THE WEEK IN SOCIETY.
The striking events of last week in
a social way we're the two pretty
parties given by Mrs. ]. P. Jones.
About twenty-five ladies were present
each. who with fancy work and ex-
cellent music provided by the hostess
aud her guests made very pleasant
afternoon. Mrs. Jones' son was also
source of much entertainment and
he seemed to feel that he was a host
as we'll. and was very sweet and cute
Carnations were the flowers used as
decorations and Mrs. Jones was assist
ed in serving very nice two course
tray supper. by Mrs. Sprecher and
Mrs. c. j. Kemming. Both ladies as
sisted on the two days. The parties
were notable for there social and in
formal feeling.
Mrs. Philbrook on Monday after
noon entertained .'neighborhood
tea. - Mrs. Philbrook's hospitality
and popularity makes her neighbor-
hood limits large one and the party
numbered about twenty-five. The red
and white high school decorations
were still in place and with profusion
of red and white roses presented a
most attractive room. A game which
produced much amusement was
played. Mrs. Charlie Kemming cap
turing first prize. picture. and Mrs.
Pfarr the second. Mrs. F. Pfarr and
Mrs. A,nsworth assisted Mrs. Phil

delightful attention by giving re-

warmly seconded their son s hospital
ity and nothing was left undone that
could make the evening long to be
remembered one.
Penelope in Mrs. Kelly's artistic.
comfortable and hospitable home was
Tuesdays program. Mrs. Kelly is a
most popular hostess in any kind of
home, but of course the new home
came in for large share of attention
and received many compliments upon
its good taste and comfort. Mrs
Kelly is such an excellent cook that
her suppers are the despair and envy
of less gifted house wives and there
i is no exception to the rule. Mrs.
Kelly was assisted in serving by Mrs.
Patterson and Mrs. Voss. The next
meeting will be held with Mrs. j. H.
Mahoney.
Prof. and Mrs. Fellows entertained
the teachers and the school board on
Saturday night. Perhaps it would be
nearer the truth TO say the teachers
entertained the Prof. and his wife
and the school board, for they certain
ly provided three ring circus.
Buffalo Bill show and high class
Vaudeville, all under one tent. The
west and north brick combined for 9
circus, the high school teachers gave
the Buffalo Bill show, and the teacher:
of the Central grades the Vaudeville.
No acts were omitted usual on such
varied bill of fare. and the children
who thinks of their teachers as ole
and staid would have opened theil
eyes in wonder at the monkey
shine" We understand the schoo
board laughed so long and so hare
that they came away ten years young

play always make good Prof
and Mrs. Fellows provided very mic,
refreshments which after the strenuou
evening were very much enjoyed.
