: Mrs. I.eo F. Miller was the chair
inun In charge and the program
presented was of unusiiul interest
throughout. "Music of the Ori
ent" was the program topic, and
.an oriental stage setting and ori
ental costumes added much to the
music, readings and dances.
: As an Introduction to the pro
gram, Mrs. Milter appeared in a
Chinese costume, a native wedding
dress, which was brought to J,u
Grande by Miss Geneva Sayro
,"when she returned from China aft
er a number of years spont thorn
us a missionary and told some
thing of the history of the music
of the orient, and how it differs
from other music. She played a
Chinese scale as compared with the
major scale and explained the dif
ference. She called attention to
the oriental scarfs and tapestries,
which were used to decorate the
Mage, and which are owned by lo
cal people, and introduced a little
Chinese boy and a little Chinese
girl, Nancy Lee Lindsay and Mnrcia
Miller, who were dressed In Chi
nese cost iiiiip and were seated at
either side of the stage.
The first program number an
nounced by the chairman was an
Kast Indian song, "Kashmiri" by
Amy Woodford Kind en. sung by
I'nul Knautz, accompanied by Mrs.
Knautz at the piano. As an en
core Mr. Knautz responded with
"Shipmates O Mine."
Misses Jane Stange and Guilda
Ashby appeared In a clever orien
tal dance, which added to the at
mosphere of the program. Mrs. H.
N. Ashby was piano accompanist
und Mrs. Miller and' Mrs. Audmer
J'layle played violins. All were in
oriental costume.
Miss Mildred Spencer appeared
in the dress of the modern Chinese
jlrl and played a Chinese piano
group by Frlml. The numbers were
presented In a most capable man
ner and were ent husiastlenlly re
ceived. Miss Lois McLean, of Seattle,
Wash., gave a group of Chinese
nursery rhymes, translated into
Knglish. She was accompanied at
the piano by Mrs. H. N. Ashby
with music by Hralnbrldge Crist.
Mo well was Mrs. McLean received
that after the close of the-regulnr
program she again appeared In hoi
own drcsH and gave -several mis
cellaneous readings, all of which
were received with much applause
from the audience'. The outstand
ing number was one entitled
"Down With Men."
The. closing number on the pro
gram was a second group of Kast
Indian songs. "Out of the East"
by Lester, sung by -Mrs. l,efll Kus
nell, contralto. Mrs. Kussell has a
beautiful voice and the songs,
Which were difficult, were given
with, ease. Mts. Ashby was her
accompanist, .und filled the posi
tion' in a most capable manner.
I ur ing the business HPssfon.

meet the eye of the woman accustomed to social secre

young lady who earns her own living. And both may
be thankful that advertising has forever banished the

Where will the waistline be? Bows at the cuffs, or
not? "V" neck or square? How long or how short?'
What materials does Paris favor? What colors are

everyone in the advertisements. And with the ans
wers are coupled the names of manufacturers and
merchants who make and sell materials, trimmings,
accessories, on which you can rely. For those adver
