in white taffeta coat suit with a white
hat and lingerie waist. The reception
was held between three and four O'Clock
but madame was little late arriving
and left few minutes before four so
that many who called were disappointed
in their expectation of meeting her. Mrs.
Hoch and Mrs. George Parkhurst re-
ceived with her and the members of the
Ladies' Music club assisted. The house
was decorated with many spring bios
SONS, tulips predominating, and the
many beautiful spring toilets worn
made the scene impressively gay and
brilliant.

The action of the owl sorority of the
high school in abandoning their plans
for their spring annual, the date Of which
was set for June l. in order to devote
the money which they would spend in
entertaining to the San Francisco re-
lief fund is being generally commended
and ought to go far toward removing
/ the prejudice which exists in some
/ minds against the high school sororities
1 and fraternities- The Owls include
I some of the sweetest and prettiest young
! girls in town. daughters of prominent
! families. They had planned an elab-
crate dancing party for their annual
spring entertainment and it is safe to
say 1t cost them some small pangs to
/ give 1t up. There are whole lot of
the Grown Ups who are rather inclined
/ to mock the frivolity of the Mellins'
| Food crowd who would not be capable
/ OF similar sacrifice. After all. youth
Is the age of heroisms as we'll as of
/ frivolity. Long live the Owls!
