CALENDAR RECEPTION OF
 TEMPLE SISTERHOOD

1 Secrecy and mystery surround the workings of the twelve chairmen of the calendar reception, to be given at Temple Emanu-El on May 9, at D. m., by the Sisterhood. l Each month will be represented by a table, presided over by the chair man and her assistants (the days of the month), and the decorations will be symbolic of the month for which it stands.
 A programme of features. each in the order of the calendar, will be pre- sented; and then, the social hour, with refreshments. will follow. 1 Mrs. Marc Linx, as 'Janua,J," prom l ises a list of new year resolutions by local leaders; and all Wi know her nimitable style are confident it will score one of the hits of the evening. Mrs. Frank Goldberg, who sponsors the month of February, has wonder full corps of assistants and all are anX- | ious to see what Cupid Valentine will bring them.
 March" is in the capable hands of Mrs. Herman Rich, and St. Patrick and the Irish will surely come into their own that night.
 Mrs. Joseph Smolian is Aprils chair man, and no one can doubt but that her table will be one of the most at tractive, considering Mrs. Smolian's talent, and how generous she is in her efforts to make things a success.
 Mays feature is still unrevealed, but | in the efficient hands of Mrs. Frank Simon we need have no fear as to it's originality and beauty.
 June" the month of brides and roses falls to the lot of Mrs. Mervin Blach. With such a subject and such chairman, little need be said of its assured success.
 July" our nations birthday has chosen Mrs. Robert Aland as its chap eron and a patriotic spirit and sig nficance will surround her and her co-workers Mrs. Aland's efforts in the past have fully justified the suc- cess that all expect from her enter prise.
 August" with it's hot and sultry days, will undergo a complete trans formation under the guidance of Mrs. H. Landsberger, and a cool, refresh ing scene Completely censored) will await the eyes of all.
 September" the month that brings with it the opening of school, comes under the direction of Mrs. Leopold Loeb, and she promises to make us all long again for School Days, Dear Old Golden Rule Days"
 October" with its golden colored
 
 under the leadership of Mrs. J. A. Goldman, who hints at dark mysteri- ous secrets and revealings to all who grace her board
 Turkey time, the month of Novem- Der, belongs to Mrs. H. Schwartz, and who shall say it will not be beauti ful and unique under her skillful man agement.
 Mrs. Sol Myer stands sponsor for De- cember, and no one is eligible to this table who is not a grandmother. Can you not visualize it, and can you inn agine anything more interesting and promising?
 Every member of the Sisterhood is expected to take an active part in the preparation of the affair and the en- tertainment of it's guests, and other associations of similar nature must look to their laurels. as this promises to eclipse anything ever undertaken by local organization.
