Most women have so tired of the ones they are wearing that a chance to freshen up jtheir wardrobe at this season with a Spring Frock is not overlooked. Circular tiers and side panels feature frocks of flat crep'e. Bouffant taf fetas and printed crepes are also a la mode. 1 v ma i Popularity thnt nttnched itst-lf Ito the Hi'riea of mid-winter pnrlies at tho La (jrnmlu Country club, refuses to .wane. In spite of Htoi-ma and many counter attractions tho month ly party (tiven Wednesday nieht was well attended and well arranged. A seven piece orchestra under the di rection of Andrew I.oney provided the music. The party . was marked by the presence of veral specially invited L'ucsts, and members and KUesLiuyiiike a deliuhlful eve- nine;. I'uiu-h was served and lijht 1 refreshnn.n'.s topped off tho eve--liinp's program.

The Neighborhood cuu met Tuts duy afternoon to .enjoy the double pleasure of nil extromeiv in(eict i"ir business meetini;, with Mrs. A. I.. Iiichardson piesiding and an ex ceptional proKram. The works of the sculptor, Aumis '.us Saint Gaudens took on an addi tional subtle charm, as Mrs. Alvah lHnyca oplained the masterpieces of this -(.real American, i It is a de light to be led along the paths of higher art, to follow the natuuil aim and expression of sm-h a genius, when instructed by one who is so .thoroughly and easily familiar with her subject as Mrs. lluryeii. TIvj showing of the slides: Death and the Sculptor, Grief and Lincoln, with many others lent an additional charm. No one can doubt but that music is finding mem sympathy today and takes nn important par in Neighbor hood eluli programs.

I'o hear )ln. l.ee Kovnulds in the playing of I'icrot the Dreamer (Kd ward SchutM aiid Hungarian t Mc Dowell) is an uniipie experience. 1 he delicacy and sparkle of the play ing leaves a Justing impre-sion of verity. Kvery aPpi-aranee of Mrs. Hay I-'uH.r, vhn has a soprano voice of Mile ipmli-.y, gives her many admir ers a new and dcliuhtl'til ' musical thrill. Ilersinging of "You and I" (Wiii-d Stephens) and "Less Than the Jlusl" (Amy Woodford l.inden)show ed the luurvelously sweet quality and iiower of l.?r voice which is re nin! kablo.
