IN THE SOCIAL REALM.
The Misses Spence Entertain.
On Friday eveningoflaat week
Miss Susie Spence, assisted by
Miss Lawson Spence, entertained
the young people of Camilla very
delightfully at their handsome
home on Scott street, in honor of
her charming guests, Misses
\V6stberry and Armor, who stood
in receiving line, carrying large
bouquets of roses and carna¬
tions.
The color scheme of white and
purple was very beautifully car¬
ried out and the flowers, white
roses, carnations, hyacinths, wis¬
teria and violets were a gift to the
hostess from Col. S. S. Bennett.
The feature of the evening was
a list of conundrums on that
sweet little flower, the violet, and
the ladies prize, a beautiful box
of stationary, was won by Miss
Hallie Spence, while the gentle¬
man’s prize, a handsome paii of
cuff buttons, was won by Mr; Ar
mand Baggs. The consolation
prize was awarded Mr. Byron
Baggs.
During the evening, cakes and
cream and chocolate bon bons
were served the guest?, while
the beautifully decorated recep¬
tion hall was given up to a large
bowl of orange and cherry punch
which was delightfully refresh¬
ing.

Masquerade Party.
On Tuesday evening the beau¬
tiful home of Dr. and Mrs. J. M.
Spence on Scott street was the
scene of one of the most delight¬
ful social gathet ings of the season
when Mrs, Spence entertained a
large number of young people at
a masquerade party compliment¬
ary to Misses Susie Spsnco, Flor
ine Westberry and Belle Armor.
As the masqueraders arrived
they were mot at the door by the
hostess and taken into the spa¬
cious parlors where they were
introduced as the characters they
represented and there left to find
their'mates. This done, they re¬
paired to the large reception hall
where there was much merriment
in trying to discover who the real
one was under the mask. After
all had found their partners the
command was given to unmask
and great was the surprise to
many who had not yet discovered
the real identity of their partners.
The characters and those rep¬
resenting them were ‘‘Jack and
Jill”—J. B. Lewis and Miss Kate
Cochran ; “King and Queen of
Hearts”—A. R. Baggs and Miss
Westberry; “The Judge and
Maud Mullet”—G. B. Baggs and
Foy Spence; “Josiah and Saaian
tha Allen”—Rob’t Fleming and
Miss Laura Emma McNair;
‘‘George and Martha Washing¬
ton”—Leon Perry and Miss Toy
Hilliard; “King Cole and Mother
Goose”—B, S. Branham and
Miss Hallie Spence; “Jo Sedly
and Becky Sharp”—Aubrey
Allen and Miss Claire Culpepper;
“Uncle Sam and Columbia”—
M. C. Bennett and Miss Lota
Spence; “The Dude and the
Widow”—George Bailey and
Miss Ethel Perry; “The Police¬
man and Carrie Nation”—Harry
Powell and Miss Emma Cochran ;
“Ching Lang Lu and Ching Hang
Lee”—Misses Lillian Kinard and
Nolle Bullard; “Juliet”—Miss
Emma Lou Adams; “Bo Peep” —
Mis3 Belle Armor; “Priscilla”—
Miss Pearl Power; “Cowboy” —
John Adams; “20th Century
Girl”—Miss Pauline Cochran ;
“Happy Hooligan”—Ed Cochran;
“The Sailor Girl”—Miss Amanda
Crosby: “Minnehaha”—Miss Su¬
sie Spence; Uncle Pike” -John
Wilson; “Red Riding Hood”—
Miss Nannie Flake Palmer.
Among others who deserve
special mention for the fitting up
of their costumes are “Uncle Sam
1 and Columbia,” “Jack and Jill
“The Policeman and Carrie Na
| tion,” “Uncle Pike” and “Cow¬
boy.”
j The everobliging “Policeman”
succeeded in keeping exceeding¬
ly iv good guuu order uruci although amiuuiriiins the “Cow
shooting irons. He very fre
quently had to wait upon “Mrs.
Nation” who seemed determined
to use that terrible hatchet upon
the mirrors, and poor “Happy”
was the recipient of many sound
clubbings the "bands of the
“cop” for being entirely too will¬
ing to “help youse.”
The feature of the evening was
the “Leap Year Proposals’’ in
which each young lady was given
two minutes to make love to
young man present. Miss Emma
Cochran received the largest
number of votes as being the
most adept in the art and receiv¬
ed the prize.
During the evening delicious
cakes, cream and punch were
served.
Quite a number were present
who did not attend en-masque.
Baker Court.
Judge W.’N. Spence and Mr.
E. M. Davis spent Monday and
Tuesday at Newton, where the
Spring Term of Baker Superior
Court was held. The session
was a real short one, only two
days being occupied in trying the
business that was ready for a
hearing.
This is a good showing for Ba¬
ker county, which is to be con¬
gratulated on the small amount
of litigation for trial before the
court.
