Name for an Entertainment

Can you give me the word or term
for an entertainment where each guest
is requested to perform some stunt,
music. dramatic. story telling, legerde-
main, dancing. card tricks, conundrums.
etc? 1t is single word, significant of
the whole | have heard 1t. but am un-
able to recall It. / hope there Is some
one In your large constituency who can
give me this information. 1t Is not
symposium a second request; | wish
instruction in the game OF bridge, but
have been unable to find u class near
me and private lessons are too expen-
sive. Professional teachers charge the
same for one as for four pupils. | un-
derstand the value of cards and all the
simple games which are played. | hope
some one can assist me. An, early reoog-
milton of these requests Will be appre-
ciated. Here Is a recipe for drop bis
cuits Two cups flour, four teaspoons
baking powder, one teaspoon salt two
teaspoons lard or lard and butter mixed
together one cup OF milk and water
mixed. Drop into gem pans or muffin
pans and bake in quick oven.. This
recipe will make IL biscuits.
"E. II. r."
! recall no more expressive word than
symposium" Yet there may be tech
meal term with which l am not ao-
qualnted Watch for reply to this
and to successding questions. Never
having found time for card playing In
long and busy life, | am u veritable.
ignoramus as to bridge. Are there not
manuals which would teach what you
would acquire as well as classes?

A Woman Who Needs Help

] am cutting red tape at more than
one point in arranging the miscellany
for today. What stands first on the page
belongs of right to Wednesday or Sat
urday. Moreover, l have no right for
two weeks to come to ask for clothing
of any kind, Circumstances that excuse
me to myself for infringement of self
imposed rules will, I hope and believe,
amply justify me in the eyes of humane
readers Read patiently to the end of
the letter Just received from a most
trustworthy and responsible source and
act as your heart and right judgment
dictate.
"A sad story has been this hour
brought to me of a poor woman who
needs help. She is only 81 years old,
the mother of three children, ., and
6. She expects to be confined at any
time now. She is In no way prepared
for the coming little one. She is par
alyzed in one leg from the knee down
and can hardly walk. owing to her
three children and in her condition she
cannot work to support them. Her hus-
band was a lineman on line construc-
ton, and his work was SO dangerous
he could not carry life insurance. He
died six months ago, leaving her PEN
niless. She owes a couple months rent,
has no fuel, only what n woman who
lives with her can supply, and has a
fear that she will be put out into the
street. A friend who works at the hos
pital has spoken to physician with
regard to the woman's case and he has
promised to give her good care during
her confinement, so that is off her
mind. | called up the charities to-day,
They promised to look into her case and
help her, providing she is worthy of
1T. This case seems most deserving OF
help. OF course the Corner cannot make
an appeal for money, but am sure the
woman would appreciate anything she
could get. There are many good people
who would be glad to help her. The
woman who lives with her has written
to you and you kindly gave her the
name and address of a woman who Of
fered bed. She was going out to see
her today, and l gave her the name
of Mrs. Nick, who offered the baby's
clothes. She was also going to see
her. VIII you kindly see what you can
do in the way of putting people who
have things to give--such clothing
or anything useful-in touch with Mrs.
IL? / shall also hold her name and ad-
dress at our office and do what | can to
help her, at least until she is well and
strong again. A. W."
In the very heart of the most bitter
spell of weather we have had this win
ter the above pitiful story is laid upon
my desk. After reading 1t | am con-
strained to lay aside copy" prepared
for this date and substitute this appeal.
As our friendly correspondent says, we
cannot take up a collection in money
for the woman so sorely buffeted by
fortune. We hope that the orderly in
vestigation of the board of charities
will result favorably for the stricken
creature. Whatever 1t may do for her
cannot relieve all her needs. ] place
her in the arms of our constituency.
Her destitution Is real and present and
not a moment is to be lost If we would
be of service to her. Her address is in
our books. What report shall render
to the constituency at large of what
we have been able and willing to do
for her?
