On Club Program
Thursday Morning Study club

munity clubhouse heard Mrs.
Leland Mentzer review "Hex
Marks the Spot" by Ann Hark.
Written by a newspaper woman
the book (Ives an interesting
history . of the Pennsylvania
Dutch colonists who came to
America In the early days upon
the Invitation of William Penn.
As the author points out, the
Dutch have not mingled with
other races coming to this coun
try and as a result their cus
toms, religion, art and daily life
has remained almost constant
to the pattern laid out In the
old country.
Particularly Interesting are
their festivals and their art
which is formed on the most
part about the symbol, hex. Al
though the author tried through
out her entire book to discover
the meaning of this Dutch sym
bol she closed the last chapter
with the mystery still unsolved.

the timely subject of "Pan
Americanism" told of the his
tory and llberatlv movement

was for this country to Join the
other neighboring countries In

Import from South America

tant feature in a good neighbor
