One of the prettiest dinner parties
of the social year at A. and M. College
was that given Monday evening by
Mr.. and Mrs. A. T. Potts honoring
Mrs. j. Oscar Morgan. The party,

of Mr.. and Mrs. Potts.
While the decorations were simple
they were exceptionally artistic, and

was featured extensively in the deco.
rative scheme. Pink streamers hung
gracefully from the ornate chandelier
from which was suspended the figures
representing the age of the honoree.
Dinner was announced at dusk and to
add to the charm of the occasion cleo
trio lights were extinguished and the
room was lighted by candles dimmed
by pink shades.
An immense birthday cake fittingly
frosted, candle lighted, and covered
with vari-colored candies, reposed in
an urn artistically decorated with red
and white carnations.
The figures "13" also figured con-
spicuously on the place cards.
After the dinner the guests assem-
bled in the drawing room where five
hundred was played Mrs. Potts also
favored her guests with selections on
the piano.
Mrs. Potts is coming to be recog-
nized as one of the most charming and
gracious hostesses on the college
grounds, and the announcement that
she is to entertain is always warmly
welcomed by the socially inclined at
the college.
Present at this very delightful din
ner were DR.. and Mrs. ]. Oscar Nor.

Comfort for the Plump.

There is little enough in present day
styles to bring happiness to the stout
woman. Her hips are constant source
of worry, in spite of the fact that her
waist is just in style. And when she

der bodies and the corsets that end at
the waist she is filled with dismay
But the bassieres Of heavy allover

them down at the waist, are q real
boon to the plump woman. They are
really dainty and attractive; at the
same time they are substantial and

he had taken the rooms. Could it
be that she thought he hated all chill
dren?
His reflections were interrupted by
whisper behind him. Looking
around. he saw the two children COM
ing down the walk. When they saw
him the little lad stopped and looked
as II he were about to run away.
Mcdonald arose and, taking q child in
each hand, led them to the door.
MrB. Burt met them at the door.
She was very pale and her hands
were trembling, but she held up her
head and looked straight in his eyes.

They are mine"
Good heavens! Where have they

they had to learn to be quiet and
not bother him."
Mcdonald recalled something he
had heard about a brutal husband and
father. and stood aghast to think he
had been put in the same class. Mrs.
Burt was awaiting his verdict, and
the children were looking on with
scared faces. Without q word he led

"Oh.h!" said Mrs. Burt, and then
for some reason she dropped her eyes
and blushed.
Then Mr.. Mcdonald, who had been
In some doubt before, smiled with
great satisfaction.

Does Mrs. Burt let you play here?
he questioned, for the lad seemed anx-

"Yes, cir. but l must go now." was
the answer, and they hurried away.

The constant opening up of new
