A Primary Soclable,

One of the most delightful social af-
fairs of the season took place at the
Fourteenth ward assembly rooms last
Thursday afternoon when the Stake
presidency of the Primary associations
of the Salt Lake Stake. rendered a
social in honor of the officers of the
local associations. 1t was the pioneer
event of the kind and was the cause OF
much pleasant anticipation among
those invited to attend; and certainly
the recipients Of the compliment had no
occasion for disappointment
The hall was most beautifully decor
ated with the flowers of the season,
crysanthemums of every variety were
blooming from handsome vases and
iardineries and were banked with such
charming taste upon tables, stands and
piano, that one readily recognized the
artistic touches of Miss Kate Wells and
Ella w. Hyde.
Nearly every association in the Stake
was represented by its corps of officers.
Blending with the carelined faces of
the veteran workers We're those OF
sturdy lads and budding lasses who
from faithful members had been pro-
NOTED to positions of trust as aids,
secretaries and treasurers.
President Camilla cobb and her
counselors. Lydia 4. Wells and NJ.

guests. and with the tact of true hos
tesses made all feel welcome and at
