SOCIAL HAPPENINGS

Williams of Ardmore, Okla, Thursday
afternoon, Jan. 2.
From the tim the glr SITS were met
at the door by the hostess and greet.
ed by the honored guest until they
departed, not dull moment was spent.
The spirit of genuine Southern hos
pitality was in the whole atmosphere
and felt and enjoyed by the forty or
fifty guests assembled.
After the removal of wraps and
delightful cup of chocolate served by
Mrs. Ina Rogers the greeting of
friends began and a happy time was
spent in merry conversation.
No intimation had been given as to
the nature of the entertainment pro-
vided, so all was delightful anticipa-
tion and wonder as hume rous letters
and symbols were suggestive of
unique.
Very soon the curiosity of all was
satisfied, and seated by fours at the
various tables the game began. The
contest was one of quick thought and
speech, naming articles found in GER
tain houses of business as suggested
by the letters given. While tie var
ious letters We're suggestive of famil-
lar things, yet as the numerous bust
ness houses We're visited, in thought,
one found herself all too slow to re-
spond to the suggestion and claim the
coveted letter The game was pro
gressive and the guests We're quickly
moving from table to table, some los
ing until the afternoon passed all too
quickly and We were reminded that
night was close.
Mrs. Hubbard Thomas was found to
be the fortunate player as the dainty
hand painted plate she received prov
ed.
A dainty two-course luncheon was
served, but still the gueests linger-
ed, loath to leave a place so pleasant
and hospitable, and eager for few
words with the honored guest, Mrs.
Williams.
Thanks to Mrs. Ashcroft and her
sister for such a delightful afternoon.
