was the reception to the members Of
the Mysterious Twenty-Five Club on
last Thursday morning when Misses
Annie and Edna Sitgreavcs entertained
the club with Il charming luncheon at
the home of their aunt, Mrs. w. H.
Martin, on West Main street. Hereto
fore the club has been entertained in
the evening and afternoon and morn
ing meeting was something novel but
all who were present declared it to have
been one of the most delightful meet
ings of this club. Everything was
| carried out in dainty color scheme Of
pink and white the dining room being
a vision of dainty beauty with its tall
vases of pink roses and feathery sprays
of clcmatis twining their way across
the tables The reception room was
also artistically decorated in handsome
roses and ferns. The form of enter
tainmcnt owed its attractivcness and
interest to the fact that the subject
matter was purely original. The morn
| ing being cool and every one in fine
spirits, a musical program was readily
welcomed, and each guest was provided
with pencil and card on which emu
steal Romance had been written with
blanks left for the principal points of
the story. These were to be guessed
| played. The story had been com
posed entirely of titles of popular
songs and pieces and in order formed
the charming little story below:
'JoScclyn" was her name, and she
was seated in deep "Meditaton, 1"
Where the sunset turns the Blue to
Gold, Dreaming of School Days. !"
Along came "Flatterer," as usual.
He began by calling her "Dearie, !"
which she resented. He next asked of
what she was thinking her reply being

day when Dreams come True" But he
answered. Somebody loves you Dear, {"
and 81 love only one Girl in this wide
wide World" and that's you, so "Lovc
me and the World is Mine" "An't
you glad you found me?" said she,
then gave him Loves Promise" He
assured her I'LL be with You when the
Roses Bloom again" but he came back
while the Leaves came Drifting
down., and their hearts were joined as
one .! IGii WhllG r., the band played merrily,
