were loaned for the occasion by Grove
Purk inn. Southern Coal company and

crowds of people seeking adventure In
the different countries shown, to
splendid advantage at five different
homes. America was seen first in the
basement of the church which was
beautifully decorated in the national
colors. Combined with great effect
with potted plants and flowers. Here
was found many historical things of
interest an Indian maid's part being

which was found In darkness and
very typical of such a country.
Through the efforts of Mrs. George

was perhaps the greatest success of
the evening, due partly to the unus

ed the part of an African mother
with her "babe" on her back, digging
In the earth while her husband an
African stood with his gun and made
her work. Miss Smathers and Mr.
Beam gave several vaudeville stunts
which were quite popular. In a room
covered with straw, Miss Florence
Grey and Miss Vernon WIHIam
served the favorite drink of the Af
ricans. The witch doctor who not only
played but looked his part, was Mr.
C'oston who gave charms to the
guests which were a source of dellgW
to all. A string negro- band added
much to the program In Africa. From
Africa the guests were hurried to Ire
land and Holland, both of which
were decorated In the national col
ors of their country, Holland was
made very picturesque by the use of
paper Dutch figures and a color
scheme of white and blue. The Dutch
maids In their rostumes added much
to the whole affair. To Mrs. Charlea
M. Ilrltt find committee Is dus the
success of Holland whl-h was, by the
courtesy of Mr. and Mfs. D. L. Jack

of beauty. Cherry blossoms and wis
teria and a great many Japanese cu
rios were displayed here. Tea was
served In the dining room which was
festooned with wisteria snd chrysan
themums. The Olesha girt who was
represented by Miss Virginia Dembll
gave' the Japanese dance, which was
an added feature to the whole. The
Japanese love song by Mrs. E. M.
Klein was much enjoyed. This com
mittee was headed by Mrs. Joseph
Metz In whose home It was given.
Lastly the guests were carried to the
"Land of Dreams," which was beau
tifully shown at the residence of
Mrs. Canle Brown on Montford ave
nue. A color scheme of white and
pink was effectively carried out with
orchids and roses and softly colored
lights. An attractive musical program
was carried out here by Miss Alberta
Lauer and Miss Sue Grlndstaff. A for
tune teller In the person of Mrs. Hes
ter was a popular feature . of the
evening. Delightful punch was served
throughout the sojourn In the land of
dreams. 'The committee Is much in
