dent. Mrs. Riddle, made an inform
al but eloquent talk, thanking the
members for their loyal support
and friendship and promising to
serve the club in the ranks with
the same zeal and devotion which
has characterized her long service
as president. This closes the third

enjoyment she had gained by at
tending the Convention of Kinder
garien workers of Texas while in
Dallas, and urging the club women
of Chickasha to emulate the self
sacrificing zeal Of the Dallas wo-
men by which they have succeeded
in establishing free kindergartens
there, and now bid fair to have
them incorporated in the Public
School system. After current
events the new year-books were
distributed and general satisfaction
expressed with the work of the
Executive Committee and the
printers. Adjournment followed,
where upon Mrs. Dwyer took
charge of the meeting and led the
way into the dining room where
was a table decorated with large
wreath Of cape jasamiHe flowers
in their rich glossy foliage. The
table was futher adorned with
plates whereon a dainty and ap-
petizing feast of chicken salad
olives, salted almonds, bread and
butter sandwiches and accompanied
by a cup Of coffee with whipped
cream Following this course was
lemon rind cups. topped with crys-
talized violets and cake. A cape
jasamine boutopiere was given each
as a souvenir. After the inner
wDman had been thus feRaled a
contest Of wits followed. The
hostess gave each member a little
book tastfuliy and elegantly made,
wherein were verses of certain
queens Of history. the names to be
supplied by the clubDists. After
much amusement and some hard
thinking the contest closed and it
was found that Mrs. March had won
having named fifteen Of the twen-
ty queens. In recognition of her
superior erudition, Mrs. Dwyer
presented her with a copy Of the
celebrated BodeHhapsen Madonna.
Mrs. Viva Nail Robertson
of caddo, I. r., who is visiting at
Hampton Hall was a welcome
guest Of tha Club on this occasion.
