CAMULoS CLUB HOLDS
INTERESTING MEETING

The last meeting of the Camulos
Club on October - was particu-
larly clever and interesting. The
Social committee entertained at
one O'Clock luncheon which was
both dainty and delicious. The
decorations were in chinese reds
and yellows and the menu clever
ly carried out the chinese motif.
Noodles fixed with Chinese
pheasant and chicken, chinese
cabbage salad and little cakes with
Nah .Jong characters frosted on
them, were some of the danties
served to the thirty two members
present.
After luncheon and the br inc's
meeting the real treat was given,
Miss Anderson OF NaShn
Heights, who was born and raised
in China, gave an informal lecture
on that interesting country. She
touched lightly on the ancient
history, religion and arts, but Civ
a. the main part Of her lecture the
more interesting details Of modern
Chinese customs, as She knew them
from her own observation Most
interesting were her descriptions
of the home life, social customs,
weddings and funerals etc, all Of
which seem queer and unusual to
the Occidental mind. Miss Ander
son also gave information upon
the standing of women in China
and their advancement in educa-
tioual and civic matters. After an
hour of questions and answers q
program of decided educational
value was brought t~a close.
