slTHE tree deeked grounds eneireliny
the spacious home of Mrs J. II
Albert afforded a very attraetiv,
setting for the final gathering thii
season of the Thursday Afternoon club
when Mrs. j. d. Sutherland and Mrs
G. A Park joined Mrs. Albert in spon
soring a social afternoon of exception
al enjoyment for the club matrons ane
a few additional guests this week. A
variety Of Red Cross werk filled the
hours to capacity, the serving hour
alone causing a cessation of plyinp
needles. Mrs. j, d. Scott assisted the
hOstesses in serving.
The drawing room was transformed
into a veritable garden spot of lowell
ness by an artistic array of dolphin
1um and Caroline Testout roses. A
burst of crimson color greeted the
guests in the sun parlor, which glowed
with masses of handsome peonies. The
same red note predominated in the H.
brary developed by the abundant use
of deep velvety roses.
The assemblings of the Thursday At
ternoon club have for many years held
a unique niche in Salem's social
sphere, emphasized as they are by a
certain quiet distinction impaired by
the invariably gracious atmosphere
pervading the club affairs and the
personnel itself of the club member
ship. Mrs. A. N. Bush was elected
president for next year and Mrs. II. J.
Bean secretary. The first meeting will
be in October.
