CHARMING and artistic in every de
tail was the smart tea for which
Mrs. George Atkinson Warren
(Nan Robertson) was hostess yester
day, complimenting her adorable house
guest. Miss Rhoda Niebling. of San
Francisco. More than 100 attractively
eowned matrons and maids called to
greet the clever little maid, who
charmed the assemblage with her
singing.
She chose a group of French. English
and German songs, among them the
exquisite aria from "Butterfly" and the
aria from "Lakme" by Liebes. The
dainty and charming little songbird
was assisted at the piano by
Miss Constance Piper, whose accompa
niments were an inspiration that com
pleted the artistry of the programme.
Miss Niebling has many old friends
here, made on her last visit to Fort
land several years ago. She will be
the house-guest of Mrs. Warren for
some time, and will be delightfully en
tertained by prominent social leaders.
Miss Mary Robertson assisted in re
ceiving, the trio making an attractive
group. Miss Robertson was gowned in
a stunning azure blue chiffon velvet
gown, with silver lace embellishments,
worn with a corsage of pink rosebuds.
Miss Niebling, who is especially lovely
and petite, wore a simple pink taffeta
frock, with tulle trimming, and corsage
of violets, and Miss Robertson was
attractive in a smart gown of turquoise
blue Georgette crepe with broad satin
tands of the same shade as trimming.
Che also wore a corsage of pink buds.
The drawing-room was aglow with
a profusion of rose-pink carnations and
bowls of pink tulips and pink roses.
Presiding at the tea table, which
was unusually attractive, having a
bowl of exquisite Ophelia roses and
ferns as a central decoration, were
Mrs. Donald Ranney Munro,- Mrs. Harry
Robertson Failing, Mrs. Joseph An
drews and Mrs. George KIrkham Smith.
They were assisted by Misses Elizabeth
.Tones, Evelyn Carey, Barbara Mac
kenzie, Lesley Smith, Marion Smith,

Miss Frances Warren and Mrs. William
Kdward Robertson assisted In the

the library and served Ices.
Over 130 festively garbed men and
women made merry last night at the
pre-Lenten dance for ' which the man
agement of Alexandra Court were hosts.
The ballroom and dining-room were
adorned with Spring flowers in a riot
of pleasing coloring, combined with
ferns, palms and Oregon grape.
Baskets of pink tulips and pink
shaded candelabra decked the supper
table, presided over by Mrs. Walker
and Mrs. E. W. Cornell.

sweet peas, bride roses, and carnations.

mauve cloth, with small hat to match,
and her bouquet was of lilies of the
valley and orchids.

A Breakfast Table Argomeet.
Tl ZTARY wanted to get some new fur
1MX. niture. The green plush of the
sofa was worn on the edges. The cen
ter table was scratched. The children
had scuffed the rugs out. The living-
room certainly looked shabby. Her soul
longed for something bright and cheer
ful and new.
She diplomatically approached the
subject as John disposed of his bacon
and eggs.
"I see that Johnson's are going to
have a furniture sale she remarked
casually. "They have some wonder
ful bargains.
John remained silent.
"We'll need some new things soon.
I am actually ashamed of that sofa and
rug in the living-room. Hadn't we
better get them now while we can save
on them? It is only a question of time
before we will actually have to get
them and then they will undoubtedly
be higher. I could probably sell that
sofa and rug to the second-hand man
now and in that way get something to
ward the new things and we would thus
be saving all round. And if I sell them
now before they are worn worse, I'll
get more for them than if I wait.
What do you think about it?"
"What we have is plenty good
enouph," said John emphatically. "Our
furniture will last us for years yet.
What is the use of getting new things
now while the children are growing
up? In a short time new furniture
would not look any better than we've
got. It's all fool ishness to talk about
getting new things now. What we have
will do plenty well enough."
Mary sighed. She knew there was
little use to argue when John used that
tone.
A few mornings afterward John re
marked, "I think I'll get a new car,
Tom is getting a new one. Cars are
coming down in price now and a new
one does not cost so much, especially
if I turn my. old one in and get some
thing on it toward the new one."
"But your car is plenty good enough.
said Mary with a retaliatory gleam in
her eye. "There's not a thing the mat
ter with it. It runs all right. You have
a starter and all the latest improve
ments. What is the use of getting a
new car when this will do?"
"It doesn't pav to keep a car too
long," replied John sagely. "You don't
get as much for it."
"But it will mean-quite an outlay xo
get a new car," contended Mary. "And
this will do. And ir you wait another
year or two, there'll probably be a
whole lot of new ideas brought out.
This car will do all right for several
years yet."
"Yes. And we II look as ir we are ria
ng around in a thing that came out of
the ark. Besides, you don't get any
thing for a car when its too old. lou
don't know about it, my dear. It pays
to keep up-to-date.
With which remark, he folded his
nankin and kissed her good-bye. "1
should think you would like a new car,"
he said as he went out. -Most women
do."
But Marv. as she gazed at the shabby
furniture in the living-room, wondered
why men have the reputation of being
the reasoning and logica member of
the marriage partnership

145 6th St. Floyd Brower. Mgr.
Bobby Duck Got! to Market.
BOBBY DUCK was a good little fel
low most of the time, but once In
a while he did like to have his own
way and did not want to mind his
mo'ther. who. of course, being older,
was wiser as well. ' t
Madam Duck, Bobby's mother, ' said
one morning: "Bobby, x tninK you win
have to go to market this morning,
because I have a pain in my foot and
cannot walk to town."
Now. Bobby Duck was not glad that
his mother had a pain in her foot, not
at all; but he was very glad he could
go to market, because he knew he
would have to go through the woods,
and Bobby Duck thought he might have
an adventure.
Bobbv had heard of Mr. Fox and Old
Black "Wolf, who lived in the woods,
and he knew he would be braver than
those who told stories of meeting these
fellows and how frightened they had
be.en of Old Black Wolf's groan and
Mr. Fox's big mouth.
4I would not be frightened," thought
Bobby Duck. "I carry a gun and I
would make those fellows run from
me. I hope I meet one of them; or
both would be more fun."
"Xo w. Bobby," said his mother, as
she gave him the market basket, "do
not loiter on the way, and above all,
do not talk to anyone you meet, es
pecially in the woods.
"You never saw Old Black Wolf or
Mr. Fox, and they might talk to you
so nice and 6weet that you would think
them the kindest creatures in the
world, and not knowing what would
happen to you."
Bobby went to market and got all
the nice things his mother told him to
buy, and was on his way home, and
still he had not met a single creature,
and his gun, which he brought under
his jacket, was still unused.
"Good morning, my little fellow,"
said someone, very sweetly.
Bobby looked in the direction from
which the voice came and saw a big
black bead and emiling face looking at
him from under a bush some distance
from the path.
"Good morning." said Bobby," and
then he stopped, forgetting all about
what his mother said about not loiter
ing. Mr. Fox, for It was he, came toward
Bobby and asked what he had in his
basket.
Bobby told him he had been to mar
ket for his mother and had currants
and raisins and sugar and spicee and
a bag of rice.
Mr. Fox was so pleased to hear this
that he almost forgot to be polite and
reached toward Bobby's basket as if
to take it.
Then he drew back and said: "I
really feel I should help you to carry
such a heavy basket. You are such a
little fellow."
"Oh! I am so strong." said Bobby
Duck, puffing up as big as he could,
"and I am brave too. See my gun,"
and he threw back his coat go Mr. Fox
could see he had one.
Mr. Fox eyed the gun, and he did
not seem very pleased, either, so he
asked to look at the gun. telling Bobby
that it was very handsome, and he
would like to see it.
But what do you think that sly Mr.
Fox did as soon as he had the gun in
his hands? Why, he just pointed it
right at poor little Bobbv Duck and
told him to march ahead of him or he
would shoot him. Now, do not be
alarmed, my children, for you remem
ber I told you at the beginning it
turned out that Bobby Duck, was not
harmed, but he almost was.
Poor Bobby Duck forgot all about
being brave when wicked Mr. Fox
spoke to him in such a gruff voice and
he marched along as he was told to do.
Just as they reached Mr. Fox's home
and Air. Fox was thinking he would
have all the good things in the basket,
as well as poor little Bobby Duck,
someone came scampering through the
bushes and there was a big dog from
the farm over the hill.
My. how Mr. Fox ran when he saw
that dog and how the dog ran when he
saw Mr. Fox running, but the danger
was all over for Bobby Duck, and he
picked up his gun, which Mr. Fox
dropped in his hurry, and off waddled
Bobby Duck for home.

Miaa K. Pearle Mitchell, the First
Woman Farmer of MiaaonrL
THE things that can actually be ac
complished by a woman who takes
up farming as a serious profession
have been demonstrated by Miss K.
Pearle Mitchell, the first woman farmer
of Missouri. Whereas the life of the1
average woman is dull and uninterest
ing, with much grinding work to do,
this is not the case with the woman
who undertakes the management of her
own land, according to Miss Mitchell.
Miss Mitchell has been interested in
farming all of her life. She is a daugh
ter of a farmer and was born on a 320
acre ranch in Boone County. Seventeen
years ago. at the death" of her father,
she came into possession of the land.
Since then she has managed it.
To further her success in her pro
fession, she made a complete study of
soils, grains and animal husbandry.
She specialized in the study of hogs
and this knowledge has led her to mar
ket vast numbers of fine animals. She
has frequently been called "the hog
woman of Missouri." It is in a great
measure this product of her farm that
has made her successful.
Miss Mitchell is especially interested
in organization among women farmers
and the wives of farmers. She is
the founder of the organization which
is now known as the Missouri Women

Farmers' Club, and which is comprised
of all the women in the state who have
followed Miss Mitchell's example in
pursuing the farming profession.
She is interested in all forms of
women's activities besides those which
are closely allied to farming. She is
secretary of the Missouri Home Makers'
conference, vice-president of the Mis
souri Rural Life conference, regent of
the Columbia Chapter of the Daughters
of 1812 and chairman of the industrial
and social conditions department of the
Missouri Federation of Women's Clubs.
She holds a number of smaller offices
among the clubs of the federation and
is an officer in a number of agricul
tural societies besides the one founded
by herself, of which she is president,
and the National Women Farm Mana
gers' Association, of which she is
treasurer.
Miss Mitchell is a graduate of
Stephens College and for many years
was president of Its alumnae associa
tion. The hospitable farmhouse in which
Miss Mitchell makes her home Is the
favorite gathering place of students
from the college which she attended
and for conferences and meetings of
various sorts among the societies of
which she is a member. The house is
in a way a social center of the rural
community near Kansas City, and the
result of it has been to promote a
closer relationship and greater co
operation among the women in that
section of the state.
