Prouty, newly elected publicity chairman. So long as your Ideals are real and lasting, you are not old; So long as your enthusiasms are vivid you are young; So long as the evergreen tree of love is in your heart, you are alive. "These words closed the program of the annual meeting of the Woman's society Wednesday, May 6.

Harshaw easily held the attention of all, and the various reports revealed a marvellous record of 'esprit du corps', vision, and unself- ish work. Think of sending away more than 500 newly made garments. besides money gifts in large amount! Consider the faithful luncheon com- mittees serving 1700 people! 'Tt is rumored that the lengths of spaghetti used would encircle the globe three times ' "Remember there are now 19 cir- cles,--two born this vear, and all are eager to make their neighborhood the pleasantest ever.
