Happy Birthday Party

THE COCOl Happy Birthday Party
 A birthday celebration was the very happy experience of winsome little Emily Lucille Murphy on last Friday evening when a few of her playmates were bidden to the Murphy home on West Aspen avenue to help the little girl enjoy her eleventh birthday. An eventful evening was spent in the kind of games and sports that little girls enjoy most. The dining board, where the small guests enjoyed a real feast of goodies was gaily decorated with beautiful flowers and centered with the big birthday cake bearing eleven tiny blue and pink candles. The favors in blue and pink delighted the hearts of the little girls, and each guest found at her place darling little candle to wink and blink at her and later to serve as flames over which the happy children roasted the marshmallows. At eight o'clock the youthful guests and their hostess, ac- companied by her mother, formed a happy theater party which ended the delights of an occasion that will not soon be forgotten by the little people who numbered Josephine Wilson, Ruth Brown, Catherine Brown, Mary Will son, Vivette Wilson, Jack Murphy, and the little guest of honor, Emily Lucille Murphy.
