Magazine Club Banquet.
No social affair of the season was
more enjoyable than the banquet ten
dered the husbands of the Magazine
Club by its members last Friday eve
ming at the hospitable home of Mr..
and Mrs. R. NJ. Chambliss. This club,
which is one of the oldest social or
CARNATIONS in the city, is rounding
out the twentieth year of its existence
and the banquet is an annual event of
the holiday season and no affair is
looked forward to with more pleasur-
able anticipation. This home, which
lends itself so redaily to entertaining,
was never more attractive than on this
occasion, the dining room being es-
pecially so with its beautifully appoin-
ted table, having for its center piece
large vase of colored roses. A most
pleasing feature of the evening was
the toasts given, among them Mr..
Wills responding in an unusually hap
Ply manner to the toast, "0ur Wives"
Mr.. Chambliss acting ak toast mas
ter. Seated at the table enjoying the
most delightful menu were Messrs.
and Mesdames VIM. Kinney, F. w.
Lyle, D. /. Dupree, j. W. Byrn, C.
w. Forrest, Mann Wills, N. R. Dupree
]. H. Sewer and R NJ Chambliss
Reception and Shower.
A farewell reception and shower
was given on Tuesday afternoon for
Miss Mollie Hood by the ladies of the
Methodist church at the home of Mrs.
]. w. Byrn. Miss Hood will leave
next Saturday for San Francisco,
whence she expects to sail on January
% for 500 Chow, China. Miss Moilie
has spent year among us and we
have become SO attached to her that
we dislike to see her leave. Her talks
and prayers have been an inspiration
to those who were fortunate enough
to enjoy her company during the past
year. She will be gone for another
seven years and she will take with
her the love and blessing of US all.
The beautiful gifts which she receiv-
ed were tokens of love and apprecia-
ton which were felt by the ladies'
present. Miss Laura Bradford made
a beautiful and touching talk of pre-
sentation to Miss Hood, who answer
ed in words of appreciation which fill
led every heart present. Sandwiches
and hot chocolate were served during
the afternoon.
