Delightful Tea


Delightful Tea
Early Wednesday morning it did
not look as if the silver tea planned
ly the Victory Way committee of
the Woman's Club could be held, bu.
later on the skies became clear, and
by room the sun was shining as pretty
and bright as could be.
The club house was still in it's pref.
ty Halloween attire, and with the adj
dition of few bowls of yellow daisies
was exceedingly attractive. There
were present many ladies to enjoy the
tea and musical
Ocala singers, who are all so gen.
eorus with their talent, were there on
Thursday and the program was a most
pleasing and enjoyable one. The
songs sung were the old time ones
that are always so sweet and pretty.
No prettier pieces have ever been
written than Annie Laurie, Coming
Thru the Rye, the Last Rose of Sum
mer, and these were the songs sung
at the tea Thursday afternoon. Mrs.
Earl Hall was the accompanist, and
the singers were Mrs. HI. M. Hamp-
ton, Mrs. Leverette Futch and Miss
Music Bullock. Miss Lyndell Math-
ews was to have given a violin solo
but some accident befell her instru.
ment and this pleasure had to be post
poned.
Mrs. Hood, who is the chairman of
the Victory Way, was assisted by diff.
ferent members of the committee, and
at the conclusion served lovely re-
of coffee with chicken sal
ad sandwiches.
A splendid silver offering was TAX
en- in at this tea.
Victory Way is the most beautiful
thing ever started by the club, mem
ory to the boys who offered them
selves in the great war, and every eff
fort is to be put forward to continue
and beautify this avenue. A series of
teas will be given during the club
wear. and at each one all the ladies
and gentlemen too will be extended a
cordial welcome.
