INEflllMAl TEA AT
THE MUNllllE HllME

 

Mrs. Henry I'rowitt and Mrs. “'31-
ter S. Monro entertained about 1:35

friends from Norwalk. South Norwalk
and vicinity. including some guests
from New York City. at an informal
tea at the home of Mrs. Monro. North
Main street yesterday afternoon from
4 until 6 o'clock.

Mrs. Robert G. Wilson p0ured.
while Mrs. Charles L. Barker and Mrs.
Calvin L. Barton served punch.

Mrs. \Vilson was assisted by Miss
Lodice Weld. Mrs. VVilTiam Beers. jr.,
Mrs. beef Brand. Miss Martha Prowitt
and Miss Peggy Frost. who served.
Among the guests from New York
who were present were Mrs. Lansing
O‘Dcll. hir. and Mrs. Harold Baldwin
and Mr. and Mrs. Minor D. Randall.
A most enjoyable afternoon was
spent by those who attended.

You Must Wait a Century
for Another 2-22-22 Day

Because most. business people stay-
ed home yesterday they lost the op-

portunity of 100 years. Being Feb-
ruary 22. 1922. business “sherthand”
made it “2-22-22."

The last time it was possible to

write at least five of the same figures
for the date was on November 11.
1911. when lovers of the cabalistic
found it was ”ll-ll-li." The next
time a. five number combination will
appear will be in the twenty~first cen-
tury, on Jarfiiary 11. 2011. when the.
figures will be "1—11-11."

 

“Sunrise” Sessions Due”
to Social Pressure

 

PIAMMONTON. N. J., Feb. 23.—
The Hammonton Common Council
inaugurated “sunrise" sessions at 8
o'clock yesterday morning. breaking a
precedent of fifty years standing. This
was due to the inability of the young-
er members of the Council to get to
evening, sessions because of social and
other duties

Recently little business has been at-
tended to by the Council because there
never was a full attendance. The old-
er members were on hand. but the
younger men failed to appear. 'The
“W session nniny was decided

DUBLIN. Feb. 23 (Associated
Press).—General satisfaction seems to

 

be felt in Southern Ireland over yes-

teyday's decision of the Ard Fheis for
a. three months’ adjournment. al-
though some staunch supporters of
the treaty are disappointed and in~
clined to believe that the agreement
between the two Sinn Fein factions
was a Republican victory.

One question much discussed was
the probable fate of the treaty bill
now before the Imperial Parliament.
which. it is conceded. is shattered to
a. great extent by the Ard Fheis de—
cision.

The political correspondent of the
Freeman’s Journal writes:

“The fact that the leaders of both
parties were able to rise above their
differences and seek ground for
agreement may be taken. one hopes.
as a good augury for the future. he
Valera's attitude toward an appeal to
the peopte at this stage brought the
question of a general election to the
forefront as the main issue at the pri-
vate conference.

Griffith and Michael Collins were not
convinced by argument that this was
