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.

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.” I SOLID OAK MANTELS $10.00 and Upwards Are You Going to Build or Remodel Your Home? If so you’ll need Mantels.

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. if
