 Close Successful Cooking School
Nearly 2000 Women Attend Graphic's Free Home Eco monies Course and All Appeared Appreciatve of
 Opportunity Afforded to Improve Methods.

The Free Home Economies course, conducted at the Shrinc,s' temple last week by Mrs. Kate Brew Vaughn un- der the auspices of The Graphic, closed yesterday shortly after noon, when Mrs. Vaughn bade her friends in, the audience adieu, expressed ap- preciation of thes mafly courteses shown her by the ladies here, and voiced the hope that it would be her pleasure to again Qisita Pine Bluff next year. Mrs. Vaughn spoke kind ly of The Graphic and the broad atti- tude of it's managemeEt in foregoing profit that could have been made through the school by increased ad- vertising in the paper, and conducting the course strictly for the benefit oi the ladies of Pine Blutl and vicinity interested in putting the home on an efficiency basis.
 The weeks course WIS great suc- cess from every standpoint, and many women have eXpressei their regret that the engagement was for one week only. Others, unable to attend, have written of their regret, and re- quest that Mrs. Vaughn's book of recipes be sent them. Many of these requests have come from ladies re- siding outside the city, and the books will be mailed them from Mrs. Vaughn's headquarters in New York city. All who desire this book may procure it by mailing the request, together with name and address. to The Graphic.
 Mrs. Vining Gets Cabinet. The handsome enameled Hoosier cabinet, used by Mrs. Vaughn during the week, was given away yesterday
 by Reap. & Crawford Furniture com | pany, and was presented to Mrs Fred Vining.. Another lady, whose name was not obtained, received a handsome cake Mrs. Vaughn had pre- sented to the Public Library associa- tion.
 Mrs. Vaughn yesterday expressed
 herself as highly pleased with the
 week, and says that she loves Pine Bluff women. She has reached all l classes and types of people in her work, and says she gets inspiration and help from every class she teaches. In her address yesterday, she asked and answered many ques-
 tions, and expressed appreciation for | herself and The Graphic for the CO., operation accorded during the week by Reap & Crawford, Fox Brothers, Knox-Walker Furniture company and
 others. She said she was deeply grateful for the courtesies accorded
 her, saying the ladies had been more than cOnsiderate in their attention,
 sending her many evidences of thoughtfulness, and that she had been regretfully compelled to decline num- erous invitations for auto rides and other social attentions. Mrs. Vaughn
 is just as efficient as she seems to be, and shortly after the final lesson of the school, she had her parapher-
 nalia packed, and left in the after noon for Hot Springs where she con- ducts a course this week. Next week she will be in Little Rock.
 The best feature of the school, as seen in .+ho -,"'~ospect, was the in- spirational attitude of the teacher. Every one was inspired to do better work, to look upon their work as op- portunity, and to change their work and attitude at the same time.
 Many women remained after the close of the demonstration and lec- ture yesterday to ask last question. or to thank the lecturer, and there were many expressions of regret at Mrs. Vaughn's departure, and hopes expressed for her early return to the city.
