the members of SorOsis and the
Shakespeare club The rooms look
ed beautiful with a profusion of cut
flowers, palms and ferns. Two very
interesting guessing games furnished
amusement for a part of the after

the full attention of those present.

Miss Grinstead is a charming hostess
and every moment was filled with
pleasure for those who were favored
with her hospitality.

birthday, a number of his friends
planned a surprise for him. He went
to Humboldt on the afternoon train
expecting to return about five O'Clock
but missed his train and surprised
the surprisers by not showing him
self until about nine-thirty. He en-
tered at once into the spirit of the
occasion and aided in making hte
evening a pleasant one. There was
splendid music and games, and at
late hour Mrs. Bailey, assisted by
several ladies of the congregation,
served refreshments of the finest
kind A beautiful leather chair was
presented DR.. Bailey by his congre-
cation, as token of their esteem,
1t is needless here to comment upon
his appreciation, which was plainly
shown. The evening was one of the
weeks most enjoyable affairs.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Powell enter
tanned friends for seven tables OF
some 'erset last Monday evening for
Mrand Mrs. Simon Davies, who were
leaving for their Dakota home. Ten
closely contested games were played
before the refreshment hour arrived,
when Mrs. Powell served delicious
refreshments, assisted by her daugh-
ter, Miss Leila and Miss Maddox.
Music by Miss Graham and Mrs.
Davies was enjoyed. Most of the
guests remained until train time, as
Mr.. and Mrs. Davies were leaving on
the night train. 1t was lively party
each one seeming inclined to do
their part for the pleasure ana
amusement of others. Mr. and Mrs.
Davies will be greatly missed in Falls
City's social circle, for they are gen
orally popular and number their
friends by the score. We wish
them the same good feeling among
the new friends as they leave among
the friends in this city.

lightful kensington last Saturday af-
ternoon in honor of Miss Charlotte
