A Pleasant Church Social

A delightful social hour of the week
was on Tuesday afternoon when
Mesdames e. B. LomaX, Ed Derden
and Whitaker entertained the ladies
of the Presbyterian church at the
home of the former. Notwithstanding
the u%nfavorable weather conditions, a
more charming entertainment could
hardly be imagined. Within the home
was warmth, light and beauty, each
guest being given a most cordial well
come by the hostesses. The parlor
was artistiaclly decorated, the Amer
lean Beauty and pink LaFrance roses
in vases being effectively arranged OIL
mantel and tables.
These church parties bring to-
gether a congenial gathering of la
dies that enjoy the time talking Of
their church work as well as convers-
ing on other subjects, and tend to
draw the members closer together.
At the close OF the party hours a
tempting salad course was served.

to Fort Worth, where 1t was featured
in the annual state convention this
week.
The flag of merit is offered by the
historian general and goes to the
state making the highest record OF
excellence in historical work during
the year. When one remembers that
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy is the largest body of women
banded together under one name III
the world, that nearly every state in
the Union now has a division, ard
there are chapters in Mexico, that
enrolled on its rosters are the names
of eighty thousand representative and
patriotic women, the winning Of this
flag is an honor indeed.
Announcement Party
At the home of Mr.. and Mrs. M. S.
Edge on Friday evening at $3.50
O'Clock a beautiful social courtesy was
extended to one of Bryan's charming
girls, Miss Ethel Conlee, daughter of
Sheriff and Mrs. John d. Conlee OF
this city, at which time announce
ment was made of her engagement
and approaching marriage on Christ
mas Day to Mr.. Ruben Edmonds, also
of this city.
The library, parlor and dining room
of the elegant home were artistic in
a floral adornment of white chrysan-
themums and ferns, in honor of the
hour, while the reception hall was
aglow with Christmas bells and
wreaths of real holly with its bright
red berries. The stairway and mantel
were banked with ferns and vines,
and the electrolier was shaded with
fluffy bows of red tulle and fern
leaves. Mr.. and Mrs. Edge met their
guests in this charming room, and
gave them a sincere and cordial well
! come.
A leap in the dark" %symbolizing
marriage, was made a jolly game for
the guests, by opening the door of a
darkened room in which the young
folks we're given the task of jumping
over a bowl of water-"in the dark"
After a musical program in the par
lor, the dining room was thrown open
to the guests. The brides cake, in a
bridal wreath of white rosebuds and
ferns, was placed on an exquisite lace
piece in. the center of the table, and
the happy young people were given
the pleasure of cutting the delicious
loaf, which contained the mysterious
button, ring. dime, needle, etc. Just
at this time a messenger boy brought
a telegram to the hostess, which she
read aloud, the love secret being thus
announced. The bride-to-be was pre-.
