Mrs. N. J. Asberry was hostess to
the Progressive Mothers club last
Fridsv evening at Halloween par
ty. The house was brilliantly light
ed from top to bottom for the occa-
sion. The seasons colors, yellow and
black formed the color scheme for
the interior decorations. In the din
ing room the center of attraction, the
side board was laden with fruits in
the center of which was large vel
low-gold pumpkin. The dining table
was profusely decorated with flow
ers, the leading flowers being Mari
colds. At each place was a yellow
decorated paper napkin to keep the
harmony of the color scheme. A de-
iightful program was rendered after
which the members of the club and
their guests filed into the dining
room to partake of the delicious gum
DO supper which the hostess had
prepared herself. Many who had
not previously known of the culinary
attainment of the hostess expressed
surprise at her versatility. At the
regular Halloween hour the guests
departed for their homes wishing
that Halloween came oftener than
once year.
The Rhododendron Study Climb was
entertained with an "Inch Party.
last Tuesday evening. It was real
fun to watch the skill with which
Mrs. c. H. Graves welded the meas
uring tape in taking the measure
ment of each member of the club
and their guests. But it was more
fun to see the one measured walk over
to Mrs. Hattie Jackson, the secre-
tary, and pay the penalty. But the
evening was so pleasantly spent in
music, conversation. and delicious
supper prepared bv the two Joint hos
tesses. Mrs. McBeth and Mrs. Smith,
that the penalty was soon forgotten.
