bers have been added to the club,
And-ft is the desire of the officers
that all of these be on hand for the
stag this evening.
Professional entertainers are
coming from Chicago to present a
vaudeville program. This part OF
the program will begin at II
o'clock. In the interim there will
be music by negro jazz band, ath-

and thirsted for the true light from
heaven, SO she sat at his feet and
eagerly listened to his words.

and perhaps with touch OF jeai-
