Mrs. Charles Dicliter was hostess

true of many homes. where the boy
is the center around which every-

the adoration of her brother to this
extent. and so the bachelor is doom-

Mrs. Corliss admitted that her lit-
erary career began without the
knowledge bf her husband. He was
afraid she would neglect to order
dinner some night if she became too
engrossed in her scribbling. So she
kept right on ordering dinners and
wearing her prettiest dresses and
strolling in her rose garden. and on-

"get toget or" supper for the we.
men of the city. in connection with
Ollie New Crusade.
There will be three more of these
suppers. to be held on the next three
Thursday nights. Those in charge
of the supper lust night were: Mrs,
George McKibbin from the South
Norwalk Methodist church. Mrs. W.
I“. Jenningslof the Ilowayion Meth-
odist church and Mrs. C. 1). Al-
brecht of the Rowayton Baptist
church.
The menu included: Spanish gou-
lash. baked sweet potatoes. heads of
lettuce and French dressing, rolls.
coffee. apple sauce and cake.
During. the supper the Melody
Boys rendered several selections.
Afterwards, Mrs. Oliver Clark and
Mrs. George Kay of Rowayton sang
a dust "Whispering Hope." it
Mrs. Loo Davis iniroduccd Mrs.
George Anderson who was the main
speaker of the evening.
Mrs. Anderson discussed the reli-
gion of the working girl. meaning
by "working." the business and the
professional girl.
She stated that every woman
should have a religion of some sort.
that it is just as necessary to life as
is eating and sleeping. and that this
religion should be a practical one
that would help the woman to lead
a useful. good life. a religion that
would be to her a help rather than
a burden.
She gave several instances of 1101‘
A girl used to be grown up at 18.
If she wasn't married by the time
she was 22 or '23. the family became
nervous. If she reached 25 and had
not made her maiden voyage toward
the altar. she autmnnticaily passed
into the "old maid" class. and that
was that.
And in those days. being the old
maid of the family didn‘t mean that
a girl had a. good 30b, her own pay
envelope. her own friends. and her
independence. . _
She stayed around the home and
waited on the young folks and ca~

of their lives.
After the supper. the women
went in a body to the Tabernacle.
Yesterday afternoon, more than
400 children attended the tabernacle
service lead by Mr. Grimes and Mrs.
Anderson and it might be said from
the expressions on the faces of the
boys and girls that the meeting was
a very interesting one.
Mr. Grimes announced that Mr.
Anderson is to take a country tour
and speak in the neighboring towns
around Norwulk.
The evening service last
proved to be one of the best
held in the Tabernacle for
reasons:
First, because the song service
was one of the host. coming to a
climax with lho singing of "Hold
the port for I am coming."
Secondly, because of ihc many
delegations present. including the
business and professional women
and a. delegation of more .than one

of Georgetown. The llaplist church
from Stamford was also represented
by a fair group. A number of other

I wouldn't advise all girls to wait
