The May fete at the College of the
| Sisters of Bethany which opened last
night and will be concluded tonight
! was beautiful spectacle and we'll
worth while. The Bethany campus
was never lovelier than 1t is now and
| the weather, an important factor at
| an al freSco entertainment, is pro-
pitious so the fete can scarcely fail
| to be marked success. One of the
| most interesting features is the arts
| and crafts exhibit under the direction
| of Mrs. Alice Worswick, teacher of
art. Many of the arts and crafts
things are for sale and they will
| doubtless serve to advertise the de-
partment extensively. Other features
| of the fete are the toy store. full of
human dolls, the Japanese tea room,
and the gypsy fortune telling camp.
The Bethany girls, from the primary
roles of dolls. gypsfes, and Geisha girls
charmingly. The fete will open at
1880 o'clock tonight and a general in
vitation to the public is extended.

place late in the week and the first OF
next month will bring Mr.. and Mrs
Thompson (Mary E. Peck) from Wash
| ington, and Mr.. and Mrs. George Will
son Isabel Peck) from Philadelphia to
| join the family party Annually the sum-
mer reunion of Mr.. Peck and his fam
lily forms one of the most delightful
house parties in Oconomowoc. Each
member assumes a special duty for the
| time being, and as Mrs. Earring takes
upon herself the entire responsibilities
OF the housekeeping for her father dur
ing this period she is usually first upon
| the scene Now that all of Mr.. Peck's
daughters are married, with a second
generation growing up, children's af-
fairs as well as those of grownups form
an important part of the summers fun
Mr.. Earrings parents, Mr. and Mrs. A
J. Earring, have the place adjoining
that of Mr.. Peck, and the two families
| having intermarried they seemingly
make one large gathering. Mr.. and
Mrs. Earring will go up to their farm
the house for the summer until late
| in the month. Then they will be ac-
companied by their daughter, Mrs. Law
renee Fitch (Harriet Earling), but Mr.
Fitch will not be with the family unit
fall. He will sail from New York to-
| day to spend at least the next two
months in European travel, Mrs. Fitch
| remaining behind to care for the little
daughter and the infant son who form
their family. Mr.. Fitch's trip is taker
| in the interest of his health. A veal
ago he suffered a stroke of paralysis
| his life being despaired of for some
time, but last summer was spent in the
country and last winter in southern
California, and he now is almost re-
covered. With Mrs. Fitch he returned
from California only ten days ago.
