Lexington.... ll^s Miss Butler Entertains. Miss Lueile Butler was a pleasing hostess on last Monday evening to a number of her friends here. The occasion was a delightful lawn party given in honor_ of her ^house-party guests, Misses Elizabetn nawKins, 01 Prosperity, Josie Carroll, of Yorkville, and Sadie DesPortes, of Ridgeway. "Those who were fortunate enough to receive the neat little invitations knew that a pleasant evening was in , store for them, and charmingly indeed did the petite hostess entertain. The conventional Japanese lantern added its weird shadows to the soft \ moonlight, which enveloped the pretty-lawn in front of her home, and inviting cozy corners, half hid among the vines and shrubery, made the scene ideal. During the evening a dainty course of ices was served by the younger sisters of the hostess. Later the guests retired to the parlors j ^ where musical selections and a reading by Miss Hawkins, increased the | -enjoyment of the evening. Too soon j the wee sms' hours arrived and the ' guests departed, each with pleasant memories of a happily spent evening. Si? Bargains! Bargains!!
