Thomas and Newall Reed, the little
sons of Mr.. and Mrs. Jehu Reed, of
near town, entertained the primary
class of the Magnolia Sunday school
on Monday evening of last week. The
rooms were tastefully decorated with
holly pine, laurel and poinsettias. A
beautifully trimmed tree stood in one
end of the parlOr. An electric train
delighted the boys. A large table load
ed with toys of every description for
! girls and boys charmed the little
folks who played to their utmost en-
! ioyment and they made the house re-
sound with their merry chatter. At
an early hour the little guests were
invited to the dining room. The tables
were laid with white cloth bOrdered
with poinsettias. From a huge white
poppy in the center more of the scar
let flowers stood out and red ribbon
streamers extended to the places.
Each guest pulled a ribbon and a
beautiful red and gold favor was
brought forth which contained prize
and funny red crepe paper hat. The
youngsters wore them the rest of the
evening and were quaint and charm
ing with their headgear over curls and
bObbed hair. After feast of ice cream
and cake each child was presented |
with a gift to take home of oranges |
nuts and candy. Twenty-siX children |
and their parents were invited to the |
