Mrs. Waterman Entertained for Her
Mother and Sister

Mrs. Ards Waterman entertained
this afternoon at a lovely tea and
"talkfest" at her home on South Sec
ond street in compliment to her
mother, Mrs. B. J. Potter and sister,
Mrs. Mallory Liddon Of Jacksonville,
who have been her guests for several
weeks.
This was Mrs. Waterman's first
party since moving into her pretty
new home and the occasion has been
anticipated with pleasure by her host
of friends. The house, which is most
attractively arranged on the inside
for entertaining, was prettily orna-
mented for this occasion. In the sit
ting room were placed large bowls
of blue hydrangeas, the same pretty
blossoms being banked about the
punch bowl, which was placed in a
coy nook on the front veranda. In
the dining room tall vases of gor-
geous long-stemmed roses were used,
the central table being adorned with
a handsome lace cover and tall vase
of roses with cut glass cOmpOtes fill
ed with minis.
Receiving at the front stoop was
Mrs. E. L. Carney, who passed the
guests down the veranda to where
Mrs. Chas. Lloyd, Mrs. John Taylor
and Miss Meta Jewett served a re-
freshing and delicious fruit punch.
Mrs. Waterman received her guests
at the front door with a winning and
gracious charm of manner casting
aside all formality. She introduced
the ladies to her mother, Mrs. B. J.
Potter, and her sister, Mrs. Mallory
Liddon. All were most becomingly
gowned in soft dainty summer SHIN
merry robes, most attractive and dain-
ty for a hot midsummer afternoon.
As the guests assembled they passed
along into merry groups, chatting a
moment with Mrs. Edward Holder,
Mrs. G. S. Scott, Mrs. Ernest Crook,
Mrs. Sarah E. Waterman and Mrs.
w. S. Bullock, who saw that no one
was left alone.
In the dining room Miss Martha
Kate Rentz and Hope Robinson SER
we'd pistachio and vanilla ice cream
shaped in triangular form on pretty
plates with white cake and minis.
During the receiving hours from four
to six the house was comfortably fill
ed with admiring guests-happy to
meet again and upon such pleasant
III. h.,
guests.
Mrs. Waterman's party was indeed
happy inspiration and gave great
pleasure to her host of friends for
tunate enough to be present upon this
delightful midsummer afternoon.
