THE WEEK AT CARDS With the coming of Springr and the inviting appearance of na ture, card enthusiasts are al ready planning to push aside the card tables and enjoy various outings where freckles and coat of tan will be sought rather than shunned. However, the following club events were chronicled for the week: The Whist Club The pretty home of Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Walker was a scene of gayety last Monday evening when they received the members of the Whist Club. After sev eral enthusiastic games, the host ess served a delicious collation. The hours passed so pleasantly that the members were reluc tant to leave. . Autowlns Mr. and Mrs. Hal Hibbs most graciously entertained the Auto wins last Wednesday evening. The Club's erer interesting game 500 was indulged in till late when the hostess served a dainty luncheon that woud please the most fastidious. This wi.l prob ably b the last meeting of the season. Klosetllllcum The members of the Klosetilli cum Club enjoyed an evening of 500 at the home of Mr. " and Mrs. S. B. Walker last Thursday evening. Artistic decorations of dogwood and other blossoms i'ave a breath of Spring to the reception rooms and made a prettv background for the guests in their new spring cos tumes. Seven tab'es were smart ly arranged for 500 and the oc casion as a whole was a very festive one. A splendid repast concluded the pleasure of the meeting. Mrs. A. L. Sperling w ill he the next hostess to the Klosetillicuma when they ad journ for the summer season. arrangements having already been made to beautify and make more attractive the surround ings. Mrs. Merwin reportei from the Entertainment com mittee and plans were discussed for having an impersonator give a Iiiley evening, tho no definit conclusions were reached on ac count of the small attendance as the ladies of the club on that day seemed more enthusiastic abou the cooking demonstration thai civic beautifying, but we can say that if as many ladies attend the civic meetings when they are not enticed away by some culinary artist, as were present at the demonstrations, they will certainly accomplish all the good movements they are undertak CIVIC IMPROVEMENT CXUB MEETS The Civic Improvement Club neld a business meeting at their club rooms on Monmouth street Saturday afternoon.

Some THE DEBUT OF EASTER Heralded by many days of most ideal weather, which brought forth so many beautiful flowers, Easter was ushered in with just a little chilly wave. The usual financial depression that come: with so many milliner bill' seemed to have been dispelled and tho everyone seemed ar rayed in a bit of new finery, the paramount feature was the thought of Spring dispelling Winter and youth old age. At the various churches the rostrums were beautified with banks of lilies and flowering al monds. Elaborate musical pro grams were prepared and in some of the churches, the musi cal directors prepared cantatas. The choirs beautifully rendered the anthems; the solos, duets and quartettes were sweetly sung. Each pastor hud pre pared for his followers excellent discourses and the attendance at Easter worship was unusually good. Li st Sunday E; stor services at the Church was largely attended both morning and evening. The morning service was impressive but at the: evening hour the musical program ren dered was extraordinary, both the solos and choruses being exceptionally well rendered. It is to be hoped lh;.t another such' evening will be given in the near future. This Sunday the sermon for the morn ing hour will be "Gods Definition cf Keligion" and in the evening, "Tha Sleep of a Happy Dismissal." We will again render special music and at the evening service the usual evangel istic song service will begin promptly at eight. By special request "Take the Name of Jesus With You" will bu rendered as solo and chorus. You are; invited to meet with us. M. E. CHURCH l.'QTICf FRANK SANDIFUR, Pastor.
