B. Bevis, resigned. In accordance with the motion made at the last meeting, wome press clip- pings were handed in. l Mirs, Anderson gave a more de- Luruer. tailed report from the district con. vention, giving good methods of work along various lines. It was voted to make all ministers and their wives honorary members, with their consent. We regret to say we have not a minister’'s wife in our union. But we feel sure it is not from lack of sympathy in the cause. Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Adair were appointed a committee with the president to select a superintendent for Sunday schools and to arrange tor best plans for observing temper- aunce Sundays in the Sunday school. It is suggested that Sunday schocl tcachers begin two weeks before. hand and have their pupils look up something on the subject. Mrs. Jennings finds it necessary to give up the flower mission work, so Mrs. Greer was appointed superin- tendent. A committee was appointed to see as to the advisability of at- tempting an organization among the colored women. Mrs, Beebe was appointed super- intendent of prison work. Mrs. Minns paid her dues, and Mrs. Beebe paid dues for her daughter, Mrs. Ruby Bridges, one time president of the Ccala Union. The following clipping was read: “For nation-wide prohibition the lower house of the Michigan Legisla. to the people an amendment to the constitution prohibiting the sale of liquor anywhere in the United States, Another clipping contained some sood advice to young people and also to parents. They should make com- rades of their boys and girls and linow who their associates are. Keep tLem at home as much as possible, especially at nights. Provide em- ployment and amusement for them. And please let the press reporter say in this connection: Do our fa- thers and mothers realize that our beys and girls are not going to have any playgrounds in a year or so lcnger? Even now they have to play tall in the street, which endangers windows, passersby and very small children. But our boys must have somewhere to play. And would it not be wise, parents, when your boy breaks a window, to encourage him to pay for the damage? All boys in the crowd are to some extent re- sponsible and no doubt would be willing to help pay. In this way they can be taught to respect other peo. ple’s rights and grow up law keep- ers instead of lawbreakers. But “I am a digressin’” (Samantha Allen). To return to the report, our next *meeting is planned to be a matrons’ «medal contest to be held on May 27, { The place will be decided on later.! Nirs.

O' ' CHOOSING THE VISITING CARD| i Many Kinds to Select From, and It ' Really Becomes Simply a Matter i of One's Own Choice, You drop into a stationer's and ask in a casual tone for new visiting cards. The salesman inquires: “What kind, madam?’ Hundreds of cards are whirled at you. You are informed ! that Mrs. Murray-Lothrop never uses old English lettering; you are assured that Mrs. Rutledge-Harmon prefers her cards to read with three names; those of her husband and herself and of her daughter. Your husband does not wish to use his middle name in full, but the man across the counter lifts his eyebrows and tells you that initials may have been in style when George Washington was the first gen- tleman of America, but they are not used now by anyone who pretends to know social conventions, When you have decided on the en- tirely correct thing, which is a thin square bit of white pasteboard with your name in full, engraved in block letters, shaded with the address be- neath in the corner, then you will in- | stantly wonder if it would not have been wiser to have ordered shaded old PAGE THREF irs.

Office at ebureh ken the place of plain old English. The public will answer ¢hat question by saying that block letters are neater, cleaner and easier to read. What about your husband’s cards? asks the man across the counter, Your first impulse 18 to wonder why your husband cannot attend to his own cards, but when you are reminded that it is in better taste for the cards of the family to correspond in size and lettering you turn to the task with more confidence. You choose an ob- long bit of pasteboard with his name in full preceded by Mr. and followed in the lower corner with his address. You sigh. This task is done for the year, you think. At the moment of re- lief the man across the counter asks Iwhelher all of your husband’s cards shall bear the name of his club. Now this is the one question for him to de- cide. There is also the question of the bill—it is a wise plan to let him de- cide on paying that, too—as his share of the bargain. MAKING THE HAT ORIGINAL Many Good Features About Millinery That Is Put Together by One's Own Hands, Never has it been easier to trim your own hat. In the days when it was necessary to adjust a bandeau to make and fasten in rolls and rosettes of maline and then to arrange on the top of the hat quantities of compli- cated trimming the task of making a home-made hat was arduous, and the results usually impossible, But for the last few ycars—this season espe- 1 clally—it is an easy enough matter for a person with a distinct idea of the effect she wants to produce to trim a hat in a satisfactory and pro- fesslonal way. Everything today depends on the line of the hat itself, in the absence of built-up trimming, so first seiect a becoming shape. Then, with the ex- quisite feathers, plumes and orna- ments of plumetis, the task is easy. The only dicappointment now in the homemade hat is that it is no bargain- counter product. It often costs as much as that found trimmed in the millinery shop, for good feathers and shapes with the right line cost a pretty penny. Iowever, the woman who wants to be original can be so 1 at a smaller expenge if she trims her own hat than if she purchased a real: | ly diaUl]ulH hat ready trimmed.
