way.

intentions, is an occasion for joy—
for making others happy and in re •
trospect to offer an opportune mo
ment for reciprocation. Thus, to re
mind friends that their attitude and
efforts displayed for the purpose of
makingithe old globe a happy and gay
abode, is not overlooked, hence a re-

minds, the young ladies of Bainbridge
who have hitherto honored the-L. P.
Club with their presence on the occa
sion of their happy festivities gave
on Christmas evening, at the home of
Miss Caroline Bajtlfe, a Christmas
party for the L. P. Club.
The members of the club received,
announcing this entertainment, a most
clever invitation, in acrostic style,
displaying L. P. Club, with each line
in the invitation rhyming with the
other ami perfectly metred*, making
an artictic effort in itself, as the poets
say
The home of the hostess was beau
tiful with its elaborate Christmas
decorations of holly, evergreen, bam
boo and mistletoe.
Featuring, was a Christmas tree
laden with presents for the club mem
bers, and each gift reflected a studied
effort on the part of the donors of the
individual characteristics of the va
rious recipients. Miss Caroline Bat
tle, of Tanlac fame, assumed the ben
evolent and dignified role of Santa
Claus, while the others rolled in glee*
because of the humorous comments
anent the gifts as the guests answer
ed the roll call. Witness the well
known Mr. Dukes, when, to his morti
fication and chagrin, he opened his
present and found therein a hoe, rake
and shovel—very appropriate imple
ments for him but since he fled the
room immediately thereafter, it has
been whispered somewhat that Ber
nard is bashful because of his trade.
But everyone present knew that he
was a planter and not n road worker
—that is, as long as he does not fail
to pay his read tax. And Mr. Toole,
because of his various attempts to
leave this vale of tears was presented
a frog. It didn’t take him long to
deduct that the frog was a “croak
er.” Then little Willie—a Kwilecki—
drew a chest of tools—he needed a
chest despite his chestiness—and the
working tools were intended to help
him pursue his bent of construction
work. It is doubtful if he is person
ally inclined to use them. Ralph, also
of the same family, drew a bank—he
will blow one some day—he is a num-
ismatician, as the poets say. Hinman,
of the popular Smith family, was
awarded a Ford (toy) with a wheel
off. Just like him, too! Ramsey, the
Crom, got a horn. Somehow the er
roneous impression is out that he
is tooting his achievements and the
horn is intended to aid him. May he
develop more musically! Bob Miller
received a baby rattler and pacifier.
We can’t figure that out. He certain
ly appears quiet when his boss is in
town so why pick on him ? “Alec,”
who drew that nickname from no tell
ing where and whose last name has
at least three pronunciations, and who
recently become famous for his ability
to shoot all around a bird and not
harm a feather, was handed a gun
May he practise up. Pow!
Mirth and. merriment, as the poets
say, prevailed during the entire ses
sion unless it was when the L. P.
Club’ quartet favored the gathering
with a few of their select renditions.
They were finally choked off.
Willie Kwilecki performed a stunt
that would cause the literary genuis-
es to marvel. In the course of the
evening, during one of his many
flights of fancy, he appeared as one
of Keith’s Hawaiians armed with
ukelele to shortly thereafter trans
form himself into a Shakespearian
! Romeo. While Misses Grace Kwilecki
and Caroline Battle Julietted, Wjllie
Romeoed and even old Shakes himself
would now like to rewrite his play,
the other poets say.
The club colors of cream and red
were tastily carried out during the
refreshment course, when tempting
charlotte russe in cream was served
with chcries or red in the shape of
a flower. In addition, choclates, di
vinity, fruit, cake and fudge were en
joyed by the guests.
Those invited to this unique and
enjoyable affair were Mcsdames Eu-
zera Rruton and Robert Miller; Miss
es Grace Halstead, Lois Jordan, Glad
ys Hooten, Catherine Morgan, Bessie
Darsey, Caroline Battle, Grace Kwi
lecki, Edna Huff, Louise Reid and
Julia Thornton. Messrs. Bernard
