Hawthorne Book Club.

To one who does not approve of the woman's club or believe in it's influence for good, as promoter of social pleasure and mental stim- ulus, last Wedensday afternoon would have been a revelation, when Mrs. J. Hervey Mann entertained the Hawthorne Book Club at her home on Lakeside.
 Mrs. Mann is most delightful hostess and was ably assisted on this occasion by Miss Mamie Mann, who added much to the afternoon S pleasure by several we'll rendered piano selections
 The program proved an exceed ingly interesting one, the papers all showing matured thought and careful preparation.
 Mrs D. A. Kendall read very interesting study of John of Barne- welt, written by Mrs. Horatio Riley.
 Mrs S. NJ. Taylor held the com pany in deep interest while she read an able and exhaustive paper on "The Reformation and It's Ef- feet on Holland.
 Robinson of LeNdon." by Oliver Wendell Holmes, was read by Mrs. R. C. Thompson. Mrs. Thompson prefaced her reading by very in struetive and scholarly talk on the life and character of John Robin son and it's bearing on the history l of the times.
 Following this thoroughly en- l ioyable program Mrs. Mann pre- sented each guest with a dainty lit tle package bearing card on which was written an appropriate 1 quotation which each one read aloud and which were very much enjoyed. The packages contained quaint Dutch caps which the l guests were requested to wear while several course lunch con

Silk Stocking Club Reception.

One could have stolen poems from the roses, music from the symposium of colors, and whispers of Christmas secrets from the wealth of holly and mistletoe Mon- day evening at the Langford home. Never before in the high social life of Pine Bluff has there been an event of wider social interest or a scene more magnificently planned than the reception and flower cotil- lion given the Silk Stocking club at the home of Mir. and Mrs. w. H. Langford New Years eve.
 The Silk Stocking club is compos- ed of fifteen young women and is one of the most exclusive organiza- tions of which the city boasts. It was organized three years ago for the avowed purpose of giving just the incest entertainments possible. The membership is limited and when ranks are broken by the re- moval to another city of one of it's members, the vacancy is filled by a fortunate mortal.
 The entertainment given Monday evening proved to be a perfect mar Vel of beauty and artistic grace in every detail. As a compliment to the club. and on account of the

 At the close of the performance they were driven to the Langford

 beauty and beautiful beyond descrip tion The parlor with it's furnish

In the sun parlor adjOin- ing, tall green wicker-baskets, hold ing the daintiest of ferns, were placed at intervals among tall state ly palms. The receiving party stood in these two rooms, and here the three hundred guests were given the heartiest of welcome.
 After II o'clock the young ladies and gentlemen were entertained with a flower cotillion, and the beauty of the whole can better be imagined than described. Guests and the members of the club were gowned in colonial dress. The quaint costumes so charmingly worn by the women of today, the powdered hair the music, the flowers and the bril- liancy of the lights made never-to- be-forgotten picture, and the scene seemed to have been transported from out the shadowy realms of years long dead for the benefit of new generation. The ball room was the most elaborately beautiful of all and as perfect in it's keeping as an artists dream of art Several hun dred electric lights twinkled be- tween the crimson berries of the holly cables at the base of the vaulted ceiling. The mirrors at either end of the hall were holly Wreathed, and the scene reflected was as a dream of fairy land. The favors were paper flowers of every variety and hue.
 Quite a pretty feature of the evening was the grand march led by MT. and Mrs. w. H. Langford. Arbors of greeneries, studded with white vases, were effectively used and added another picture of dain- ty beauty, In the dining room, where refreshments were served throughout the hours, the Christ mas decorations prevailed to the exclusion of all others.
