That the time is ripe to push the
! club house project, seemed to be the
| mans club tea at the Elks' club yes
terday afternoon. All that is neces-
| sary to make it go now is sincere con-
| sistent work on the part of the mem
| bers and close cooperation. Mrs
| Margaret Hill McCarterS Mrs Wilbur
l. McEaehron made short talks during
| the afternoon on the subject of the
| club house. Mrs, c. A. Wolf was
| elected chairman of the committee
for raising funds for the building.
| Most Of the time yesterday was de-
voted to getting acquainted and meet
| ing people and there was little BUSH
| ness talk. The team captains were
| hostesses and all of the club members
| were invited to be present: and as
| some one said, it was a mighty good
looking bunch of women" and il they
| didn't know it they failed to use their
mirrors. To be good lolzing and eff
| ficent at the same time Is about as
| much as any woman can hope for
| or any woman's club.
| Mrs. ]. C. McClintock. Mrs. F. W.
Watson, Mrs. Bennett R. Wheeler and
| Mrs. McEachron poured tea. Mrs o.

room, and Mrs. r. F. Jack. Mrs. r. NJ.

con this noon in honor of Mrs. John
Dean, jr-. who. with Mr.. Dean, has
come to Topeka to spend the winter.
| They have been living in Utah. At
this luncheon covers vert laid for six.
! If measured by the satisfaction and
| enjoyment of the audience which
listened to Ruth Blackman Rodgers
last evening in the Washburn college
auditorium, the concert was a decided
| success. While Mrs. Rodgers IS not a
singer of temperament. she is a fin
| ished artist and sings with delicacy
| and refinement. Her program was
composed of three aria numbe, s. a
French group of songs and an Eng
lish group, which made it well bal
Ianced.
| The program at the Minerva club
| meeting, held at the home of Mrs
| Morton Albaugh Monday afternoon.
was particularly rich in guest num-
bers. Those outside the club who
| contributed were Prof. Ignatius Tello,
i IL L
| ~, formerly of Lincoln, and Miss
Adele Foster. The study of Spanish
literature and MUSIC was the basis of
the program. Tello's contribu-
tionS we're of unique interest as he is
| a South American of Spanish parent
age. He played two Spanish compo-
sitions with all the fire and spirit char
acteristic of his people Miss Foster
entertained the club with two inter-
pretative Spanish dances dressed in
costume. Club members on the pro-
