HI WEEK in SOCIETY

The Helgeson home was the setting
Of a bridge luncheon Tuesday when
Mrs. Helgeson entertained in her
usual pleasing manner. The three

six-thirty consisted Of lovely dishes
some of which were originated by
the hostess. For this event the porch,
living room and the dining room
showed a lovely display Of orchid,
yellow and rose tulips intertwined
with ferns. The place cards were in
harmony with the colors of the
flowers. Following luncheon four
tables of bridge were at play, the
total number of games in order be-
ing eight. The ladies having high
score, second high and low were
Mrs. Carl Bull, Mrs. George Koenig

search far before he finds a group
of persons living together in the con-

Few modern architects could
match the craftsmanship which

The proportions of their facades
and the designs formed by perfectly

buildings a remarkable degree of
unity.
Only one change has come over
the village since it was founded in
1649. That is the name by which
the town is known.
Tete des Mots was the name of
this Catholic settlement in the early

origin following battle of two In

Upon agreement the name was
changed to st. Donatus after their
