The Seeley's Bay Woman's In- stitute has been divided into three groups for the purpose of raising money to increase funds. Group three, which is under the supervis fon of Mrs. J. Stevenson, served a cafeteria tea on Saturday evening, Feb. 14th in the Oddfellow's Hall, which was gaily decorated for the occasion. Tea was served from 6.30 to 8.30 and the ladies were well pleased with the attendance. The Institute was very fortunate in se- curing the Seeley"s Bay orchestra which contributed most generously to the programme following the tea. Other numbers on the programme were given by Mise" E. Lloyd, who explained the significance of St. Valentine's Day, Miss A. McLauchlan who favored the gathering with a solo; and Mrs. R. Cook who led the community singing.

And Coles Phillips, antist, believes her face is equally perfect. He's nominated her as ome of 14 "perfect" beautfes for 1925. You've seen her ankles before. They're featured in advertisements, 1 he Editor Hears That the branches of the Wo- man's Institute throughout the coun- try who send reports to the editor of the Woman's Page frequently say that papers on 'Current BEveats' have been read at their meetings. This is excellent news, for no one can possibly consider themselves ed- wcated who is in ignorance of the even'ts which are taking place in the world to-day, no matter how much they know of dead languages or higher mathemetics. The news of current svenlts can only be received by the general public from the press. Some fortunate ones have the daily paper supplemented by the radio. And yet there are people who never seem to take any interest jn the af- fairs of the world, the affairs the news of which gathers little crowds around the bulletin boards of the newspapers in every town and city. It was with astonishment that it came to the knowledge of the writer that two girls, bright pretty girls too, living in Kingston for the time being, had never heard of the story of Floyd Collins, the outcome of which had kept the people of this continent on the qui vive for sevaniteen days. Neither they nor their friends read the papers. That a Toronto press note says: "Friday the 13th was too much for prospective brides to tackle. Instead of the average number of 13 mar- riages per day, on the 13th, no wed- ding bells sounded and not one ner- vous groom signed the register." And yet we remember a Kingston girl who was married on Friday the 18th during the war. Her husband, who was in the thigk of the fight, came home safely with a decoration and she has several lovely children. Thet Christ sald, '"The poor ye 'have allways with sou."
