A Most Enjoyable Occasion.
Thc Dixie Chapter, U. D. C., are pa
triots through and through, and cele
brated the birthday of "Tho Father of
his Country" in a beautiful manner on
Tuesday, the 24th ult. The handsome
home of Mrs. J. A. lirock was a lit sot
ting for the artistic decorations, which
consisted of shields and draped Hags
with tho American Eagle perched <>n
Stars and stripes, lu a nook in the
wide hallway the young daughter of
the gracious hostess dispensed deli
cious red neeta!*, which contained the
inevitable cherries. The punch bowl
rested on a beautifully embroidered
piece design bunches ot chet ties.
The program was to have been en
tirely a Washington ont?, hutu belated
paper on "The J Sn 11 tc- < ? l the Wilder
ness''waa road b.v Miss Edith Dargan,
which was interesting and appropriate,
inasmuch as it reminded that the
Daughters ol the Confederacy were
also Daughters ol America. Decidedly
unique was the next feat uro on the
program, which was an original love
story by .Mis. Teresa Strickland. "Tho
Ghost ol her Gn at Grandmother" was
the name of tho story, and the scene
was laid at Mount \ onion. Tho de
scription of the house and grounds wi re
Bo realistic that all felt when she fin
ished reading thal they had been trans
potted to tho historic hollie, and indeed
lind a glimpse ot lifo in the ({evolu
tionary days, ami a personal introduc
tion to our hero. At the conclusion of
this thrilling romaneo Mrs. Cora S.
Lig?n sung "The. Star Spangled Bun
ncr,'' iii which many joined in the in
spiring chorus.
Mrs. A. 1*. Johnstone'* gleanings wore
pithy and timely. Her comparisons of
Washington's administration and that
of the present were not nattering to
tile latter, all from a Southerner's point
of view. The last on the program was
a bright little song, "Cherry Ripe,'' by
Mrs. Teresa Strickland, which was ex
ceedingly appropriate to tho occasion.
Tile souvenus given by the hostess
were metal hatchets tied with red,
white and bluo ribbon on cards bear
ing tho date, and a special souvenir for
tho President, Mrs. Fant, was a largo
hatchet with miniature of George
Washington on the handle und a bunch
of cherries tied with red, white and
blue ribbon.
The dining room was brilliant and
v:ts a perfect linnie to this lovely meet
i..<. Salads, turkey croquetts, crack
?..o, tollte und sweets were served.
