THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, JANUARY 13, 1914. Iff Society By MELLIFIOIA. Monday, January 12, 1914. M It. AND MRS. GEORGE A. JOSLYN, who have been taking an en joyable motor trip through the south, spent a fow weeks In Cuba Just before the holidays. They are accompanied by Mrs. Farns worth and Mr. and Mrs. George A. nidwell of Hollywood, Cal., and while In Cuba took some Interesting trips on tho Island and made con nMnmhln ntudv of lh orchids, many snccles of which grow wild In the tropics. ' Although Mr. and Mrs. Joslyn after tho tornado presented their won derful collection of rare orchids to the city, they continue their Interest m this flower and are decided connolseurs on this subject. The orchid, which Is tho most expensive, most difficult to raise and the most fashionable'' flower at present, has become quite a hobby with many people prominent In business and social circles. Especially In Boston and New York is tho raising of the dainty orchid n popular hobby, but It takes so much time and expense that it has not become so popular In tno west. In going from Now York to London I noticed that many of the promi nent society women of New York wore corsago bouquets of orchids a fresh one each day. Some of the blossoms were sent as parting gifts, but I im agine tho latter part of tho trip they got them from the llttlo florist shop on board the steamer.

The commltteo In cludes Miss -Jeanette McDonald, Residents of ten public school districts havo petitioned tho Board ot Education to have tho German language taught in these schools. Tho last petitions came ' from tho residents of Franklin and Web ster districts. Prof. Ferdinand Htcdlngcr of nockford, III., who was elected German' supervlslr here, will arrive February 4 and. the, ad.' vlsablllty of Installing these courses will be submitted to him. There havo also been many rcsuests for teaching other languages In tho pub lic schools. A new law passed by the last legislature provides that upon pre sentation of petitions rlgncd by a cer tain number of residents any European language shall bo taught. Oriental lan guages arc excluded. Whether this law applies literally to every school In the city Is u question the Board ot Education cannot answer. Tho matter was referred six months ago to tho board's attorney, Cart Herring, but ho has reached no decision. "I have been thinking about It," said Herring, "and havo almost decided to look up the law in the matter." It Is generally understood that the board Is seeking to evade the wholesale' requests and to gradually Install tho courses In the schools, and for this reason the, attorney has been given to understand that an early decision is not College Presidents to Inspect Campus at Lincoln Jan, 28 The commission consisting of some of the leading educators In the country who were Invited by tho Farmers' congress to Inspect the present campus ot tho Uni versity ot Nebraska and tho state fann slto wilt bo In Lincoln on January 23.
