The tea given by the Women's Hospital Auxiliary In the Alexandra hotel, on Sunday afternoon, was nol j the succohs which it should huve ¦ been. The ladies of the auxiliary went to a great deal of trouble In' their arrangements. Tho lobby of the hotel was put into holiday dress, .Hid a good musical program was arranged, but many of those who should have attended failed to put In ;n appearance. That the ladies of the auxiliary are disappointed goen without saying. Neglect of affairs of this nature may create the Impression that further effort is nol worth while.
