Imperial Valley Society
Despite Storm, Missionary
Society Has Enjoyable Day

In spite of the storm of yesterday
the missionary society of State
Street church had most enjoyable
day at the suburban home of Mrs.
A. l.. Graves. Nearly 20 sat down
to the sumptuous pot luck dinner,
others failing toget there on ac
count of the high wind and rain
that came up just at the noon hour.
The afternoon program was par
ticularly interesting, being on the
subject of the Christian church ben
evidences carried on in the vari-
Gus departments. Mrs. j. S. DeVore
gave a most interesting talk on the
prison work, others spoke on the
Old Peoples Homes, the work for
aged ministers and the, orphanages.
Mrs. j. 8. Carmichael was program
leader.
The society has had n successful
year under the presidency of Mrs.
j. +. Hodge. The programs of the
year have all been exceptionally in
teresting and the membership has
more than held its own as to num-
bers, though there have been many
removals from the city.
At the next session there is to be
a debate on the question, "Resolv-
ed: That the negro has made more
advancement in christian educa
tion in the last 80 years than the
white man.

Dancing by Radio Is

CALIPATRIA, April l1.-Danc-
ing by radio music was the unique
diversion enjoyed by the American
Legion and Women's Auxiliary
members at the Legion club rooms
last night after the regular business
meeting of the two organizations.
K. NJ. Chapman, whose radio
equipment is known all over the
valley, installed his splendid instru
ment in the club rooms and after
listening to concert music for some
time the guests were treated to the
latest dance music by the famous
packard Six orchestra, of Los
Angeles.
Portland music came in at times,
but it was much too loud for pleas
ure. Mr.. Chapman is leaving the
radio outfit installed until after
Wednesday in order that the boy
scout directors and camping com
mittees may be entertained with Il

brate, with their children, the fiji

They were married in Illinois

1923, nothing intervening. The
event will be at the home of their
son with the entire family consist
ing of the two sons and their fami
lies and Miss Nellie Durham, their
only daughter, present. There are
three grandchildren, little tots,
who will have to be introduced to
their grandpapa, as he has not been
east since 1913. 1t will be a hap
py reunion, one not common in this
age of rapid changes. Compare

club Women Studying
World Wiae Relations

International Relations' has
nent subjects before the federated
clubs of the United States these
last years as it is before the general
reading public. Club women are
coming more and more to think on
broader lines, no longer willing to
confine their activities to the little
environment of the home town.
Mrs. Horace Mann Towner, ma
tional chairman of International
Relations, in the last issue of the
General Federation News, quotes at
length from an address on the sub
ject by Eiihu Root delivered before
the committee on national defense
of the National Civic Federation.
1t is an article which all club wo-
men might well study with open
minds.
The distinguished jurist says
that Americans know little of inter
national affairs but that they are
perfectly capable of learning it. 1t
is very much the same problem as
that of learning the fundamentals
of civil liberty, Or self government.
In the address, Mr.. Root pleads
for civility toward other nations
and for learning of the business of
associating with the people who
are only strange because we do not
know them or understand their
ways. They are in no sense of the
word our interiors, but simply diff
ferent, he says.
Mrs. Thomas Winter and other
club leaders are doing all that they
can 70 ge5 the federated clubs to
study such subjects and so be able
to help form public sentiment that
will be based on knowledge rather
than prejudice.
