The hospitable home of the hostess^was thrown wide open to the !1 and every trace I of formality was lost sight in the hearty welcome accorded ! them. Thejoung people were ! not long in taking advantage J of the man}' privileges ex' tended and every one felt as much at home as Mrs Butler ! herself. The guests were received and welcomed at the door by Mr and Mrs Butler and, after extending congratulations to Mrs Kntlor Txroro rnnrlnr-tpd tf> thi* punch bowl, which was presided over by Miss Louise Bass of Lanes and Mr E L Montgomery. After partaking of this delicious beverage the yonng people were left to enjoy themselves in any of the many ways that were open to them, most of them soon becoming engrossed in the fascinating games at the many card tables which were placed in the halls and parlor. After enjoying themselves for a while in this manner supper was announced. The dining-room was decorated in Japanese effect, Japanese candles furnishing the light. The tables were indeed "things of beauty" in their handsome and artistic arrangement, the menu consisting of barbecue, salads, seaming coffee, breads and cakes f all descriptions, olives and pic :les. It is needless to mention that everyone present did ample i justice to the sumptuous repast, i (Right here the writer rises to I remark that the barbecue was the best that it has ever been his good fortune to partake of, and he has been eating barbefor "lo, these many years.") After supper the guests were invited to participate in an ' "observation contest". Miss Odessa Montgomery was the ' lucky winner of the first prize, which was a beautiful siik tan; Miss Leah Townsend won the booby prize. It was in the "wee stria' hours" of the morning when the guests reluctantly departed ; for their several homes, with : nothing but praise for Mr and j Mrs Butler s manner of enterI taining. The following were among those invited: Dr and Mrs W V Brockington, Mr and Mrs R J Kirk, Mr and MrsO II Patrick, Mr and Mrs T M (iilland; Misses j Louise Bass of Lanes, Hannah j Gale, Sadie Carver, Leah Townjsend, Lizzie McClary,Retha Bur gess, Emma Burgess, Lula Mcj Connell, Estelle Campbell, Martha Gordon, Selma Thorn, Barbara Jacobs, Florrie Jacobs, Odessa Montgomery, Mayme Mnntfnmerv.
