The Wilmington morning star., 1947-05-11
BY GERTRUDE HOWELL

The beginning ST North Carolina
Sorosis came about in a very cas-
ual way. 1t happened that on one
Saturday morning in November,
1895, three women met in the old
Front street market. T were
Mrs. R. w. Hicks, Mrs. Philander
Pearsan and the writer of this
sketch. Mrs. Hicks, who is re-
garded as the mother of the club,
suggested that a Woman's club be
formed here to improve ourselves
and benefit others, and 1t was de-
cided to call a few friends toget-
her to talk the matter over.
So, very promptly, on Deem :
Der 4, sue ha meeting was held
in the home of Mrs. Hicks on
South Third street and a club
was formed without any very def
mite program but with much en-
thusiasm on the part of those pre-
sent. The original membership
list was as follows: Mrs. C. E..
Borden, Mrs. W. M. Cumming,
Mrs. H. Mel. Green, Miss Alice
Green, Miss Margaret L. Gibson,
Mrs. Andrew j. Howell, Jr., Mrs.
R. W. Hicks, Miss Margaret l.,
Kingsbury, Mrs. Phllander Pear :
sail, Miss Anna Savage, Mrs.
Walker Taylor, Mrs. Charles w.
Worth. Mrs. James S. Worth,
Mrs. Martin S. Willard, and Mrs.
D. c. Whitfield. There e two
honorary members, Mrs. Isaac,
Bates, London, England and Mrs.
Daniel Morerll, New York city. OF
this number eight are still living.
During that winter, l8~95-1896,
the women met in various homes,
having informal programs but
with ambitious ideas for the fu-
ture. They had heard of a pro-
gressive New York city club, call
ed Sorosis, and thought that they
might like to pattern their work
along similar lines. A letter was
written Sorosis, asking if the new
Wilmington club might copy their
name and their constitution so far
as it conformed to the needs here.
A very cordial reply was received
expressing m C h interest in the
plans and giving permissino to
use their name but with some
prefix to distinguish it from the
original Sorosis. So it was decided
TO name the new club The North
Carolina Sorosis," a very in
elusive name as We now realize,
but it could not be foreseen that
others would want to use the
same name. T e meaning of the
word ''Sorosis" is not always I'M
derstood. 1t means "a collective
fruit formed by the union of many
flowers Some of the portions of
the constitution of the original
Sorosis were also included in the
constitution of North Carolina
Sorosis.
During its first year the small
group OF women here branched
out into four departments, thus
setting a pattern which has been
followed throughout the. almos'

CYNTHIA JOHNSON

You music lovers certainly did
miss a treat this past weekend.
| wish you could have been with
me. A certain recording artist and
his band appeared in person at
one of the D. c. theaters. and
he really packed in h e crowd.
Many an afternoon I've spent lis
tening to his records which are
some of my most highly priced
possessions because they are in
such demand. And listening to him
and his orchestra has never failed
to bring forth actual shrieks OF
laughter. You see. this "artist" is
Spike Jones and his orchestra
bears the picturesque title of the
City Slickers. When the curtain
rose, l was greeted with a stage
full of more junk that a junkman
could collect in one lifetime. l
can't begin to tell you all the
items, but they ranged from tiny
tin cans to coWbells. washing
boards. wood blocks, huge pals,
a cash register and a seltze, bot
tie. Spike himself was clad in a
suit made of brilliant red wool
crossed with a wide line of royal
blue so that little red blocks out
lined in blue formed the pattern.
The members of his band wore
suits OF green corduroy, multi
plaid tweeds, and topped them off
with pirate hats - complete with
skull and cross-bones - battered
derhies. and old%-fashioned straw
hats.
One of the many attractions "a
the song 1.-The Sheik of Araby'
which was enacted during the
singing by the trumpet player. He
was dressed in towels from the
prominent Washington hotels. and
wore a turban of matching ma
terial. The harpist. who was the
only feminine member of the or
ganization. sat in a large wicker
rocker, smoking a black stogie.
and knitting a muffler which
reached from the knitting needles
in her hand into the off-stage
areas of the theater. Spike was
on hand to fire the gun that adds
so much to so many of his re-
cordings. Once the 'gaily colored
sombrero which the sax man
wore. and which, Incidentally. COW
cred him so completely that We
never saw above his shoulders,
sailed merrily out over the heads
Of the audience, but returned
quickly and perfectly to its owner.
When the curtain first rose, a
midget plodded across the stage
pulling a huge rope which trailed
out behind him 10 the wing from
which he came. All during the
show, this rope was seen moving
across the stage. and when the
finale finally arrived, the same
midget strutted proudly before all
on the other end of the rope!
I've never seen such confusion or
such a contamination of arti-
cles in my life-but I've never had
quite so much fun. either.
This past week has been dedl-
Gated to Mrs. Margaret Lester.
our Dean, who will not be at NV
after the end of this school year.
On Monday evening. which was
Mrs. Testers birthday, the student
body held a testimonial banquet
in her honor. Speeches were made
during the course of the evening
by members of the freshman
speech department. Mrs. Lester
was presented gifts from the
freshman and sophomore classes
by the presidents of those classes.

w the Women
BY RUTH MILLETT

A woman in Lincoln, Neb.,
called train information and ask
ed, do you have any trains leav-
ing between 9 and 10?" When ask
ed where she wanted to go, she
replied. "It doesn't matter. I'm
leaving my husband"
That story was good for a
chuckle when it hit the newsps-
pers. And yet the saddest thing
about many women who decide to
run out on their marriages is that
they don't know where they're 60
ing.
They run away from life 81
fast, they dent even take time to
look into the future. Anything will
do, just to get away from it all.
And so like, the woman who
didn't care what train she took
just SO that it took her away from
her marriage-many women get a
divorce first end then face the
future.
90. AIMLESS LIFE AHEAD -.
Maybe their lives, would have
been far better in. the long run. il
they had swallowed their pride
and tried harder to make a go OF
their marriages. But by the time
they reached that conclusion, it's
toe late. They have already made
their exit and slammed the door
shut behind them.
TIE country is full of divorces
leading almless, useless lives be-
cause they didn't stop to figure
out where they were going before
they decided to leave their hus.
bands. Like a runaway child, they
didn't think beyond the decision to
punish the person who had made
them unhappy.
