THERE'S A WOMAN IN OUR TOWN
Who not long ago gave luncheon
for a friend and her 8-year-old daugh-
| ter, who were visiting here, and a
number of other guests. The hostess
had evidently tried in vain to keep the
ants OUT of her kitchen and when the
| plates for the last course were passed,
| a couple of ants were crawling on one
of them. Of course that plate fell
| to the child, who saw the ants
and thought some huge juke was be-
| ing played on her. In order to show
that she appreciated the comedy, she
said in a loud voice, Say, Mrs. x, you
put ants on my plate"
! DIR. and Mrs.~C. r. Silverthorne en-
tertained DR.. and Mrs. George V.
Allen at dinner. DR.. Allen goes to

| fashionable than ever before. For
suits, dresses, wraps and hats it is to

of August, and those who have just
returned from New York say that the
velvet hat is in evidence these days
where is the fashionably dressed
woman of the city,
