The state cam paign for nurses is to open on Monday and will last until August Il. AL though the campaign has not yet opened but already applications are being made in large numbers from all over the state.
 Successful is the word that best applies to the lawn fete that was giv- en last evening under the auspices of the Catholic Charitable Bureau on the grounds surrounding the Chapter House of the Knights of Columbus. A goodly sum was secured that is to be applied to the various charitable works that come under the care of this bureau. All of the parishes in the city were represented and the at- fractions were many and varied. The afternoon was especially devoted to the children and there were a great many present who thoroughly enjoy ed the special program that had been arranged for their benefit. A num- Der of local and amateur musicians LOOh pdI III Lllc C1llCI pIO- gram and 8 part of the classes from D. c. Quilty's school of dancing did admirably, one of the special features being the interpretation dancing of Mrs. Elmer F. Blank.
 One of the biggest affairs that has been given at the Black Rock Shore and Country club since it's inception was the moonlight fete and dancing last evening. There were over 800 guests present and the cement tennis courts where the dancers greatly en- joyed the snappy music furnished by Spetdeps orchestra were thronged every minute until 1t was time to go home. The first part of the evening was rather warm but a delightful breeze came up that cooled the at mosphere appreciably.
 The opening of the evenings en- tertainment consisted of a medley of old time war songs played by speidel's orchestra in which everybody joined with hearty zest. This part of the program closed with the singing of the Star Sapngled Banner" There were also solos by George Rajotte and Emanuel Ahlverd. William Seltsam, who has attained quite a reputation as a classical dancer, delighted the company with his graceful work. Several of the pupils of Miss May Hall were seen in interpretative dances and Mrs. Judith Landberg Fathers lovely soprano voice was heard in several solos among them Keep the Home Fires Burning" Manager Matt Saunders sent out two acts from Poli's that made 8 great hit, Madame Dore's Allied Song sters," and Sid Townes and Company. Manager B. F. Champion is to be congratulated on the splendid menu l that was served.

The Black Rock Shore and C@ntry club is one of the pleasantest places to while away the hours that can be found anywhere around. The com mittee in charge included: Mrs. Frank E.
