Medio! of Cultsre Ctok
A weapon that cornee down as still
As snowflakes upon the sod;
And from Its force no doors nor looks
Can shield you—'tis the ballot bog.
Many members of the Culture
Club were out Tuesday afternoon
to a call meeting; perhaps to ate
if they could shield themselves
fpr an entire new corps of officers
were to be elected, and none were
seeking office. Prior to the elec
tion of officers some little busi
netts was given attention.
The visit of Miss Stoltefus was
discussed, the club endorsing
what she said with high hopes of
the town deriving benefit from
her visit. y
The course of study for next
year was discussed but nothing
definite decided upon.
Miss Simpson had charge of
the literary program, and as it
was nearing fc t. Patrick's Day,
called upon the members for
Irish jokes. The members re-
sponded and for all had a laugh.
In taking up the study of Yel-
lowstone Park the first thing to
consider was the early history.
Miss Parkhill told us of this while
speaking of the interesting life
cf John Colter, the first white
man to visit this section. Also
of the expedition of 1970. Yellow-
stone Park was created by an
act of congress March, 1872.
Much enjoyed was the talk of
Miss Cade upon the administra-
tion of park affairs and her de-
scription of a "camping trip-
through this region of hot springs
and geysers, mountains and can-
yons, lakes and waterfalls." Miss
Cade also spoke of the pleasure
and benefit derived from attend-
ing a recent meeting of the board
of directors of the State Federa-
tion in Fort Worth.
There is no doubt Mrs. Davis
made a hit with her story of
New Orleans, a subject left over
from a former lesson, Mrs. Davis
being at that time on a visit to
New Orleans. The people, their
customs, the old and new parts
of the city; the cemeteries, and
so much of interest was spoken
of, but especially touching was
the life of Sophie Wright and
Margaret Haughera. What they
have done for the poor and the
children every child in New Or
leans knows.
The following office s will serve
the club during the ensuing year:
President, Mrs. J. Earl Porter;
vice president, Miss Kathleen
Cade;' corresponding secretary,
Mrs. C. 8. Williams; recording
secretary, Mrs. Jessie Farrett;
treasurer, Mrs. S. G. Kagsdaie;
parliamentarian, Mrs. Bettie D.
Merrin; reporter, Miss Natalie
Simpson.

Millinery is costing more money this season, but you cannot delect it in our prices,

Millinery goods, but in everything carried in a Dry Goods stock. Everything with

tected against higher prices, except on a few goods,
for this season at least, as we anticipated our needs
and protected ourselves on most of our lines
