BRIDAL PARADE OF EGYPT PORTRAYED

About thirty children gathered in the children's room at the library, Saturday afternoon, Nov. 26, and listened with close interest to

the stories of Egypt which Miss Ruth Work told them. Miss Work

is tlie sister or trie nev. Mcijean Work, of the United Presbyterian church here and has been charge of a children's school in Egypt for 20 years. Stories of several Arabian children, who had come to their .school, were among those told. Pleasing her audience still more. Miss Work showed them some of the things she had brought from Egypt. There were gaily colored handkerchiefs which girls in Egypt wear in school, and ear rings, anklets ;:nd bracelets. Hoys wear red fezzes all day, in school and out, Miss Work told them. Sandals and veils and street costumes worn by Egyptian women were shown. One of the most unique displays portrayed by Miss Wrork was that of a wedding procession in Egypt, showing the bride on her camel, followed by her friends and neighbors who rode in huge, saddle bags at the sides of the camels. She imitated the "joy cry" which the women make during this parade.

It is unusual to have such a unique story teller as Miss Work and the hour was a most enjoyable one. "Snow" stories were to be told Saturday afternoon, Dec. 3, by Miss Maxine Murray. On the following Saturday, Mrs. Brandon Griffis will tell stories.

their school room and watch the work they do, during next week, which is Nation-wide Education Week, that is, it is a special week set aside to particularly call people's attention to the work that is being done in the schools.
