Although there is a pleasant pros
pect that there will be more going on
in the near future. just at present 1t is
rather un%eventful, and the chronicles
Of the week consist mainly Of a record
Of routine club events. Plans for the
summer will o o be in order, and 1t
actually seems that We are to have a
glimpse of spring at last.
The largest function Of the week
was the party which was rendered by
Mrs. Elrie Dahlgren Hiskey last Sat.
urday evening to the young ladies OF
the University Glee and Mandolin
clubs, and the beautiful apartments of
the Hiskey residence furnished an ideal
setting for the charming picture pre-
scented by the winsome lasses in their
fluffy summer toilettes. The rooms
were decorated with cut flowers in
pleasing variety, while masses of the
vivid California pepper were also used
with novel and pleasing effect. Sue
ceeding an informal reception in the
library, a musical program was render
ed by pupils Of Mrs. Hiskey's school
Of music, the soloists including Misses
Mary Watkins, Alice Hardman and
Walters. Mrs. Langheldt, 'the moth
er of the club" was a special guest,
and Miss Meredith Langheldt, its mas
cot, received the jewellers at the door.
Mrs. Hiskey was assisted in enter
tanning by the Misses Mary Watkins.
Alice Hardman, Walters, Edythe West
and Dora Lewis. The elaborate lunch
and canary we're the novel tints prom
inent in its perfect appointments. The
pretty place cards were adorned with
sprays of glowing California pepper
and We're tied either with ribbons Of
turquoise or canary, the wearers of
the latter tint progressing, as "blue
people always stay at home" If there
were any ''blue" participants in that
feast, however, they artfully conceal
ed their grief, and the fact that some
got into hot water by the manipula-
tions of the artful slave of the water
bottle added to the hilarity of the oc-
casion. A continuous musical program
was enjoyed during supper time and
afterwards the clubs rendered several
numbers while the assistants Toasted,
the old saying that "the waitress came
cut ahead of the favored daughter"
proving true, perhaps, as this second
merry party included several mem
bers Of the sterner sex who were I'M
expected but welcome guests. The
entire evening was most delightful
and the clubs p~rettily and effectively
expressed their pleasure and apprecia-
ton by parapharsing one of their most
popular songs very cleverly in honor
of the hostess. Imagine twenty-five
pretty girls grouped gracefully on the
grand stairway Of the Hiskey mansion
singing enthusiastically
Let us shout for Mrs. Hiskey,
Mrs. Hiskey, Mrs. Hiskey!
Let us shout for Mrs. Hiskey,
For Mrs. Hiskey we will shout
Rah! Rah! Rail-"
This was the pretty cen which
served as a grand finale for the even
ing. Mrs. Hiskey's recognition Of the
honors earned by the clubs this sea-
son is highly appreciated by their
friends also and all who were inter
ested will long remember with pleas
ure her gracious hospitality.
The session of the Tuesday Evening

the residence Of MI. and Mrs. Jacobus,

interesting of the year. Miss Ankrom
