party and dance for the members or; the Gaar family. A number of other events of importance socially were also given. Jt j Miss Florence Fox will leave the latter part of this week fojt Champaign, 111., where she has accepted a position as librarian in the University of Illinois. Miss Fox will assist in some special cataloging and will spend about six months at this work. She is a graduate of the Indiana State Library school. jB Hostesses have told many tales of the untidiness of their guests, and one would rather not be the subject of the unfavorable criticism. The greatest cause for complaint has been the disposition of soiled linen. Some very sleanly-looking women have laid it between the two matresses while awaiting the arrival of the laundress; others have utilized the drawers of a dresser, or corners of closets. All such questionable courses might be easily avoided if the visitor would take a hand towel, fold it double and baste the sides together. By turning over the fringed or hemmed end a casing would be formed for a drawstring of cord or ribbon, and when hung in a closet or wardrobe the improvised bag would prove an excellent receptacle for soiled pieces. r si Miss Mary Bescher, who has been spending a few days in this city, the guest of her aunt, Mrs. Frank Banks, returned to her home in St. Louis last evening. A number of social functions have been given in honor of Miss Bescher during her stay here. y & Mr. and Mrs. Claude Addleman entertained a number of their friends last evening. Social conversation and music were features of the evening. A luncheon was served. ST j Mrs. James M. Mcintosh gave an elegant reception, this afternoon, at her home, in North Illinois street, for Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall. Pink roses, carnations and sweet peas made the rooms fragrant. The flowers were placed in handsome vases and wall pockets. Spring flowers were used in the library and for the dining room there was a beautiful basket of red and white carnations and ferns, and around the room was a row of red tapers. A harpist played during the afternoon, Mrs. Mcintosh was assisted by her mother, Mrs. M. S. Pepper, and Mrs. Tracy B. Johnson, of Connersville, and Mrs. W. D. Frazer, of Warsaw, who are her house guests; Miss Landers, Mrs. Martin Rehfuss, Jr., and Mrs. J. C. Mendenhall in the parlors. presiding alternately at the table were Mrs. J. H. Claypool. Mrs. Herman Munk, Mrs. T. E. Griffith, and Mrs. Garland Stewart. Misses Mary and Jessie Mcintosh, daughters of the hostess, assisted in the hospitalities. Miss Dorothy Mcintosh, another daughter, with her friends, Miss "Elizabeth Hilleary and Ruby Bradford, served the punch. Among the guests were Mrs. H, P, Martin, of Attica, with Mrs. Frederick C. Gardner; Mrs. J. O. Sloan and Mrs. Campbell, of Kansas City, with Mrs. James W. Noel; Miss Wright of Grancf Rapids, Mich., with Mrs. John C. Dean, and Mrs. Timothy Harrison, of Springfield, with Miss Landers. Indianapolis News. fgt y Several informal social affairs will be given this week.

Pale eiieeks of lilies, white. Like stars on a dusky night, Unfold to friendly light, delicate charms. Purple of violets, sweet, mingle with leafy green. Patches of color, in gardens, run riot. Vines twine in graceful wreaths, Palms wave broad sheltering leaves, While over all there breathes a holy quiet. Caressing, faint breezes bring spice from the woodsy pine. Long, feathering droops of moss, heavy and gray. Hang from the branches high. Slowly they swing and sigh, Solft veils of mist they lie, through the calm day. "Valley of rest" it is peacefully languorous. Where sweet are the kioses from summer's warm mouth. Life's golden hours slip past. Into a shadowy past. Oh, that the dream might last dream of the south. Mrs Will Houghton showed several kodak views of points of interest described by Mrs. Dougan. The organization meets March twentieth with Mrs. George Dougan of East Main street. J J J An enjoyable Washington social was given last evening in Earlham college.

Joys that bring youth to you, proffered, at will. Sunshine drops gently, bright cur tains of cloth of gold. Clambering red roses, fling out their green arms.
