Society and business as a rule don't
mix very well. But there are occa-
sions when it does, and last evening
was one of them. when seventy
employees of the Independent Tele-
phone company, all girls. were given
reception at the home of B. F.
Pankey, the manager. at 312 West
Eighth avenue.
The pleasant relationship which ex-
lists between the Independent Tele-
phone company and its employees was
emphasized last evening as the guests
in their best party dresses mingled
with their host and hostess. A deluge
of seventy-seven girls is no small mat
ter, not even for a girls seminary.
But the receiving hours, which were
stretched over from 8 o'clock until IL
rendered this fact less noticeabl
In the receiving line We're Mr.. and
Mrs B. F. Pankey, Mr.. and Mrs
Hemphili Mr. and Mrs. J. w. Robin
son, Mrs. c. W. Moore. Mrs. Sadie
Hungate, Miss Ethel Pankey, Miss
