we have established new and de-
lightful acquaintance here. ! am .

mothers home was in and she
came from that place to fifty
years ago.

The Pastime Dancing club had a
gay party at Red Men Monday even
ing. In observance of Lent several
people did not participate in the even
ing's pleasure. The Pastime dances
are immensely popular and each one
seems more enjoyable than the last.
The members are comradely crowd
conspicuous by the absence of mar
ried men who are determined not to
do think but stick around the smok-
ing room and staid danes who are
wont to employ themselves talking,
about young folk in remote corners.
Exceedingly delightful was the
party at the home of Mrs. George
Thompson, Thursday veening. 1t was
Mrs. Harry Leonard's nee Lulu
Thompson birthday and the event was
celebrated righ merrily. The hours
were devoted to games of bridge.
Miss Perle Thompson, by very stren-
uous effort secured the only prize
given, the consolation. Those who en-
joyed the hours with the popular
young matron were the Mesdames d.
R. Mckinney, l.. e. Smith, B. Bon
nard, George Thompson and Ray
Goodman and the Misses Sharley Pike
Erna Kellenberger, Perle Thompson
and Nettie Thompson.

Mrs. Frances A. Oaks was pleas
antly remembered Monday evening on
the occasion of her birthday ami
versary by the Eastern Star of which
she is an honored member. After
the business session of the order was
over, the company adjourned to the
dining room, where an elaborate ban.
quet was awaiting them. The social
part of the affair was complete
surprise to the lady who was its in
spiration. Mrs. Oaks holds a warm
place in the hearts of many people.
She is broad in her sympathies, genial
and gracious in her friedliness, and
tireless in her ministries to her fam
ily and neighbors. To such woman
the Eastern Star folk were proud to
do honor.
