~LANCING backward for q mo-
y ment, there really isn't a thing
to talk about except the Woman Is
club reception, and that - course, was
of unusual interest as It was given to
honor Mrs. Charles II. Cashier, promi-
aent club woman of Hood River, and
president of the Oregon Federation of
Women s clubs.
The affair was given Thursday after
noon at the Zadoc J. Riggs residence,
and was the premier event of the ear
1y fall.
The residence was charming with
zennias and asters in a riot of artistic
coioring, and the prettily-appointed tea
table was decked with a huge basket
o. vivid hucd marigolds and silver
candle sticks containing orange can
dies. Mrs. Alice II. Dodd, president Of
the Salem Woman 5 club, presided over
the samovar and was assisted by Mrs.
Thomas @. Smith, Jr., Mrs. Henry j,
Schulderman, Mrs. William IL. Burg
hardt, Jr. Mrs. Chauneey Bishop and
Miss Mabel Robertson.
Assisting about the rooms were Mrs.
Ri~9s, Mrs. Alice h. Dodd, Mrs. Will
liam Kirk, and Miss Matte Beatty.
During the tea hours about 60 prom
inent club and society women called to
welcome the distinguished honor guest,
who made the afternoon memorable by
an interesting talk. The first half Of
her address %pertained to club work and
TO the biennial convention Of the Ma
ti0nal Federation of Women 8 clubs,
which she recently attended in New
York.
Later she talked in the interests of
h Council of National Defense, ex-
planning why the registration of the
women will be effective. She also urg-
ed every woman to do her bit, if only
in registering.
Mrs. Cashier is an exceedingly clev-
or talker, and in addition to being
brilliant in thought and speech, she
also is very charming, and has in the
few times that she has visited Salem
made many friends.
The fact that women like Mrs. Cast
ner are speaking to the American wo-
men on patriotism and relief work, is
in itself certain to keep alive the pulse
of patriotism, which has begun to throb
in this country through their efforts.
A charmingly appointed dinner was
presided over Thursday evening by
DIR. and Mrs Floyd L, Utter, who en-
tertained a small group of friends on
the occasion Of their fourth wedding
anniversary. The rooms were decked
with roses, dahlias and smilax, SINH
lar blossoms also adjoining the table.
DIR. and Mrs. Utters guests were Dir.
and Mrs. Frederick II. Thompson, Mr..
and Mrs. Ray i. Smith and DR.. and
Mrs. Grover Bellinger.

The practice of giving chain bridges
for the purpose Of enjoying that fasci-
mating game and at the same time be-
ing especially patriotic which has been
indnlged in throughout the east, where
over $4,000 was raised in New York
city alone for patriotic work, is soon
to be adopted in Boise, Idaho, for the
purpose of raising funds for the wo-
men s committee Of the Council of Ma
tional Defense.
These patriotic parties also
would be a most charming
excuse for Salem women to indulge
in their wonted hospitality this winter,
and would be an excellent way of rails
ing funds for relief work. The plan ar
ranged by the women of Boise is as
follows: A hostess asks a dozen or
more guests; each guest upon accept
ing obliges herself to pay 20 cents or
whatever the sum may be for the pleas
ure of the afternoon s games, and to
act as hostess to eight or twelve guests
also, under the same conditions, giving
the fund so raised to the treasurer Of
the Red Cross or some other relief So
ciety. The hostesses serve the simplest
of refreshments at these gatherings
and the prizes, if there are any, are
very inexpensive.
