 The Cosmos Club of Forrest City stands in the front rank of the many splendid Women's Clubs in Arkansas It's annual programs of study for twelve years have embraced many in teresting topics, including the GUS toms, literature, authors, music, con- posers, and other important matters pertaining to many countries, and in their pursuit have been quite exten- sive and comprehensive, and altogether interesting and instructive. The present club year being devoted to the study of Greece, the history of which is perhaps the most interesting of all countries, and, which strange to say, is less known generally, and seldom discussed by and among lthe people in their daily social intercourse and con- yersation, or at clubs or other gath erings.
 Once each year the club celebrates it's anniversary in a fitting manner and with an appropriate program, and is hospitably entertained by some one of it's gracious members.
 This year ths duty, honor and pleasure fell to Mrs. A. Becker, whose reputation as a delightful hostess needs no commendation from us, and on Monday afternoon the doors of her elegant home on North lZard street were thrown open to welcome the members of the club and their friends, for be it known that on the anniyer- sary occasion each member has the 1 privilege to invite one friend, and few, if any, indeed of these invitations are ever declined. Suffice it to say, then, that there were large number of guests present. and each will long re- member it as one of the most pleasant occasions in the history of their lives. Mrs Becker was charmingly assist ed in receiving by Miss Freeman, and each guest was heartily welcomed duu Iudde u Iccl dC liOhlC.

 After the program had been render ed. and it was greatly enjoyed, a most unique contest was entered into by all present.
