This bazaar will be particularly outstanding, the board feels, as a result of side shows, light refreshments, elaborate decorations, and numerous novelty booths.

As a daughter, wife and mother of lawyers, Mrs. Sturgis has been steeped in legal atmosphere since childhood, and frequently is called Miss Joan B.
