November 12, 1926 WILMETTE LIFE 3 ' GUESTS SWARM TEMPLE AT DEDICATION FETE I Kickers Raise Howl of Joy at Fred's 'Spread' The Boosters and Kickers club, a group of local business and professional men, which is accustomed to rally about the festive board in Fred Miller's Central Cafeteria at nootltime every day, enjoyed a genuine feast Thursday of last week when Ye Genial Host spread before the assembled guests some ·r eal Turkey with all the trimmings as a sort of foretaste of what may he expected from the kitchens of the celrhrated eating place on Thanksgiving Day. Before eating, the club membership was heard to boost the anticipated "feed," but all reverted to form during the toothpick course, allowing that Mr. Miller feeds too well. Dr. R. M. Evan s, exalted kick of the Kickers' club, reported early Friday morning that all hands had survived the "ordeal" and were kicking as per usual. Armistice Speaker "CAPT. APPWACK,"..
