FTER the excitement preva
lent with brides' roses, satin
ribbons and old Bhoes, of last
week, the social affairs this
week have been compartively few.
The Rose Carnival in Portland took
away a good many of the society folk,
some going down for a few days only,
some for the entire week. With
commencement festivities forgotten,
excepting, of course, a few weddings
scheduled for June, the social affairs
will be dull for the rest of the sum
mer. Shower For Miss Halt.
The principal event of the past
week was the miscellaneous shower
complimentary to Miss Maude Hart,
who will become the bride of Walter
Irvine Ford June 26. Misses Nora
Robertson, Mina Hughes and Effa
Brown were hostesses and the affair
was given at the home of Miss Rob
ertson on Monday, June 17.
Strings of hearts were hung about
the rooms and tiny candy duplicates
were hidden. The guests were
obliged to hunt for them, and Mrs. N.
Griffith won the favor.
During the evening a huge basket
was hung in a conspicuous place and
each of the guests sent a wireless tel
egram to the bride, dropping them
into the basket as they passed. The
reading of the messages by Miss Hart
caused a great deal of merriment,
most of them containing good advice
in humorous form.
The honor guest was the recipient
of many handsome as well as useful
presents, among which were several
very beautifful pieces of linen and
haviland.
Misses Effa Brown and Mina
Hughes assisted Miss Robertson in
serving. The invited guests were:
Mesdnmes N. Griffith. J. H. Hart. G.
L. Hawkins, W. Ross Ellis, W. H. F.
Manston, Will Greenwood, W. L.
Soehren, Herbert Dunkelberger, D. M.

the only way in which this could ba

themselves as unqualifiedly opposed
