enjoying a delightful visit with
their daughter Mrs. Ruby Clock
Ter, and little Miss Margaret
Glockler. Mrs. GloclSler has just
returned from Japan where she
and her husband Mr.. Geo. Clock
Ter spent the past four years, and
where little Margaret was born.
Mr.. and Mrs. Glockler were
both graduates of the U. of w,
and the position that Mr.. Clock
Ter held while in Japan, as well
as the experience Mrs. Glockler
enjoyed as tutor to some of
Tokio's wealthiest sons and dau-
ghters, gave them an unusual OPP
portunity to meet and be enter
tanned in homes of wealth and
refinement that the usual visitor
to the Land of Flowers misses
entirely. Therefore they bring
home with them not only a fund
of most interesting stories, but
also many valuable gifts which
We're bestowed upon them by the
warm friends they made among
the japanese.
An afternoon spent with Mrs.
Glockler is filed with the keen
est pleasure, but by far the quaint
est and most beautiful gift she
can show one, is the little child,
with her fair bright face and
hair of silken gold. With her
pretty little japanese mamerism
and coquetries and baby speech
that is part Japanese intermingl-
ed with the most charming Eng
lish.
Fancy this little sprite robed
in wonderful japanese kimona
and you have a picture that will
never leave you while memory
lasts.
The Women's Club met on last
Thursday with Mrs. Aldrich and
enjoyed an unusually interesting
afternoon. Mrs. Glockler gave

samples of rich silks such as are

After the talk Mrs. Aldrich
served refreshments which are re-
stricted by rule of the club to
the greatest simplicity compatible
with hospitality.
