MRS BUTTON ENTERTAINS

At the Crystal Confectionery from two to five o'clock, Tuesday After noon, Mrs. Charles Dutton entertained thirty-six of her friends delightfully."- with a Valentine party.
 The place was a bower of palms, ferns, and pink and white carnations a fairy bower aglow with pink lights; Navajo rugs lent home-like air, and altogether the effect was charming. There were tables numbered in hearts, for cards, where time flew by on magic wings after which, dainty hearts of pink and white ice-cream were served with three kinds of cake such as only The Crystal makes. Amid music and the chatter of happy voices, time passed all too swiftly and five o'clock found the ladies loath to leave, declaring Mrs. Dutton a most charming hostess.

Woman and civic Responsibilities.


In so far as one can generaliZe from
the experience of the last few years,
women are taking all their new civic
duties with commendable thorough
ness. The widespread activities Of
the women's citizen associations have
done much to arouse the female voter
to the realities, and more especially
the responsibilities Of civic life. And
these excellent bodies have worked on
likely material, for those women who
have thrown themselves into public
affairs have not erred on the side Of
undertaking the value of hard work.
Tutors who have to teach adult stu
dents Of both sexes have rarely been
able to censure women students for

Advertising Sign In Japanese Effect

2 by 4-inch material. The signboard
proper, the part that contains the adj
vertising announcement, Is made by
riveting together several sheets Of gal
vanized iron. The corners are re-
inforced with heavier metal, SO that
the whole sign may be held by chains
from each corner, as shown in the
drawing. BY exercising little care
as to location and with tasteful ar
rangement of inexpensive shrubbery
about the base, the appearance of the
whole will be decidedly pleasing and
the Japanese effect of the signboard
will be considerably heightened
