The afternoon affair given Friday,
Aug. 81, by Mrs. J. r. Jordan, 239
South Marina street, in honor of Mrs.
o. G. Howard and Mrs. Mary f. Scott
of Phoenix, was indeed a sumptuous
affair. However, it was typical Hen
Party. Mrs. Jordan, the hostess, was
very thoughtful, for she requested all
invited guests to bring their knitting,
crocheting, sewing and embroidery
work. This request was made because
of the fact that IAN idle brain is the
devils workshop" As a result, the
large number of women assembled in
this home enjoyed a delightful after
noon and at the same time accom-
plished something for themselves. A
dainty repast consisting of ice cream
and cake was served by the hostess
and all the ladies were made to feel
that they were being treated very
cool Ito ice cream, of course). This
gathering of ladies proved to be an
epoch-making affair, and history will
record the wonderful achievement of
