While the children frolicked about play

delightfully."- in the well decorated house
some of the older persons, while many OF
the latter remained out side watching the
children and telling each other OF past
"reminiscences. Indeed it was delightful
evening for the gentle breeze and the full
moon seemed to lend aid to increase the
festivities.
During the latter part of the evening
the guests were invited to another part oil
the lawn where all could be seated SO as
to further enjoy the inequalities by par
taking of homemade ice cream and cake.

in the novel way by giving it to them in
cones,
While many Of the guests were mem

was by no means exclusive, as many of
the neighbors and other friends were
present. As the hour hand began to climb
to verticle position the party adjourned
to remember the evening as one Of the
