Mesdames o. L. Young and j. G..
Young Guetss of Honor.

Wednesday afternoon at the home
of Mrs. w. N. Barber the Upper
Granite Embroidery Club gave a
farewell party to Mrs. o. L. Young,
who leaves for an extended visit to
her son in Denver, and Mrs. ]. G..
Young, who, after spending two
winters in Ashland, returns with re-
stored health to her home in Ho-
quiam, Wash. Music, both instru-
mental and vocal, was by Mrs. Joe
Alnut, Mrs. Carl Loveland and Mrs.
L. B. Nicholson. A seed contest
proved very interesting, but when the
historian" appointed by the presi-
dent, proceeded to record the ro-
mances and matrimonial ventures of
the club members, they all laughed
until they forgot their troubles. A
delicious salad course with hot cof
fee followed with homemade can
dies, proved quite satisfying.
There is not, in Ashland or any
other town, community where love
and good-fellowship hold forth to
greater extent than in this Upper
Granite neighborhood. The follow
ing poem, written by Mrs. George
HALEY was presented each of the
guests of honor:
There's a place in the mountains so
fair
Where the forest and fruit trees
caress;
There the mineral waters so rare
Bring to needy ones health and
success.
In this town runs q picturesque
street
Upper Granite its name has been
found;
Artist nature has made it complete,
And the deer and the coyote
abound
Here the flower of true friendship is
grown
In an atmosphere loyal and kind;
Friend and stranger alike do we own,
Striving always their heart-strings
to bind.
When the outer world calls some
away
To fill places more stirring than
this,
May the walls of their memory each
day
Bring them pictures of Granite
street bliss.
