A Delightful Evening.

a most delightful time was spent
Monday night at the residence OF
Mr.. and Mrs. F. A. Creager by
the young people of Brownsville,
the occasion being in celebration
of the birthday of Miss Gladys
Rentffro.
The evening passed in a most
ENJOYABLE way, various games being
the feature of the event. A prize
was offered and the score showed
that Miss Florence, Miss Goodrich
and Chas. Blalack had been equally
successful, necessitating a cut of
cards to determine the winner.
Chas. Blalack was more fortunate
than his fair opponents, and sue.
ceeded in securing the prize, a
burnt canvass sofa cushion.
The color scheme in the dining
room was very attractive, being
red and white. Red gelatine with
whipped cream and cake were
served from a table lighted by
candelabra, and the cloth strewn
with cut flowers and ferns.
The occasion was one of much
merriment, and at rather a late
hour the guests departed, thank
their hostess for a most enjoyable
evening and wishing for Miss
Gladys many happy returns of her
natal day.
The guests were as follows: Miss
Edith Stafford, Victoria; Misses
Mary Blalack, Hughie Florence,
Leta Hudson, Joie Harris; Edna
Smith, Elsie Neale, Addie Good
rich; Messrs. Chas. Blalack, Albert
Billingsly, David and Paul Ko-
