On Sunday, August 23, a few of the many friend of Mr. and Mr. A. Alexander gathered at their pleasant home and were very pleasantly and acreeably entertain ed. The day was most enjoyably pent as the kind host and hostess assisted by their accomplished daughte, Edith, spared no pains in their generous hospitality. An im portant feature of this occasion was a most sumptoya dinner. Before the departure of the friends a de licious repast of ice cream an cake were served. A visit to this model home recalls to memory many plea sant occasions of the past and is a living reminder that life is what we make it, and the children reared in this household will go forth in the world equipped with an armor that defies the world's alurements; for the rarly home influence aod the teachings of mother have been the safe guiding star for many a ship wrecked soul, and thus da we appreciate such precious glimpses into the sacred portals of this sacred home. Those who enjoyed this oc casdon are: Mr. and Mrs. W. X. Alexander, Mr. and Mrs. John Compton, Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Cal breath and family, Mrs. Janie Woods and son Marl, Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Swink and daughter. Mabel. Misses Edith Alexander and Alice Bridges and Messrs. Isaac Compton Gail and Dell Alexander. End of Hitter Fight.
