| On Wednesday afternoon of this week
Mesdames John Mcdonnell and H. NJ
Kirk gave very enjoyable afternoon
at the residence of Mrs. H. M. Kirk,
some two miles from town An unusu-
ally good time was spent by the guests
about the grounds and beneath the
| pretty shade trees. Among other
things, the ladies were told by their
hostesses that in various unknown
places, and hooks and corners quite a
| number of china eggs and crab apples
had been hidden, and that the one who,
| In given time, should discover the
most, should be rewarded with three
dlshes OF Ice cream. All joined in the
hunt with will, and as fast as one
lady discovered another had an egg or
an apple she would inform several more
and then there would be an exciting
| chase for the ownership of the egg or
apple. Sometimes one lady would have
several eggs and apples, but in a few
moments she would have none. How
| ever, at the end of the afternoons fun
| it was found that Mrs. G. M. Chamblis
| had the largest number of apples and
Mrs. D. w Mackenzie quite few eggs,
SO the result was declared a tie. Each
| one guessed the time of day, for the ice
cream, and the victory was won by
Mrs. Chamblis. The house was very
tastefully decorated with asparagus
fern. sweet peas, astors and other flow
ers in honor Of the occasion. Delicious
| refreshments were served during the
afternoon and heartily enjoyed by the
guests. Among other enjoyable events
