ary business session and the minutes of previous meeting read and accepted. Current c-ventg were in charge of Mrs. P. J. Mann. -Mrs. Albert C. Ehret, who took charge of the study for. the afternoon, gave a most complete and comprehensive review on the subject of "The Early French Settlers." The first French explorers to start out were .Marquette. LaSallo and Jotiet. Later on laigo numbers came and settled along the shore of the Great Lakes and down to the interor of the Northwest. As early as 1534, Jacques CartlT was among the first to start settlements, and about this time LaSalle started out from France on another expedition, taking a very dear friend with him. who was Tonty. Tonty was to help the French settle In the Illinois territory and one of the first places was a fort where the site of Peoria, Illinois, now is located, and another at Starved Rock, Illinois. Mrs. E. J. Harrison told of the ways and habits of our early French residents. Their homes were at first made somewhat aftfr the manner of the Indian wigwams, with poles ar.d skins of animals, but later on were made of logs. These afterward became more pretentious. Agriculture and fur-trading-were the chief pursuits. They plowed with oxen, horses seldom being used. The early French settler lived a careless, free-and-easy life, and gavo little thought to the future and their religion was that of their native country Roman Catholic. Hunting and skating in the winter, fishing -nd picnic parties in the -summer were popular recreations. Dancing was at all times their favorite pastime. The only vehicles found in these settlements were two-wheeled carts without iron work of any kind. The French settlers lived with the Indians on terms of friendly intercourse, often joining with them In their barbaric feasts and wild dances, and many a dusky maiden became a white man's bride. The "History of the Indiana French Settlers" was given by Mrs. C. I Wolff. As early as 1676. the early French settlors had a fort near what is now- the city of Fort Wayne. Indiana. From that station the French fur hunters passed up and down the Wabash river and into .the Louisiana possessions of France, securing loads of furs. Vinennes wag a trading station several years before the commencement of the eighteenth century. One of the sites selected as a place most suitable for a depot of military stores and a general trading post between the French and Indians, was near the Wabash on the Wea prairie a few- miles below where the city of Lafayette now- "stands. The young French hunters adopted the Indian customs and the inter-marrying of the two races was the real reason for the very close alliance that existed between tho French and the Indians. Mrs. L. I Bomberger with Mrs. Lillian Mikesch as accompar 1st gave the entire musical rrogram and sang in her delightful manner a group of songs by James Whltcomb Riley, "Indiana Lullaby" and two of Mrs. Eva Marble Boundy's, of Valparaiso, Ind., poems set to music, "To One I Love" and "Because." During the social hour the hostess, assisted by Mesdames A. F. Knotts, A.S. Hfmt. Bernard Shearon and Miss Irene Finnegan, served delicious refreshments. Mrs. Win. M. Iove. Secretary.
