| Lawn fetes- have proved to be quite
the most popular thing in Topeka this
| summer and the Bethany campus is
| the accepted place because of its ac-
| feasibility and beauty. So two of the
Wonan's club teams headed by Mrs.
| Paul Pinkham and Mrs, E. r. Taylor
are planning fete for Tuesday eve
ming.
Tomorrow morning you will not
need to read the huge placards which
Will be hung from the street arches
and other conspicuous places because
this is what they will tell you and you
will already know it: Come to the
Betnany lawn this evening If you want
the best ice cream and cake there is
in Topeka, or II you want your for
tune told again, or for the first time
or il it is only a drink of lemonade
you crave. And If you don't want any
of these things you can come anyhow
just to visit your friends and neigh
bors. For after all tho it goes by
the name of Lawn Fete," it is really
nothing more nor less than a church
social with the church left out; or as
it is called in the country "deestricts"
where this form of entertainment has
an established place, a 'socia BILE"
And everybody dresses I'D and the
girls come with their best beaux and
the children bloom in new sashes and
the men wear their best hats and
humors-have a visit with everyone
| besides having the ice, cream and
luscious cake. It's the sort of a place
| where "a good time was enjoyed by
ALL"
The following young people will
| serve at this affair, the girls waiting
on the tables, the boys on the cars
parked outside:
Miss Alice Morehouse, Miss Baby

THE CHANGING CUSTOMS.
Times are not what they once were
we agree again and again; some times
1t seems for better and some times for
| worse, and most often they are Just
different, being neither better nor
| worse For instance, a woman of the
| older generation on seeing a young
l man and woman together at church
| inquired II the couple were engaged
| Their friends Thought they were not
| and asked why she asked The wom-
| an explained that IN her day for a
| young couple to attend morning serv-
i ice together was practically the
same as an announcement of their en-
gagement and unless they were ex-
pecting to be married 1t simply wasn't
done. Today It is quite as correct for
young man and woman to go tc
| church together as it is for them to
attend a dance or any other social
L ! function.
