A Delightful Entertainment

The midsummer entertainment given by Mesdames Lincoln and Martin, at the home of the former, Friday, Aug. ?, was beyond ques- ton one of the most delightful social successes of the season. Al though the affair was chiefly in- tended as an entertainment of the members of the Dolly Club, the unstinted hospitality and populari- ty of the two charming hostesses served to draw together a large as sembly of Conway's fairest and most talented ladies. As the after noon was quite warm, the enter tainment was i'll the nature of a piazza party. The cool and spacious porch was fitted up with hammocks and rocking chairs, while bowl of delicious punch stood invitingly near. At a seasonable hour, the hostesses, as sisted by Mrs. D. l.. Young and Mrs. w. K. Sturgiss, served dainty refreshments, consisting of sherbet, cakes and coffee. The hour Of leaving came too soon for those who were so delightfully."- enter tained. As hostesses Mesdames Lincoln and Martin have no SUI perior, and few have the graceful tact of looking after the happiness of each of their guests as success fully as they.

The Invincibles took the lead early in the game and for an inning or two it looked as if Allinder was going to let the Buds down with no hits, no runs. While the Buds put up fair game, they were out played at every stage of the game, the final score being I7 to ? Tn favor of the Invincibles.

On Monday afternoon the Con- way team crossed bats with the Faulkner Gap team. Faulkner Gap went to the bat first and re- ceived goose-egg. Then Con- way came ill and rapped the ball out for r., runs. After that 1t was "all over" though the Faulkner Gap men administered several shut-outs to the Invincibles. The defeated team could not connect safely with Allinder's curves, and every run they made was OH rank errors by Conway. The feature of the game was the terrific slugging done by the Conway boys, two of them, Werner Ray and William Moose, lining out clean home runs. Final score: Conway, 24, Faulkner Gap, 7.

 Another home is darkened by the death angels sombre wings, a mothers little darling torn from her arms just as he had learned to speak her name; a fathers hopes all blighted for the little one who bore his name But God knows best and we know that he has some good to work out of all af- flictions, and He will not leave you comfortless.
 Many friends spoke their tender words of comfort to the saddened parents, but no one knows the deepest bangs of sympathy so well as she who keeps silent to keep back sobs.
 God recalled the gift he scut us
 Little eherub bright and fair
 sunny ray that came and perished
 In the gloom of grief and care,
 oft we seem to see our darling
 smiling Us from the door
 oft his childish laughter echoes
 From his playthings on the floor
 Little blue eyes closed in >lumlet
 Ne'er on earth to open more,
 Fondly we guard his treasures
 Broken playthings on the floor" AFRiEND IN SIMILAR BEREAVEMENT
