ties and other events already planned
is d long and interesting one. The
ladies OF the Catholic church will give

always opens the gay season most
au~spiciously. On the cath OCCURS the
Episcopal Easter fair, whlcn will also
be held at M~aennerchor n IL ana the

studied by the Union, beginning at its
next session, and Mrs. George Patterson
gave an interesting and comprehen-
sive sketch of the life of tn great
mis- work. A smelling contest was an
amusing feature of the afternoon,
twenty tissue paper parcels testing
the oilactory powers OF the ladies', with
remarkable results, one declaring that
turlentine was kerosene and others
making equally funny mistakes after
surprising their poor with so
many articles that all smelled exact
ly alike. Delicious refreshments were
served. Mrs. Charles Miller will en-
terrain the club at its next session.
