WOman's Club Meeting.

The first regular meeting of the Wo-
name Club was held in st. Marks
Guild Hall last Friday afternoon with
a good attendance. There was a
great deal of interest shown in the
coming years program which embrac-
es all departments of club activities
The president, Mrs. Mabel Coughlin,
gave a splendid opening address to the
club members in which she spoke of
the splendid work that had been ac-
complished in the past. by woman,
what she is doing now, and what she
expects to accomplish, morally, physi-
cally, scientifically and spiritually;
this is the era of woman, and her pos
sibilities are unlimited.
After the address, Mrs. Peter Gard
rer and Mrs. George f. Gay gave :
resume of their western trips to the
San Francisco and San Diego Fairs.
All this was highly entertaining to
those of the club who were not so for
tunate as to be there themselves. At
ter a short business session, the meet
irg adjourned to meet again this af-
ternoon in the Guild Hall at o'clock.

1t is given to few individuals the
privilege of celebrating birthdays
above the three score years and ten
surrounded by old time friends and
schoolmates, but one of Palatka's we'll
known and well-beloved DANES, Mrs.
Mary F. Benet, enjoyed this rare
pleasure last Saturday, when fourteen
of her friends gathered at her home
at eleven o'clock and whiled away the
time in jest and Renaissance, till one
o'clock, when they were invited to the
dining room, which was Hastily deco
rated in lavender and green. In the
center of the long table reposed the
birthday fruit cake, baked by Mrs.
Benet, bearing the dates in white
frosting- 1S40-1915. On one side of
the dates were seven candles in tiny
silver sticks, and on the other side
were five candles, making seventy
five years the lady was young. One
interesting fact about the party was
the presence of four of Mrs. Benet's
school mates of by gone days in ear
ly Palatka. They were Mrs. E. W.
Gray. Mrs. Margaret Shelley, Mrs,
R. NJ. Jeffries and Mrs. Mary Jen-
nings. The other guests included,
Mrs. NJ. E. Boyd, Mrs. Fannie Burt,
Mrs. Mary Alice Hickman, Mrs. R. J,
Adams, Mrs. Horace Blaney, Mrs.
John Granger, Mrs. Patton Anderson,
Mrs. C. l. Rowton and Mrs. Lackore.
The table groaned with its burden of
good things to eat, such as turkey
with dressing, cranberry sauce, roast
pork, macaroni, mashed potatoes, rice,
tomatoes, bread, home made pickles,
peaches, fruit cake, pound cake coffee,
tea and tutti fruitti cream. For souve-
Mrs, Mrs. Benet presented each guest
with a little basket made with her own
hands of Florida wiregrass, filled with
fruit cake tied up in lavender rib
bons. Mr.. and Mrs. J. D. Lane, dau-
ghter and son-in-law, with Miss Min
ME Blanchard, Miss st. John and liz
tie Mary Belle Lane served the guests.
Mrs. Benet received many pretty gifts
and the many cards and other epis-
ties received by that estimable wo-
man, only show in what love and re-
gard her friends hold her. Mrs. Ben

of friends wish for her many more
