Epworth League Social


Last evening, Miss Nellie Liddon
entertained the members of the SEN
Tor Epworth League and friends at a
most delightful watermelon cutting.
After all mad arrived, the charming
hostess invited the guests into the
parlor where song and social inter-
course was enjoyed. The music rem
dered by Misses Marguerite Edwards,
Fern Bell and Lois Livingston added
much to the pleasure of the evening.
The next half hour was spent in the
solving of conundrums, which afforded
much amusement for all, after which
several of the young ladies tried a
method of hypnotism on some of the
guests, but the merry mood of the
crowd seemed for time to be averse
to the working of this sleep, until
Miss Marguerite Edwards succeeded
in hypnotizing the crowd, in keeping
it quiet, and putting one of the guests
to sleep.
At the proper time the guests were
invited out on the lawn and the wa
termelon cutting began. Several
sweet, juicy waterme1ons were cut
and fully justice was administered to
them, as was evidenced by the way
they disappeared and when all the
guests were satisfied there were still
on the lawn number of uncut melons
that failed to be recokned with.
The writer together with the other
guests wishes to express to the genial
hostess appreciation of this delightful
affair.
Those present were Misses Marie
Burnett, Marguerite Edwards, Lois
Livingston, Fern Bell, Margaret Lit
tie, Katie Mae Eagleton. Dixonia
