Dance Last Evening

The Woman's Club building pre-
when the Jingo Club, with a few
friends enjoyed the happiest evening
| of the summer season. Altho the
night was a sweltering one, it did not
\ in the least interfere with the pleas
ures of the dance; the room being
large and we'll stocked with electric
fans. A three-piece orchestra fur
nished inspiring music and through
out the evening a refreshing frozen
strawberry punch was served by Miss
! Agnes Burford.

Miss Ruth Nelson, who is one of the
most popular members of the young
er society set in Hyde Park Place,
| Tampa, and whose engagement to
Capt. G. II. Rorebeck is creating so
nuch social interest, was the recip-
lent of a most unique and beautiful
"yacht shower" yesterday afternoon,
the affair being planned and arrang-
ed by the children in the neighbor-
hood with whom she is a prime fav-
Orite. A yacht, surrounded by the
most realistic artificial sea, was plac-
ed in the center of the large sitting
room at the home of a neighbor. The
| ship was in full sail and the lights
we're so arranged as to cast a morn
ing glow and the effect was indeed
very beautiful. Miss Nelson was
greatly surprised and the thoughtful
ness and love of her little playmates
so beautifully expressed touched her
heart deeply. The ships cargo was
soon landed and every package prov
ed some dainty and useful article.
The entire affair was the work of the
children and one of the most original
and attractive of the many that are
being given in compliment to this
greatly loved little bride-elect.

the players were placed on the YER
anda of the Schreiber home, which is

tie compotes and enjoyed as the
games progressed, and at the con-
clusion of the afternoon Miss Schreib-
