THERE'S A WOMAN IN OUR TOWN
Who has consented to marry man
whom she has seen but four times.
But both the woman and the man are
sufficiently attractive in appearance
and engaging in manner that there is
no trouble in understanding how they
could fall for each other even short
of the fourth meeting.
The Topeka branch of the National
Collegiate Alumnae association is
planning a social affair of Importance
to be given after Easter. The party
will be a silver tea, and it is expected
to be one of the big affairs of the
spring season The proceeds will be
used for the benefit OF the Tubercu-
losis hospital of Topeka
The association is one of the new
organizations of the city, having SUI
perseded the College Alumnae club.
1t is made up of women graduates of
colleges of standard rank, and num-
bers among it's members some of the
most prominent women of the city,
both socially and intellectually, tho
it's membership is not limited by any
means to society women, but only to
those who qualify Internationally. 1t IS
the purpose of the club to engage IN
active sociological and philanthroplc
work, and for their efforts next year,
some definite plans will be worked
out 1t is their wish~that the present
year should not pass without some
work being accomplished, hence the
planning of the tea to be given soon
after Lent is past.
