i Society Notes and Personals Impressive Memorial Service Is Held * at Y. W. C. A. Conference Four hundred and thirty-five dele gates are attending the summer con ference of the Young Women's Christian association, now in session at T.ake Geneva, Wis. Mrs. Carrie Ada Campbell, execu tive secretary of the local organiza tion, writes of an impressive memor ial service which was given at the conference last Friday in honor of President Harding. “The big outdoor auditorium, seat ing 1,000, was practically filled,” writes Mrs. Campbell. "The stage and back of the -choir were beauti fully decorated with oak branches and a large picture of our late presi dent was In front of the pulpit. Everyone went to the auditorium in silence to the tolling of a bell. At I. o’clock all bowed for two minutes in silent prayer. The choir, which was formed outside, began their pro cessional, the singing growing nearer and fearer. The choir, composed of Y. W. C. A. girls front several states, were dressed in white, their leaders carrying flags. When they reached the door of the auditorium everyone joined In the song. At the end of the procession marched the ministers and four girls carrying huge wreaths of flowers, which they laid very rever ently In front of President Harding's picture as they passed. “Following the benediction, a bugler out on one of the hills played "taps,” the notes echoing over the lake. It was all very beautiful, some thing none of us will ever forget.” Country Clubs Lakoma Club. Dining at Lakoma club Sunday evening were George Mickel, 12; A. J. Cole. 7; Sam Wurkheimer, 8; W. H.

Adele Garrison “My Husband’s Love” The Way Madge Solved the Problem dim’s Bundle Presented. Jim almost dropped the bundle un der his arm In his perturbation at Mother Graham's question. And I saw that the native cunning of the two Ticers scented something in his confusion. I saw all my plans for the concealment of Harry Under wood's aid to the escaping bootlegger sent scattering if I could not save the situation In some manner. "It i« a bundle I asked Jim tq get for me from the car," I said quickly, and as I spoke I maneuvered my self into a position where I could face my mother-in-law, and turn my bark for a second on the two Ticers. From that vantage point I gave her an elaborate wink, and a facial pantomime surcharged with mys tery. For a second she hesitated at the bait always so tempting to her. and then swalloyved it with gusto. "Oh, yes, I remember now!" she said. “I’m going bark upstairs. I’ll take it up to your room." I hesitated only a fraction of a second. I knew that she would open the p«rrel as soon as she was alone, but on the other hand, to show any solicitude for it would be to give shape to the Ticers’ awakened in terest in it. I could muzzle my mother-in-law, but I had no control over the tongues of the maseuline Ticers which deserv ? the familiar old-time characterization, "hung in the middle.” It was literally a choice of two evils, and I chose the lesser, al though I quaked Inwardly at the bad quarter of an hour which I knew was In store for me when my suspicious mother-in-law should dis cover to whom the overcoat in the bundle really belonged. She always has loathed Harry Underwood in in verse proportion to the genuine and admiring affection she holds for Lil lian. and in addition, she entertains for him what Lillian laughingly dubs the "mother-in law complex," which away,” Mother Graham said gracious regards with suspicion any personable man who evinces the slightest inter est in her son's wife. "Thank you so much," I said sweet ly, and I took the package from Jim and handed it to Mother Graham. Madge Reassures Jim. Jim's face was a study of alarmed bewilderment. 1 had instructed him to deliver the package to me with out its being seen by anyone else, and he evidently had met the Ticers before he had a chance to conceal it. I gave him a reassuring smile as 1 took the parcel from him, and managed to frame the words, "It's all right,” without being seen by anyone save Katherine. But for thaX I did not care. As long us Mother Graham must be told about Harry Underwood, I was glad to make a confidante of Kather ine also. 1 felt that I needed the sym pathetic common sense with which she would listen to my story. "I'll sent! Mrs. Ticer down right ly as she went out of the room, and 1 hastened to give Jim something to do. "If you'll show Mrs. Ticer and Jer ry where they can wash up for din ner, Jim," I said employing the homely phrase familiar to them, “they can eat in Just a few min utes now.” With a look of relief Jim obediently hustled the Ticers to Ills own quar ters and Katherine and I arranged places for the Ticer family at one end of the dining table. Mrs. Ticer, pleased but protesting, came into the room as we were dish ing up portions of the chicken with biscuits, and the other items of the dinner Katie had planned so buoyant ly, and when Katherine and I had carried out as best we could when Mother Graham had commandeered my little maid for the house-cleaning. "Kverything’s Quiet." "This doesn't seem right, ladies,” she said, smiling as we ushered her to her seat. "I’m not used to being waited on like this.” , "It's time you became used to It, then," I retorted smiling, for I have a genuine liking for my kindly neigh bor. "Don’t you think you've earned waiting on this afternoon?” “Well, we've flaxed around quite a bit.” she admitted. "And in spite of all our interruptions we have all the work finished which your mother in law laid out. So everything's quiet along the Potomac.” A whimsical smile played around her lips as she phrased the reference so often uttered by a former genera tion, and I guessed that the accom plishment of my energetic mother-in law’s directions had been no easy task. But the entrance of Bam and " — r . I It’s a gift The making of a good sal ad is an accomplishment —almost an art. But the ability to make a dressing for it, and make it good every time, is a gift.

"I'll attend to the clearing up and getting the table back Into shape for our dinner," Katherine whispered, as we were setting ready to nerve the dessert. "You'd better so upstairs and explain that mysterious bundle to Mother Graham before she bursts with curiosity."
