PLAINS.

PLAINS, GA, Aug. ia SOclaI
event of a most enjoyable character
was the reception given Wednesday
evening, Aug. 5, by Misses Ethel and
Lula Carter in compliment to their
attractive guests, Misses Mamie and
Brownie Carter and Edna Martin, OF
Americas, and Clyde Crozier OF Cuth-
bert The home was prettily decor
ated in cut flowers and ferns, and
with the many guests intermingled
presented a charming scene. Inc
Misses Carter proved ideal hostesses
on this occasion. Little Misses Car
RE and Catherine Oliver, in dainty
white dresses, presided at the punch
bowl, which was placed on the YER
anda, and banked with flowers. Many
interesting games were INDUCED IN
until a late hour when a delicious ice
course was served.
That Magnolia Springs has lost
none of its attractiveness is attested
by the number of young people who
go out daily from Plains. Indeed 1t
has been made more attractive by
the many improvements this season.
Among the latest improvements is
the nice swimming pool and the new
bath houses.
Quite a number of young people
participated in a moonlight picnic
at Magnolia one evening this past
week, given in compliment to Misses
Carriers guests. Mesdames Carter,
Lawson and Bradley acted as chap
erones. A delicious lunch was spread
soon after the arrival of the party.
The evening was a delightful one,
and at a late hour the party dispers-
ed with the wish that many more
such occasions would be in store for
them
