mind the minute you entered Hotel
Asutln last Saturday afternoon when,
in honor of the Belgian Babies' Bene
fit, the main apartments on the
ground floor were converted, for the
time being, into a flower-decked
fairyland. Out of deference to the
babies, the entire color scheme was
keyed to pink and white, the same
delicate shell pink to be found In the
dainty layettes that were on exhlbt-

afternoon, were assisted at the re
ceipt of custom by Mrs. D. Perozzl
and Mrs. Frank Jordan, who gather
ed In the admittance fees, while Mrs.
Ella Mills and Mrs. Frank Dickey
received the guests on the second
floor and directed them to the hand
some suite prepared as dressing and
cloak room for the occasion.
Some clubs and a few Individual
hostesses had reserved card tables
for the afternoon, among these guests
being a half dozen women from Bed
ford. Both parlor and dining room
were comfortably filled with card
players; and the knitters' cosy corn
er was not slighted, either. But from
a decorative standpoint, the tea room
was the "piece de resistance" of the
whole affair. There, as throughout
the rooms, baskets of bridal wreatli
and apple blossoms were suspended
at intervals, a fountain surrounded
with flowers and greenery played iu
the center, and the perfectly appoint
ed tea tables with pink candles In
silver candelabra and center pieces
of pink and white blossoms made
the background of a charming pic
ture. Here tea and delicious cakes
were dispensed by Mrs. Chester Stev
enson, Mrs. Paulserud, and Mrs.
Henry Enders, Jr , assisted by the
Misses Marlr.n Summers and Bernice
Myers.
Over and above the required ad
mittance fee, several generous gifts
were handed In during the afternoon,
swelling the total receipts to some
thing more than $40, enough money
to provide tlio Belgian babies with
a number of pretty layettes, for
which, it Is to be hoped, they will
be grateful. While on the other
hand, the guests at their benefit, owe
the Belgian babies (also the host
esses of the day, Mrs. Provost' and
Mrs. Pracht) a vote of thanks for
an exceptionally charming afternoon.
W.C.T.V. Institute
This is the month for institutes
for southern Oregon W. C. T. U. and
accordingly two were held In Jack
son county last week, one In Med
ford and the other In Ashland. Both
unions show great activity along the
lines of relief and Red Cross work.
The Ashland W. C. T. U. shows
advancement along spiritual lines and
this department was emphasized by
Dr. Keeney Ferris, who gave an elo
quent address on "First Things
First." She paid high tribute to the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union when she said It had wielded
a thought over the world as no other
Continuing along the line of spiritual
organization excepting the church'
thought she saldr "Its only as we
keep In touch with God with one
hand will we ever be able to touch
the world with the other hand and
help It up."
A health talk by Dr. Maud Haw
ley along practical Hues was greatly
appreciated.
Rev. D. D. Edwards gave a most
timely and exhaustive lecture on

"Tobacco," showing the great waste
of land and money because of this
weed. "Its an expensive habit," de
clared Rev. Edwards, "$1900 is be
ing spent every minute of the year
for this harmful thing. One smoke
less and chewless and spitless day
a week would pay all the expenses
of the Red Cross."
Rev. Ferris gave a very compre
hensive talk on "Prayer." He em
phasized the great need of deep In
tercessory prayer these days when
the world is in a deep baptism of
sorrow, but if we win democracy
and it be not a spiritual democracy
our cause is lost.
The evening program brought out
a well filled house.' The Dr. TUton
orchestra furnished delightful music.
Mrs. Hockett's sweet voice filled the
house with melodlus strains when
she sang, "So Long Mother", "Our
Banner," and other patriotic songs
all of which brought forth hearty
applause from an appreciative audi
ence.
Hon. C. M. Thomas of Medford
spoke on "Patriotism In Politics",
and during his remarks threw some
light on the political situation of our
country and the great need of the
best citizenship standing together to
elect strong and clean men to of
flee.
Lottie Hannon, state lecturer of
W.C.T.U., who gave our evening ad
dress, is a woman of great experi
ence, organizing seventy-five unions
In Montana alone. She is admired
for the breadth of character and un
tiring devotion to our principles to
make the world a better place to
live in. Her lecture on "Patriotism"
Is one people enjoy hearing mora than
once. Her eulogy on the flag does
not fall to make better patriots of
those who hear It. Mrs. Hannon de
clared there had not been a symbol
since thp ptar of Bethlehem that
means so much to the world today
as our own U. S. flag. And to the
star of Bethlehem are we Indebted
for our emblem. The white stars
in the blue field are symbolical of
that blue sky and the starry depths
that hovered over Judea the night
the Savior of the world was born,
and the red and white stripes are
to remind us of that life of suffer
ing and sacrifice. "0, Is it any won
der"? asked the speaker, "that ail
must acknowledge that there Is no
other banner of such significance as
our own red, white and blue."
Thja, children of the twt grade
schools had been active In getting
out a crowd to hear the patriotic ad
dress, and as a reward for their work
the Oregon W.C.T.U. presented.

largest number of votes the flag to
become the property of the respec
tive rooms represented by these
teachers. Miss Thomas, of the 5th
grade and Miss Morehouse, of the
Junior high, having received the
highest number of votes, were given
the flags.

ian church Thursday night a good
