Mrs. ; the American Citizenship Com-' Curry Moreno had arranged the ! Mrs. Jean Baillod,~ chairman of mittee of the club, to whom the meeting was turned over at the conclusion of the regular busi- ness session. Mrs. Lee Goddard, president, presided, and there was first heard the reports of the treasurer and recording secretary, which were approved. Various committee chairmen were then heard from, and several announcements of parti- cular interest were made, es- pecially the one by Mrs. George Mills White, who stated that be- ginning on January 22nd there would be a series of art exhibits at the club. The first artist to be presented in thig series will be David New- ton, well-known locally, whose works will be on view from January 22nd to January 30th. The other exhibits to follow will feature the paintings of Christo- pher Clark, Jean Kirke, Bill Hen- ley, Elvira Riley, Thomas Bouch- ard and Joseph Martinez. Two of these, Jean Kirke and Joseph Martinez, are Key Westers. This series should prove of ex- ceptional interest here, and the announcement was received with a great deal of enthusiasm. Mrs. Delio Cobo, chairman of the finance committee, an- nouneed that the Club will sponsor a Conch Supper to be held on January 22nd from 6 to 8 p. m. at the clubhouse, to which the public is invited, and which supper will feature a menu of typical Key West dishes. Two new members were intro- duced, Mrs. Vance Boswell and Mrs. James M. Calloway. Also, several guests were introduced including Mrs. Warren Austin, of Burlington, Vt., whose husband is. United States delegate to the United Nations Assembly. Other ladies, from many states, were also guests at yesterday’s meet- ing. These included Mrs. J. Alden Morse, Bar Harbor,* Maine; Mrs Oliver A. Smith, of the Naval Hospital in Key West; Mrs. H. M, McCutchen, Minneapolis, Minn,; Mrs. Harlen D. Rowe, Chapel Hill, N. C.; Mrs. C. T. Card, Rahway, N. J.; Mrs. Grace F. Rutherford, Washington, D.

Hopkins, Hartland, Wis, Decorations for the clubrooms are always beautifully done for these meetings, but yesterday flowers, and they included a spectacularly. colorful arrange- ment of various rotons, a bowl of scarlet bougainvillaea, and a special decoration in the form of some white waxy clusters of flowers called “Star of Bethle- hem,” which had been flown from Capetown, S. Africa to Miss. Etta Patterson. The club members pealed to by Miss Patterson to aid her in the securing of shells, sea-fans, corals and other ma- rine articles to be used as_ table decorations for the very large Women’s Club Federation dinner to be held upstate in the spring, Miss Patterson being in charge of the table arrangements for this dinner. About fifteen hundred place settings will be necessary, and, as stated by Miss Patterson, this number indicates the large i quantity of shells, corals, ete., that it will be necessary to have. Mrs. Baillod, in opening her program, began: “There was a dream... that one day, men could express thoughts of their own choosing. There was a hope ok. that one day, men would walk through the streets at night unafraid. There was a prayer... his God, in his own Church. That dream, that hope, that prayer, became America.” She then introduced the guest speaker of the afternoon, J. Y. Porter IV, local attorney and former navy lieutenant, who gave a very brief but moving ad- dress on World Citizenship. Following Mr. Porter’s talk, a song entitled “We'll Work it Out Together,” composed by Dorothy Stewart, was sung by Lt. Com- mander Tony F. Schneider, and then Mrs. Goddard read the in- spiring “Guests at a Ground- Breaking.” , After the meeting the usual social hour was_ held in the din- ing room of the clubhouse, dur- ing which tea was served, and there were also varieties of sandwiches, fruit cake and icing- | topped cake provided for the guests by the Hospitality Com- mittee of the club, | The centerpiece of the gtea table was perfectly lovely, “and deserves special mention. It was an arrangement of soft lavender pandorea, clusters of tiny laven- der flowers, ferns jal and beautiful mauve bou- gainvillaea. vias “Q” Planes Thevejo, Hernando Hernandez, Edwin Alexander Jr., Dinora Boyez, Edward Gonzalez, Edith 'Gonzalez, Ramon Gurri, Ray Hanson, Mildred Hanson, Ubaldo Garcia, Alice Lencke, Jennie Louise Norris, George Winston, Myrtle Winston, Lil- lian Solem, Gladys Solem, Clar- ence Leven, Harold Lassick, Les- ter Clahr, Herbert Stern, Melvin i Lonnie Webb, Heyte B.

Orians is by avocation a “serious amateur” NOTHING SPECIAL By NINA PA TN It ‘is old-fashioned of me,.I know, and probably also unrea- sonable, but I cannot help being itated when people who don't now me well enough to call me y my first name nevertheless address me as “darling.” This objectionable practice is extremely prevalent. Seems like everybody greets everybody else, even their bitterest enemies, with this term of endearment. I saw two couples meet here in front of the newspaper office yesterday. Each of the four ad- ssed each of the other three ‘darling,’ with the accent on e first syllable and with voices } patched very high, for some reason I was entirely unable to figure out. Not only that. The other day I heard a young, single woman ad- iress a young, married man thus- ly: “Hel-lo, dar-ling.” The “hel” part of the “hello” was heavily accented as well as;the “dar” of ling.” Upon discreet investigation, I learned that the young married man was not the brother of the young ‘unmarried woman, nor was he an uncle or cousin, or in fact any kin at all. Furthermore, young single woman didn’t even know the young married mafi and his both for the first time scarcely three weeks ago. Be that as it may, no female of | any age whatever, unless she is blood kin of my husband, and re- gardless of how many years she has known him, had better come around addressing him as “dar- ling,” or she is going to be in for} a spot of trouble with, me. | The practice, as nearly as I can arn, stems from . Hollywood, | California, where a large number | of other objectionable things originate, including some movies I could mention. A young woman who worked | for some time there told me recently that that was one of the! things she liked so much about | the place—that she was so favor- ably impressed because some | man whom she didn’t know at all, | und whom she telephoned about a purely business matter, replied: ‘sO. K. darling. I will attend to i This she terms “charming” and ” and “casual.” Now I'd term it uncalled-for fa- miliarity and brassiness. To take sich a term of endearment, with all its connotations, and spread. it around indiscriminately on un- known people who call you on the telephone—very bad taste, to say the least, very bad taste, 1 very emphatically do not ap- prove of it.
