Mrs. Thomas Donohoe and little
daughter Ruth are preparing to leave
for the states on the next trip of the
Alameda. Ruth will stay with her
grandmother at Oroville, California,
for a short time while her mother is
in ’Frisco. About the first of June
Mr. Donohoe will leave Cordova for
California, where the family circle
will be completed by the addition of
his son, who is a student at Leland
Stanford University. The whole fam
ily will then enjoy a trip to that most
delightful “Paradise of the Pacific,”
the Hawaiian Islands.

Mrs. O’Brien sang a beautiful Italian
melody, and Mrs. Keating sang the
Scottish ballad, “I’m Wearin’ Awa’,
Jean,” Mrs. Hubbert served ice cream
with cake and coffee.
