Announcement Party.

Mrs. Arthur Noxon and Miss
Edith Coulthard proved them
selves charming hostesses last
eyening when they most delight
fully entertained twenty young
ladies at an informal announce
mcnt party at the home of the for
mer on Second street, compli-
mentary to Miss Fern Owens.
At eight O'Clock the guests ar

wraps were laid aside and greet
ings exchanged, games were talk
en- up and enjoyed for the re-
manned of the evening.
The valentine idea was artis--
tically carried outin the decora-
tions. The first game in order
was a bean game, in which Mrs.
Worcester Warren and Miss Hazel
haldeman tied for the prize. Cuts

painted plate was bestowed upon
the latter. Following this enjoy
ment each guest was requested 10
write down her favorite recipe to
be made into cook book for the
bride-to-be, at the close of which
Miss Owens was to glance them
over and read aloud the one that
appealed to her the most. Quite
a little merriment was had over
This when she discovered among
the list prize winner entitled.
.''How to Cook Husband. It was
certainly "rich, and we'll worth
lgiving a try-out. Several OF the
lguests won compliments on their
expert bow and arrow shooting
in the blindfolded game. when
they endeavored to hit the center
lof a large red heart pinned upon
1.-THE wall.
About 1 O'Clock an elaborate
ltwo-course tray supper was
served by the hostesses, in which
the color scheme of red and white
was cleverly used.
| Unique valentine favors were
fiven at the close of the spread
containing the announcement and
date of the approaching mar
(riage of Miss Fern Owen to Mr..
Ewart McGavren, March 1, 1917.
After congratulations and half

Bethleheln's Bid on Shells
for the United States Navy

To The American People:
The Secretary Of the Navy has awarded
contracts amounting to over $4,000, 900
TO British bidder for IA and l6-inch
proieciles for the Navy because of very
much lower prices offered by the English
bidders.
Weknow nothing of the basis upon which
the British bids were made. but tho pub
lie is entitled to know the facts upon
which we ourselves bid for this work.
Two years ago we took contracts
to make 1900 l4-inch shello ut a
price Of Sl,5l5,OOO. Up to now
not a single shell has been ac-
cepted by the Government, al
though We have expended, in
wages, materials, etc., ON these
orders e522, 1881, and we have not
received SINGLE DOLLAR on
these contracts.
ln addition. literal Interpretation of
The contract might make US liable foe
penalties amounting to sS78.0l6.
In the light Of our experience, and hav-
Ing NO other basis, we bid for l6-inch
shells approximately the same rate per
pound a. that which the Navy Depart
ment actually awarded l4-inch shell
contract one year ago.
