SSSCSCSCOCSCSCs
visited our city. The home of Dr..
and Mrs. +. L. Wisdom will be made
the richer by this queen among
women.
The return of Misses Ella Kelly
and Roberta Lampkin is noted with
much pleasure, by their circle of
friends. For many weeks they have
visited the several points of inter
est in California. Memory's store
house is filed with many scenes
that will furnish food for hours
spent in retrOspection.
Messrs. o. II. McCorkle and ]. E.
Mason have returned from Mapitou
Springs and C ipple Creek, with
memories of the "bestest" time
that could have been enjoyed. They
left their middle man, Col. Lee
Estes, on pleasure bent. They speak
of Lee with peculiar wink of the
eye VIII 'ch may be weighty but your
''scribe" cannot tel.
Miss Emma K1eisley, who for
many months has been the charm
ing guest OF her aJlt, Mrs. Jas. NJ.
Talbot, left foc her home Friday
noon. This favOiite has greatly
endeared herself to the community,
and it is with many reg 'ets that we
have to say goodbye. The sighs
are accompanied with the hope
that some day we will have her for
a citizen in very ruth.
During the meeting of the
Teachers Association, the home of
Mr.. Hugh Cory, was graced by the
presence of that popular son OF
Lonoke county, known at home as
"OUr Joe," but by the state at
large, as Hon. Joe E. Robinson,
whose eloquence so captured the
recent Democratic State conven-
tion, as TO cause him to be selected
as Bryan and Sewall elector, while
yet under twenty-fOur, His speech
on Patriotism in the Public school
was happy effort, and one well
worthy OF the occasion. We trust
he will be heard during the pending
campaign in our city, as the marked
ability exhibited in his lecture,
made him many friends here.
Tuesday evening of the past week
will ever be surrounded by memo
res of keenest pleasure. Kirby
Beach in all of IFS iormer a.trac-
fractions never offered more allul-
ing charms than on this day. AS
the king of day was sinking to rest,
vehicle after vehicle passed en-
route to this pleasure resort. Life
on thp Ocaon uo,a ~ , ,,,o1,,I,Aol
form was enjoyed by more than two
hund ed batbe S, while the banks
were filed with lockers on. To
these and those OF more ventursome
natures did The ever welcome
stra of our inimitable band fall on
waiting ea,'s. The approach to the
lake will long lidger in the minds of
those present as sglmpse toto
'a'ty land. Arc lights sw aging
high over head, lighting up the bos-
ON OF the lake in soft shadows as
though jealous of the charms OF
the gay revelers. The evening was
a most p' onounced success. Many
thaoks are due 10 NJ, EitOy for his
kindness to the guests while hearty
congratulations are bestowed upon
our band boys, who had achieved a
great victory rs entertainers in this
their entertainment at Kirby
Beach.
The fact that ''Belle Maison," the
home of those successful entertain
ers, Col. and Mrs. Paul Jones, would
open its portals for the pleasure OF
its friends, always finds gathered
within this ideal home, happy
hearts, beating in anticipation OF
the pleasures that ever await them.
Wednesday evening, over the lovely
lawn, were assembled a la 'ge crowd
in compliment to the Episcopal
Choir boys, who were giving a
"fete, the proceedings OF which
would be expended in purchasing
music, The moon was at her
brightest, to be in keeping with the
bright eyes that met you at every
point Japanese lanterns hung
from the gigantic oak that graces
the lawn, giving to the surround
ings a misty enchanting appearance.
Music was furnished by Prof. Nc
Cams famous orchestra, and was
truly a fitting accompaniment to
the peals OF happy laughter ever
born on the evenings breeze. The
occasion proved most successful
