Luncheon for Nurses.

This may not appeal to very many
of our readers, but 1t certainly was an
unusual affair. A daughter of prom
inent family in her home town, tired
Of the pomps and vanities of this
wicked world, determined to take a
course in nursing. Much to the sur
prise of herself, friends and family,
she continued to the end and gradu-
ated with honor. This surprise lunch
con was arranged by an elder sister.
The table was covered with blue cham
bray, exactly like the hospital uniform,
the centerpiece and plate doilies were
of white linen, each having a red cross
embroidered in the corner, the oppo-
site corner had the guests monogram.

There are very few periods of the

When the earth is in this state it

This action of the soil in becoming
so hard and smooth not only helps to

LOW HEADED
FRUIT TREES
Many OrchardistS Believe That
Nearer to Ground They Can
Head Trees the Better
They Are ShOrt.LiVed
and UnS1Sht1y.

(By f. r. CANF1ELD)
At the present time many orchard
lists believe that the nearer to the
ground they can head their trees the
better and thousands of trees have
grown up like bushes without any
training at all, each shoot from near
the ground striving to become the
body of the tree
The trees grown in this way will
come sooner into bearing and have
greater bearing surface, but are
short lived and unsightly, are easily
broken down by the wind and weight
of the fruit. In certain parts of the
country where the trees are exposed
to droughts and hot winds, would
advise low-headed trees, but as a rule
l am in favor of medium high train
ing. The branches after the tree
comes into bearing should protect the
trunk of the tree from the sun during
the summer.
The heading should be high enough
to secure growth of branches at
nearly right angles with the trunk,
otherwise they will form what is term
ed mal-formed crotches, owing to the
natural tendency of the branches to
an upright growth. Every tree should
have central shaft and the branches
should be evenly distributed. Care
must be exercised in pruning not to
allow a side branch to get ahead of
the center

The ice cream cone Is here to stay,
the children love it and-on the quiet
so do the grownups. At an open air
bazaar given for settlement" there
were all sorts of attractions, but the
North Pole grotto was by all odds the
favorite. Built of white materials,
covered with "sparkles," with Teddy
bears Of huge proportions, and ones of
smaller size clambering up the sides,
while on the very tip top big white
bear loaned by an obliging fur house,

Open Air Gard Parties.

Like Tennyson's little brook. bridge
apparently goes on forever" With
these warm days morning parties are
quite the thing, with a luncheon
served at one, the party beginning at
eleven, or the luncheon is served at
one, the game following on the porch
or lawn. For these outdoor affairs
camp chairs are used, rugs are spread
and iced drinks are served at intervals
during the game.
1t is pretty fancy to use cards with
outdoor scenes or landscape" backs,
l believe they are called, different
styles at each table.
At one outdoor party the prizes
were all rustic baskets filled with
flowers and fruit; at another the host
ess gave each guest a Japanese flow
er holder in metal, and the prizes were
green pottery bowls; just the thing
for the holders. 1t is now quite the
thing to carry out one scheme in dec
grafton, and prizes; a definite color
scheme, or prizes and favors to CORE
spond. At one porch party of four ia
bles, the hostess gave each guest a
dainty apron and the four prizes were
elaborate handmade aprons. Hanging
baskets and wall receptacles add much
to the beauty of the porch, when filed
with seasonable flowers.

Large AUDIENCE
APPRECIATES Lecture

Tho Kilohana Art League rooms
were literally crammed On Saturday
evening when Prof. Valentin Buehno,
gave his illustrated lecture on Goethe's
Faust. This was the opening event of
series of lectures and musicales to
lie given under the auspices OF this
League.
Goethe was the last, and therefore
the most modern. Of the great writ.
ers." so stated Prof. Buehner In his
opening remarks. Johann WOlfgang
Goethe was born in Frankfort on Aug
ust 2S. 17i9. In the autumn of 1865
he was admitted as a student to Leip.
sic University. He first saw a crude
production of Faust" played in a
puppet show. In 1890 Goethe began
his real hard work on the production
of his great masterpiece. and devoted
his whole time aAd talents to this
wonderful composition until within q
few months of his death, which oc,
CURED on March %. 1882.
Prof. Buehner explained and touched
upon the most beautiful and forceful
passages of this work. Let Mephis
topheles, that peculiar son of chaos
try his worst. and at the last discover
how earnest striver's ways are justi
fled by God. Faust may wander. err
fall, and grievously offend. but for
him who ever strives upward, through
all his errors, there Is redemption In
the end"
The audience was at times con
vulsed with laughter. especially when
Faust seemed reluctant to- let the
devil go, as 1t Is not very often that
man can possess devil; at other
times their sympathy was aroused
when Gretchen was In prison and
condemned to death. Through the
whole play Mephistopheless is seen
trying to tempt Faust In manner
that Is almost unbearable, and al
though Faust falls, yet he rises and
In the end is victor over this Prince
of Darkness.
"Goethe's famous poem attempts to
show that mans longing after knowl.
edge may lead him into many errors
and falllngs, but cannot destroy his
better nature. Goethe's Faust was
arranged for the stage by w. G. Wills
In 1885. Among the various English
TRANSACTIONS that by Bayard Taylor
Is one of the most important The
well-known opera of Faust by Gounod,
was first produced in 1859"

gram which has been arranged for
the next few months; and II is to be
CONGRATULATED for having presented to
