| friends and the visit as a cOnse
Quence is made enjoyable TO the ex.
tent that a return at some time is
a pleasant thing to think about
Mrs. John A. Underwood, of phila.
delphia and Miss May Sharp, of Viii
mington, have had several affairs
given in their honor and their hos
tesses as well as their friends have
shared the pleasures with them. 1t
isn't the ethical thing to blow ones
own horn, but Milford is mighty
nice to visitors and in every way
possible the stay is made a pleasant
one.

A card from Mr.. and Mrs. Bayard
Wharton tells of the wonderful wea-

pupil of Miss Mabel Madison Wat
