THS 8AXEM CAPITLT JOTONAIi, SALEM, OREGON. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1914. THREE Social and Personal Notes ByMollie Runcorn JAUNTY HAT, CAPE AND MELON MUFF OF VELVET AND SATIN HAVE always loved to write, "i the boys' Suuday school class, were all noerally patronized. at I said Mrs. ,V. Y. Fargo, of 10H5 A Kivfh street. whRn naked hnw- she came to associate her name with this department of work, "even as a very small girl,. X spent much time in put ting my imaginings on paper and weav ing little odds and ends, picked up from happenings in real life into fanciful lit tle tales. Then in my college years i decided to specialize in literary work, and during my attendance at the Uni versity of Chicago, taking up Lutin ami English seriously, 1 prepared myself for story and scene writing." Mrs, .Fargo has been a contributor to McCalls, Hollards and other popular American publications, her latest work to be accepted ucing a series of six short stories appearing in "American iilotherhood." Three cif the series, "Polly-Alice and the Qnurentine, ' "The Hand of Providence" and "Pa,' have already been published, the last one being in the October number. The remaining stories, "The Homely One," "The Grandmother of the Story" and "Good Times Together," will probubly be in the January, February and March issues. Mrs. Cargo's first literary ef forts were written under the niiuie ot Ida Scofield Fargo, the first being her maiden name. This sho decided :; too long, and ehatigeu it accordingly to Huth Fargo. -Delightful real and imaginary char acters furnish the basis of her stories, which are written .with the thought ot practical helpfulness uppermost in the authoress' mind. Her first story to Aprons of every variety from the plain gingham to the fine, frilly, fancy kind, were found at one booth, where dainty, hand-made ar ticles suitable for Christmas gifts were also on display. Delicious home made candies and confections were placed at another, and found a ready sale. Each person, upon ariviug, was sub jected to a -measuring test, and fined a small sum in accordance to their height. This unique method, besides netting a substantial sum, was also the source of much amusement. Steam ing beverau.es and wholesome snnd wiches were served gratis at an attrac tive booth by Mrs. Fred Barker, Mrs. A. uregson and Mrs. A. M. ('lough. Ihe whole altair was in charge of the Ladies' Aid society of the church, who will begin plans immediately for their annual New Year's dinner. Mrs. Virgil Uoyd, of Spokane, ar rived Sunday night and will remain for a month with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. If. H. Savage, on North Front street. Her husband expects to join her for the holiday season, after which thev will prohauly return to their home. .T. A. Churchill, state suiieriutendent of public instruction, will speak on "School Legislation" this afternoon in Library hall, in Portland, before the Portland Grade Teachers' association. Mr. and Mrs. S. S. East entertained VILLA HAS NOT YET the "American Motherhood" brimfull 119 Thanksgiving day guests .Miss La of human interest, found an entbusius tic purchaser and brought an immediate and insistent demand for mote of the same kind. Hor stories are told in a clever and entertaining way, and. each delicately veil suggestions of methods ami ways of helping those about us. Mrs. Fargo is a charming little w man, modest, and taking her enviublr gift as a matter of course. Differing from most writers, she is a most char itable and generous critic of (ho work of ohters. Literary work she takes up as a side issue, jottings of thoughts ami idons being put down whenever they present themselves. Outside erf this work and her home keeping she finds time to actively identify herself with social affairs, a Pnroiit-Tcnchcrs' asso ciation and a civic improvement and literary club. Although reticent upon the name and plot, Mrs. Fargo confesses thai she is lit present engaged on a larger and more important work than nny pre viously undertaken, which she promises to make Known a little Inter. Professor and Mrs. Fargo hnve re sided in Snlem five years, threo of which Mr. Fnrgo was connected with the science department of the high school. They arc happily located in an attractive bungalow on Noith Sixth street, which shares with its lovely frivol surroundings ill the admiring comment of pnssorsby. The measuring social and bazaar bold in the parlors of the Jason Lee Methodist church last night was very largely attended and was a decided sue cobs, both in securing a goodly sum to e used as a general church benefit and in furnishing a pleasant evening 's social diversion. The program, under the supervision of H. A. Ilnnis, con sisted of readings by Mrs. Atkins, Mrs. J. Montcalm Drown, Professor Dotson and was followed by an old-fashioned spelling bee, in which the older at tendants contested ngainst the younger, the former receiving the honor of be ing the most proficient spellers.

Knfner, on South Fourteenth street, for scverul weeks. "Arizona," presented by local talent, ami generally conceded as being the best of any similar affair ever given in Salem, was greeted by an equally large and enthusiastic house lust night ns that noted at Monday night s performance. The participants. inane comment uy tneir success of tho previous night, again went through their roles in a faultless manner. It has been suggested that the play bo presented in Silverton, and should' this action bo decided upon the members of tne caste, accompanied by a goodly number of friends, will probably make tho trip the last of the week.
