the Delivers.
A three course lunch was served by the
arniable hostess, after which a fagot
party was INDUCED in until a late hour.
IL is safe to say that most of the ladies'
upon their return home, found their hus-
bands taking cold lunch from the pam
try shelves.
w. r C. ENTERTAINED.
Mrs McGuire's pleasant home on South
Water street was scene of great activ-
it yin more ways than one last Wednes-
day afternoon. The occasion was the
meeting Of W. r. C. sewing circle. The
adornment of the chandeliers with small
flags was a very pretty compliment to
the expected guests, and appreciated as
much.
rs usual. plenty OF work was done,
remarlls and good natured gossip indulg-
ed in the hum of conversation toop an
other tone when the refreshments APP
peared.
Mrs. Mcclure was ably assisted in Dis
pensing hospitality by her daughters.
Mrs. Peck and Miss Mcclure. Ice cream,
and cake two varieties each. were serv
ed In every dish of cream was stuck
a tiny reproduction Of the beautiful stars
and stripes. and each one was tied with
a bow of baby ribbons in the three

Mcclure laughingly said that the color
scheme would have been followed in the

Besides Mrs. Mcclure. there were pres
ent: Mesdames Brown, Buckley, Croker,
Hamilton, Hammond ard Murray.
The visitors were: Mrs. Beck of Okla
homa, Mrs Harris. Mrs. Wills, Mrs
Peck and Mrs Mcclure. It is probable
that those ladies wished themselves men,
-bers of the ''sharmed circle"
Mrs. Mcclure and her daughters prov
ed excellent entertainers and their guests
will not need the little flags as visible re-
minders of the pleasure the afternoon
had afforded them

was met at the altar by the groom and
his best man, Charles Carver. DR.. Bradt
then pronounced the double ring cere-

AS the two parties moved down the
aisle of the church they presented a very
pretty sight. The conventional black
suits of the gentlemen presented quite a
contrast to the richly colored gowns of
the ladies of the party. which were costly
and of the latest pattern. The church
decorations, while very simple, added
much beauty to the appearance of the
church. Chrysanthemums and ferns had
been built over the altar, under which
the ceremony was performed. While the
