WILL LECTURE ON HOME DECORATION To the Ladles of Hood River County: The Woman's Club announces that on the afternoon of January ".1st, at the Commercial Club rooms, will be given an Illustrated lecture on home decoration by Mrs. Dollttle of Port land. Mrs. Dollttle Is a professional deco rator, lately from Chicago, ami those who have heard some of her talks, and had the pleasure of examining the fabrics, draperies, etc., that she carries with her In Illustrating her lectures on beautifying the home, can testify to the artistic conceptions and harmonious color schemes that she devises. There are few women who nre not thoroughly Interested In making home attractive. To some this Is an easy matter, for with the artistic temperament good fortune has sup plied nn ample purse. The full purse does not always mean good taste and we fret because our chairs are In the way, our carpets strike us In the face when we open the door, and our curtains anil draperies are not ns satisfactory ami beautiful as Mrs. Blank's, ami yet cost More money. Why Is It thus? It Is Mrs. Dollttle's purpose to give some directions nnd, In fact, inexor able rules to help us overcome some of these seemingly small questions which are, In all seriousness, barriers to many a housewife's ierfect happi ness. There Is no gainsaying the fact that harmonious surroundings produce harmony lu the home In life, and so It Is the duty of every woman to study this Important question not alone for the pleasure of the eye, but for the comfortable, soothing Influences upon the family. We hope the ladles of Hood River town and countryside will take ad vantage of this opportunity to hear Mrs. Dollttle and to examine the beautiful fabrics, but there Is another excellent reason why we want you to be present on the .'list of January: that Is the day on the calendar of the Hood River Woman's Club known as "The Scholarship Loan Fund Day." The Federation of the stite considers this one of Its most precious departments. The purpose Is to aid deserving girls who, through no fault of their own, are unable to cope with the financial world ami secure the education that they desire and deserve. There Is no publicity given to the names of the girls; they are known by number to all club women other than the ofll cers who have charge of this depart ment, such olliceis not being allowed to disclose names. There are at this time twenty girls receiving aid through the Federation of Women's ( lulls lu Oregon, oue a resilient of Hood River, ami two others In New York City studying art. All can readily understand that this means that we must have money and that we do not wish Hood River to fall down In her re port at tin- srid of the year. I-t us have a pride In this very commenda ble work. Besides the lecture by Mrs. Dollttle, we are vry happy to say that Mrs. Ralph Root and Mrs. Henney have kindly consented to favor us with vocal solos. Refreshments will be served and we feel sure of an enjoya ble as well ns a profitable afternoon to you. tilve us n silver shower and help financially one of the greatest works that woman can be Interested In, the helping hand to deserving young women.
