The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1899-03-16


"Kind sir. You mistake, we maids are gay,
Al club and lunch we have our own way
We make right merry and we ponder and plan |
How after this Lent we'll lasso man"
The Tourist,
The most elaborate affair In club
and musical circles this season was
the open meeting, given last Sat
urday evening by the Tourist Club
at the Depot House. Mrs. o. 8.
White was the clubs most gracious
hostess, and the guest list included
the husbands of the Tourists and
some OF Mrs. Whites friends. Out
of town guests were Miss Elsie
Kinkaid of Lancaster, Mrs. Norris
OF Athens, who has been Mrs.
Whites house guest this winter,
and Mrs. Robert Bibb OF Beatrice,
Nebraska, who is visiting her moth
er, Mrs. Cresap. The spacious halls
OF the Depot House was draped
with the suggestive folds OF "Old
Glory" and arranged for the liter
ary and musical program. The
regular work Of the club was so
well planned, and rendered with
such ease and simplicity, that 1t
glowed and scintiilated like real
gem in its great setting of exqui-
site harmony-for the music was
like u breath OF grand opera, and
the whole evening was artistic as
the Lenton Musical which is so
popular in New York. 1t would
require q musical virtuoso to speak
justly and with taste OF the singing
of Mrs. Norris and Misses Kinkead
and Rauch, or the piano interpre-
tation OF Mrs. Wright and Miss
McManigal, for 1t was all art, OF
that Elusive and soul like nature
whose touch is felt in quickehing
pulse throb and cannot be caught
and analyzed.
A light collation. was served af-
ter the program, the numbers Of
which had been announced by Mrs.
BEEN, the clubs president.

House Warming.
The Rathbone Sisters managed,
Thursday evening an agreeable
surprise, in the nature of a house
warming for Mr.. and Mrs. Kirker,
who have recently moved into their
beautiful new home on the corner
of Hunter and Walnut streets. In
the merry party some of Mrs.
Kirker's friends and neighbors
were included with the lodge, and
their surprising occupancy of the
house was cleverly arranged by
Miss Sarah Engle. An elegant
lunch was served and the guests
thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality
of the surprised host and hostess

reception chair, and the neighbors
with three pictures for the dining
| room, parlor and parlor window.

unconventional plan Of entertain
ment managed by Mrs. White, who
