From a practical point the an
nual tea for Wesley's w. S. c. S.
was a real success. The musical
concert proved to be super and re-
vealed much expert training and
unusual talent. The whole program
made a profound impression on the
hushed audience. Many lovely and
expensive baskets of flowers aided
in decorating the spacious base
ment of Central Methodist Church
where the affair was conducted.
The table was masterpiece spread
with tasty sandwiches that were
prepared in beautiful open patterns
by the women. Homemade cakes,
nuts, mints and other delicacies
helped to fill the laden table. The
special numbers from Carver were
quite excellent. Mrs. James Gross
sang several solos that were sweet
and we'll received. The girls choir
from Booker T. Washington School
appeared in matching uniforms.
The evening and formal gowns
modelled by the Wesley Women
were a lovely hue of vivid colors
as radiant as a heavenly rainbow.
