The newest idea in this form of lighting is to hang the transparent curtains, of ninon, organdie, or some very fine net, on the outside of the pelmet; the heavy curtains being underneath thus carry the lighting which is seen through the haze of the light material by anyone in the room. Not only is this a great change from the ordinary curtain treatment.
Eleven years ago the business girls of many nationalities in Shanghai got together as a group for the first time. Since then they have met every year for dinner and a programme of singing, dances, stunts and speeches.
This year the annual "International Observance" will be on March 6 at the American Women's Club and will be in the form of a tea rather than the usual dinner. The date for this affair is always set by the Business [Girls Clubs of the Y.W.C.A. of America who have a simultaneous event all over the country and invite girls of other lands to join with them. Greetings from groups all around the world are sent back and forth every year.
The Shanghai Y.W.C.A. and Inter-motional Branch invites all business girls and women to come to the AWE. on Wednesday, March 6, at 5.15 p.m, and enjoy two hours of tea, fun, interest and a chance to make new friends.
Tickets of one dollar each must be bought by March 4 at the Y.W.C.A., the American Women's Club and the British Women's Association. The tea and social hour will be from 5.15 to 630 p.m. after which an interesting programme has been arranged by the Keys Club, the Live Y'ers Club and the Chinese Business Girls Club.
