This month is surely replete with
special days Inc the hostess has the
choice of an almost unlimited number
of schemes adaptable to all sorts of
entertainments.
Fol Lincoln's birthday, on the 18th,
patriotic features are, of course, in
order. This is a good plan to follow:
Decorate with flags and the ever
attractive red. white and blue. either
in cheese cloth or crepe papers,, which
may be used with fine effect. A pretty
way is to make a ~latticework of strips
of paper across the ceiling in the din
ing room, placing flags and lanterns
at intersections.
After the arrival of the guests, pass
booklets tied with red, white and blue
ribbon. with a picture of Lincoln or
the little old log cabin surrounded by
q rail fence.
The company may be paired off into
working partners by means of ques-
tons and answers on the front of the
booklets in this manner. The man

of her program; etc. Then the guests
are conducted into a room which bears
this placard: Museum of Curios Con.
nected with America" The list of OBJ
jects given may be changed or en-
larged upon to suit the convenience of

xx1 DIRK OF WOMEN'S
CLUBS THROUGH.
D D OUT THE A D

The Bay View club of Fargo, which
met with Mrs. ". Fl. Stewart was an
open meeting with invited guests.
Miss Hill of the department Of art at
Fargo college gave a paper upon the
the Community" The word dyna-
mic in this connection meaning a pro
pellinG agent. a force. Art is our
emotional means of communicating
with our fellow men. 1t has been said
that art is non-progressive: that it
serves no useful purpose: does not
raise the moral tone OF society: adds
no new truth to mans stock Of
knowledge: does no. make man bet
ter or worse. On the contrary, 1t is
a spiritual necessity. The influence
of art may be good or bad and wheth-
err 1t tends to advance or retard. So
ctety depends upon its quality. The
need Of the present Is to cultivate the
appreciation Of the beautiful. True
art is found in the civic life of a peo-
pie and in order to develop 1t must
be bound up with industry. After a
century OF wastefulness our country
has awakened to the fact it must con-
serve its resources and to this end the
industrial arts bring as much influence
to bear on society as n of the crea.
tons of purely artistic genius. Its in.
iuence Is felt in the architecture of
its towns and landscapes, its art gal
leries. libraries and parks. ano through
it, newspapers. magazines and pub
lie schools. as the best g for
transmitting thought.
Art is a dynamic factor in society
because it is life itself and is Of great
assistance in the uplifting of man and
in the perfection Of character.
The adres was greatly appreciated
by the large number present. The
hostess served refreshments.
