Unique Entertainment

Mr.. and Mrs. Whiting Ames
entertained, in a unique and
novel way, quite a number OF
the younger set, complimenting
their little niece, Miss Zoe Ray
field, of Mobile, Ala, who is
their house guest.
The entire lower floor was
thrown open for the entertain
ment of the guests. Mrs. Ames
was assisted in receiving by Mrs.
Laura w. Harrell and Miss Zoe
Sossoman.
One of the first games indulg-
ed in was pitching the bean bags,
Bonnie Dell Smith being the
fortunate winner of a beautiful
crepe de chine handkerchief.
Next came an interesting con-
test, of fifteen minutes limit, in
which the guests had to form
words out of the name of the
'honoree. The prize for this was
a box of candy which, was pre-
sented to Matte Foster.
Throughout tn e afternoon
bright music was furnished by
Misses Louise Nix, Lois Moss
and Edna Owen and many little
feet "tripped the light fantastic
toe"
Late in the afternoon the
young people were ushered into
the spacious dining room, the
the fragrance of which heralded
the approach of Spring. The
long tables were laid with snowy
white damask, while in the CEN
ter and at each end, resting upon
hand made point lace doilies,
were jardiniers containing lovely
purple hued growing hyacinths
and the intervals between. were
strewn with trailing green vines
and freshly plucked violets.
Delicious block cream and dainty
individual cakes were served.
Those who were so fortunate
as to be present on this delight
full occasion are indebted to the
hostess for most enjoyable
afternoon.
