GRANGE to the scene. After we all had
enjoyed the game for some time our
hostess placed before US the most tempt

realized our pleasures were not at an

prizes. The first prize was drawn for
by Mrs. V. G. Cayett and Erhmie
Patty, Miss Patty being the successful
one. was given handsome silver
finger nail file. We all felt hop-ful
when our hostess told us every one now
had chance at the consolation prize.
Miss Emmie Cavett was the lucky one
and carried off a pretty silver shoe hool
as evidence of her good fortune. We
soon bid our hostess good bye and tool
