A garden of tulips, with blossom
ing Magnolia. Cherry. Almond and
Apple trees, oranges ripening on
their ow n trees, climbing rose bushes
tilled with while and pink blossoms,
a veritable garden of llowers in this
uorthland. was the setting in which
the Woman's club presented the
most attractive program at their
third open house for th'e season.
The back of the platform of the
hall at the Social Centre was plant
ed to a bed of blooming tulips with
numberless buds jus! ready to burst
into bloom, behind these as a back
ground. were the climbing rose bush
es. the shrubbery some of which was
breaking into bloom and a sifiall
cheery tree in full bloom, at the front
of tlie platform was another bed of
pink and white tulips many of them
in full bloom. On either si.le ol' the
hall were three trees, with half open
leaves and partly blossoming. One
could almost smell the fragrance of
the cherry and apple blossoms ami
the blooming lulip tree. \l the rear
was a fairy bower in which sat a lit
tle white robed fairy dispensing lit
tle boqitets to those who desired fav
ors. and many sought them.
When the guests had assembled.of
whom there were more than a hund
red the program was announced by
Mrs. Winterbergor. lite President of
the club.
The president spoke a few words
in appreciation of the exceptional
work done by Mrs. George Dedman,
as chairman of the decorative com
mittee in preparing the hall and de
signing the character of the decora
tion carried out for the evening.
Nothing just like it has ever been
presented in.Skagway and the guests
were of unanimous opinion that it
was a splendid success. Mrs. Win
terberger also enlarged upon the
fact that the men of Skugway have
wives the like of whom cannot be
found, travel as far as one may. Af
ter her life-like portrayal of these
qualities of Si::igwuy men's wives,
the men ill the audience were so over
come with the riches which they pos
sessed in teir homes, that when«iti
vited to respond not one of them
could find voice to give expression to
the fact that some measure of credit
should be given the wisdom of the
men of Skagwav for having made
such remarkable selections in their
helpmeets.
iii lieu or tiie secretary s report
for the year, Mr. Lynch gave the re
port ill rhyme this we are appending
for those member# who are away
from home.
No clash of arms—No roll of drum
No crowds lo shout■ "Reliotd! They
come!"
No flags afloat: no banners gay.
No roses strewn across our way.
Rut quietly, with modest tread.
The Woman's Cl.ib has forged
ahead;
Until today, you'll find its name,
Emblazoned in the Hall of Fame!
Kight months ago the club first met;
That famous night I'll ne'er forget.
We started with about a score.
But every week has added more.
Until we have (See how we strive*.
A membership of fiftv-flve.
And twice each mor.th. on Thursday
night.
It matters not if moonshine bright.
Or rain cloud bursts, or north wind
blows.
To club—each faithful member goes!
We study science, painting, art—
Both wit and humor have their part;
Affairs of state both great and small,
Are settled in this very hall.
No other evidence at haml,
My word alone for this must stand;
IJ tit other things this club has done
Speak for themselves; I'll mention
one.
I If you should chance to be some day
'Twist 7th and 6th on old Broadway,
It's plaiu as day—for one who looks.
To see n room—just tilled with
books.
I Arranged on shelves both bright and
! new,
! With titles all in plainest view,
i Librarians are there to see,
| That everyone may suited be;
| No matter how his taste may run—
. To pathos—history—love, or fun.
i Hut now, in justice, lot me tell
| One reason we have done so well:
j Tho" we insist our club is strong,
i Much outside talent helped along.
, Fur instance: In our club we find.
' Some show a legal turn of mind;
! A treat 'twould be. they all main
t tained.
| To hear some points of law explaiu
I ed.
And when you want the law laid
1 down.
| There's only one man in this town.
I Who knows it all—without re
• dress—
• His name is—No—I'll let you guess!
| Now. some prefer to study banks,
I So. to another man, our thanks
j For telling us just what to do,
j When we have saved a cent or two.
i A little bank news I must tell,
I <1 know that you will keep it well!)
So forcefully did this man speak,
i Deposits doubled in a week.
Soon after starting this club year,
I Klection day was drawing near,
• To the rescue came another man,
! (explaining, as he only can.
; The many things we wished to note;
i Perchance, someday, we have a vote.
Though earthly thiugs are not his
1 fort.
We must admit—he's some good I
sport.
Another treat still later came,
from one who dearly loves the name
Of Bonaparte—the brave, the great,
Undaunted he. tho' cruel his fate;
A glowing tribute, so sincere.
A privilege it was to hear.
Without good health we have not
much.
A doctor's thought, intjeed was
such—
'Twas at our meeting just last week,
That lie so feelingly did speak—
On sanitation in the home.
Where deadly germs delight to
roam;
And we must keep—lest all should
die—
This simple slogan: "Swat the fly!"
And when we come, in lighter vein,
And wish some guests to entertain,
With speech or song—with play or
jest.
Our friends are glad to give their
best.
From every point the compass shows.
They offer song, or rhyme, or prose;
There came one chap of dusky hue.
Who brought the Swanee River, too!
And that is why. two times before,
(And now tonight make one time
more)
Our club cau welcome each one here.
And bid them share this goodly
cheer.
Miss Nancy Lynch opened the for
mal program with a piano selection,

ANNOUNCEMENT
Thursday Night
Evangeline Rasmuson between the
acts of the play, were much appreci
ated. The chorus composed of a
number of the members of the club
gave three selections of spring
songs, all of which were thoroughly
enjoyed.
Mrs. E. H. Owen seated iu the
garden with Dorothy Clark as the
fairy child at her feet read a beau
tiful selection from "The Lady of the
Stained Class Window."' This was
accompanied by a violin obli^ato.
"Hearts and Flowers" play softly by
Mr. Selmer and wonderfully well in
to the springlike scene.
The short play entitled "The Ob
stinate Family" in which, Mrs. J.
Aden, Mrs. C. F. Curtis. Mrs. T. H.
Runnals, Mrs. Lee Gault, Mrs. H. D.
Clark and Miss Ooodger took parts;
convulsed the audience with laughter
and formed a fitting climax to the
excellent program. Each lady did
her part with credit to the play and
to the occasion. They were given
the full expression of the pleasure
of the audience In hearty applause
and personal expressions of appre
ciation.
As the guests entered, a flower was
given to each, these flowers were of
different hues and design, but at the
close of the program, the color and
design of the flowers had real mean
ing. Each sought his partners thru
the color and character of the flow
er worn. Small tables for six peo
ple were arranged all about the hall.
The refreshment committer under
the chairmanship of Mrs. Moffat h.Ml
carried out a color design and the
colors were green and yellow. The
cakes were frosted with jellow
frosting and the cups holding the
yellow ice were deojrated with
green. The luncheon, an exception
ally good one— consisted of delic
ious cakes, coffee, nwd3 by our Skag
way expert, sandwiches, the li!;c of
which one gets only once or twice in
a lifetime, and a delicately flavored,
very palatable ice.
The club members have o^ery rea
son to feel delighted with the con
duct and outcome of their efforls.
They have had a verv ouccossful year
they established a public library, and
have given a fine example of how
much pleasure may Ira afforded not
only the members but the whole
community by their labors.

The strain of overwork tells t>n
the weakened kidneys. The hurry
and worry of business men, the
heavy lifting and stooping of work
men, the women's household cares,
tend to wear, weaken and injure the
kidneys until they can no longer fil
ter the. poison from the blood and
the whole body suffers from the
waste that accumulates. Weakened
kidneys need quick assistance.
