| A ripple in the juvenile social sea on
the north side terminated in a tidal
wave yesterday, when Miss Lynda Bu-
chanan entered into the celebration of q
birthday, and pleasure, in large and
wholesome quantities, adorned the
horizon. This suspicious day marked the
eighth milestone in the little ladys life.
BY 3 o'clock the last of the guests were
ushered in, and the grown-up folks abb
dicated, and the home was yielded uI
to the sweet will of the youthful con-
tingent. The sum total of childish bliss
was found in ice cream and cake, after
the slightly lesser joys of games and
play with laughter that sent the echoes
wildly flying. Clustered about the table,
in the prettiest of gowns and Sunday
manners, they presented a dainty
picture-golden heads, black heads,
brown heads, shining eyes and rosy
cheeks-for what in the world is lovelief
than a group Of happy children? Red
was the predominating color, the table
being tastefully trimmed with mountain
berries and ferns, and the birthday
cake, adorned with eight tiny red
candles, was a feature of the hour. Twi-
! light found the little ones still deeply
absorbed in play, and gracefully with
drawing they rendered the small hostess
thanks for a Just lovely time" Those
present, besides the little hostess, were
Winona Smith, Litta Jones, Lesley
Jones, Edna Thomas, Flavia Stubner,
Freda Shellenberg. Bernice Nathan anf
