New Era Club
Mrs. George Lowell was hostess
for the New Era club, Monday night,

call, and enjoyed the annual Christ
mas meeting. In answer to roll
call those present told what the
Christmas season meant to them in
dividually. and this part of the
program was most interesting. Mrs.
Stella Durbin gave a splendid read
ing, O. Henry's clever Christmas
story, THE Gift of the Magi,' and
upon request Mrs. Lowell gave two
beautiful piano numbers, Tango"
by Albinez, and Concert Waltz
by Mamma yucca. A Christmas ex
change followed, and during the
business session the club voted

Christmas happiness for welfare
children.
The club had a delightful sur
prise when Mrs. Lowell invited them
to the dining room, where assisted
by Mrs. F. w. Cochran and Mrs. Cora
Mercer, she served delicious refresh
ments. Christmas reds and green's
made the house most attractive, and
in the dining room, wonderful poin
settas, red carnations, tall green
candles, with red tulle bows adorn-
ing the crystal holders, formed dec
orations of unusual loveliness. A
delightful social hour was enjoyed.
for most of the year the members
of this club confine themselves to
study.
Adjourned to meet Jan. 5, with
Mrs. Geo. Scott for the annual bust
ness meeting.-XX.
