THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1920 ""•tMillMIHHMIIMH"" 0N attractive wedding is to be solemnized on Saturday even- ing of next week, at St. Augustine's church, when Miss Frances Elizabeth Nash, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Nash, formerly of Detroit, will become the bride of !Conant Wait of Kenwood. Rev. Hubert C. Carleton, assisted by Father Fleming of the Church of the Atonement, will read the ser- vice at 8:30 o'clock. A reception at the home of Mrs. Charles A. Wanner, 629 Central avenue, will follow the ceremony. Miss Frances Tolerton and Mrs. Donald M. Forgan of Chicago, will attend Miss Nash as maid and matron of honor. Little Julie Forgan will be flower girl. Mr. Cornelius Evans III. of Hudson, N. Y., will serve Mr. Wait as best man, and the following will be ushers: Messrs. William Edwards, Thomas Bishop and Franklin Callahan of Chicago. Upon their return from an extended wedding trip the young couple will make their home at 1148 E. Forty-fifth street, Chicago. Impish gamins scampering down the alley with the cellar door- way, jack-o' lanterns grinning out of the darkness, weird tamper- ings on the windowsâ€"only the moon can tell the real story of to- morrow evening's gayeties about town.. And meantime the vic- tims of these atrocities will be dining at pumpkin decorated tables and dancing in ballrooms adorned with autumn foliage and witch and black cat designs. A Harvest Home dinner dance will be held at the Ouilmette Country club tomorrow "evening, and everyone is to come en cos- tume. The children's Hallowe'en party is to be given this afternoon between the hours of 3:30 and 5 o'clock. Spooks, hobgoblins, Indians and witches will hover around corn stalks, autumn leaves and other woodland decorations under' the dim light of a golden harvest moon, dur- ing the first annual Hallowe'en party to be given at Community House to- morrow evening for all of the school boys of the village. There may be barnyard fowls and even live stock in evidence on this great occasion. All of the young chaps in town are bade to be at this meeting place at the exact hour of 8 o'clock. Promis- es of exciting games, and interesting contests, for which there will be prizes, are sure to make the affair more attractive. The Cock fight is generally a "scream". Two boys ait on the floor in the center of a six- foot circle with canes under their knees, their arms under 'the canes and their^hands clasped across their legs. The feet should be tied or held together. Then at the word "Go!" one tries to push the other out of the circle. Another game which always finds favor among the boys is to place two kitchen chairs with the seats facing each other. Put a broom through the handles of a clothes basket and rest it on the chairs just so that the basket will swing clear. The "brave one" sitting on the broom, his feet in the basket and a cane in his hand, must knock off four hats on the chair posts. | â€"*â€" It was with interest that we noted I that one of our residents, James G. Barber, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Barber, 621 Linden avenue, was ap- pointed grand marshall by Mayor Thompson, for the large parade held on Saturday last, in Chicago. Critics who reviewed the procession said that it was the largest and most in- teresting parade of its kind ever held in Chicago, and for over an hour and one-half a steady procession of beautifully decorated trucks and floats passed the reviewing stand and camera men. H. S. Firestone, pres- ident of the Firestone Tire and Rub- ber company, is the founder and sponsor of "Ship-by-Truck", which is a movement to promote shipping merchandise by motor truck and to secure better roads, bridges, etc. Hence the large parade last Saturday was in celebration ef the new Frank- lin-Orleans street bridge which has long been needed and has been under construction since 1917 at a cost of $2,000,000. Mrs. Morton L. Paterson, 925 Chestnut avenue, returned Wednes- day evening from Holland, Mich., whence she accompanied her sister, Mrs. James McLean and infant daughter, who have been guests here, last week. â€"•â€" Several members of the North Shore Golf club entertained with a table or two of guests at the lunche- on and bridge given Wednesday afternoon.
