C. Rundstrom last Thursday evening
when the ladies of the P E. o. enter
tanned a company of friends, compli-
mentary to mothers-their own or
someone's else. The spacious parlors
of this lovely home lend themselves
beautifully to entertaining and were
especially attractive on this occasion,
with huge bouquets of garden flowers
in bowls and baskets. Early in the
evening each guest was given favor
in form of dainty nosegay of pansies
and sweet alyssum suspended from the
wrist by white ribbon. Visiting was
interrupted by short program con-
