the choir. the guests were all asked
to line up alphabetically and Mrs. j.

great dead of amusement. but the
spelling bee which followed furnished
even more. Miss Francis Burnes ana
Louis Seel W ere asked to choose sides
and then the real fun began as one

words grew harder and larder-and
those who have studied the old blue
back spelling book know how hard
some of those words are.

two on each side-Miss Margeret
Clement and Mr.. L. A. Werts on Miss
Burns side and Miss Jessie Lewis
and Mrs. j. T. West on Mr.. ,.Seel's
side-eXcitement ran high for awhile.

was declared tile winner Mr.. West,
in behalf of the hostess. presented her
with a pot of beautiful yellow hya-
cinths as the first prize and the spell
ing book was presented to Mr. Blair
