hoover, Mrs. Ethan White and Miss
Virginia Freeland served delicious,
pink JellO, with bananas, with a
generous pile of whipped cream.
The JellO showed through the
glass dishes beautifully. The cake
with nut meats was also delicious.
The home was beautifully decor
ated in yellow roses that blended
so well with the cream lace cur
tains and cream walls. There
was also a vase of daffodils in one
vase. The good Plum Branch
ladies are doing a wonderful work,
and have much more in view. The
visitors were made very welcome,
by the ladies. The afternoon was
all too short. It was with regret
we had to leave such a charming
hostess, but the setting sun said
was time to be going.
Mrs. E. M. Morgan entertained
her Sunday school class of junior
boys and girls with a Valentine
party Saturday afternoon, Febru
ary 14th, at her home. The hostess
did not spare time or expense in
making the affair a success. The
home was beautifully decorated
with hand made flowers, red roses
and violets. The reception room
was draped with hearts of all sizes.
A large red heart in the door ex
tended a welcome to the guests as
they arrived. Raymond Morgan
played cupid with a bow and ar
row, met the guests, giving each a
dart from his arrow, then, each
was presented with a red heart
pierced by a white arrow.
They played a target game, with
bow and arrow. The target was
five hearts, different sizes and col
ors, each color counting from 5 to
25. For this they chose sides. It
was very much enjoyed. They made
Valentines and presented them to
the Sunday school superintendent.
After one or more contests they
were invited into the dining room.
Two tables were arranged with
baskets for center, filled with red
roses, and hearts; streamers crqcs-
ed the table and at each end was
a heart, and white arrows were
placed on the red streamers. The
color scheme was carried out in
refreshments. The cakes were
heart shaped with white icing and
a red arrow across each. The
JellO was red with whipped cream,
the drink was a wholesome fruit
drink, lemonade colored with
blackberry juice from canned ber
ries. The children enjoyed the
afternoon and the shadows of
night were fast approaching as
they turned their faces homeward.

funeral of his uncle Mr. Will Ouzts
