Assisted by Mrs. Stoltz and her daughter, Margaret, Miss MeNary served a lovely luncheon. These meetings are held each month at the homes of members. Mrs. Charles Carter, 1464 Ferry street, will enter tain In January. Banqueting his university and lUble class teachers, was the unique Idea carried out by Mr. Fred Chu, a Wil lamette Freshman. The affair took place Saturday evening, at the resi dence of the Morrison Reids, on State street, which Is Mr. Chu's Salem home. A Chinese dinner, consisting of the choicest of Mongolian dishes, was served in the style common to tho Far East. Turkey, goose, pork, and sea ear, direct from China and se cured through the favor of the Chi nese consul, Mr. Iiee Sun of Portland, were served, together with an abund ance of chicken soup, chop suey, rice, tea, and fruit. Chop sticks were used, as Mr. Chu insisted that the Chinese custom should prevail. Frantic ef forts on the part of the guests were finally rewarded, as necessity proved a true mother. In this particular ex ercise, special mention should he made of the proficiency attained by Doctor Avison and Jliss rennington. The table truly groaned as Oriental style demanded that some dish or utensil occupy every available Inch of space. No passing of food was permitted, but each guest helped himself to the viands. Much of Chinese table manners and customs was brought out In Mr. Chu's Interesting talk, of which one or two Items will suffice to illustrate. Four and one-half hours is ordinarily given to the fashionable dinner In China; it is considered a great breach of etl- j I quotio to make tho tiniest spot upon the linen, even when uBlng such ar ticles s chop sticks. And theso tools of gastronomy, when the meal Is fin ished, must be carefully placed with the ends even, at right angles with the user. Mr. Chu comes of a high caste fam ily' and is well educated In his own language, having received the degree of A. B. in China. Specializing in Eng lish this year, Mr. Chu will begin the study of medicine next fall, and even tually will return to bis home nt Shanghai, which is the metropolis of the Flowery Kingdom. Circling tho table for this unusual dinner were: Doctor and Mrs. Avi son, Miss Edna Krennlng, Miss Ilor tonse Pennington, Miss Stella Chap pell, and Mr. nnd Mrs. Morrison Reld. Mrs. Frank W. Brown, Mrs. Edward Stansbury Tillinghast, Mrs. Asa (Continued on page 3.) Grand Opera House Thursday, Dec. 12 sawtnti ..'ft"' :f.- W ' . . , L .. . Vj ....
