SOCIETY The regular meetirg of the High Five club will be Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs. J. E. Foley. The Kaffe Klatch will meet Friday afternoon of this week with Mrs. M.K. Hall. MEETING.OF NEIGHBORHOOD CLUB The regular meeting of the Neighbor nood Club on Tuesday afternoon was well attended and the program was full of in terest. , The study of English Literature was begun and the lesson study was very ably conducted by Mrs. George Palmer. The study began with the writers of the Anglo-Saxon period. As in the childhood of any people, poet ry is the more natural way of expressing thought or emotion we find that the earl iest monuments of English literature are in verse. Foremost among the early English poets are Beowulf, Caedmon and Cynewulf. Prose composition is a later and more abored development. The earliest Anglo-Saxon prose of any literary value seems to have been the work of the "Venerable" Bede. a monk who lived from 673 to 735. He wrote books on grammer, mathe matics, natural science, commentaries on the Scriptures, treatises on philosophy, besides many other works, but his most important work is the ecclesiastical or church history of Britain. In the latter part of the ninth century, Alfred the Great won feme in a literary way ard became prominently associated with the development of English speech and English prose. He translated many works from Latin into the English tongue and made his cap ut of Winchester the centre of learning and literary activity in England and from his schools went forth many noted teachers. Near the end of the tenth century, Ael- fric. following the example of Alfred, wrote in his native tongue. Among his most in teresting works is a Latin Grammar and a Glossary which supplies the equivalents in many Arglo-Saxon words. He also wrote a collection of Homi'ies which had a wide circulat.on. The Magazine study "A Day in Old Ox ford" under the leadership of Mrs. Turn er Oliver, was very instructive An excellent pat tr or. "Ear.y English Drama" by Mrs. J. A. Russell, completed the program of the afternoon and the Club adjourned to meet t the regular time, Jar.uarv twenty-seccr.d. (Scripps News Association) Ch.cago.
