The following papers were enjoyed
by all present:
Paper on Anton Rubenstein, by Miss
Bertha Westheimer

Miss Maude Goldberg.

Westheimer, and last, but by no means
least, we had the pleasure of hearing
from Mr. ] Mortimer Lewis, who told
his experience of the last few years
as Alkali Ike and Tampering With
Trif1es. Among other things he re-
lated meeting a young lady who told
him about one of his masterpieces and
insisted on repeating same for him, as
follows:
| wish [ were a wooden pier
That reached away out to sea,
So all the pretty bathing girls
Could come and sit on me.
This entire talk was humorous and
was deservedly enjoyed.
After this, at call from the chair
man for criticisms, Or. Wilmer arose
and gave some interesting data on Mr..
Freeman's paper, which was we'll re-
ceived.
On the whole, the program was we'll
nd
treat.
