Klugrta Eutertnln*. Mr*. J. C. Klugb entertained a party of T some sixteen ladles, nl luncheon, Wednesday Feb. 28. Tbe hostess received In a dress of blaok silk, and was assisted by her mother Mrs. J. E. Bradley, similarly dressed. Guests were seated at luncbeon at 2:00 o'clock and remained for an hour or more disposing of tbe sumptuous repast which was served In eight courses. A large cut glass bowl Allied with Jonquils and others flowerB graced tbe oenter of tbe table while u ball of tbe same flowers, was uspended by a piece of white sutln ribbon over tbe centerpiece. To each place a card and Jonquil was attached by a small yellow ribbon, neat and graceful in effect. Tbe table waa laid with drawn work plecee, over yellow, and otherwise adorned by white and yellow oandles. On each end of the table was plaotd a tall cut glass vase filled with Jonquils. . Tbe luncheon was tborongbly eDjoyed. The dignified, yet genial hostess imparled a spirit of welcome and good cheer which dispelled entirely the feeling of stiffness sometimes lnoldent to suob occasions. Judge and Mrs. Klugb have one of tbe most desirable homes in Abbeville. It is situated tvav from the rush of bun lnens. and yet l? Jd easy (oucb with all the cliy advantages. Tbe bouse Is set down, as It were on a spot overlooking a beautiful natural park of original forest, through wblcb a meander, log stream finds Its way by a tortuous route, over rocky falls and around scores of projecting points. Tbe stream makes practically h semicircle about tbe bouse. This park wblob Judge Xlugb kindly opened to tbe publlo bas a place In tbe sweetest recollections of many a yontbful lover. Wblle mere are few plaoes naturally more beautiful It 1b tbe only place ot Its kind near our city. In tbat season wbere "a brighter Iris oomes upon the burnished dove," young men and maidens would by tbe rlppllug f stream, tbe grassy mound and tbo friendly shade, find here that quiet and repoEe which are lovers strongest allies. ^ When we visit Judge and Mrs. Klugh we have tbe somewhat paradoxical feeling that we have enjoyed tbe freshness and beauty of tbe country, wblle yet we have tarried in town.

And then again the Farmers' Union t the Crossing wants to hear from the rnions at the Forks of the Creeks, nd the Flatwoods Union wants to ear bow the Unions in the Red Hills re doing. In fact, we want to know lore about each other, and what is le best way to get at the things that re to the farmers' interest.
