 The committee is desirous of pre- senting favorite selections from each opera taken up and will enlist the interest of Mir. Costigan in trying to procure some of the operas at the Empress. Two musicals annually will be feature and the funds from them will be devoted--one to the Library and one to the Building Fund of the Woman's Club. This department hopes the program thus reviewed will interest those just now in doubt as to which department they will belong to this coming year. From the proceeds of the Operetta a gift of fifteen dol lars will be given the Building Fund and one of ten dollars donated to the Library.

Saturday afternoon was the closing meeting of the department of Home Economics. On that day interest was at white heat for it was the closing day of the contest for attendance. Singular as it may seem almost every meeting has seen the two sides tied and on this occasion the losers lacked but one to have again called a tie. The winning side will be the guests of the losers on next Friday after noon at the matinee and later will enjoy their hospitality at the Con lection Den. On Saturday at the meeting, a number of business mat ter were discussed. Pertinent ques- tions concerning next years work taken up and splendid program ar hanged for, A special course will be studied and the chairman Miss Emma Jones promises profitable years work. Mrs. w. F. Griffin was demon strator for the afternoon and served most refreshing strawberry ice with small cakes. As the subject was on "Cold Desserts" the following recipe was copied:
 APRICOT MOUSSE
 1 pt. canned apricot.
 l cup heavy cream.
 Y cup home made orange marma- |, Jade.
 Powdered sugar to taste.
 1 Banana.
 Rub banana and apricots through a colander add the apricot juice and marmalade. This mixture should be very sweet; if not, add powdered su- gar as may seem necessary. Fold in to cream, whipped stiff. Pour into mold, cover closely and pack in equal parts of ice and salt for three hours.

to hold up the money that he has con-

agreed to give them the purse for
boxing exhibition and when they box
the ten rounds they will have fulfilled
their part Of the contract He believes
that if the commission should decide the
bout was not satisfactory and try to
withhold the purse the boxers could
sue him for the amount he had con-
tracted to give them.
