Mrs. Charles S. Clark, head of the conference, was in charge of the day while Mrs. Edward E. Kretschmer, vice president of the conference served as program chairman.Interesting guests of honor were Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, who opened the meeting by singing “The Star Spangled Banner/* Others seated in places of honor were Carleton Smith, musical critic, ShepaM Vogelgsang, prominently connected with A Century of Progress, Lewis Bernals, the British consul general and Mrs. Bernays, and Mrs. Carter H. Harrison.After luncheon, Mrs. Rufus Dawes arrived and brought greetings from her popular husband who had beendetained.PROGRAM A FINE ONEThe entire program on Thursday was built around the ceremony when Wat T. Cluverius, rear admiral of the United States navy, received the order of the crown of Italy from Guiseppe Castruccio, the Italian counsul general in Chicago. . Both Mr* Cluverius and Guiseppe Castruccio gave interesting talks.The excellent program included dancing numbers by the Chicago Civic Opera ballet, numbering about 16 girls and one man soloist The appearance of Richard Crooks of the New York Metropolitan Opera company, added distinct color to the afternoon.PUNKT Brunner, black and white spotted fox terrier, is about as cute a little pooch as we’ve ever known, even though this statement may put Billy See's nose somewhat out of joint. Billy’s our favorite Hammond fox terrier but Punky is Ohio’s best.Now Punk is no ordinary dog. He does everything but talk and is as important in the family where he lives as any of the members.Punk is lots of company. He goes up stairs with you if you want to change your dress. He’ll sit at your feet with the old tennis ball which has been given him, and wait for you to finishreading a story, so you’ll play catch with him. He’ll sit up for minutes at a time, waiting for any crumb of candy which you might decide he’s worthy of.Punk loves to have his head and ears rubbed. If you start any of these loving gestures in his behalf you almost have to keep it up because Punk will paw your hand to have you continue and he’ll keep it up, until you do give in.There’s nothing he likes better than going places with his family. If they start downtown on foot, he follows, as long as he can get away with it. Then he’ll go in the car at the slightest invitation and get the clean windows all smeary.Last week, Punk pulled the worst trick of his seven years. He’s not in good favor yet. Because his mistress* Mrs. B. still has a red face, he’s being frowned on. The very sight of this pooch Punky sends the good lady's blood pressure up several notches.Last Sunday Mrs, B, was roasting the way we all were here in Hammond. It was a hectic day but the very day that she had to go to a funeral. It was so hot that Mrs. B, had trouble getting her house dress off and a suitable frock for mourning on. She donned her most conservative hat, slipped ihto some modest gloves and was off, to take her place in the row of arrievina: friends.Mrs. Searles Fetes Sisters With A Pretty TeaAn attractive tea was given on Thursday afternoon by Mrs. Bert B. Searles of West Waltham street to compliment her two sisters, Mrs. Lawrence Stanley of Columbus, O., who is here for a visit and Miss Eleanor Meyer, of this city, who was recently graduated from*, the Hammond High school.The guests arrived in two groups, one from three to four and the second from four to five.About thirty were included.When refreshments of a artistically arranged sort were served from the dining room, peonies and iris were used as a centerpiece. Mrs. James Sackman of Gary and Mrs. F. O. Case presided during the first tea hour. From four until five, Mrs. Wm. Lawson and Mrs.Wm. Guy poured.On Monday Mrs. Stanley leaves for her home in Ohio taking herniece, Miss Janet Searless back with her for a visit. Miss Eleanor Meyer will go to Columbus in the fall to enter the University of Ohio.Miss Eleanor Gostlin who has been attending Elmira college, New York, is arriving on Sunday morning from Elmira, to spend the summer with her mother, Mrs. Harvey Gostlin.Edward Conrath, who has been studying at Milford University, Ohio for the past year, plans to remain at school and continue with his studies through the summer months.John Conrath will finish the year at St. Louis University, St. Louis, Mo., on June 15, when he and a group of boys from the same school will leave for Wisconsin where they will spend the summer months.CHATTERThere are not many folk* in Hammond who reach that stage in their married lives, when a GOLDEN WEDDING anniversary is to be celebrated.But MR. AND MRS. FRED MOTT are among those lucky ones, we hear. This fifty-year mark is to be celebrated later this month. We’ll try to keep you posted on the $xact date so that you may be among thoSe who congratulate this popular couple.Miss Nola Kepple, who finished at the Indiana State Nurses College inHammond friends of CLARA EDMUNDS HEMINGWAY of Chicago, will be inerested to know that she is among that Flue Dust contributors who have made the DAVIS ANTHOLOGY OF NEWSPAPER VERSE.Mrs. Hemingway has had considerable success as a poetess, having had her work published in papers and magazines all over the country. She now has made her 37th newspaper column, having poems printed recently in the Tampa, Fla., Tribune, the Dallas, Texas, Journal, and Palm Beach Times.Among those poems published lately were Poems of Trees’* in Verse Craft, a tree anthology edited by Dr. Wightman Melton of Oglethorpe university in Georgia, and the Davis Anthology of Newspaper Verse, edited by Athie Sale Davis of Enid, Okla.These musical HUDSONS! They are always doing something worthwhile and carrying on their talent in a big way. Leila plays her way her© and there, and now pladys is tooting her way into the limelight.She is being heard for a time with the CHICAGO WOMEN’S SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, playing first oboe in a series of concerts at the Ford exhibit at* A Century of Progress.moves in to the Ford building to give concerts, the Chicago orchestra is to be heard playing twice a day there.If you’d like to stand up and shout for glee when the orchestradoes its stuff because you know Gladys, hurry in. It’s lots of fun to be able to look at these musical celebrities and whisper to you* next door neighbor: There she is. I know her.”Four local girls who wanted a little diversion on Wednesday afternoon, got in the car of one of the number and wheeled into the loop to see a matinee.They laughed a lot during the afternoon when they saw '‘All the Kings Horses,” but their laughing froze in their throat a little l^ter.You see thq girls went to the garage to get their car. I was safely tucked away on the fifth floor; very safely tucked away because the fuse necessary to running the elevator, had burned out early in the afternoon.The girls waited. They ate all the ice cream sodas they could stand; even convivial liquor refreshments grew tiresome. Then as the hours wore on they decided there was time for a movie.There was, and more time, too. One of the girls was aching to get honfe. She was going to have guests the next day and there were a million or more things to be done. Another one in the crowd had a little baby at home being kept by grandma. She was worrying about her. The third knew her husband would be pretty mad spending the whole dull evening alone. The fourth, who was visiting in Hammond from out of town, decided that a good share of her visit was being spent in’Chicago.But finally % after what seemed endless hours, the elevator wasmatinee exactly at 12:15. Just 15 long minutes on toward the nextday.You who have been longing to have some sort of a concession up at the FAIR, because you know you’d coin a pretty sum will weep to hear something of what the gondolas and other boats brought their owners last year.if the story we get is true, the men who had the lagoon concession are said to have had $120,000 to divide among themselves, after they’d paid for their equipment, paid for the concession and reconditioned their boats to use this year.Ho hum. Doesn't that make the pittance you get each week look like a drop in the bucket?We read that CLARA LAUGHLIN who has turned out so many travel books and recently has done her own story called “Traveling Through Life,” declares that collected figures ehow that the 60-cent dollar today buys more than the 100-cent dollar bought five years ago in many European countries.Doesn’t that make you want to take your ten cents and be off for some country where you could have a peck of fun?A local man who ha recentlyhad sugar poured in his gasoline tank by some narsty” strike-breakers was being consoled by his friends the other day who waxed facetious about the situation.When you go to sell this car, you can tell the fellow who wants to buy it that it has a sweet motor,” was one of the boy's helpful comments.Should we slan his sassv fare?
