A. la dies at the elegant home of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Sawyer. The house was profusely decorated with palms and cut Mowers. The reception cotnmittoe was composed of Mesdames II. II. Wilson, Allen Field, 0. W..Gring, Al, E. Har greaves and Miss Lizzie Irwin. Tho cool evening made it very pleasant for the hundred or more guests to remain indoors, where a most interesting pro gram was rendered. The two musicale features by Miss Susie Boyle and Miss Mabel Metcalf wero especially good. Miss Margaret McPhee's reading was charming. The nev secrotary, Miss Wild, who takes the vacancy caused by Miss Shir ley Smith's departure made an instruc tive address, which was greatly appre ciated, as it marked out the future line of work. (The address will be printed next week.) Mrs. A. J. Sawyer cempleted tho pro gram with some very appropriate and well chosen remarks on the evolution of the ideals of woman from the earliest stages of barbarism, when she wis simply tho servant, bought and sold, to the more enlightened and independent era of these latter days. She also said that history gives no more striking con trasts than in the aims, conditions and ambitions of the woman of the present day compared with the woman valued only for her industry of the past ages. She then went on to say that the fullest development and complotest equipment wero necessary for woman's best work. Mrs. Sawyer's little talk, including a very appropriate poem, will not soon be forgotten. After tho program the guests were invited into the dining room by Mrs. Latta, where dainty refreshments were served by Mrs. J. II.McMurtry, assisted by the Misses Blanche Hargreaves, Rose Foster, Ella Harper. Flora Belle Hart ley, Olive Latta; Mesdames Nissley and Reagan.
