Monday afternoon Miss Rosalie Ly-
man entertained her friends alta French
euchre party. 1t was red and black
party in honor Of the recent victory of
the red and black flag on the ball
ground. The prizes were won by Miss
Emily Kimball, Miss Belle Head
and Miss Stebbins.
Tuesday afternoon the ladies of the
town were entertained at Kemper Hall
with five o'clock tea, which was given
in honor of the teachers in the school.
Tuesday night the history class held
their second meeting at the residence
of Mrs. Farr No decision was reached
as to future meeting place of the club,
but DR.. Smith kindly offered her rooms
for the association, and if the member
ship of the club does not increase this
will be a very desirable location, as it
is central for all and has the advantage
of being a semi-public place, which
has it's advantages over private house
where all might not feel at liberty to
go. The meeting was conducted in a
very spirited manner by Mr.. Mcdowell,
who, it is plain to be seen, intends to
keep peoples wits on the jump and
start up a little brain circulation. It's
what is needed, and by the end of win
ter we expect to see q very learned set
of people among us.
Wednesday afternoon the Woman's
club of Kenosha held their second
meeting at their club rooms, where a
very interesting paper on "The Cru
saders" was read by Mrs. William
Farr. She drew for the cub a very
vivid word picture Of the middle ages
with their attending virtues of chivalry
and herosm and gave brief account
of some of the most noted leaders, as
Peter the Hermit, Walter the Penniless,
Godfrey, st. Louis, ETC., and went more
into details concerning that most curl
GUS event of those times, known as the
q Chidren's CRUSADE" when thousands
and thousands Of infants, marshalled by
y
lives in march toward the Holy Land,
the greater part of them dying before
reaching Constantinople. The discus
sion was ably led by Mrs. Curtis, who
gave a very interesting account Of the
eighth centennial of the Crusades, now
being carried on in France. The sub
ject Of feudalism was clearly explained
to the club by Misses Gill and Petre.
Among tie others who spoke were
Mrs. Charles Allen, Mrs. Strong and
Mrs. Kimball. The meeting adjourned
for the usual cup of tea, to meet again
il, two weeks, when paper Oh " Pau
perism" will be read by Miss Hastings.
Wednesday night being the twenty
first anniversary of the arrival of Steve
Kehlor on this terrestrial globe of ours,
a very small dinner was given in his
honor by Mr.. and Mrs. John Kehlor at
their home on Congress street.
Society in this town must have
reached very curious state, when the
fact is acknowledged by one Of our
leading society ladies, that she is I'M
able to give a luncheon in honor of
friend who is visiting her, much as she
may desire to do so, there actually not
being ten society girls in town who
have returned her politenesses in the
past. We would offer our humble ad-
vice and suggest to the defeated host
ess that she try giving dinner and see
if she can't have better luck with the
men. MAX GREY.
