pleasing to those who
had part in the plan
ming of the annual
- luncheon OF the New
Century Club, could they hear all
of the complimentary things
that have been said. From the
time when the guests were greet
ed by Mrs. F. Burgette Short un-
til the curtain call, for those
who took part in the play, there
was not a dull moment. The
luncheon. so beautifully ar
ranged by Mrs. S. C. Evans and
served speedily and we'll by the
ladies of the Grange, left moth
ing to be desired as to food. The
play There are None of Them
Perfect. coached by Mrs. Irwin
Burton. was very well done, and
proved to be the best form of
entertainment for the afternoon.
The real surprise of the birth
day party was the broadcasting
idea carried out in such a fine
manner by Mrs. Walter X. Bar
rett, the toastmistress. The
club chorus had its rounds of
applause and concentrations.
So, while the affair might not
have been the best birthday cele-
bration, it was equally as good
as any that has been given in
recent years.
