Mrs. Rose Schieffelln reported letters of sympathy sent to re cently bereaved members, after which she gave a most interesting talk on old mission architecture. She said in conclusion after a very informative discussion of the rubject that the old mission archi tect ure is the only real architec ture that America really can lay claim to nnd even 'that Idea was brought from Spain by Cortez nnd his ideas in turn had been handed down from an earlier data and influenced by the Mohammedans and Moors. Tho missionaries had to build according to the material nt hand which was mostly rock, stone and cement. These buildings seemed to grow right out of the soil and sort of blend with the scenery. They were located fifteen or twenty miles apart on what Is yet the high way of today. It seems a coincidence that a simitar setlement was growing nt the same time on the eat coast, tho there was no communi cation between the two and each had no knowledge of the other. Tho Ryzantine motive was large ly In evidence wll h large domes painted to resemble mosaics. Nine miles from Tucson there Is yet a splendid mission in a most wonderful stato of preser vation. Father Kuhne, a gentlo old priest visited here in DiH2 and found only nn old adobe shuck which h(j used as a nucleus for a mission. Hunta. Rarharn mission Is the only one that to this day is and alawys has been In charge of the Franciscan missionaries of the original builders. This mis sion Is the only cloistered mis sion left. I'rln j hs lioulse of England and Mrs. Wm. M- Kin ley were the only women ever ullowed to enter its portals. San Antonio has the oldest Ir rigation system in the United States that Is in good enough state of preservation to be in use. Mrs. Hehefflein spoke of the priestOwho went to the mission of San Juan Caplstrnno so brok en in health that he neemingly could not live, but was inspired to rebuild the mission and in doing he rebuilt his health and beeame a well man. Sit Joshua RAnolds goes down to posterity as both an artist and a literary man never under standing women nnd his produc tions marked by "Tho Grand Manner". In her dnlS- Mrs. Humphrey I tlon of rhnracter peculiar to in dividual artists touched upon the Jealousy that generally exlstei among them. This seems a peculiar trait that live on among artists of the pros ent day, sad to relate. I Keynolds preferred red. Gains borough painted the "lline Roy' to prove how wrong Reynolds could be. This great success ns a picture only proved that color, like truth, like the dlomand has many fa cets. Romney was mentioned as hav ing painted the blacksmith's slaughter eighty times. A picture by Romney which sold for one hundred pounds sterling sold th.i Other day by Sir Joseph Du vene f(j three thousand dollars. 1-awrem-e was mentioned as were others worthy of note. . Mrs. Glen Fabric talked on la ndscape pa lining in England showing that most of the portrait painters were Inspired to paint landscape but as landscapes simp ly would not sell they were forced to be portrait painters as a means of llvllehood. Crome was tho first English man to really take his stand as a landscape artist, then f .Mowed Gerlln. Turner. Constable, etc. it is doubtful If Turner i-ver has been or ever will bo excelled as a colurist. Mrs. Collins gave a resume of the months' work ami what It meant to Dolphin us nnd empha sized that the outstanding char acteristics of the period of Eng lish art was "elegance." She thressed the differences and similarity of diameter of the different artists, of the period and In what way each excelled. M i s. J oh n Cre wes ga ve a f i ne talk on tapestry she said tap estry was first Introduced Into England by the Saracens, it had been used as wall coverings and door hangings in the cold coun tries to protect the people from the cold. She gave many interesting facts and ndvanced that there was noth ing in all art so wonderful as tapestry. Anyone Interested can find much interesting material and food for thought ut the library. One more month will end the four years' Delphian course and a vote was taken concerning go ing on for another two years. R was decided to take up the additional two years course of fered from headquarters. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. R. V. Will- lams near Jacksonville.

Daniels, county court house Janitor, familiarly known as "Joe", who perhaps has start ed off more young couples Into the uncharted seas of matrimony during the past two years than any other person in Jackson county, nnd he seems to take a delight in being of service for whenever some strange couple ar rives for a license at the. county clerk's office. Miss Claudia Klum, always knows Joe Is nearby to act as a witness. A short, perusal of the license book yesterday afternoon revealed his name to be written on its pages with surprising regularity on the lino where witnesses al ways sign. 'Tis an old atory tu . him these blushing brides and stammering bride-grooms h can tell them coming when the reach the court house steps. 84 that Is why he is always pre pared. THIN NEED EXERCISE AS ILL AS SOT Kxerclse Isn't a fad or a form of self-expression, but Is as necessary as food. Insists a beauty editor. Describing the proper exercises for thin as well as fat, she writes: "Special exercises, to be worth anything at all, must be directed to our own personal needs and weaknesses. The stout,- sluggish type needs exercise to burn up the surplus . fat quickly, to harden flabby muscles nnd to quicken the circulation. The tense, thin type , needs exercises that are taken at a sfower tempo which, In addition to strengthening te weak spots, will ulso teach the body to relax. Nearly ull of us need regular foot fxerclses because our feet, encased In shoes all day, get much less natural play than the rest of tho body. And we need eye exercises to strengthen little-used .eye mus cles, and neck and chin exercises to make the line of the Jaw beau tiful and proud. "Tho Ideal wuy to rebuild your self by exercise Is to do It under an expert's direction. In gym nasiums and exercise studios di rectors have learned that most of our physical lacks come because we have not learned how to use the spinal column. "For the abdomen which has re laxed and has n tendency to pro- trude, take this simple breathing exercise, which Is nothing mora than proper breathing exnggerat- ' ed. Place your hand on the lower abdomen and drnw In the abdomU nal muscles with an upward mo tion of the diaphragm. Then Inhale deeply, pushing the abdomi nal walls outward. Singers learn to breathe In this way, not in the shallow uppermost chest manner which most of us achieve. Learn ' the feel of ft the straightening of tho lower spine nnd the raising ; und lowering of the diaphragm easily, smoothly." OLD SFRMON8 CHITICIZR WOMKX'S DKKHS 8TTTES CANYON, Texas.
