In Society

Nothing gladdens The Woman's Voice so much as publishing news of women's progress in every field. And here we record, with all pride, a dazzling victory for Makassed College for Girls, which bested the boys' college and carried off the first and second Nassouli prizes from the students of the boys' college!!! And it carried off the prize for elocution in the competition held at the Patriarchal School among twelve of the schools of Lebanon. Well done!

Sincere congratulations to Miss Zahiyah Dughan and her assistants.

The Guides' Spring Party
. M.

Scarcely had the clock passed half past three on Friday afternoon, May 25, when we began to see the Girl Guides of the Muslim Scouts arriving in their charming uniforms at the Islamic Orphanage... And before long we saw that the street leading to that house was thronged with the crowd of people gathering at the gate; we had no doubt that something new was afoot in the world of parties...

I entered with those entering, full of hope that what I was going to see and witness would be new, absorbing, and delightful.
