PERKINS & SHELDON CO. 1120 O Street. 441& wpil One of the most useful institutions in this city is the Y.W.O.A. Under the present devoted and efficient secretary many of the young women of Lincoln who are earning their living have a pleasant home and a clean, cheerful place in which to eat their luncheon. Lunch is served 8 la carte, and as it is the object of the association to serve rather than to make money, any young woman is allowed to bring her own luncheon and eat it with the addition, it she desires, of a cup or tea or coffee or a bowl of soup. At noon the big, clean room is filled with girls eating and chattering and resting. Miss Kyle, the secretary, has made the lunch-room more than self-supporting, although the highest priced item on the menu does not exceed five cents. The food is very well cooked, the table linen is clean and the aspect of the lunch-room invites re freshment of body and spirit. There is a parlor where habituee re tire to do fancy work, or to sing and play on the piano. The management of the association is planning to put in a gymnasium. If this could be ac complished it would increase the num ber of visitors and double the usefulness of the institution to the present mem bers. There are a number of persons who constantly make vague plans for the betterment of the race, who deplore the ostracism of working women and de nounce our social system, but their helpfulness never gets further than the mouth. They are not members of this one institution which is of more ser vice to the young women workers of Lincoln than anything else I know of. They neither visit it nor pay so much as a dollar a year, which is the regular fee, toward its support. If a homeless girl is stranded here she is taken to the Y. W.C.A. rooms. Lost, despairing or discouraged women bv the hundreds have been helped and comforted and encouraged to be somebody by Miss Kyle of this association. The latter is prac tical, non sentimental and an extreme ly helpful woman, withal a woman of the world and of affaire whose advice and sympathy are worth receiving. The in stitution is non-sectarian and deserves the help of every patriotic citizen of Lincoln. At the home of Dr. and Mis. Mitch ell on Thursday evening, a few friends listened to a piano recital by Mr. But ler of Omaha. It was an evening of rare musical enjoyment for the few who were privileged to hear him. The op portunity was appreciated the more because it is for only a short time he remains in this part of the country. In a day or two he leaves for the Pacific coast. Mr. Butler is master of a fine technique. Hi'b velvet-steel fingers fall upon the keys bo that all the tone con cealed in the long twisted steel cords is rendered. No sound or sense of per cussion as the fingers strike the key board, but the sweetness, smoothness and meaning of his tones are the die- tinguishing marks of a virtuoso. Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell's home is the meet ing place for artiste, musicians and those who are appreciative without being themselves creative. A danciDg party was given by Kappa Alpha Theta on Monday evening at the home of MiBa Agnew. American beau ty roses were UBed in the reception hall and music room, with asparagus on tn staircase, chandeliers and in the t.r-- ' .. . , i places, xne dining room was decorated in the fraternity colors, yellow and black.

G. Cropsey of Fair bury have issued invitations to the wed ding of their daughter Cora, to Mr. MacLucas of the same place. The wed ding will occur at eight o'clock in the evening, on Octobar ninth. Miss Cropsey is an alumna of the University and a Kappa Kappa Gamma. She is a pretty, a popular and a very intelligent young lady, and her marriage to Mr. MacLucas, which has been anticipated for some time, will call ojt the best wishes of a large number of people.

A farewell reception was given on Tuesday afternoon by the ladies of Trinity M. E. church to Mrs. D. T. Cooke, wtio will remove with her hus band to Kansas City next week.
