She spoke this afternoon following the apnual luncheon of the Seventh District, Indiana Federation of Clubs, in the Indianapolis Athletic Club, “Women can’t hide behind the skirts of non-partisan political organizations,” she emphasized. “They must take an active part In partisan politics locally.” Mrs. Whitehurst decried the low number of women voting today. There are two million more Women. than men of voting age today,” she stated. “Women are better informed voters than men; they also want peace more than men.

Both sterling and plate exhibits will be included, ranging from tea services to complete services, In addition to the silver pieces, there will be exhibits of Orrefors glass, Belleek china, Lalique glass and Copenhagen thina. The exhibits will be arranged by Indianapolis Garden Club members on tables throughout Mayer's first, second and third floors. » : The “royal” china pieces were made by the Aynsley firm in England. The design was copied from the dinner service presented to the Princess when she was married. It is pure white circled with a gold band on which the bride's crest was incorporated. Thy service, given to Elizabeth by the people of the English Midlands, is the result of the best efforts of English china designers.

The company now has lent pieces from the pattern to be shown in selected stores in this country. : a: The Orrefors glass is made in Sweden.
