The Social Twenty.

One OF the most delightful occasions
OF the season was the reception given All
the Social Twenty Club at the home
Of Mrs. J. d. Batcheldor on Friday
afternoon last.
The home was very tastefully- de-
corated with Christmas bells, holly
wreaths, and festoons Of Christmas
colors.
The tables for forty-two, the club
game, were arranged in the reception
hall, parlor and dining. The score
cards were still suggestive Of the
Christmas spirit each bearing mes.
sage Of good will. They were pinned
with sprig of holly. Five tables at
forty-two were played. Mesdames
Winlock, Heard and Oglesby made
the highest score. and Mrs. Oglesby
drew the first prize, lovely Hardan-
ger centerpiece, the work of the &C
complished hostess. Mrs. Hall re-
ceived the quests prize, 8 pair of
hand embroidered silk hose, also the

New Hose Carts.

The local fire depart1s. ent has
just received its new hose carts and
from the looks Of things, they are
now we'll equipped for fse service.
One of these carts, which will be
stationed in the city marke5 building,
will carry thousand feet of hose.
The wheels are of the bail bearing
type. and are six feet in diameter.
This cart carries a fremaris axe, a
croWbar, two lanterns, Two play
pipes with shut-off nozzles and some
other equipment. The other two
carts are of the same design and
carry six hundred feet of hose each,
and also have axe, crowbar lanterns,
MOBILES, etc. One Of these will be
stationed at the head Of Main Street
and will protect the eastern portion
CT town, the other cart viii be sta
toned near the new school, building
and will take care of tho western
portion of town. The big cart sta
toned in the market building will
work in all parts of town and with
this arrangement we believe that
winfield will be as well protected
from fire losses as any town in the
South, considering that it is not a
paid department. and the apparatus
all hand drawn.
Chief Gibbs and his corps of fire
fighters are jubilant over the advent
of the carts.
