Entertained.

Miss Grace Thomas was "at home"
to a number Of her friends Thursday
evening in honor of her guest, Miss
Clara Ford, of Chattanooga, and the
following assembled at the Thomas
home to psrtake of their hospitality
and watch the old year out and the
new year in: Mr.. and Mrs q. Sher-
man, Mrs. F, o. Pearson, Mrs, W.
D. Dew, Miss Birdie Lewis, of Dam
ascus, Va, Misses Yerda Bennett and
Louise Hill and Messrs. Louis DeSab-
la, Hngh Jones and Byron Bennett.
A ''bean contest was a feature Of
the evening, each guest being given a
bag containing fifteen beans, and be-
ing required to forfeit one of the beans
to any person forcing them to say
"yes or mo" Many were the lu-
dicrous breaks made in attempting
to carry on conversation without these
important adverbs. At the end of the
contest beans were counted and prize
given to the one having the most, By
ron Bennett coming off victorious with
twenty-three.
While the bean contest was in pro-
gress nut guessing contest was
inaugurated. Eight questions to be
answered with the names of some nut
being written on sheets of paper and
space left for answers below. Five
minutes were given in which to ans
wer these questions, and at the end of
that time the papers were gathered up
and Louis DeSabla and Miss Verda
Bennett were found to have answered
the entire list of questions correctly,
and were gived prizes, Mrs Dew re-
ceiving the "booby'' or consolation
prize. After these contests the guests
were entertained with selections on
the graphophone.
About eleven o clock hot coffee and
waters were served, followed by fruits
and candies, and when these good
things were disposed of it was nearly
midnight Souvenirs of the occasion,
consisting of magnolia leaves, with
the dates, 1908 and "1909'' and in
scription, Turn over a new leaf, {"
written upon them, to which tied by
baby ribbon, was sheet of letter pa
per containing an appropriate senti-
ment, were presented to each guest.
After the hour of 10 had arrived and
the church bell and factory whistle
had announced the beginning of the
year 1909, and mutual wishes for a
Happy New Year had been exchanged,
the guests departed for their various
| homes.
The evening passed very quickly and
all had pleasant time. The Thomas
family always contrive to make their
guests have good time, as all who
have enjoyed their hospitality can ties
tify.
