Mrs. Will Davis Entertains,

A dinner which was especially inter-
esting was given on last Friday by
Mrs, Will Davis in honor of her moth
er, Mrs. Alice Wells. The guests
were chosen among the friends of
Mrs. Wells, and it is interesting to
note that among them were three
school girl friends who years ago at
tended the old Webb school some
miles from town. They were Mrs. NJ.
L. Taliaferro, Mrs. Helen Bond and
Mrs. A. NJ. Austin. This was the first
time in 63 years that these four school
mates had been together, and the rem
inlscenees were interesting to hear.
Il Is needless to say that the occasion
was enjoyable and the menu was de-
licious. Covers were laid for Mes.
danes Austin. Moore, Nail, Taliafer-
70, Allison, Bond, Wells and Davis.

Social and
Personal
Friday Evening Musical.

One of the most delightful enter.
tainments given during the holiday
season was at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Kinney, when the Music
Club presented their popular lyric So
prano, Mrs. James Bond, in cycle of
Gypsy songs by Dvorak. The magni.
fcent Kinney home on Washington
street was artistically decorated for
the occasion with Richmond roses and
other holiday suggestions. The guests
were received by Mesdames OPAL Bur-
ton, j. H, Sewer, q. B. Williams and
J. W. Z. Moore. Mrs. Kinney, in an
attractive gown of canary colored
messaline, presented Mrs. Bond, who
wore beautiful dress of white net
over messaline and a corsage bouquet
of violets and valley lilies. Nature has
endowed Mrs. Bond with voice of
unusual merit and her program on this
occasion proved 80 the appreeiative
audience that Brownsville is fortunate
in having an artist of unusual ability
who can so beautifully run the gamut
of emotions from the glad, free song
of the Gypsy to the sad notes of the
farewell.
Miss Gertie Bauman, another gifted
musician, accompanied Mrs. Bond on
the piano and her artistic touch added
much to the success of the occasion.
Miss Bauman was attractive in a be-
coming gown OF pink messaline.
AT the close Of this delightful pro-
gram the guests were invited into the
dining room where Mesdames Fred
Lyle and Emory Wagner were seated
at beautifully appointed table which
had as its center piece a vase OF Rich
mond roses. They were assisted in
serving the delightful menu by Mes
danes Clarence Berson and Ike
Rothschild and Miss Laura Bradford
Mann.
