residence Of Mrs. Bryant. corner of Thir-
Teenth and Park Place. II was in every
sense a veritable social affair. all the
guests being old-time acquaintances
whose congenial meeting was pleasant to
all. The evening was mainly spent in
whist playing, interspersed with music
vocal and instrumental, and Rotations
0Irs. Bryant very graciously favored the
party with three solos; Mrs. Hendrickson
with piano renditions, and Mrs. W J.
Wallace softened the gaiety OF the lighter
vein with touching and pathetic recita-
ton entitled My Boy" Many eyes glis-
tened and many voices quivered with the
suppressed emotion Of sympathetic feel
ing as Mrs. Wallace so graphically rem
dered the thrilling story. In every way
Mrs. Bryant sustained her well known
distinction of gracious and panstaking
hostess, ever thoughtful for the pleasure
Of her guests. Those present were Mr..
and Mrs. Ed. Selover James II. Selover,
Wells Miller and William J. Wallace;
Mesdames Hendrickson and Kruger, and
