PASADENA

Because of the terrible calamity which
befell San Francisco on Wednesday
morning most of the social entertain
ments scheduled to take place during
the latter part of the week have
been postponed. Quite a number
of the clubs which had planned
great functions followed the action of
the board of trade in either abandoning
the meeting altogether or in postponing
it and in either case sending the money
which was to have been thus expended
to San Francisco to swell the relief
fund. One of the leading clubs which
did this was the Twilight club COM
posed of many of the city's foremost
citizens. This club was to have held
it's regular monthly banquet at the Ho-
tel Maryland. Quite a number of private
card parties and dancing parties and
receptions were likewise postponed.
A very merry party of young people
gathered on Thursday night at Ku-
ranaga's dragon tea room as the guests
of Miss Nettie Dewey. The affair was
given in honor of William L. Thacher Of
Thacher college, and a number of pu-
pills of that school here with him on his
vacation. japanese viands We're served
and an orchestra played Japanese airs
from the balcony during the evening.

Societv is forgotten.


In the great call for help, which has
gone out from San Francisco suffer-
ers, everyone has fallen into line and
has done her part. Nearly all social
affairs have been postponed and the
money given to San Francisco.
Caste has been forgotten and the So
ciety women have Joined forces with
the 1owly i'm one great effort to help
their suffering sisters of the north
All the members of the women's or
ganizations of the city have given up
all engagements and have banded to-
gether and have worked every second
of the last two days to get things
ready to send up north. Sewing ma
chimes have been donated and the wo-
men have kept them going incessantly,
making clothes of every description and
kind Those women who pride them
selves on their cooking have baked
nearly 10000 loaves of bread, which
have been packed and sent up to allay
the hunger of 10000 people.
In time society will regain its old
routine. but it will have been uplifted
in thought and action by the sympathy
and spirit OF self sacrifice which has
filled its heart these last two days.

A Suggestion

Following is a suggestion to the
women of Los Angeles, sent out by
one of the practical workers: Let
each woman of each family pack a suit
box with a complete outfit of clothing,
such as business man or woman can
put on to go about their work-under-
clothing, toilet accessories, shirt waist
and skirt or suit-not forgetting hand
kerchiefs, collars, belts, gloves, etc.
These articles need not necessarily be
new. but they should be clean and
fresh and ready to put on. The boxes
should be securely wrapped and tied
and marked with the waist and skirt
measures of the persons for whom the
clothing is intended. Let us share our
wardrobes, as well as donate our "old
clothes"
