A most enjoyable social function of the past week was a miscellaneous shower given Friday afternoon hy Misses Cary Doyle and Lura Perritt at the home of the latter in honor of Miss Ora Bagwell, the bride-to-be. The doors of this hospitable home were thrown open at 4 o'clock to the guests, who on arrival were seated on the broad veranda and later were ushered into the spacious parlor and hall (the two being thrown together for the occasion), where five tables had been arranged, each to accommo date four guests, and an interesting progressive game was played. At the close of the game it was announced that four participants, viz., Misses Ora Bagwell, Agnes Ellison, Inez Grant and Suanee Daly, must draw for the prize, which was a box of candy, Miss Agnes being the winner. Delicious cake and punch were served, after which a leaflet 'was given each guest, on which to write a wish, a prophecy and advice to the bride, and on the opposite page to draw a photo of the groom. These photos, by the way, furnished suffi cient evidence that Bounty Land is not one whit behind any other section in the efficiency of her amateur ar tists. While seated underneath a largo suspended hell, reading these prophesies, etc., to the audience, the fair honoree was completely over whelmed in a veritable cloud-burst of shower gifts, which fell simulta neously at her feet. The gifts were both dainty and useful. The guests were about 30 in number, and the affair was a most enjoyable one. Mrs. M. T. Hughs and Mrs. Cece lia B.
