The Reliance Club. which was shaken
out of its former Headquarters on San
Pablo avenue, Is now located in the new
armory on Twentieth street which is grad
uaily taking on very cozy, clublike ap-
pearance. Last evening the new head
quarters was formally thrown open and
the feminine friends and relatives of the
members were honored guests. The
weekly skating night. on which the
members may bring ladies' was inaugu-
rated and pronounced great success.
The current of Unity Club events has
been unshaken by recent seismic agita-
tions and the regular meetings have taken
place every two weeks. On Tuesday
next the members are anticipating a
pleasant evening, as the programme is In
the hands OF Mrs. L. H. Cutting, Miss
Edythe Morley and Miss Givens.
On Friday evening, June /, the club is
preparing a grand concert and entertain
Inent for the relief fund. 1t will take
place in Wendte Hall. adjoining the Uni
tartan Church, and several names we'll
known in musical circles are on the
programme. Llewellyn Hughes, the
young violin;st, who met with such sue
cess in Europe, and who has not played
in public since his return to Oakland, will
be heard. Mrs. Margaret Davis Hughes,
the gifted young pianist, is another name
to conjure with. The excellent work of
Mrs. Charles Poulter soprano, and Miss
Hilma Buttlar, the reader, is too familiar
to be expatiated upon. The Hughes Club
will probably give a choral number and a
quartet, including Robert H. Williams,
Charles Poulter r. M Hughes and John
Williams, will complete the musical END
of the programme. Another attraction
offered is one-act farce, The Obstinate
Family with the following well-known
amateurs in the cast: Charles Mills, Miss
Eta Eiben. DR.. Fred E. Wilkins, Miss
Edythe Morley, Sam j. Whitlesey and
Miss Theresa Curran. A small admission
fee of 25 and so cents will be charged, and
as the Unity Club entertainments have
the reputation of being worth while the
relief fund will probably be augmented by
a tidy sum.
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Sueell and Miss
Alice Sueel, their daughter, will leave for
Europe next week. They will visit Eng
land, Scotland, Ireland, Wales France
and Germany, and expect to be absent for
a year.
