the state.

Mrs. Norwood Entertains Spinsters.
One of the swelleBt of the sea
son’s entertainments, was given
by Mrs. F. E. Norwood, at her
home on Maine street to the Spinsr
ter’s Club. This beautiful home
was made still lovelier with the
decorations of wild clematis, mis-
eletoe and holly, with numerous
battenburg centerpieces, scraps,
etc., all the work of the charming
hostess. The guests were ushered
into the parlor where the soft.red
glow from many lights added
beauty to the animated faces of
spinsters and guests.
It being the regular time of
meeting of club, they quickly at
tended to the business of the club
and adjourned.
Each one present took part in
a game of conuudrums.
We were given 10 minutes to
guess the 15 numbers on the me
nu cards. Miss Norwood collect
ed the cards and we were invited
to the dining room where most de
licious refreshments were served.
On each plate were the answers to
the numbers on the cards, and
very substantial answers they
were.
Each one had a ribbon run
from the chandelier q,nd tied to
kisses, around each of the kisses
wero appropirate verses. The arch
formed by these ribbons over the
centerpiece was tasty and beauti
ful.
The judges of whose card was
most carrect:
Mrs. Louis Frank Cater, Mrs.
Hugh Lawson, Mrs. J. Powers
Cooper and Mrs. Edgar K. Brasel-
ton then carefully examined the
cards and awarded the prize to N
Ray, whom when called out prov
ed to be Mrs. Braselton, The
prize was a handsome wedge wood
placque and was presented by
Mrs. Cater.
Both spinsters and guests voted
this the most delightful entertain
ment of the season —and we all
join in asking the fair hostess to
“Try it again.”
Misses Annie and Nell Norwood
were lovely in pale pink and blue
silk with touches of black velvet
and lace. Mrs. Frank Cater was
lovely in a gown of grey cloth and
velvet. Mrs. Cooper was handsome
in a gown of castor cloth with hat
to match, Mrs. Lawson was dress
ed becomingly in tan cloth and
velvet, Mrs. Jim Martin’s dress
was black silk trimmed handsome-
lv with cream applique and with
touches of panne velvet, Mrs.
Braselton was becomingly dressed
in black cloth, Miss Herndon of
Sandersville was beautiful in
black silk, Miss Martin was love
ly in blue silk.
All of the club members were
dressed handsomely, but a des
cription of each one, to do them
full justice, would take a whole
newspaper. A Guest.
