A fitting climax to a very success'
yful year's work of the Ladies' Neigh
borhood club came , last Tuesday
in the club breakfast given at the
home of Mrs. P. A. McDonald ; on
First street,. ' e
The tables were most artistically
decorated in the club colors, yellow
and white.
The centerpieces consisted of full
rigged ships, their yellow hulls and
white sails reflecting in the mirrors
upon which they rested, while the
i - a i i
snores 01 meats miniature seas were
formed by banks of yellow roses.. In
all the minor accessories the same
color scheme prevailed making a very
nleasin? effect ;
A delicious four course breakfast
was served after which the president,
Mrs. J. T. Richardson, introduced Mrs.
F. S. Ivanhoe as toast mistress. Mrs.
Ivanhoe, in her own charminc manner
congratulated the club upon the work
it was doing and the things it stands
for. Then explaining that for the
V morning .the organization was to be
called a ship, introduced as the first
speaker, Mrs. Turner Oliver, who, by
virtue of having filled every office
from scrubbing the deck to steering
the ship's course, would be well able
to handle the subject, "Our Ship."
Mrs. Oliver described the launching
of the ship with the few charter mem
bers as crew and Mrs. Cavanna to
guide the ship's course. Quoting from
Longfellow's "Building of the Ship"
There Is more Catarrh in this section of
the- country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last tew years
was Buprosed to be incurable. For a great
many years doctors pronounced It a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly falling to cure with local
treatment, pronounced It lncurablo. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be a consti
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by P. J. Cheney Se
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only Constitu
tional cure on the market. It is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. It acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fulls to cure. Send for circulars and tes
timonials. "

this first captain is represented - as
saying.
"E'er long we will launch
A vessel as goodly and strong
'. v'i . and staunch . ...
As ever weathered a wintry sea."
With' the model ship constantly in
view Mrs. Cavanna allowed no slight
est detail of parliamentary law to be
ignored, saying:
"Follow well this plan of mine,
Choose the timbers with greatest
: care; . :
Of all that Ss unsound, beware,
For only what is sound and strong
To this vessel must belong."
A brief history of the voyage of the
club ship followed, telling of coun
tries visited, the growth in numbers
of the ship's crew and the life boats
added to the ship's equipment among
which are the Child Welfare Boat and
the Civic Improvement Boat. And
in closing Mrs. Oliver paid a beauti
ful tribute to the officers and crew
who launched the - -
The "Retiring Captain" was re
snonded to bv Mrs. J. T. Richardson
who, for the past year, has so ably
held the shiD in its course. With
deen feelinw Mrs. Richardson thanked
the officers and crew for their assist
ance and co-operation during the last
voyage. Made clear an tnat tne wor
had meant to ner personally m vrmu
ai vioinn And clearer outlook and ex-
pressed her own parting message in
"In spite of rock and tempests'
In suite of false lights on the
: shore, - '
Sail on. Nor fear to breast the
My heart, my hopes are all with
. thee. .
My heart, my hopes, my prayers,
mv tears.
My faith, triumphant o'er my
fears
Are all with thee -are all with
thee." S ,i ,
A vocal solo, "May Morning," by
Mrs. "A. L. Richardson, was, so beau
tifully rendered that all the joy of
the nerfect day seemed expressed in
the fitting melody. To a very enthu
siastic encore Mrs. Richardson grace
fully responded. ,
"TVio Nw Cantain" was the sub
iect taken by Mrs. Vincent Palmer.
With congratulations to the retiring
captain upon her success, ana woras
of commendation for the untiring zeal
and the ability she had shown in the
discharge of her duties, Mrs. Palmer
expressed the hope that the new offi
cers might be able to hold to the
standard set by their predecessors.
Then outlining the plan for the next
voyage, she urged that the Club Ship
might ever stand for progress and
for whatever tends to the betterment
and the uplift of humanity.
Mrs. Albert Hunter very ably han-
died the subject, "The Crew." She
dwelt upon the growth in numbers of
the ship s crew their work along dif
ferent lines but always towards cul
ture and the bettering of conditions

Great Beyond. Quoting from Joaquin
Miller's . "Columbus", he rparting ad
vice to thecrew was "sail on."
"The : Midshipmen" or "The New
Members ' was responded to by Mrs,
George Currey. who spoke of the new
interest, new life - and new ; thoughts
that would be brought on board by the
new membres from various parts of
the land, and welcomed them as mem
bers of the crew. Then she called at
tention to the use of the word new
The New Testament, the New Dispen
sation, and finally,' the New Woman.
To the toast "Woman as the Home
Maker, Mrs.; George Carpy . respond-
ed. To the woman whose home stands
first in her heart and who seeks cul
ture that she maw better serve those
near and dear to her Mrs. Carpy paid
a beautiful tribute. The love . and
friendship that clings to those who
are drutig away on life s sea was ex
pressed in the lines:
"But hark! A cheer! a shout of
.. - courage strong
That rings in listless ears :
And firm stronsr hands
". Shall reach them forth, and he
who slumbers deep
Shall wake to find true friends
wh I know him best.
Eager to set him on his course
once more
And side by side guide safely into
port."
Mrs. Loughlin was next introduced
by the toastmistress as a seeress who
would answer the question, ."Whith
er Bound?" In a beautifully chosen
metaphor Mrs. Loughlin outlined the
work, of the club towards the estab
lishing of a library in La Grande.
Making it a story of a ship's cruise,
among breakers at times but finally
coming out into calm waters with the
haven in view. -
To the closing toast, "Our Bills, or
the Man Left at Home." Mrs. J. JJ.
Smith responded. In a most humor
ous manner a picture dear to the heart
of 'the cartoonist was presented. A
picture of the deposed ruler literally
clubbed from, Ms tnrone sitting ; ae
iectedlv amid the ruins of his home
Then in more serious vein Mrs. Smith
highly lauded these "Bills" who are
ever ready to pay the bills, who, en
courage all that tends to add culture
to the home and who by their efforts
have helped to place woman on the
plans she occupies today. And who
with encouragement and financial aid
nave maue it puasiuio iui on., w
sail serene'- on her way.
A vote of thanks was then tendered
tn Mrs. Ivanhoe for the able and en
tertaining manner in which she had
served as toastmistress and to Mrs.
McDonald for her gracious hospitality
in offering her beautiful home for the
occasion. ,.- .
Thus with congratulations for the
success of the past year and bright
prospects for the future the club year
closed. - . ;
