and especially 10 the young men OF
the state. and they have made a
fight for this thing.
You perhaps read In the paper the
other day that few women met In
Olympia and decided that they did
not want that homo at all this year.
Not being on tho inside. don't

companion Tuesday morning, some
time between eight and nine o'clock

and the flames covered her rapidly
They were soon smothercd, but she
was fatally burned and died some
three hours later at one o'clock.
Mrs. Getchell was born in Halo

New Church ORGANIZATION

Through the interest and persist
encc OF some of the girls of Saint
Matthew's church. q new organiZa-
ton has grown up to take its part
in the life of the church and parish.
On last Friday night. January 5th,
six young ladies. the Misses Dorothy
Kingsley, Helen Fuller, Margaret
Kingsley. Arlene Smith. Sarah Full
Ter and Elaine Radcliffe gathered at
the home of Mrs. Susan d. c. Scwall
for the purpose of organizing sew
ing club and missionary society. At
ter short talks by Mrs. Sewall and
the rector on the Junior Auxiliary
of the Woman's Auxiliary to the
Presiding Bishop and Council. the
girls realized the opportunities for
work and service that would be open
to them if they became a branch of
this larger organization and so de-
cided to do so. Saint Matthew's
church is very proud to have as one
of it's organization a branch of the
Junior Auxiliary which incorporates
every girl in the parish and has as
its officers the following girls: rresi-
dent, Margaret Kingsley: vice presi-
dent, Sarah Fuller: secretary, Flame
Radcliffe: treasurer, Helen Fuller.
The girls elected Mrs. Fuller as their
counsellor Two other aides of the
parish will help Mrs. Scwall in this
work and it is expected that the
girls will accomplish much. The
meetings are to be held weekly-on
Friday nights-and at each meeting
ono of the members of the Auxiliary
will read paper that she prepared
during the week on some part of the
work of tho church in Tho mi SSiOrnrv

chorus. The final number of the Mu-
steal part of the program consisted
in each group singing their own num-
Der, all at the same time. After quiet
had once more been resumed, slips
of paper were passed around and
each lady was supposed to enact the
stunt" given her. This occasioned
much merriment. The program was
shortened quite q bit on account of
the storm as the ladies thought best
to return home at an early hour but
all decided that the evening had been
a most enjoyable one. The hub will
