The last Friday afternoon program of the year at the Congressional Club, May 23, promises to be one of the very best. Dr. Franco Bruno Averardi, lec- turer for the Institute of International Education, and visiting professor at ‘Western Reserve University at Cleve- land, Ohio, will speak on “The Women of the Italian Renaissance.” This prominent young -scholar was born in Turin, Italy, of a well known Piedmontese family and after receiving the doctorate in_both letters and phil- osophy at the University of Florence he entered the diplomatic service and took active part in the League of Na- tions' Conference and in the Naval Conference here in Washington. Later he left diplomacy and devoted himself to literature and art, lecturing in Heidelberg, Germany; Florence, Italy and in other countries of Europe, be- sides publishing books and magazine articles. Dr. Averardi has recently been appointed visiting professor to the Car- negie Endowment for International Peace in Western Reserve University. The lecture will be illustrated and the usual large attendance is expected for this last meeting of the club which closes a most interesting and success- ful Gyear. Tea will be served by the following hostesses: Mrs. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Mrs. James Watson, Mrs. Frederic C. Walcott, Mrs. Arthur Vandenberg, Mrs. Charles’ Waterman, Mrs. Josiah Van Orsdel, Mrs. Albert H. Vestal, Mrs. An- derson H. Walters, Mrs. J. Mayhew Wainwright, Mrs. Richard J. Welch, Mrs. Wallace H.

Mrs. Charles Linthicum, wife of Rep- resentative Linthicum of Baltimore, was patroness for the program at the Con- gressional Club last Friday afternoon, which was preceded by a luncheon for the artist. Dr. Katherine Gallagher of Goucher College made the interesting observa- tion in her lecture Friday afternocon that what she styled the “American Type of Mind” had been developed by the pioneer life of the Nation. Taking as an illustration the period of 1835, when Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin formed the frontier, she read from the diary of an Episcopal bishop, who itin- erated in. this region, a graphic descrip- tion of the hardships, privations and dangers of the life which, developed the hardihood, self reliance, initiative and perseyerance of the pioneers. In this rugged life i;"e was no place for art, she said, and America’s ideal became the love of prosperity, not beauty. Dr. Gallagher denies that Americans love money—but they do love prosperity, she says. If parents want their children to love art they must encourage them to study it. Miss Elsa Baklov, accompanied by her sister, Mrs. Virginia Castelle, gave & beautiful programe«of vocal music, in- cluding the productions of many famous composers. ‘The tea table was unusually attractive and many guests were presented to the :)r‘tlists by the president, Mrs. Porter H. e. iy The Thames River of England is \I)e- ing heavily restocked with ;efl:h. e, bream, roach and gudgeon.
