 The club Is now making a study of ancient Rome. An excellent programme had been arranged for this meeting, but because of the absence of a number of participants on account of the heavy rain, it was only in small part rendered. However. there were some interesting dis 'cussions and Mrs. McLendon read splen- did paper, the subject of which was An | cient Cities of Northern Italy" Mrs. Cow herd furnished the opening musical num- Der.
 The programme necessarily being made short the feature of the occasion was the social hour Mrs. .Cowherd Is never more gracious than in her entertainment of the Pierian club.
 Dainty refreshments in two courses were served. There was pretty sugges- ton of the clubs colors in the decora- tions and as we went away, all wearing club violets, we could not but regret that SO many of our members had failed to enjoy so pleasant a meeting in this gracious home.
