OHNER, . l resid e nt M thl· B oarrl of Local Im. l)l'OH·nwnb; M th e Village of 'Wilmette Architectural Part of Evanston Art Center JVill Be One of Finest There is plenty of precedent for working out, in the architectural division of the Evanston Art center's proposed library, one of the · finest sorts of architectural libraries to be found anywh_ere around Evanston. With this asserted opinion, Meyer J. Sturm, representing the department of architecture in the project, is preparing t :> begin the actual work of collecting the material for this department when warm weather is over and architects are back at their desks for a new season. The plan has been brought ~o the Evanston North Shore Architects' association hy l\lr. Sturm in an informal manner, and while no formal nor official action has been taken, the suggestion has been favorably receiv~d and it is Mr. Sturm's opinion that there will be complete cooperation of this organization in this particular phase of art <4C_nter activity. It is the desire of Mr. Sturm that there he put into this particular collection only material of permanent value. Books relating to the history of architecture and evolution of its design, classified illustrations from architectural periodicals and other sources, wilt best form the bulk of this collection. he holds. Collections like those in the Burnham library and Newberry library have a plan worth fotlowing, he states, and with comparatively tittle expense and effort a valuable collection of their sort might be brought together in Evanston. The Evanston Art center recently came into being under joint efforts of the ] ulia E. Ferguson memorial committee, the art committees of the· Universit\' guild and the Edward MacDowell Association of the Allied. Arts , , 11 " T. G. Risley to Take Place of Sec. Davis . at Swedish Festival There has been change in the speaker to make the principal address at th~ Swedish Societies' Old People's home picnic Sunday in Evanston. James J. Davis, secretary of tabor, who accepted the invitation to speak understanding that the date was being made for the evening, later discovered that the local festivities take place in the afternoon, at which time he is slated to speak elsewhere. He is sending as substitute Theodore G. Risley, solicitor of the department of labor< at Washington, who comes highly recommended as speaker. · Mr. Risley has served in legaLoffices and was special counsel for the office of comptroller of currency during the incumbency of Gen. Ch~rles G. Dawes of Evanston. He has been employed by national -and state republican committees as a campaign speaker for years, and has traveled in Europe for the purpose of studying industri<~.l and economic conditions. ~Irs .
