Ellaville, Ga, Feb 22-One of the
most unique, as we'll as original enter
tainments that has ever been given
here, was the Valentine party rendered
the Daughters of the Confederacy and
their friends by Mrs. ]. B. Williamson
and Miss Mary Williamson the 10th
inst. The color scheme of white and
red was most effectively carried out in
every detail. Red hearts We're used
profusely, and they made a most at
tractive decoration. The punch bowl,
presided over by Mrs. Robert Strange,
was surrounded by heart-shaped for
al design. At the conclusion of many
interesting contests, the guests were
invited into the dining room, where a
tempting salad course was served. The
table had for it's centerpiece Mexican
drawn-work lunch cloth, on which was
placed a plot of pear blossoms, in the
midst of which was a growing pot Of
red Azalea. Silver candelabra on the
highly polished buffet held red tapers
shaded with mantels embellished with
carts. Ferns and smilax were arrang-
ed 2rtistically over the house, their
bright green foliage forming a sharp
contrast to the other decorations. Mrs
