ENTERTAINs FIFTY YOUNGSTERS
Greeley's Best Crop Gather for
Good Time

Little Edith Mary Clough, 4 years
old. was the diminutive hostess at
delightful children's party given
Tuesday afternoon at the home OF
her parents. MIR. and Mrs. j. L.
Clough. The occasion was her birth
day and so youngsters from one
month to six years of age assembled
for the great celebration. Their age
made it practicable for the mamas to
be invited too and in addition to
these guests, Mrs. Clough conceived
the ingenious idea of inviting SIX OF
her friends, who have no children, to
come and give the mothers their
ideas of how youngsters should be
managed.
The lawn was gay with booths
charmingly decorated and the guests
were furnished with tickets OF ad-
mission to all the attractions. These
were varied and included wide
range of delectable pursuits. There
were rides in the hammock. the eX-
press wagon. the handcart, the velo-
cipede, the comfort swing, the rope
swing. the merry-go-round, the
teeter-totter. the tricycle.; there were
games of ten pins OF basket ball of
foot ball to which the magic tickets
admitted their possessors. The
tickets were also good for confetti,
for ticker, and whistler, for a
chance to play with the rabbits and
the white rats and for all the nice
things that had been provided for re-
freshments.
On the tennis court a maypole had
been erected; from the circle that
crowned the summit of the role an
array of prettily dressed dolls had
been suspended. The little girls
unwound the maypole and each one
found at the end of her ribbon one
of the dolls which was hers hence
forth to have and to hold. The small
boys received Teddy Bears as their
favors.
The very tiniest guests received
tin horns and whistles, and the six
ladies received dolls. A photogra-
pher was present and took number
of pictures of the happy children
and their mothers.
