ENTERTAINED.
Mrs. Edgar Levy entertained the
members of her whist club Wednesday

home on Hancock avenue.
The rooms where the card tables
were placed were attractively deco-
ated with early spring flowers and
graceful ferns. Quantities of jonquils
and bright yellow' buttercups filled the
vases on mantels and cabinets, and
the lovely yellow motif of the deco
rations was carried out in the delic
ious refreshments which were served
after the game was over.
Mrs. I^evy received her guests
wearing a handsome costume of
black crepe de chine, and she was a
gracious hostess. All the club mem

Vague romors came to us that there
will be a termination of this adorable
spring atmosphere during the month
of February, and we will be willing to
desert the chilled outside and enjoy
our comfortable fires indoors. “Mebbe
we be, " and yet, i cannot conjure up
the sight of snow flying in all direc
tions. of the intense cold which might
mantle the great world over nisht, for
it has seemed to me that the spring
thaw was beginning and we were hav
ing the ebb-tide of winter.
1 have moved quietly about in our
beautiful little city the past few
weeks, taking long rambling walks,
at other times enjoying the drives in
and around town, as well as the sub
urban highways, and inevitably I
have uttered exclamations of surprise
at the irresistible appeal to me of
spring, spring eveiywherc.
Have you ever thought that the
great, wonderful sun is the best com-
j pany anyone could wish for? I hadn’t
aduil minute the day of my cru*«-
countiy tramp. Out Millcdge, about
I noon, the shadows of ihe lovely blue
gr a .ss lawn of Mr. and Mrs. Walter
Jones are very fascinating. The great
pines in the stretch of woods adjoin
ing send these long, nestling shadows
as if to caress and protect this green
and verdant little spot.
\ nopn over the lawns of other
vehicle a passage way onto the golf
grounds and cldb house. This stroll
recalled that other morning when I
enthusiastically and composedly
wended my way out to the Milledgc
Circle, there to await in grave dignity
and silent patience, the moment when
I should cast tire numbe., which was
to be my idea of the first amount
paid for a lot in this exclusive sec
tion. To one unpiacticed in the ex
pedients of such affairs, I found my
self a booster, for had I not guessed
the first lot would sell for $1,800 when
in reality and simple earnestness the
visiting manaier announced the sale
for 700. But he was confident of suc
cess and the natural consequence was
success.
I am watching and looking forward
to the growth of Miiledge Circle. The
splendid gift of a large tract of land
by Mr. Blanton Fortson in the near
\icinity, and some little back of Jwi;e
McWhorter’s home, opens great possi-

the seed of generosity planted by M
Ft rtson, will expand in hryadth of
beauty and home building out in this
suburban district before we really ex
pect it.
Approaching the University farm, I
drank in the beauties nf nature from
the Lumpkin street view—right at the
open vista on the other side of Prof,
homes showed many flower beds with 1 De Loach's recent residence. The sol-
their winter's coverlet of leaves or emn stillness was delightful and I
nine straw, and yet, upon close in- j thought of hrw the echoes from those
srertion. I was amazed to see the hills would tako us hack to childhood,
various hulhs of tho jonquil family IA precision of neatness marked the
s-nitimzinz the rays nf old Sol, by the a
slender gre-n leaflets already sent up ' J
from their soft, de*p bed nf earth, to
test the friendliness and warmth of
our early spring days.
j no .jced that dav sreat activity
around the Scott estate. New homes
to rival the most attrartive bunga
lows being rushed to completion by
the ingenuity of -he architect and the
artillery of hammer and saw by the
builder. \
Then a walk through the Miiledge
Circle and a peep through the under
brush at the farther end where an en
trancing boulevard will, in the near
future, allow the pedeatrian or the
plant'd in 2rain, vegetable pro
durtions and the like. Already th*'
long, straight rows were coming to
life with little sprouts of green here
and there, and they seemingly said
goodbye to this wilderness of winter
life out over the fields. If you've nev
er visited the grounds around Agri
cultural college, you have a treat in
■tore for you when the “Roses Bloom
Again.” Formal beds of hardy plants,
shrubs and great bowers of roses
mark the glory of the surroundings,
and yet in the spring tide I cannot
help but feel
“Now all is done that men can do”
And God •till reigns supreme.
