Clubs.

Mrs. Ross Meyers is hostess to the Dorcas Club this Wednesday afternoon at the home of her mother, Mrs. Yeoman, it being the quarterly business session. The Study Club will hold its sessions at the home of Mrs. Claude Townsend until further announcements are made. Twenty-four members are enrolled and prospects of more. The new members this fall include Mr. and Mrs. Twynham, Dr. and Mrs. Shine, Mrs. Lloyd Cummons, Mrs. Guss Merritt, Miss Marie Roades, and Miss Greene. The Fortnightly Club was received last Wednesday by Hostesses E. H. Bull and 8. Q. Hand, at the home of the latter. The parlors were radiant with the club flower, carnations, and great clusters of asters. Mrs. M. A. Gray, the president, conducted an open parliament, the subjects being varied but of great interest to housewives and mothers. Two-course refreshments were served, the souvenir a white carnation. The next session is with Mrs. Crain as hostess, at Fountain Park, the program being announced as Olympic Day. Mrs. Wm. Geier was hostess to the Jolly Club last Friday afternoon. Fancy-work and small talk kept all busy. Refreshments were served by Miss Helen Geier, assisted by Miss Stoudt, who aided further in the pleasures of the day by giving several piano solos and a number of duets with Mrs. Turley and Miss Esther Geier. The next session is at the home of Mrs. Rainier. > The Sew and Sew Club holds its annual election in the library room Friday of this week. The art exhibit is well under way, in charge of a committee from the Federated Clubs.
