INFORMAL LUNCHEON FOR
 MRS. GRAY AND MRS. REDIN.

Mrs. Henry Bramlette Gray and Mrs. Viola Redin, who will leave in a short time for a European tour were tendered a farewell luncheon yesterday by Mrs. Harry Jones, which was the most charn- ing of compliments. Seated about the prettily appointed luncheon table were eight guests, the party including only the hostess, her guests Of honor and five other friends Mrs. Jones is always delightful hostess and her small parties are as charming as the more elaborate The place cards yesterday were prettily suggestive of the departure of the two who are planning to be away for an extended period. They represented au- tumn leaves and buried in the heart of each were tiny photographs of Mrs. Red in and Mrs. Gray.
 On the place cards was the following sentiment
 There is a word of grief the sounding
 token
 There is a word bejeweled with bright
 tears,
 The saddest word fond lips have ever
 spoken,
 A little word that breaks the chain of
 years;
 Its utterance must ever bring emotion, The memories it crystals cannot die, Iris known in every land on every ocean Iris called "Good-bye."

FOR FOUR LITTLE GIRLS.

MT R. A. Brown was the most at beautiful roof garden party yesterday aft ernoon for four little girls living at Ter race Court. They are Ella Lee Redin, Sarah McLester.

A YOUNG MATRON'S PLAN FOR BEAUTlFYlNG GARDENS.

That interest in "city beautiful is still active was proven a few days ago in a suggestion from young housekeeper whose pretty home is quite the envy or her neghbors She called over the tele- phone to say that she had a plan to of fer for help in the Identification move ment which she is herself following and feels sure may be used advantageously bv others. q have assisted in beautify- ing 12 gardens this spring besides my own" she said land it has caused me little trouble and no expense. Every one who has flower garden must separate the plants at some time during the year and rid themselves usually of some choice but superfiuous specimens. There Is no need to throw these things away when possibly a neighbor and certainly some one in town could add them to flower collection, My cannas spread so rapidly last year that I did not have sufficient space for them. Some I gave away and other roots were placed in large hole which the gardener dug for me until this spring. when they helped in beautifying the flower gardens of some people l do not even know. but found would like to have them. I had other plants that had no use for in arranging my spring garden, so I telephoned to the Mayor, who accepted them very gracefully, sent for them and planted them in some of the public parks. Now, if every one who has flowers would make a point of never throwing away a perfectly good plant without first offering 1t to friend or to the city for placing in public parks, this would be another step toward making Io;r ,ol,a a n, a icitv heautiful.
