about all the lawn games were played

sixty ladies. The spacious porch was
most inviting with an elegantly ar
ranged table from which punch was
served thruout the afternoon. The
orchestra from the Grand" discoursed
beautiful music which proved so elusive
and tempting that very soon dozen
of our most dignifed matrons were out
on the porch going thru the intricacies
of the old-time square dance much to
the amusement of the other guests.
The musical program closed with that
stirring patriotic song THE Star
Spangled Banner" An attractively
appointed two-course luncheon was
served on small tables on the porch,
which were beautiful with flowers
while hand-painted place card guided
each guest to her seat. The hostess

and pleasant conversation. A delight
fully served luncheon followed, the
