by Local Members to the First
Vice Grand Mistress of the AuxiI-
/ larry to the brotherhood of
Trainmen.
The gay kimonos and be1eweled Golf
fures of the dainty Japanese maidens
were initiated to perfection last evening
by number Of the young women and
the matrons of House of Hope church
who apparently donned with their
Oriental costumes many OF the Oriental
traits and who poured tea and distributed
their smiles with Japanese precision and
Japanese grace. The parlors of the
church where the social was held were
made to resemble as closely as possible
the interior of Japanese house or ship,
for there were gayly colored parasols
hanging here and there, bright hued fans
fastened in convenient inches and with
such pretty effect as to almost make one
forget the cold winds outside and use one
of the gay affairs In approved Japanese
| fashion. 1t was too bad, considering the
really artistic display made by the la
dies who had the affair in charge, that
the inclemency of the weather prevented
larger attendance, but the social,
though small numerically, was delightful
socially.
The affair was in charge of Mrs. Freder-
lex E. Foster and Miss Foster. Mr.. Fos-
ter gave an informal talk on the Phil
irpines, telling something of the habits,
characteristics and mode of living of
these dark skinned people. Mr. Foster
was for many years a resident of the
Philippines and his talk was interspersed
with interesting anecdotes of the different
people he met in that far away country.
After the address the members of the Y.
P. s. c. E., under whose auspices the So
cial was given, served refreshments.
