VERY PRETTY SHOWER WAS
RENDERED FOR MISS PARMALEE

Mrs. Evan Hughes, 804 Pleasant
street, was hostess last evening at a
prettily arranged shower party in
honor of Miss Mildred Parmalee,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. B. C. Par
malice, AS South Fourth street, who
will become the bride of Dean
Schweikhard, son of Mr.. and Mrs. d.
l.. Schweikhard,. 800 Locust street on
June IA. Mr.. Schweikhard is teacher
of manual training in Sioux City,
Iowa. The rooms and tables were
appropriately decorated with hearts
and summer flowers, violets and cow
slips being used as bowl bouquets.
About thirty guests were present,
and very pleasant evening was en-
joyed. Miss Parmalee was given a
card directing her to a concealed
gift and she started on a seemingly
endless hunt, each gift she discovered
containing note directing her where
to find another gift. This manner of
locating the many pretty and useful
gifts from her friends caused much
merriment. A floral wedding was
held which also added to the pleasures
of the evening. and at the close of
the party delicious refreshments were
served by the hostess.

Press and young Palmer of the In

morning. All the boys were in good
spirits, all glad they came and they
all left for points on the Atlantic

separated from the others to go to
New York state.
About ninety per cent of the men
look like tramps until they get their
hair cut and their uniforms, then
they look like men. Occasionally
one sees men dressed in overalls
walking around with a stick with a
nail in the end of it picking up pa
per. They are followed by soldier
with rife. These men have brok-
en- some rule or other and are being
punished in this way.
