special Invitations. are being sent
with Extraordinarily cards. to all the
new members n those who renewed

members and friends o. the "Y" are
to receive their notices through the
public press and it is expected that
many Of these will find it convenient
to attend the party SO as to give the
new members a rousing good welcome.
The plans SO far as made sound
good, and include appropriate decora-
tons and refreshments, music, speech
es. the 7 song, the business girls
yell, Easter bonnets. and all the rest,
just the right combination Of the grave
and the gay to make a happy evening.
The date is Thursday, March %, at
the association headquarters, Ala -12

Of the association family, has been UNI

good program appropriate to Easter
is being planned for mex Sunday.
Any young wonlan whose Sunday is

things with the secretaries and other
