CHECKING CORSETS AT
DANCES CONDEMNED

Chicago, Feb. 5.-The Women's s
Christian Temperance union may have
made the country dry, but they are
not satisfied with their work and still
have lot of labors to perform. Mrs.
Robert Mccall, one Of the leading
workers Of the union, was the princi-
pal speaker at the national meeting,
being held here, and here are some
excerpts from the speech she made to-
day:
81 have been told by supervisor
of girls in one of our schools that the
reason the young women wear those
little silver bottles attached to wrist
chains is that they contain specially
prepared perfumes, made with large
per cent of alcohol, which the girl
consumes.
"Our young girls use language that
is shocking and immodest and flaunt
cigarets before responsible women in
public places.
"The world has changed, indeed.
Last night sat in the dining room of
my hotel. noticed at the bottom of
the menu an admonition to women
against smoking in the room.'
The practice Of checking corsets
at country clubs and other fashionable
dances also was condemned by Mrs.
Mccall.
The delegates agreed that there

Donny brook Community Club is Pros
pering.

Last summer DR.. Alex Carr of
Fargo in an address before Work
mems picnic in Donnybrook talked
along the lines Of community getting
together, or breaking down the imag-
mary line that does not really exist,
between the country and the cities and
villages, the getting together as
friends and neighbors in community
picnics, parties and gatherings of
every kind, developing community
spirit of mutual helpfulncss.
DR. Carr's words seem to have taken
root in the neighborhood of Donny-
brook and are bearing fruit, in two
community clubs, one in Donnybrook,
covering all the territory surrounding
and one in White Ash township east
Of Donnybrook
That this get-together movement is
a success is evidenced by these two
successful clubs, each having their
meetings every second Friday evening,
but alternating so as not to come on
the same night
At these club meetings or enter
tainments they have readings, music,

ASSN OF COMMERCE AND TOWN
CRlERS BANQUET FEBRUARY Is

community singing, cards, dancing and
lunch
Imagine five or six hundred people,
old and young, joining in singing such
old-timers as Old Black Joe, Marching
Thru Georgia, Dixie, and about doz-
en- more old ones, all singing with a
zip and go, old and young alike, some
off key perhaps, but all, every one,
the desire for harmony, the satisfac-
tion of lifting up their voices and
helping, helping to push along the
principle of get-together in mutual
helpfulness and friendliness
It does good to every one having an
ounce of the spirit of kindness in their
system, to see some of the old ones,
Fathers and Mothers, joining in the
play-time singing, dancing, renewing
their youth, mingling, playing with
their children and grandchildren
The first meeting of the Donny-
brook club was attended by about two
hundred, this number has grown and
grown, like a snow ball rolling down
hill, until at the last meeting Friday,
Feb 4th, the attendance was over 700,
this meeting was entertained by the
Caroline Smith Co. and by DR.. Leh-
man, lecturer, followed by dancing,
card playing and lunch.
The lunch was served by a detach-
ment of the American Legion, who
served the multitude in less than 30
minutes-no wonder the Germans held
up their hands and cried Kamerad if
these boys handed them the shells at
the speed they handed out doughtnuts,
sandwiches, cake and coffee.
The next meeting will be held Fri
day, Feb. 18th, in the new High School
auditorium, and will open with a
home talent entertainment, followed
by the usual singing, dancing, cards,
and last but the best of all---the eats.
