The coolest weather Of the season was
not too severe to be braved by a large
number Of the members of the Woman's
Club last Wednesday, for the meeting
was one Of unusual interest in many
ways. The business session was very i'm
portanit, and the art department. had pre-
pared an exceptionally attractive pro-
gramme for the occasion. The claims
Of st. Valentine were not forgotten, and
dainty souvenirs of the day were painted
by Mrs. Clark and presented to each one
present. On the cover Of the lheart-lshap-
ed card were depicted fascinating l.ttle
cuplds, floating airly above the inscrip-
ton Art Day, February 14th, 1900"
Whether the art referred to was that Of
cupid, or Of the Florentine school, has
not been explained. On the inner leaflet
of THE valentine were found quotations
which appropriately supplemented Mrs.
Clark's comprehensive review Of the
works Of Leonardo da Vinci. whose genius
neither time nor the ruthless hand of the
restorer has been able to vanquish.
Leonardo's beautiful conception Of the
Last Supper was made the subject Of
special study that afternoon, n another
souvenir, a small reproduction of this
picture was given to every one, after
Wh.dh Mrs. AtWater read a DETAILED des-
%cription of the famous painting, and was
followed by Mrs. Grigg, who ave a vivid
account of the present sad condition Of
the masterpiece, against which aver the
elements seem to have combined. The
music department will be in charge of the
