Music Club Reception.
The members of the Music Club
at Mt. Zion, Ga., gave a Colonial re
ception to their friends on the even
ing of Dec. 24th, from 7:30 to 10:00
o’clock, at the home of Dr. W. H.
Malone.
Dainty little invitations written
in Colonial style were sent out bid
ding some seventy guests. The
guests were first admitted to a room
beautifully decorated with mistletoe.
From there they were taken to the
reception room which was decorated
with holly, as was the library ad
joining it. Miss Ophie Morris, the
music teacher, headed the receiving
line, she was assisted by Misses Alice
Trimble, Bonnie Morris and Zala
Reeves. Some of the most interest
ing personages in the receiving line
were Mr. and Mrs. George Washing
ton, represented by Mr. Lee Trimble
and Miss Jennie Darden; Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas Jefferson, represented
by Mr. Carey Earnest and Miss Ola
Allbright. Mrs. Washington wore a
very becoming black dress made
with all the style of a Colonial gown,
Mr. Washington wore a beautiful
contrasting suit of old rose trimmed
in gilt braid, bright buttons and
lace. His vest was an heir-loom,
being cut in the low front style that
it might disclose the lace fichu worn
beneath; with his high heels, bright
buckles and snowy wig and cue, lie
made a typical Colonial gentleman
and his courtly manners would have
done honor to George Washington
himself. Mrs. Jefferson wore a
cream gown trimmed in real lace
and was worn by Mrs. Wier some
fifty years ago when a young lady.
This of course was the most inter
esting costume of the evening. Mr.
Jefferson was no less charming .than
the others. He wore a black suit
with white vest and lace fichu. He
was perfectly at home in his high
heels and this with his powdered
wig and cue and many courteous
attentions, for which the Colonial
gentlemen were noted, made him
very striking indeed. At the end
of the line each guest was handed a
beautiful little favor on which they
were to write the answers to a con
test. Certain objects representing
musical terms were placed in the
different rooms and numbered, these
were to be hunted and interpreted.
A very interesting program of music
and readings was then given by the
music class, after which the guests
were invited to the dining-room
which they found decorated most
artistically in the music club colors,
green and white. Here they were
served with a delicious course of
fruit punch and cake.
The evening was one greatly en
joyed by all and the behutiful pic
ture made by the fantastic costumes
of the gentlemen and the powdered
locks of the ladies will not soon be
forgotten.

Do not put a hnndful of salt <|

Be kind but firm with the
colts and tie them with strong
halters. Ground floor box stalls
are best for them. Give them
a run in the paddock every fine
day.

One Way Out.
An influential woman member of
a fashionable church in Philadel
phia had gone to her pastor with
the complaint that she was greatly
disturbed by one of her neighbors.
“Why,” said she, “that man in the
pew behind ours destroys all my de
votional feelings when he tries to
sing. Couldn’t you ask him to
change his pew?” The pastor re
flected. “Well,” said he at last, “I
naturally feel a little delicacy on
that score, especially as I 'should
have to give a reason. But I tell
you what I might do—I might ask
him to join the choir.”

A Terrible Threat.
An engineering operation uptown
made it necessary a few days ago
for one of the workmen to hold an
other on a rope halfway down a
deep well. A full would probably
have been fatal, and Patrick kept
the rope tight and steady while
Terence made the dangerous de
scent.
After a quarter of an hour Pat
rick’s attention wandered to some
thing else. Instinctively he kept
hold of the rope, but ho did not
hear Terence calling to him that it^
was time to pull him up until his
fellow worker raised his voice infan-
gry protest.
“Pull mo up,” called Terence.
