CENTURY CLUB NOTES

The ladies of the New Century Club
met on Tuesday, Feb. 10th, in their Hall
with their new president, Mrs, Charles
Derrickson in the chair.
After very pleasing musical selection
rendered by Miss Blanche Eliason, the
president introduced Mr.. Turner, late
president of Hastings Coll g., Hastings,
Neb., who gave an interesting address for
about 80 minutes on the eternal City, "
wherein he portrayed the beauty of a
number of Rome's famous ruins, buildings
etc., such as the Roman Forum, Ethe Pan
theon, the Colosseum, st. Peters and
Others, quoting throughout his pleasing
discourse, with unusually fine taste and
correct rendition, passages from Byron's
Childe Harold illustrative of his theme.
Mr. Turner then explained the nature
and purposes of the local Chautauqua
movement which Prof. Paul NJ. Pearson
of SWarthmore, himself and Mr.. Carl
Collier were seeking to introduce in Mid
dletown and elsewhere on the Peninsula.
At the close of his address committee
of 10 ladies was appointed by the presi-
dent to meet with Mr.. Collier and confer
about the matter.
The following ladies were named as the
committee: Mesdames F. H. Moore, J. L.
Shepherd, NJ. B. Burris, E. Cochran, C. J.
Freeman, John Green, Howard Pool,
H. S. Schroeder, Misses Josephine Biggs,

members of the committee together with
several gentlemen, met in the parlor of
Mrs. NJ. B. Burris and carefully discussed
the whole question with Mr.. Collier, as to
the feasibility of the project, reaching the

scheme as raisineS140O or $1,000 in fact for
the privilege of having for a week the
local Chautsuqua in Middletown during
the summer.
The movement was highly approved
by all the members of the committee
