Fats, pro-tcids and carbohydrates learn those three words and what they mean. Fats, that is the easiest one to remember. They are of both animal and vegetable origin.

Matrons Entertained With Tatting and Talking A little tatting and a lot of talking were enjoyed by members of the Young Matrons' Social Club, when they met yesterday afternoon with Mrs. J. Burke F.arman at her home, The Cedars, on Datura street. Although the fancy work included some of the very newest stitches and designs, and the conversation was particularly entertaining, interest did not run so high that the matrons refused to stop and enjoy the delicious fruit salad, sandwiches, iced tea and devil's food cake served by the hostess.

Woman's Club Edits Issue Of Palm Beach Post Behold history in the making I This morning appears the Woman's Club edition of the Palm Beach Post the first edition of any newspaper ever issued by the Woman's Club of West Palm Beach. And if the plain, unvarnished truth were known, the members are considerably puffed up about it. article contained therein was written by a club woman, every inch of advertising solicited by one particular club woman Miss Kuby Edna Pierce, chairman of the publicity committee, and editor of the sheet. The columns are jammed with advertising, which insures the financial success of the venture, and every line of reading matter smacks of something interesting. In addition to the regular circulation of The Post, between four and five thousand copies of the edition will be mailed to all parts of the United States, particular attention being given to having it placed in communities where it may do the greatest good to West Palm Beach and the state of Florida.

The management of The Post tendered to the Woman's Club one issue of the paper without charge, the proceeds to go to the Woman's Club building fund.

DeCamara, president, stated that it had been called to her attention that, if the association were to meet down town instead of in the school house, as heretofore, the attendance would probably be greater, and upon motion it was decided that Jefferson hall, at a very reasonable rental, be used as meeting place. But the motion didn't come as easy as that sounds. Mrs. W. A.

Dutch, with great determination, said that she thought every member of the association, whether active or otherwise, be taxed cents to pay for the rental of the hall, and that that sum be collected from those who failed to attend the meetings the same as from those who attended regularly. She said that those who weren't willing to pay that little sixty cents additional yearly should be dropped from the rolls that they weren't just exactly of the calibre that the association needed. (You see, the ladies have so many things undertaken for the good of the school, that they really can't see their way clear to taken even a small amount from the treasury to pay for rental on a meeting place if some other arrangement could be made.) 'Mrs. Dutch's statement called for some little discussion pro and con, hut that little woman has a convincing way all her own, and so the motion was carried and the jitneys began to accumulated immediately upon the secretary's desk.
