Has Meeting
The T. E. L. class of the Baptist
Church held its monthly meeting
at the home of Mrs. H. N. Coleman
with Mrs. J. S. Dukes, Mrs. Jack
Bradley and Mrs. J. R. Crawford as
assistant hostesses. The house was
decorated with roses and other
spring flowers.
The meeting was called to order
by the president, Mrs. T. W. Mor
gan, and the business of the class
was discussed in a very interest
ing manner. The class has been
divided into two teams, the reds
and the blues. The captains for
the blues, Mrs. Brown; for the reds,
' Mrs. C. R. Strom, gave each mem-
jber a ribbon. It is yet to be seen
which side will win out in the con
test.
The meeting was turned over to

class.” Several spirited and inter

In the hat contest Mrs. Bruce

ing the most “stylish hat.” At the
close of the hour spent in amuse
ment the hostesses served delicious
cream and angel food cake. The
souvenirs were hand painted cards
with rose buds typical of the
spring.
