A recitation by.4 little Miss Elizabeth White,\foilo wed. with a vocal solo by Miss Mattie Lou Wicker were very much enjoyed by ail. A vocal duet by Misses Lizzie and Minnie Salter, and a piano solo by Miss Georgia Porter did their part in making the evening enjoyable.

Then after .pursuing progressive conversation for some time, cards distributed and a contest announced. The "Wear Ever " boys Messrs 0. E. j Bass and E. E.
