Thoughts Treasureable
Blessed are they who have the gift
of making friends, for it is one Of
Gods best gifts. 1t involves many
things, but above all, the power of
going out of ones self, and appreciat-
ing whatever is noble and loving in
another-Thomas Hughes.

ing them especially to meet her niece,

sOnal charms.
The hostess, wearing yellow chiffon,
met her guests at the front door and
informally presented them to Miss
Burts, who wore becoming and pref
thy fashioned costume of blue pussy

For the pleasure of the guests a
musicale was arranged and the open
ing number, Hungarian Rhapsody No.
II, was beautifully rendered by Miss
Ethel Haycraft. Miss Burts is
talented musician and although she
has previously visited in the city her
exquisite voice was heard for the first
time last evening by several of the
guests present. Those who had heard
her, greatly anticipated the evening
and Miss Burts quickly made admir-
ers of her new hearers in her first
group of songs, consisting of "a
Bowl of Roses" Gan Emblem" "a
Dream" and "Just Little Love,
Little Kiss" Her Accomplishments
were played by Miss Haycraft. 90
Promise Me-" Because" and several
other selections were sung, all being
enjoyed as were also the other num-
bers given by Miss Haycraft.
A musical guessing contest was
an interesting feature of the evening.
From few strains played by Miss
Burts, the title of the selection had
to be guessed. Miss Annie Davis
proved the most skilled guesser and
was awarded the prize.
