At the Zonta Club luncheon, at the Ral%gh Hotel Wednesday evening, the entertaining guest was one of the club’s own members, Miss Hettie P. Anderson, general secretary of the Young ‘Wom- en’s Christian Association. Miss An- derson gave an address, speaking par- ticularly of the program and accom- plishments of the Girl Reserves, an auxiliary organization of the Y. W.C. A. The stated instances of things under- taken and accomplished by the Re- serves certainly fully justified two , “To face life squar and “To find and to give the best,” quoted by Miss Anderson as the slogan and the purpose of this particular branch of the many useful and service-giving sections of the association. In addition to the work and service, the major motives of the junior girls making up this group, they find time for healthful, pleasurable sport and play and group association that pro- motes sociability and builds up friend- ships. Delightful vacations are en- joyed at Camp Kahlert, given and maintained especially for the young girls, as well as entertainments and meetings held from time to time at the general local headquarters. Miss An- derson’s portrayal of the activities of this group left no doubt as to the very worth-while work the Y. W. is doing. Other guests present were Mrs. Leo Rnechtel of San Francisco and Miss Ida M. Larson of Washington, both| of whom were being entertained by Miss Mary W. Sigman. It was decided that the club hold its Summer picnic next Wednesday at the home of Miss Sue Elizabeth Gantt on the Severn River. This will take the place of the usual luncheon. Elizabeth Harris was made chairman of transportation, and cars will be provided for taking all members who can attend. It is the policy of the Zonta Club to carry on all through the Summer, and, regardless of the torrid weather, a splendid at- tendance is maintained, signifying that the members thoroughly enjoy this weekly getting together. Quite a num- ber are now_on vacations, or planning them for a little later on in the Sum- mer. At present Miss Frances Gutelius is traveling abroad; Miss Genevieve | Hendricks is now on the sea en Toute| to Paris and other places across the water. The members of the Department of Potomac Woman's Relief Corps and their friends spent a very delightful afternoon and evening at Marshall Hall Saturday, the occasion being their an- nual excursion for entertaining the Mount Alto boys. Lunch was prepared in the morning by Mrs. Cary, depart- ment president, and Mrs. Davis, chair- man of the executive board, and other members. On arriving at Marshall Hall tables were selected under the beauti- ful sturdy oak trees and a most pal- atable lunch was served, consisting of chicken sandwiches, potato salad, olives, sweet pickles, homemade cake, ice cream, pop and cigarettes. A picture of the Civil War and World War vet- erans was taken while they were seated for lunch. After lunch a group picture was taken of the ladies who served the luncheon. Many World War veterans attended.
