The entertainment given on

both boys and girls there were
about sixty present. The par

occasion and many interesting
games were -played by the
guests. One feature of the
evening was a drawing contest
among the girls and the prize
was won by Miss Dessie Laffcr

delicious refreshments, consist
ing of chicken salad, sand
wiches, cake, fruit and cocoa,
were served. After the lunch
the guests departed all report

the Church who aided in mak
ing this affair a success. This
is the first of a series of good
times that the young men are
planning to give this winter bo
