PARLIAMENTARY USAGE.


A Course OF Lectures to be Given by
Mrs. Noble Under the Auspices OF
the Daughters of the American Rev
olution.
1t is safe to predict that since the
days when the Saturday Morning club
gave its lectures in the lecture room
Of the Church of the Redeemer no more
interesting course has been planned
than that to be given by Mrs. Noble. of
Norwalk on Parliamentary Usage"
Although given under the auspices of
the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton, the object is not to teach wo-
men to preside at patriotic or public
meetings alone, but how to conduct
themselves in smaller business gather
ings.
There is generally a pitiable lack OF
order and system at such meetings, and
so a great waste Of time, which might
be spent at home or in the open air.
Meetings and work cannot be given up,
but time can be saved and the day is
not far off, we hope when women will
learn how to exhibit as much order and
dispatch at their business hours as in
good housekeeping.
There are only season tickets sold for
this course at the bookstores, because
Mrs. Noble intends to have her class
practice what she teaches. She wishes
them to take notes, and then to prac-
tice the rules given in the following les
son.
Motions" will be put" and car
ried,' amendments" amended" and
the feat of addressing all remarks to
the chair be acquired.
So we venture to say that the class
will be not only instructive, but i'm
mensely amusing and fully worth the
very small price asked

A SPLENDID PROGR4M
And in Aid of the Noble Work Which
Done by the WOmen's Exchange.

And in Aid of the Noble Work Which is
Done by the Women's Exchange.
Much interest is felt in the coming
entertainment in aid of the Women's
exchange, to be given December 4, in
Colonial hall Those having arrange
ments in charge feel justified in asking
the patronage of the public, because
of the entertainment offered. Mrs.
Hannibal Williams is one of the best
opponents of Shakespeare, and the only
woman in America who recites the
work of Shakespeare without notes.
Then, too, the exchange is doing a no.
BILE work and this is the first public
entertainment the society has ever
asked support for.
Mrs Williams will offer her audience
Friday night, THE Midsummer Night
Dream" which she recites with Men
delssohn's music, as arranged by Au-
gustin DAILY. The music for Mrs. Will
liams' scenes will be furnished by MEM
bers of the New Haven Symphony or
chestra. A large and brilliant audi
clce will doubtless be in attendance
f. iday night to greet Mrs. Williams.

NAVIGATION INSTRUCTED.

Norwalk, Dec. 1.-The recent storm
has added greatly to the big bank of
sand and gravel which has washed in
through breaks in the great wall to the
south and has totally obstructed nav
igation of the Great Marsh canal at
the entrance to Westport harbor. The
sand bank is now 300 feet long, and
waves have thrown up so much of the
top dressing that carriages can pass at
the highest tides without getting the
tires of the wheels wet.
