| About forty women assembled there
| from a number of the towns in the
district bringing box luncheons which
were delightfully."- supplemented by
ice cream and fruit punch served by
the hostess.
At the short business meeting, Mrs
Brewster, the president presiding,
some bylaws were read to be added
to the constitution, drawing somewhat
stricter lines on the membership as
it is becoming so rapid in growth and
soon will automatically become un-
wieldy.
After the meeting the program was
given. Mrs. Hope read a charming
original story, Mrs. Hawse read
very humorous article from a maya
zine, appropriate to the occasion, then
all adjourned to the nearby beautiful
home of Mrs. Leonard who delighted
her audience with a number of vocal
selections in fine contralto voice, ac-
companied by. Mrs. Petrie.
Mrs. Leonard, this spring was
awarded the silver cup for music, at
the New Jersey State Federation con-
test
Another club member who has won
honor is Mrs. Hawse who has been
elected third vice-president of the
State Federation.
This was also the annual meeting
and all the officers were reelected
except the corresponding secretary
who resigned so the executive COM
mittee is: Mrs. Brewster, president;
Mrs. Leonard, vice-president; Mrs.
Sidmond, recording secretary; Mrs.
Benda, corresponding secretary; Mrs.
Lewis, treasurer; and Mrs. Clark,
auditor
Those who attended from this sec
tion were: Mrs. Sammis, Mrs. Benda,
Mrs. Pennell, Mrs. Heaton and Mrs.
George Clark, in Mrs. Clarks car, and
Mrs. Berkey, Mrs. White, Mrs. Dom.
aldson and Mrs. Koch in Mrs. Koch's

Wool Stockings.

Woolen stockings, agree style au-
thorities and doctors, have come TO
stay-at least SO long as We will

through the cold of winter And SO,
IL you are a sensible woman, as well
as a well dressed one. you are sure
to want some wool stockings to wear
with your sports clothes and walk
ing togs in sthe winter time
In buying wool stockings. one of
the most important things 10 rcmem-
Der is to get them large enough-a
half size larger than the feet, at
least. 1t is true that any stocking
will wear better if it is slightly
longer than the foot. but the fact is
particularly true as regards wool
stockings. because of their extraor-
binary shrinking proclivities.
This difficulty may be overcome by
care in laundering, as well as by all
lowing for shrinkage when you buy
Never use anything but soft water
in washing wool stockings. since soft
water requires less soap to make a
lather; and the less soap you use. the
better, since soap is likely to cause
felting-the direct cause of shrink
ing in wbolens. 1t will pay you to

Now, many women object to wool
stockings on the ground tha. they are
"scratchy." If you have discovered
this fault with them, you will prob
ably find a solution in the silk-and-
wool stockings. which are not only
more attractive, having less tendency
to "thicken" the ankles; but which
are softer and less harsh against the
| skin. Silk k-andwool stockings are
easier to launder. too, than are all
wool stockings. They should, how
ever. be washed only in lukewarm
water and pure soap. and should be
carefully pulled and patted into shape
as they dry
| The disadvantages of both wool and
| silk k-and-Wool stockings lie in the
| tendency to keep them on indoors

readily on dry skin. therefore. the
two great things to fight them with
are oil and astrineents.
If YOU have them, or If you are
afraid of them. the treatment is as
follows: For cleansing the face you
may use ordinary cleansing cream.
but you must use flesh building
cream around the eyes Use the four
fingers of each hand. begin the mas
sage stroke at the top of the nose,
go across tho eyebrows, around the
outer edge of each eye, finishing the
stroke at the bridge of the nose.
There should be a decided pressure
of the fingers against the skin, and
the stroke should he repeated about
30 times. Like all massage, this is
more effective If begun Immediately
after the face has been thoroughly
washed with hot water.
Massage of this sort works a lot
