FOSTER'S WEATHER BULLETIN
Washington April 1. (Copyrighted
1011 by W. T. Foster.) Last bulletin
gave forecasts of disturbance to cross
continent March 2!t to April 2 warm
wave March 2S to April 1 cool wave
March 31 to April 4. The principal
feature of this disturbance was pre-
dicted to be a great high temperature
wave followed by a great fall in tem-
perature and by a week of unusually
cold weather with rains in many
places in the states and Canada.
In the bulletin .for March 25 the
rainfall for Canada and the states for
the month of April was given. That
bulletin should be preserved for refer-
ence. This first disturbance of April
will as stated above cause rains In
many places" but not in those sections
for which dry weather was predicted
for April. The rains mentioned above
will therefore probably occur princi-
pally outside of the dry sections men-
tioned in the bulletin of March 25.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about April 2 cross l'aclflc slope
by close of .'Id freat central valleys
4th to 6th Eastern sections "th. Warm
wave will cross Pacific slope about
April 2 great central valleys 4th
Kastern sections tilh. Cool wave will
cross Pacific slope about April 5 great
central valleys 7th Kastern sections
!Uh.
The warm wave of this disturbance
will not bp very warm while the cool
waves preceding and following will go
to unusually low temperatures mak-
ing the week that will center on the
warm wave average very eool. Rains
may be expected front this disturbance
in the April rain sections described in
the bulletin of March 25.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about April 8 cross Pacific slope
by close of 9th great central valleys
10th to 12th Kastern sections 13th.
Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about April K great central valleys
10th. lantern sections 12th. Cool wave
will cross Pacific slope about April 11
great central valleys K'.th Kastern sec-
tions 15th.
"This will be one of the most impor-
tant disturbances of the season be-
cause It will Inaugurate a splendid
period of crop weather. Excessive
rains will to a large extent cease and
warm growing weather that will make
the farmer's pulse beat with greater
regularity will come in and bold good
for most of the month.
The cool wave preceding this storm
center will go near the frost line in
Northern swtions following which a
high temieraturo wave will cross the
continent. As that warm wave nears
Eastern sections the storm forces will
Increase and weather features become
more marked. The cool wave follow-
ing will be moderate.
Science Notes.
The United States weather bureau
aspires to long-rango forecasts. Glad
to note the progress. Not long ago
the professors of that Institution with
but one or two exceptions ridiculed
all efforts to forecast ihe weather more
than two days in advance.
The theory on which the administra-
tion of our United States weather bu-
reau directs its investigations is that
the force of the radiations from the
sun varies thereby causing our
weather changes. Jr. Abbott is the
author of that theory and for many
years carried on his Investigations at
the Smithsonian Institution and later
at Mount Weather which belongs to
the I nlted States weather bureau.
This work has already cost im-
mense sums of money. But who dare
criticise the effort. If Dr. 'Abbott could
discover the cause of our weather
changes and work out a system that
would forecast the general weather
changes a year In advance he would
immediately take place as the greatest
scientist" of the' prVgenthee and be
hailed as the world's greatest bene-
factor. I hope congress will give htm
ample funds and let his work go on.
But I see many reasons for differing
from his theories. The causes of our
weather changes have all been discov-
ered. They were found by analyzing
a hundred temperature and rainfall
records covering fifty to one hundred
.tears. How does Dr. Abbott hope to
formulate a system of forecasting with-
out using records Does he propose
to wait fifty years in order to compile
records of the sun's variations? How
can he get Into the sun so as to get
at the causes in the sun that bring on
the sun's variations?

IN SOCIAL CIRCLES
Woman's Club Held La t Meeting of
Club Year on Wednesday
When the club doors were opened
on Wednesday behold! Spring was
there In all her beauty and splendor
represented by aeventeen ladle. This
was the last meeting for the club year
1910-11 and the writer feels certain
that no year In the history of the club
has been more profitable or pleasant
than has this one under the vry able
leadership of Mrs. Kaysor. With the
beginning of October the club took up
the study of that ever famous comedy
Merry Wives of Windsor" with ques-
tions and outlines furnished by Miss
Friend; and when the holidays arrived
we found ourselves on very friendly
terms with that merry old Jack Fal-
staff Mistress Page and Mistress
Ford.
After that little comedy we took up
the study of King Henry V said to be
S hakes ea re's favorite hero. With the
22d of March our lessons were fin-
ished so Wednesday's meeting was
given over to final reports from the
different officers and tho election of
fifTw-nra for th eiisuinc term. The
name of Mrs. J. A. Myers was present-
ed for membership and she was unan-
imously elected.
The eleciton of officers resulted as
follows:
President Mrs. John Astin. '
Vice President Mrs. Webb Howell.
Recording Secretary Mrs. W. S.
Wilson. (
Treasurer Mrs. John Hines.
Corresponding Secretary Mrs. Lie-
bold. Critic Mrs. W. P. Bryan.
Parliamentarian Mrs. A. M. Wal-
drop.
Reporter Mrs. M. v. faims.
Mrs. Kaysor in her own gracious
manner spoke from out of her heart
and before presenting the gavel to the
newly elected president gave to the
ladies a recipe for enjoying life which
read as follows:
"If you can't make any headway
And each day seems like a dead day.
And the thorns begin to ister till
your nej-ves are shattered
racked
Stop a bit and quaffing
From the bottle labelled "Laughing"
Drink your fill then start over. Tis
a tonic for a fact.
"Are you grumpy? Are you jaded?
Do you feel all worn and jaded?
Every time some iresn wots uoui juu
claim?
ti.iuo vnn lost th thine called tact?
Trv a mm nf olltinv ehilfftne.
Sweetened up with merry laughing.
lis tne oest ining on ine marivei 101
a tonic for a fact."
tnir nt 1i1lnlrvi zM-mm nnil rake and
each lady took her departure feeling
1 lus worm inai we are uvuis
Is mighty hard to beat;
We get a thorn with every rose
But ain't the roses sweet?"
Miss Thomas Entertained Friends at
Delightful Musicale Wednesday
in ensemble and detail was
the musicale given on Wednesday aft-
ernoon by Miss Emily Thomas. As Is
always the case In this home and with
this gracious hostess the affair was
replete with charm and graceful hos-
pitality. The guests were given cor-1
dial greetings in the hall by the host
ess who was dressed in a handsome
pink messaline. Fragrant blossoms
and potted plants were usea wun ar-
tistic effect in the floral embellishment
of the reception suite.
The roses were exceptionally beau-
tiful and rcilected discrimination 'in
their harmonious arrangement. As the
guests arrived they were given seats
in the library where they were most
royally entertained by the classical
music and readings so beautifully ren-
dered. Those taking part are artists

they have been well trailed in their
art. The pleasures of the guests were
manifested by the interested attention
and the liberal applause that followed
each number. The refreshments were
quite delicious consisting of cream
served with angel food cake each
plate made dainty with a spray of
maiden-hair fern. The huatess was as-
sisted in her duties by her mother
and sisters Mesdames Sallie Thomas
Ililsman Wilson and Jim Thomas.
When the appointed time for de-
parting came it seemed as if hours
had been seconds and the guests were
warm in their praise of the afternoon's
pleasures.
The programs were tied with pretty
pink bows and were in the form of
little booklets on the outside cover of
which was inscribed these beautiful
lines from "Twelfth Night":
"That strain again
O it came o'er my ear like the sweet
sound
That breathes upon a bank of violets
stealing and giving odor."

contained the following numbers

Miss James Compliments Miss Raysor
with "Announcement Party"
One of the most delightful of recent
events and one of the surprises ef the
season was the beautiful announce-
ment party on Thursday afternoon
given by Miss Corinne James when
she announced the engagement of Miss
Lynn Raysor to Mr. Elmer Russell of
Matador the wedding to take place in
June. Quite a number of girls were
Invited to this hospitable home for an
afternoon with cards. Miss Corinne
received her assembled guests with ail
the cordiality and friendliness for
which she is noted. On entering no
one even suspected the secret which
was afterward told for the rooms were
just simply and sweetly decorated
with pretty spring blossoms with here
and there a handsome palm or fern
that added to the attractiveness of the
scene.
The progressive contest with cards
was a veritable battle. Each contest-
ant was so interested in playing that
all thought of outside thing3 was for-
gotten for the time and the mind was
on the playing of five hundred. That
Miss Corinne is an ideal hostess has
been demonstrated so often that the
mere mention of her name in connec-
tion with a social function is a guar-
antee of a complete success; and so
this was proven on this occasion for
after several games of cards the host
ess threw hack the sliding doors en
tering the dining room and there be-
fore the eyes of tho guests was a
beautiful picture that can never be
forgotten. Loving hands of true
friends had wrought wondrous beau-
ties in the way of decorations. The
color scheme was pink and white very
suggestive of an approaching mar
riage but still the secret had not been
told.
Dainty and charming were all deco-
rative details and ensemble. In the
center of the table under the fes-
tooned chandelier was a beautiful
bride doll dressed in wjiite and wear-
lng a veil. Around the edge of the
table were festoons of pink hearts
and placed on dainty lace doilies were
bonbon dishes filled with delicious
home-made confections. A cobweb
made of tiny pink ribbons was woven
in the doorway and attached to one
end of each ribbon was a pink silken

bag containing rice which caused
questions to follow rapidly. On un-
winding the web each girl found on
the opposite end of her ribbon a pink
candied heart containing some pretty
sentiment. Miss Corinne James found
on her heart the following verse
which disclosed the secret to all:
"A Mr. Elmer Russell
Has caused a dreadful bustle;
In a certain doctor's home
Something' has been doing
In the way of wooing
For Lynn in June he will come!"
As tho verse was finished the gins
showered their true good friend with
the rice contained in the bags. Amid
joyous laughter pleasant sallies and
ready repartee an hour q-uickly passed
that was truly delightful to every par-
ticipant. A buffet luncheon consisting
of chicken salad served In heart-
shaid ramekins heart-shaped sand-
wiches crackers pickles and iced tea
was passed.
The announcement of this approach-
iug marriage will cause a flood of con-
gratulations to pour upon the young
couple. Miss Raysor Is a girl of very
sweet personality' and rare accom-.
plislimetits and though her friends re-
joice with her in her happiness yet
they regret to give her up as she is
a favorite with all.

Miss Smith Hostess to Embroidery
Club at Weekly Meeting
The members of the Embroidery
Club have every reason to remember
the delightful afternoon spent on Tues-
day at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed
Hall when Mrs. Hall's niece. Miss
Helen Simth of Virginia who has
been spending the winter in Bryan
assumed the role of hostess. She has
by her lovable disposition and charm-
ing manner won many lasting and true
friends.
The elegant Hall home was charm-
ing with artistic decorations and the
atmosphere was sweet with the friend-
ly spirit of welcome and good cheer.
For two hours the guests were very
busy with their handiwork each mem-
ber striving to finish some dainty
article. Many ideas were exchanged
and some handsome work wa3 dis-
played. Prior to returning home the guests
were refreshed with an elegant ice
course served with angel food and
macaroons.
