MISS HANNAH GALE ENTERTAINS.
On Wednesday evening- the
24th inst., Miss Hannah Gale entertained
at the home of Mr and
Mrs L S Jennings, on Academy
street, the guest of honor being
MissJanie Allen of Florence.
The house and grounds were
beautifully decorated with flowers,
pot plants, and vines, and
' < T
me many Japanese lauiaua
witb their soft and mellow light
made the scene one of beauty,
and the cozy nooks and cool retreats
curtained by nature's
choicest flowers surpassed the
beauty of Fairy-land. As the
ladies arrived each one was given
a small bow of ribbon the
corresponding color of which
was pinned to a paper heart
and the several hearts pinned
to a large heart and put upon
the wall as a target, at which
the gentlemen had to shoot
with bow and arrow to determine
Trim his nartner for the
; r
evening should be; and "Lucky
was he who's aim so streight,
determined then his future
fate " The couples being paired
off they were given several
pictures representing various
advertisements and requested
to write the name of the article
represented by the picture, and
for quite a while it was two
souls with but a single thought,
and that thought was who
> would win the prize. At the
j conclusion of the contest Miss
|Janie Allen was declared the
j winner of the prize, a five pound

MISS ADELAIDE HARPEIi ENTERTAINS.
Miss Adelaide Ifarpei was the
hostess at a most enjoyable affair
on Friday evening given at
her home in honor of Miss Marion
Gilland's popular guests,
Misses Reid, Mikell and Ried.
Miss Harper is one of the selason's
graduates from Winthrop
and her many friends are glad
to welcome her home after her
long absence. It was this spirit
of welcome home-coming
that gave an added zest to the
pleasure of the evening.

spectacle. Under one of
the beautiful shade trees Miss
Rosa and Master Archie Wilkins
dispensed delicious fruit
punch. Inside the bouse the
decorations were particularly
pleasing, a profusion of pot
plants being placed about artistically
and quantities of flowers
added their sweetness and
beauty. In the dinning room

was gracefully carried out. On
each table was a vase of pink
roses and the rosy hue prevailed
in the ice cream and delicately
iced cakes.
The leading game of the evening
was quite a unique one
and called for cleverness and
originality. Each guest was
presented with paper and pencils,
the papers being numbered
?the ladies to correspond with
the gentlemen. The ladies were
told to write a line of a proposal
and hand the paper on to the
next lady, who read the line
written and added another.
The gentlemen were given the
? task of writting answers to pro|
posals, this being leap year.
Each one read only the line
written immediately before he
or she received it and folded
the paper. After each one had
written a line the couples paired
off according to the number on
the paper in possesion at the
close of the game. Then each
couple read aloud the proposal
and answer. Naturally most of
the results were absurdly funny
