Some of the nicest parties your soc. ed. has ever had the privilege of sciibbling out are the ones tlat have been given and are being given for Edna John son. Outstanding among these was the coffee List Friday morning given by Mrs. Forret Summer, Mrs. O. O. Copeland, Mrs. J. Dudley French, and Miss Evelyn Summer of Monroe, Ga. A “coffee” is quite a new thing to Newberrians. We found it quite delightful, and we’re hoping there will be lots of them from now on.
