A number of pleasant diversions
were arranged. Four years of High
school, progressive conversation and
other features were enjoyed. Baskets
of mints were placed alternately and i
when time was called the contestants
changed partners and when left part
nerlesfe the unfortunates were requir¬
ed to do some stunt. Messrs. Jacii
Flowers and Robert Fowler were re¬
quested to sing a duet. Each sang a
song and each was different in tune
and tone and words. The effect was a
prodigious success for the merriment
of all.
Music, too, had its charms and the
occasion was a never-ending series of
delights.
Misses Louise Fowler and Julia Muse
served punch from a crystal bowl em¬
bedded in daisies.
Mrs. Elwyn Gary assisted in direct¬
ing the amusements.

good which they did most royally on
Friday afternoon with a lovely party
in the Baptist church annex.

tea and sandwiches was dispensed.

ly upon their sportsmanship and per¬
fect success as hostesses.
