[Biddeford Journal, June 3d.]

Biddeford Journal, June Sd
The active members of the Unity club
of this city and Saco gave progressive
dinner party last evening in honor of
Miss Louise Leib of Saco, who has been
prominent member since the clubs Or
ganization, some three years ago, and
who is about to leave Saco for Chicago,
where she will fill responsible position
as teacher of physical culture in well
known school for girls.
The dinner of last evening started in
the Lotus Club house in this city, with
Miss Elsie Ham and Miss Ethel Deering
as the hostesses. The club flower is the
daisy and lent itself most kindly to the
beautiful decorations in the club rooms
Covers were laid for %, there being
present II ladies and II gentlemen. The
company was seated at two long tables,
the centerpieces of which were mounds
of daisies. The place cards were unique
and artistic, having decorations symbolic
of the event.
The company had all assembled when
Miss Leib arrived, and for time her
usual composure threatened to be faxed
by the unexpected array of faces, men,
bers of her own club, her invitation not
having indicated anything of the kind.
The first two courses were served here,
the guests being seated at the tables at
exactly $50 o'clock.
At the conclusion of the courses, the
entire company rose from their seats
with one accord, again causing Miss Leib
to at least look her surprise, but she
could only do as the Romans do. Wraps
being donned, the party started for Saco,
knowledge Of their destination being
withheld from the guest of honor A
circuitous route was taken, at least the
distance of mile and a half being COW
cred before they arrived at the residence
of DR.. Harold Emmons on Spring street,
his wife, Mrs. Edith Emmons,, being a
prominent member of the club.
The guests found the home beautifully
decorated with daisies and at the tables
the place cards were water color de-
signs done in daisies. Here the third
course was served, after which the
guests again arose, and with wraps in
hand started on another walking tour.
This time they called at the home of
Miss Grace T. Burbank on Cross street,
where they found daisy welcome no
less S gnificant than those that had gone
before. The table decora tons and place
cards were a feature of the dinner,
which consisted of the remaining two
courses, now five in all.
1t was 9. 80 o'clock when the company
arose from the table and went directly
to the Unitarian vestry, where they
danced until IL o'clock, concluding one
of the most delightful events in the his
tory of the club.
| The menu for the five course dinner,
served in progressive form, was as
follows:
| Grape Fruit Cocktail
Salmon Outlet Green Peas
! Hot Rolls
Roast Chicken Mashed Potatoes
! Squash Jelly
| Fruit Salad in Tomatoes
! Marshmellows Cake Crackers
| Miss Leib has been one of the most
popular members of the club and her
going away will mean great loss, as
she has been most active in her connec-
ton with it's literary and social life. The
dinner and party of last evening, in the
form of farewell, was thoroughly en-
Joyed to the last strain of music, and
will be happy memory for Miss Leib to
take with her into her new field of labor,
whittier she will carry the best wishes
of all who have had the pleasure of her
acquaintance during her stay of some
years in SacO.
