This parlor has been doing remarkably well in'view of the fact that up to last week it had not been yisited by a grand officer. The banquet that was tendered on the night of they2lst of August to Miss Eliza D. Keith, and president of the Native Daughters of the Golden West, was onc of the most interesting and noteworthy events that has been known in this order for a number of years. It was unique in this—that it was not the outpouring of the parlor of which she is a member, but it was more than a hundred of her per- sonal friends, who represented all of the local parlors and many of those in the bay countles, and from some even as far as Sacramento. The cafe in which it was glven was decorated in several shades of green, the favorite color of the guest of honor. Miss Jda M. Kervan, the toast- mistress, opened the banquet with appro- priate remarks on the occasion of so many being gathered around the festal board, and congratulated the order on | having elected Miss Keith to the office of grand president. Among those who re- sponded to_toasts were Grand Secretary Laura_J. Frakes, Past Grand President Lena H. Mills, Grand Treasurer Amanda Hammerley, Grand Trustee, Kathryn Mc- Gough, Deputy Grand Presidents Hattie A. Burke, Nellie Boge, Emma Thierbach, Agnes Lunstedt and Alice Munson; Past Grand President Mrs. Ema Gett, Mary Noonan, Dr. Florence Temple, Dr. Bolde- mann and Dr. Kroetz. Miss Keith in re- sponding to “The Native Daughters and Our Order” feelingly expressed her ap- preciation of the love amd loyalty of her friends and spoke of the enthusiasm that should prevail in the order on its possi- bility as a factor for the advancement of the Interests of the State. She referred in glowing terms to the receptions that had been accorded her during the officlal visits she had already made. She spol of her plans for the intellectual and fra- ternal good of the order, and asked for the hearty co-operation of all loyal Na- tive Daughters. She also spoke hope- fully of the prospects of a Native Daugh- | ters’ Home under the direct control of the Grand Parlor. After paying a touch- ing tribute to the sick and absent she closed with “God be with us till we meet egain.” Dufln% the evening Miss Keith was presented by her rrlengs an elegant gold watch as & token of thelr admira- tion of her as an officer and love of her as a sister. THE EASTERN STAR. On the 1st of August Olive Branch Chap- ter had a delightful at home in its hall which was attended by almost the entire membership and a large number of visit- ors. The affalr was under the supervision of Mesdames Straus, Schantz, Medelsohn, Blumberg and Rohrbacher. The pro- gramme that was presented was first class in every particular. It included an instrumental solo by Mrs. Lad, fancy dance, Miss Myrtle Mayer; recitation, a patriotic one, accompanied with soft plano | selections emphasizing the language spo- ken. It was a masterly effort that brought out the wonderful elocutionary power that this lady is possessed of, and was re- warded with much applause. Miss Mayer then danced a hornpipe and Mrs. Brandt gave a recitation. After the programme refreshments were served and between | numbers there was dancing. There were more than 400 members of the order in the hall of Mission Chapter at the official visit of Grand Matron Mrs. C. A. Giberson, who on that occasion was accompanied by the grand patron,. the associate grand conductress and a num- ber of other grand and past grand offi- cers. The meeting proved an interesting one and at the close the distinguished vis- itor was presented a large basket of the choicest roses obtainable. The visit of the worthy grand matron, Mrs. Giberson, to her home chapter, Ivy No. 27, on _the night of the 12th inst.’ was one that will long be remembered with pleasure by the guest of the evening and the very large number of members and visitors. There was no work that even- ing, as the deputy, Mrs. Anna M. John- son, had paid an official visit a short time Prelly Roman s sake k coverings.

The hall for the occasion was magnif- icently decorated and the banisters lead- ing to the meeting room were covered with ivy leaves and roses, During the evening there was presented to the wor- thy grand matron as a token of love and appreciation from the members a hand- somely framed painting of bunches of California grapes, symbolical of Califor- nia’s vintage, the paining a very creditable piece of work, being by Mrs. Susie Lock- wood, a member of the chapter. A short literary and musical programme was fol- lowed by a banquet that was partaken of by nearly 300. The decoration of the hall was a marvel of ingenuity of arrnage- ments. A center table reserved for the guest of honor, the worthy matron and worthy patron 'and others, was under a bower of electric lights and garlands of, smilax in imitation of the grand court on Market street, while pillars injthe hall were entwined with garlands of ivy. The tables were gems of table setting and the whole, when all were seated, presented an enchanting scene. The committee that had charge of the affair can feel proud of the attractive manner in which it ar- ranged the rooms. It proved that with Mrs. Oscar Hickei at the head of the en- tertainment committee Ivy will never fail to make the meeting place attractive and meintain its reputation for hospitality. The at home of San Franclsco Chapter, O. E. 8., on the night of the 18th of Aug- ust was attended by a goodly number of the members of the chapter and many visitors.
