Shumias Have
Unique Meeting
The regular meeting of the
Shumia Club on November 2-5 was
turned into a social afternoon.
The Shumia members with their
guests met at the home of Mrs. R.
E. Gray at 2 o'clock. They were
met at the door by little Miss
Flora Edwards, who sang a quaint
song of greeting. The introduc
tion were sung to various tune
as they were pasted from one to
another of the reception committee,
composed of Mrs. Gray, Mies Con
way, Mies (iitchel and Mrs. Wood.
The first number on the pro
gram was the '"Military March."
Mrs, Gray then told the story of
the "Swan Song" from Lohengrin,
in a most graphic manner. This
proved conducive to an apprecia
tion of the rendition of it on the
player-piano.
The Shumias then retired to
another room. Each was assigned
a bird to imitate. Rehersals be
gan at once, each one trying to
make herself beard above the din
of the rest. There was a time as
well as a speed limit to this ama
teur vocal performance. They
were then asked to stand where
they would be out of sight but
within hearing of the guests. At
a signal the medley began. The
guests were asked to call for the
birds as they were recognixed by
their songs. The effort of imitat
ing a bird and laughing between
times furnished hilarious enter
tainment for all within earshot.
Miss Conway sang "Silver
Threads Among the Gold," with
touching tenderness. The instru
mental solo, "Old Black Joe," with
variations followed. Mrs. Wood
in her sweet and pleasing manner
gave a "Character Sketch of a
Slave Owner."
The unique game, "I Can Sing,
Can You," devised by the hostess,
created much amusement. Re
freshments, carrying out the blue
and gold colors of the club, were
then served. While the guests
lingered at the table Miss Gitchel
gave the reading, "Gingsby's Sta
tion," in her usual artistic way.
Flora Edwards then sang, "Sleep,
Baby, Sleep," and "O, Tell Me
Pretty Rosebud." The guests then
departed declaring the hostess a
clever entertainer. A Shvmia.
