other points of interest in the camp. ABOUT SEVENTY-FIVE DOLLARS was cleared at the lawn fete given at the home of Mrs. Frederick Mason, 1030 Green wood avenue, on Friday afternoon and evening of last week, by the Sunshine band. The proceeds will be sent to the French orphans. The grounds were very attractively decorated with fancy booths and Japanese lanterns were strung up. Everytlhing from pretty and beautifully dressed dolls, toys, and fancy articles to flowers and ice cream was sold, much to the joy and satisfaction to the twelve little misses who took full charge of the affair. The membership of the Sunshine club includes the following: x Marjorie Mason Edna Varney Margaret Varney Marjorie Smith Ruth McNam3,ra Vivian Varney Marguerite Lundberg Edith Moore Ethel Sturgeon Marion Meinall Lillian Kroll Ruth Moore Smileage books are to be good at Ravinia Park. Soldiers and sailors may use Smileage book coupons for purchasing admission to the Park, which opened last Saturday night,. It is the one' exception in the country to ,the' rule of limiting the books to the government liberty theaters built inside the training camps. The ruling was brought about through the efforts of Mrs. Bruce McLeish and Mrs. C. T. Mitchell, joint chairmen of the Ravinia Park entertainment comniittee. * It will benefit the jackies at the Great Lakes naval training station most, as there 'ire"'between'five and ten thousand dollars worth of smileage books at 'the station. The jackies have little chaice to use the coupons, as no liberty theater has been built on the reservation. The new arrangement will enable them to utilize the Smileage their friends send them. Last Sunday was "Soldiers' Day" in .Sparta, Wis., and all of us here on the north shore are extremely interested in the celebration, because so many of our boys are members of the 161st Artillery Brigade, which is in trainiinig as Camp Robinson, at prSespeenctia.l services with appropriate music were held in all the churches. Every soldier was a dinner guest at some home. At tw0-thirty o'clock a regimental band concert was given in the courthouse square, and in the evening an open air union patrioticI service was held on the lawn. The idea seems prevalent that the stay of these troops at the camp is limited, and it is a question of only a few weeks when they'will be on the move for more serious work for Uncle Sam on the firing line in France. Iieutenant and Mrs. Lawrence Tower of W acq, Texas, are spending a few days as the guests of Lieutenant Tower's parents in Evanston.
