Barrie. Mrs. McCluskey's interpre-
tations are always pleasing and her
impersonations artistic and this Sc
lection seemed cleverly fitted to her
audience. She so perfectly portrayed
| the spirit of ambitious woman rising
in revolt at the assumption that her
happiness must depend alone upon
the success of others, success that
! she may claim no part in bringing
about. She proved that the normal
woman would, if left to her own in
| clination, spurn luxury and choose
active interests that require her TO
think and to do.
A business session followed in which
! Miss Alice Birdsall read a very sat
I isfactory report of the finances of
! the club. Miss Harriet Oliver an

/ sale had proven a great success, net
ting the sum Of $48.50 to the club
| treasury.

Craig, appointed house committee to
assume charge of the club room and
furpiture. as follows: Miss Alice Bird
/ sail, chairman; Mrs. NJ. Tt. Phelps,
| Mrs. Alice Hine, Miss Bess White,
Miss Frances Goddard.

A very fine display has been Sc
cured from the University museum
| at Tucson which includes pottery,
! cloth, sandals, baskets and jewelry
from the prehistoric cave and cliff
| dwellings of the state. Many arti-
cles have been gathered in this To-

| some interesting articles collected in
the early days, while others among
who will make loans from their col
lections are Mrs. Dwight =. Heard,
Perry Williams o A. Turney and L.

mittee for two years, John Seargeant
and Lawrence Seargeant

years ago and Immediately upon her
arrival became an enthusiastic coll
lector, the majority OF her collec-
ton having been bartered from the
Indians, Perhaps the most interest
ing articles in the collection are spec
linen of cloth and feather work from
the cliff dwellings, near Flagstaff
and some Hopi paraphernalia used in
the snake dance and other ceremo-
malls,
