BIRTHDAY PARTY

Little Mary Louise, the bright and
attractive daughter of DR.. and Mrs.
G. C. Sheppard, was the honoree of a
pretty birthday party Saturday after
noon. This pretty affair was arrang-
ed by Mrs. Sheppard. who had invited
about fifty little folks as guests. The
day will be memorable not only to the
young hostess but to all the guests,
for Mrs. Sheppard. had decorated her
coy apartment into a perfect little
fairyland for this occasion. The liv-
ing room was one mass of asparagus
fern with ornaments of beautiful pink
roses placed in vases around the
room. Strung from the corners of
the room We're asparagus covered
cords, upon which were strung fancy
cornucopias filled with candy and to
each guest was given one of these
ornaments as souvenir. A color
motif of pink and green was carried
out in every detail. The dainty re-
freshments of ice cream and cake were
in pink as well as the artistic birth
day cake which ornamented the CEN
ter table placed in the living room and
pink and green streamers were strung
from the chandelier to points on the
table. The little tots had wonderful
time blowing out the six candles and
there were many other enjoyable
stunts, such as pinning the tongue in
the donkey's mouth, etc. A lovely col
lection of presents was brought to
Mary Louise and as this was her first
birthday party it will linger long in
her mind as one of the happiest days
of her life
