had arranged a miscellaneous shower
for Miss Harriet Kelsey, who is to
marry Mr.. Raymond futile of Attle-

OF long standing were glad to have
the opportunity to shower her. Miss
Kelsey had not been told of the pur-
pose Of the party and when Mrs.
Pidge called her from her home next
door she found room full of friends,
and on a table in the middle an i'm
mense basket filed with gifts Her
pleasure in opening the packages and
reading the friendly or testing rhyme
accompanying each gift, was hugely
enjoyed by all the guests. The gifts
were beautifully varied and unique, as
one friend said: Not even a dupli-
cate," and every past bride-elect
knows the significance of those words.
After the shower everyone enjoyed
the delicious refreshments served by
Mrs. Pidge, Mrs. Pratt and Mrs. Coan,
assisted by Mrs. r. H. Sugatt, Miss
