yALDOSTA SOCIETY

Valdosta, Nov 29.-One of the most
delightful social functions of the sea-
son in Valdosta was the Thanksgiving
reception rendered by Mrs. Allan
Strickland to the ladies of the Wynn
odausis Club. The handsome home on
Patterson street was a scene of sur
passing beauty during the evening, the
decorations being of bamboo, palms,
holly, chrysanthemums and roses. In
the dining room streamers of ribbon
were tied from the chandeliers to the
corners of the large dining table, and
the room was lighted by a 125 small
incandescent lights. The game of the
evening was a contest in drawing,
each of the guests being required to
give pencil sketch of their idea of
Thanksgiving turkey. Pads of paper
Were hung along the wall, and the va
rious contestants were given a limited
amount of time for the work. The
judges were Mrs. j. o. Varnedoe, Mrs.
]. II. Trump and Mrs. C. c. Brant-
ley Mrs. Strickland was assisted in
receiving by Mesdames w. H. Grit
fin, T. CT. Crawford, Edward Hudnall,
George Terry ]. H. Trump and Miss
Annie Twitty A delightful lunch was
served by Misses Edna Briggs, Lucy
Twitty, Mabel Terry and Sadie Thig-
pen From band stand in the rear
of the hall. EMPOWERED in decorations,
delightful music was rendered during
the evening.
The Seminole Club was delightfully."-
entertained yesterday afternoon by
Miss Alberta Dimmock and her home
on home on Savannah avenue. A score
of young ladies' were in attendance,
and the occasion was pronounced one
of the most pleasant in the history of
the Seminoles.
Mr.. and Mrs. Di Ingram of Boston

were said to be due almost solely to
the third act of the piece which pa
irons came again and again to hear.
1t has never been presented outS0.e
New York and a few of the larger
Eastern cities, because the American
rights to the play were exceedingly
difficult to obtain. Even now, the Eng
lish rights to the piece are tied up in
the London courts. Miss Lynden has,
however, bought outright the Ameri-
can rights for this season and will APP
pear as Sophy Fullgarney. the mani
curist. She selected the play because
the part was one ideally fitted to her
temperament and personality. Her sup
porting company includes such well
known players as Brandon Hurst! AL
den Bass. Frank H. Crane. John Hons,
Ann Warrington, Adele Clarke, Ada
Zell, Harriet Sawyer. and Others. and
is altogether one of unusual strength
The play concerns the attempt of
Lord QueX, most notorious roue to
marry Muriel Eden, a very unsophiS-
ticated young woman with whom he
has fallen deeply in love, and who has
brought about his reformation. Muriel
is a foster sister to Sophy Fullgarney,
proprietress of a manicure establish
ment, who. on account Of her profess
sion, knows a good deal about Quex,
and endeavors in every way in her
power, to prevent the union of her fos-
ter sister and Quex. While attempting
to spy upon Quex she suddenly finds
herself locked in his bedroom, and a
most brilliant and unusual dialogue en-
sues before Quex is enabled to con-
vince her that his Intentions toward
Muriel are entirelyt honorable. The
prices are: Matinee. orchestra, rs and

The first offering of the Savannah
School of Acting will be Pinero's brill
liant comedy drama, THE Benefit of
the Doubt" at the theater Wednesday
night.
Those who are familiar with Pinero's
plays know what to expect in THE
Benefit of the Doubt" 1t is in three
acts and the plot is woven around a
divorce scene, which is the result of a
wife's indiscretions with an old friend.
The dialogue is clever and epigran-
matte, the situations are worked IN
well and the play altogether is an ex-
ceedingly bright society play. As may
be supposed. some of the situations re-
quire subtle handling to appear at
their best.

seen in a number of amateur produc-

Do You Know Your Letterai

Any man who can read would prob
ably resent such an imputation of ig-
norance MS this question conveys. do
you know your letters" Is what Is
asked the little tot when he or she first
sets foot in school. But grOwnup men
and women may be pardoned for be-
lieving they are speaking the truth
when they answer Eyes" to the Ques-
ton. The chances are, however, that
they don't know their letters. Why
has "a" Its present shape? Stumped
the first time! Every American ought
to know that. A takes its shape from n
picture of an eagle. B was once the
picture Of an Egyptian bird. d repre-
scented a mans hand. + was the horned
viper. The two upper strokes are the
remains of the horns and the perpen-
dicular line the upright body of the
viper. H was once the semblance of q

We got our letters from the Ph9ni-

from the hieroglyphic picture writing
of Egypt. So don't be so sure OF your
knowledge next time you are asked q
simple question.

SIMMER DRESS MATERIALS.

There are beautiful organdies and
batistes in printed figures and embroid-
cred designs. Many Of these, especially
the batistes, are made with a border
running the length of the material at
one side, these being designed especially
for use in the three-flounce skirts, which
are to be much used this summer. The
borders often are of pale colors, with
delicate tracery of wires running across
or in festoons. Some exquisitely sheer
and fine linens in the natural shade of
fawn are shown in the good shops, most
of these being woven with satin stripes
or brocaded effects of flowers in white.
Examines and fine albatross and veil
ing, as well as crepe de chine, will be the
materials most in favor for summer
street and afternoon gowns. OF course,
they will not push the useful foulard
from it's place in the affections of the
women who have tested its wearing quail
tiles, and found them most reliable, but
these plain toned materials will be rather
smarter. Much lace and quantities of
very narrow black velvet ribbon are the
two most definite notes in the spring
symphony.-Harper's Bazaar.

COLI GE AND DOMESTIC DUTIES
1.-THE Economic Relation of the Col
lege Woman to Society" is the title of an
interesting paper in Education. 1t is
compiled from answers to questions sent
to hundred college graduates. In an
swering this question, Did your college
life in any way lessen or increase your
opinion of the ealue of domestic duties?
nearly half affirmed that college led
them to higher appreciation Of the
value of domestic duties. Three said
that during the college course their
opinion of domestic duties was lessened.
The others thought their opinions were
not in any way affected.
Increased by seeing how miserable
housekeeping could be, and how depend
ent one was on decent food for strength
to get along in work, p" was one comment.
Another was, sit was increased by the
poor food served"
One question referred to the place Of
household economics in the college cur
riculum. The answer was nearly uni
form that it was not part of the course
of the individual writing the response.
One said, "If am not mistaken some of
the professors considered such work as
outside the purpose of the college,"
