a few spasmodic-not to say sporadic
festivities are all the records show of

ner or so. a lunch, a breakfast, a trio
of game parties, like number of mu-

gave jolly dance at Wards hall, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilbur Parker gave their
daughter Marian dance in the charm
ing Orchard avenue house.
The colonial tea given at Mrs Rem

more like a smart private reception
