cello Of tho hlonevcomb.

Honeybecs are generally credited
with instructive skill in making the
cells of the comb heXagonal in
shape, but it is probable that this
construction is merely the ordinary
result of mechanical laws. Solitary
bees always make circular cells, and
the bees in hive no doubt make
them circular also, but mechanical
pressure forces them into a hex
agonal form A well known natural
ist in speaking OF the matter says
that all cylinders made Of soft, plia-
bic substances become hexagonal
under such circumstances.

Nondescript Club
Mrs. Will Eisele was hostess for
the Nondescript Club Thursday
afternoon and evening, and
certainly George Washington s
birthday was never more royalty
celebrated than on this occasion.
The spacious rooms of the Eisele
home are always attractive in
their artistic appointments, but
they were unusually pretty on this
occasion, with their decorations
of flags, bunting, hatchets, cherries
and cherry trees. The dining
room was especially beautiful, the
color scheme being in red, white
and blue. From the four corners
extended these colors to the
chandelier, under which a gor-
geo us CHEEKY tree was placed,
loaded with cherries, while at each
plate, George Washington hats
were placed, filled with nuts and
candy cherries. The program for
the afternoon was one long to be
remembered. Mrs. DIR. Aplin
read paper on "The effects of
our political problems on the minds
and home life of our women"
reproduced in this issue' Mrs.
Theo. Tritsch, story entitled
SIN the days of Washington, Z"
and Mrs. Ira Lindley an original

presented some very interesting
excerpts. Among them was Mrs.
DR.. Finney's Scriptural conun-
drums, Mrs. Phil Rochester,, a
planting party contest, Mrs. Chas.
Rose contest pertaining to war,
and recitation by Mrs. M. N.
Parsons, telling of her childhood
dreams of Washington. Mrs.
Lawrence Yerges and Mrs. Ed.
Tritsch responded with lnstru-
mental solos, and Mabel Rose with
a song, entitled dreaming"
AT five O'Clock a banquet was
served, and we know George never
imagined such delicacies could or
would exist as were served Thurs
day evening. Mrs. Eisele was
assisted by Miss Eva Hiatt, Miss
Mabel Rose, Olivia Wright, Rhea
and Irene Gladman, and last but
not least, the jolly host, Mr.. Will
Eisele, Who added much to the
evenings pleasure. After supper
cards and finch were played by
those who remained, and prizes
were taken at cards by Mrs. Col.

A real blue Sunday came 20 Atlantic
City. Many persons familiar with the
history OF this far-famed resort have
been inclined 20 doubt the possibility OF
such thing but Sunday every one OF
the 22O saloons and hotel bars were
closed. They were closed alike 20
bonafdo guests as well as 20 strangers
just arrived within the gates. Ii is
said that this was the fourth time in
the ffty-four years of its existence that
a drinkess day had been experienced
Ia Atlantic city. a bulletin posted at
police headquarters stated:
saloons all closed. No troops in
town"
Another bulletin. officially signed by
the chief OF police. consisted OF a card
on which was printed

and hotel men reluctantly accepted the
advice OF the mayor and OF the more
conservative men in their organization
and closed their places Of business as
tightly as they knew how. Screens
came tumbling down Saturday mid
night and remained down all day.
Boardwalk cafes that on Sundays past
have been thronged 10 their utmost
capacity. serving liquors and food.
were all deserted. White-aproned wait
ers stood idly by the vacant chairs
surrounding the once coy little tables
and thought regretfully OF the gaia
Sundays that were gone. A visit during
the height OF the afternoon crush on
the boardwalk TO one of the most
widely known cafes facing the famous
seaside thoroughfare disclosed the fact
that not a single patron was in the
place. The proprietors declared that
the loss of the drink privilege had Ger.
ried with II a nearly equal loss in the
sale OF foodstuns.
There was a decided decrease in the
size of the visiting throng. though
many persons came from Philadelphia
and Ney York out OF sheer curiosity
to see what Atlantic City looked like
on dry Sunday. The majority Of the
boardwalk multitude here. however.
seemed not TO mind the change Of con
diuons and enjoyed themselves in
other ways during the morning and al.
ternoon. The gay night scenes in the
cafes, the music and the singing were
perhaps missed more than any other
feature OF the resorts changed Sunday
life. There was indeed an air of Sab
bath quietude all the way from the
Inlet to Chelsea.
