SOCIETY

MRS. MELVIN ZOSS, HOSTESS FOR MEETING The Xi Alpha Xi chapter of the Beta Sigma Phi met at the home of Mrs. Melvin Zoss for their business and cultural meeting. Mrs. Robert Blaney, president, presided and led in repeating the opening ritual. A concert music ticket will be given to the Decatur high school and one to the Decatur Catholic high school. The chapter is donating to the Community Fund and the mental health drive this year. Mrs. Frank Crist gave the cultural lesson, "The Polar Region." Some of the highlights of her talk were that the polar region, as large as Europe, has a long winter which starts in November. The sun appears above the horizon for no more than four or five hours a day at the beginning of November and two or three hours at the end of November. The winter darkness makes the northern lights, seen from November through January, far more conspicious than before the dark-* ness. December, a month of darkness, is not unpleasant to the Eskimos if they have enough to eat. The snow houses offer good shelter and in their warm and clumsy dress they do not suffer. Winter is a time of rest and’ re-, laxation and there is much visiting and gaiety. The climate is healthy due to the absence of smoke and dust and an abundance of sunshine in the summer. Mrs. Crist stated, “In this polar region you feel a sense of harmony and as you listen to nature’s sounds your mind experiences a touch of nearness to God." The meeting was closed by the group repeating the club ritual. Mrs. Zoss, assisted by Mrs. Alan Zoss, served a delicious luncheon from a decorated table in the dining room. One guest Mrs. Ed Vergcisen, was present at the meeting. The next meeting will be a Halloween party at the home of Mrs. William Affolder. She will be assisted by Mrs. Martin Weiland.
