U. D. C. Meeting.

The Fannie Scott Chapter, L. d.

the pretty home of Mrs. W. ]. Myers,
on West Rush Avenue, last Tuesday
afternoon. Despite the gloomy
weather a large number OF daughters
were in evidence. The program
while not ofgreat length was highly
interesting. the historians article es-
peeially attracted attention. Mrs.
George Frew furnished some choice
music, Miss Jessie Myers also, for one
of her years displayed rare talent in
her musical selections. Mrs. Jose
phine Glass in her most original
manner read selection BETTING the
occasion. One important feature of
the program was a parliamentary
drill conducted by the president in
which many perplexing questions
were clearly elucidated and proved
of great benefit and satisfaction to
4 few individuals, After thus being
entertained, the hostess capped the
climax in the way of novel contests
by placing a table covered with
thousands of tiny beads with needles
and thread supplied for each guest,
setting them to the task of string
ing, at the tap ola bell, Miss May
Watkins proved herself an adept in
the art and captured the handsome
prize. The last number did not
prove the least interesting which
was clearly demonstrated by the will
ingness of all to partake since it
came in the form of an elaborate
luncheon served by the hostess, as
sisted by her daughter and Mrs, IL.
D, Glass. The chapter will meet
with Mrs. A. ]. Vance next month.
