To be sure, the "VV-atkin Mills concert '-on "Wednesday evening, and the Kerr-King wddlng and Mtes Tingle's "turkey demonstration," which occurred on tho name day, ware all well atonded, .'but when alfs said, it has been Hhe family recalbris and the fcocial affiiirs that centered around the athletic contest on Multnomah Held that have held ohiefest Interest. Xxmrly every body went to the game and many who did so went out again in the evening. The patronesses for tfie concert were not content with. merely lending- their names for the ben'ofit of the affair. Nearly all of them- were In attendance, and many brought 'smaller or larger " parties.

At one end were six turkeys from whose bills red streamers were strung backwards to the Jwan'B beak At eacli cover was a min iature football, fllled with red and white candies and serving as a place 'card as It bore the name of u guest on red and white ribbon. There were red and white mrnation boutonnleres for the men and nosegays for the ladies made in the samn rolors. Individual almond boxes in tur key shape gave empha.ls to the Thanks giving idea. After luncheon guests ad journed to the drawlnc-room In the cen ter of which was a stand bearing a large at basket. In this sat a turkey surrounded 1 "Wednesday and vielots.

Couch Flandors asd Miss Mabel I Claire Howtoa has long boos awaited, as irlonds of both have known Mace before the close of the Exposition that seh an engagement existed. This is the sequel to one of the very pretty love stories of the past Summer. Miss Houston and Mr. Flanders became engaged about the time that Ed mend C. G timer and Miss Zora Forrester did. By all who know her, Mbts Houston is said to be a very sweet girl and a very clever one.
