Domestic Economy Exhibit. Evergreen. About ten days before the afternoon of January twenty-sixth, several hundred invitations were sent out requesting at tendance upon an exhibition of the work of the classes in domestic art and domes tic science, in other words sewing and cooking. The invitations were confined to the women of Pullman, the men in at tendance on the school for farmers and the young women of the College. Nu merous young men of the College, how ever, strayed in, and from the number who presented credentials as "represent atives of the press" it is evident that the reception will be given wide publicity. They cannot be blamed for desiring to go because it certainly was an enjoyable place to be. The exhibit was of work done under Miss McDermott, who is proving herself a very capable and thorough instructor. The department is now only a year and a half old but the time has been amply long to prove its possibilities and to measure its effects. Young women from all parts of the commonwealth of Washington are being trained in the art of "home making," than which there can surely be no higher art, and the re turn to the state will be many times the cost of the training. The visitors of the afternoon were first introduced to the reception committee, Miss McDermott, Mrs. Bryan and Mrs. Van Doren. Then they were shown the work of the class in sewing by the young ladies of the class. The smaller garments were arranged upon tables, while the shirt-waist suits each young lady was re quired to make were displayed upon the "dummies." No matter that these had no heads —heads didn't count in a ques tion of pleats and tucks and piping. The note books were interesting to examine, containing all kinds of stitches and di rections how to make them, and oh! joy to the masculine heart —examples of all kinds of darning and mending. Next the guests were invited to reg ister, and afterwards were taken first to the kitchen, where they were given a chance to see one set of young ladies washing the dishes according to the lat est approved method, and another set preparing the refreshments for the guests. This only served to whet the appetites and made more agreeable the pleasing picture of a beautifully decorated table with two young ladies at each end pour ing chocolate and coffee. Other young ladies assisted in serving the guests from the table and in a very easy way the hundreds of visitors were taken care of. The exhibit was a great success and certainly reflects great credit upon the head of the department and upon the young ladies who have so well profited by the excellent instruction. A Prophecy Party. The largest and most delightful after noon party of the year was that given by Mrs. Flanders at her home last Saturday in honor of Miss Bay Wallis. Cards hav ing little verses on them were distributed to the guests who made suitable drawings of Miss Wallis at different times in her future life and also wrote a line or two of advice. These leaves were placed in a burnt leather cover and the book was presented to Miss Wallis. Miss Georgia Malotte received first prize while Miss Charlotte Malotte got the booby. Mrs. Harvey and Mrs. Kimball sang an original song which was indeed a suc cess. The time passed all too swiftly with music and songs. At a prettily decorated table Mrs. Flanders and Mrs. Kimmel served deli cious refreshments. The guest list was composed of Mes dames Matthews, Wallis, Allen, Harvey- Kimball, Egge, Small, Kimmel, Dysart, Lawrence, and the Misses Saxton, Me Dermott, D. Smith, Charlotte and Georgia Malotte, Baum, Baker, Miner, Elma and Maud Spaulding, Elma and Jo McCanu, Hays, and Saidee Wallis. The next two weeks of the Farmers' School will be devoted to the study of live stock. On the eighth and ninth of February the Inland Breeders' Associa tion, of which Prof. Elliott is president, will be in session here. Want Ballad on the "Trail". A prize of $100 is offered by I. N. Fleischner, chairman of the press and publicity committee of the Lewis and Clark Exposition for the best ballad written on the subject of Ithe "Trail". The subject may be treated either in its historical aspect, as relating to the old Lewis and Clark trail which the hardy explor ers followed on their trip to the Pacific, or the "Trail of 1905." The amusement street of the Western Wo»ld's Fair is called the "Trail," instead of the Midway or Pike which were the names applied to the gaiety boulevards of other expositions. The "Trail" is built on a bridge spanning Guild's Lake, a natural body of water forming the "grand basin" of the exposition. Many new features have been plann ed to grace this bridge this summer, and, on account of its location, much attention will be directed to aquatic attractions. The competition for the best bal lad on the "Trail" is open to all. Competent judges will be selected from the best known literateurs of the Pacific Northwest and the con test will close May 1. Invitations have been extended to all the well known writers of verse and many good poems are expected to be sub mitted. W. A. C. Alumni Organization.
