PAGE EIGHT SAX BERNARDINO DAILY SUN, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1938 CLUB NEWS; SOCIETY and STYLES and FASHIONS for MILADY cTV, rtR. civ, rV, c. cV, Edited by WINIFRED MARTIN rtR, rt. cU Rebefyahs Have Happy Holiday Lodge, Party Member of Magnolia Rebekah lodg, combined a Christmas party with the regular lodge Thursday evening making the occasion notable for its enjoyment As the members entered the lodge room a beautiful scene met their eyes. A large lighted Christmas tree was the outstanding feature, while baskets of Christmas shrubs, bunches of mistletoe and holly, ropes of red, holly wreaths, red and silver bells, and burning red candles formed a pleasant, cheerful background for the meeting.

During the course of the evening the Christmas spirit was cleverly brought out by the musicians, Stella Thurburn, who, whenever possible, Incorporated Christmas carols with the required music for the meeting. After ths business meeting a program arranged by the noble grand, Nina Shelly, and consisting of group singing of the Christmas carols, Christmas stories told by Bertha Harbauer and Flora Gowell, and a Christmas reading given by Bozena Mitchell was of much interest. Two out of stats visitors, one from Florida and one from Pennsylvania, were introduced and welcomed, and expressed their appreciation for the evening's entertainment. A quilt was also awarded to Clara G. Koehler, Riverside county hospital.

After the meeting closed, the vice grand, Edna Hartsell, distributed Christmas noisemakers, and the members lined up by twos and merrily marched upstairs to the banquet hall to the tune of "Jingle Bells." Here they found tables arranged in the form of a cross, a large, beautifully decorated Christmas tree sitting at the center of the cross. Strips of colored paper and piles of oranges and apples and bowls of nuts, made the tables gay. Small lighted candles In marshmal-low holders and lollypops covered with red and green paper and pieces of mistletoe served as favors. Flora Gowell asked the blessing, after which refreshments of sandwiches, relishes, cookies and coffee were served. The evening closed with group singing of "Auld Lang Syne." Much credit is due the presiding officers and Mr.

and Mrs. Keache who were responsible for the decorations and program. 0 Catholic Women Heap Rev. C. A.

McQuillan Rev. C. A. McQuillan, president of Loyola university, told members of the Catholic Woman's club, of Los Angeles, at their public affairs luncheon, that while education for citizenship is important to American institutions, education must also take in many other phases or It will prove inadequate. Father McQuillan was honor guest and speaker on "Loyola Day," at which time the club honored not only him, but a number of men and women who lend their support to the university.

"Education is more than training for citizenship," he said. "There are many modern theories of educationsome of which undoubtedly have been inherited from as far back as the Sixteenth century. "One theory is that education should be a present experience in future living which requires the ducator to be something of a seer or prophet who can tell what experiences the children of today will have when they meet life some years hence. "Another theory is that education 1b a conditioning process, that human nature is a tight bundle of nerves and psychic reactions responding automatically to external stimuli. This theory would give us no freedom of action, no initiation of thought without external stimuli.

"Others look on education as a panacea for all social and economic ills an inheritance from the old theory that if a child were educat-d, if he were shown what was right, he would automatically be good. "The fallacy of this idea is shown by the fact that although today we have more schools, with more people in them, than ever before, we also have more prisons with more people in them."

Business Women Give Aid to Young Girls Los Angeles Business and Professional Women's club has always maintained a "big sister" attitude toward some of the young girls who must earn their own livings, and often helps to support others, when they should still be enjoying a carefree life.
