A McKinstry at her Fourth street home. The evening was spent in playing- children's games and until 9 o'clock fun and frivolity ran rife. Refreshments were served. Hand some prizes were awnrded for vari ous games and Mrs. McKinstry was pronounced a charming hostess. Last Monday evening Mrs. Thomas . A. McKinstry . and Mrs. A. J. Van Valkenburg entertained guests for Bevcn tables at cards at one of the mose unique affairs of Hallowe'en week. The commodious basement of the McKinstry home was decorated most lavishly in Hallowe'en colors and the quests added a lustre of color by -oomiiig in masquerade costomes. While the guests were playing cards in the basement, and at which Mrs. McAllister won first, Mrs. Chas. Bid ner second and Mrs. H. M. Bouvey ' nhird, the guests were permitted to ! ro to the main floor where a very de licious two-course luncheon was aerwd. No time or effort had been spared to make the evening enjoyable, and the hostesses succeeded splen didly. mm It was a rare treat enjoyed Mon day evening in the Methodist church, when a good-sized audience greeted one of the greatest singers La Grande has ever had the opportunity of hear ing. The remarkable quality of the voice, so perfectly handled by this artist of song completely enraptured the hoi'se. As the program developed the audience had a splendid oppor tunity to hear the long technique and to notice how perfectly Mrs. Chap man understands how to handle her beautiful and full-sounding voice. At the close of the program she was the recepient of two large cluster boquets after which she came back and sang another song, completely entrancing her listeners. Mrs. Chapman is in the Zenith of her art and her voice is perfectly glorious. m m m One of the delightful affairs of the early Wv.ek was the dinner party which was given Monday evening at Honan Hall. Covers -were placed for 14. The latter part of the evoninr; was devoted in playing cards ar.d dancing. The table was adorned with i pumpkins and lighted candles, the favors and appointments were sug gestive of the- Halloween season. Those present were: Miss Jones, Miss Leslie, Miss Russell, Miss Grim mett, Miss Aikine, Mr. French. Mr. ninvcomb. Mr. . Wild, Mr. Cox, Mr. Groman; Mr. and Mrs. Charles Rey nolds and Mr. and Mrs. Gene Selders. The Chautauqua association again showed the right spirit when it gave a benefit recital for Marguerite Car ney. Miss Carney has always been . Chautauqua booster and has been on the program for several seasons. Her work at the Chautauqua was always gratis and the concert under the aus pices of the association in some meas ure expresses the appreciation which the people of La Grande feel for pub lic work well done. Miss Carney wis the stellar attrac tion on the program and rendered two groups of selections. Her full round voice filled the tabernacle easily. It was not a loud voice, but a full sweet one. For the first group cf songs Miss Carnev was her own accompan ist. Though blind, she plays the piano without hesitation and with a great deal of expression. Exeryone seemed willing to help. The piano was furnished without ex pense by the Richey Music house. The association was fortunate in securing people of real musical ability to aid Miss Carney and thus make the pro gram exceptionally strong, and worth more than the price of admission. Mrs. Cornelia (Barker Carse de- ! lighted the audience with her violin selections. Miss Harriet Young in two selections on the piano showed her mastery of that instrument. Mrs. I A. L. Richardson, our coloratura so jprano rendered her group of selec tions most exquisitely. With these ! stars the program was rounded out ,with the song of Mr. George Birnie, I the cornet solo by Mr. Andrew Loney I and a reading of Mrs. Metcalf.
