Mrs. Selah Merrill was the interest
| ing speaker at Kilohana Art League
yesterday afternoon, when every avail
able foot of space in the lecture room
was filled with members and their
| friends, eager to catch every word OF
the speakers. Mrs. Merrill spoke in
the freest, easiest conversational man
ner. Her long residence in Jerusalem
and her familiarity with people and
customs provides her with a fund o.
information which few people who
visit that country acquire. She has
, the happy faculty Of portraying the in
teresting everyday life of all classe'
from Jerusalem, so that her hearer
imagine themselves in the midst o
that ancient city hearing the cries o
vendors, the call for prayers, and thu
wailing of the women. She mentione'
her opportunities of meeting many ce
ebrated people, and of making interest
. ing trips to famous places.
: The audience was more than please
with the afternoons lecture. TIL
, speaker was served late in the after
noon, and an informal reception helt
:. Mrs. Perley Horn and Miss Boshe
, poured tea.
