LOVELY TEA
FOR MISS DUGAN
Misses Janie Simpson, Nora John
ston, and Charlotte Lee per gave a
lovely tea on Saturday afternoon at
the-Harriett home in honor of Miss
Caroline Dugan, bride-elect of Dennis
Sowers of this city.
The living rooms were tastefully
decorated with pink and heliotrope,
the colors of the many candles and
! meeting ih Washington later^-He also
sLifed that the holding of a Jackson
< *; Day dinner, some time in the week of
1 the committee meeting, is under con-
sideratioif. 'Jackson day, the 8th of
January, is on Sunday, and the cele-
, bration will take place on a \^eek day.
Mr. Shaver planned an earlier meet
ing—-immediately after the new year
—but when told that many members
in the far West could not get here in*
time, he moved it up.
A full meeting of the committee is
expected, and some interesting sub
jects will be brought up. Although
Mr. Shaver does not expect any action
on the question of the two-thirds rule
for the national convention, he would
not be surprised if some member tries
to put the committee on record by in-
troducfhg a resolution requiring a
vote.
Many cities have been suggested for
the national convention next year. The
list includes:
Boston, Atlantic City, Indianapolis,
Washington, Denver, Cleveland, De
troit, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, San
Francisco, Kansas City, St. Louis and
Charlottesville, Va.
Cleveland, Detroit. and . San Ft/an-
cisco are also out for the Republican
convention and if one of them should
be selected, then delegates would not
go there.
%
Mr. Shaver has conferred with lead-
inrig Democrats here and a majority
of those seen told him they do hot fa
vor the abolition of the two-thirds
rule. Some of the Southehrn members
of the. committee who several months
ago came out for a majority rule, are
now opposing that, and will vote to
retain the two-thirds rule.
Senator Simmons and Chairman
Shaver went over the legislative sit-
a
i

the pink in the color of the cake and ua tj 0 n here, with particular reference

with a neatly arranged card and pen
cil and the one guessing the greatest
number of words representing flowers,
articles suitable for a trosseau, places
to travel—ail to begin with the letters
D-U-G-A-N was awarded a prize. Miss
Eleanor Keels was the successful con
testant and was presented with the
silver ring of a dinner bell.
Mrs. L. Ross Lynn in her usual gra
cious manner, presented to Miss Du
gan a tray of silver knives, forks, and
two sets of spoons, the gift of the of
ficers, matrons and teacher friends of
Miss Dugan at Thornwell.
A delectable plate of chocolate cake
and candy was served each guest, and
on every plate was a dainty heart fa
vor of blush pink and heliotrope.

“I am in favor of a very decided cut
in the tax bill,” said Mr. Shaver. “The
amount of the reduction can be left
to Representative Garner, ranking
member of the ways and means com
mittee, and Senator Simmons, ranking ;
Democrat on the finance cimmittee,
