Birthday Party
Enjoyed Monday
Jennie Lusby was the guest of
honor at a birthday party given
for her in her home by Tressie
Michener last Monday evening.
The 12 friends found no one at
home when they arrived, so they
seated themselves at tables of
cards while the younger Lusby’s
searched the town to bring their
mother home for her surprise.
By the time she came, nearly
all the guests had minus scores
in pinochle. The highest score
the whole evening was only as
high as one good hand could be.
It was held by Mary Sawyer. Er­
ma Johnson was winner of the
low prize.
The delicious lunch served by
the hostess, Tressie Michener,
turned out to be fruit cocktail
(with Bartlett pear labels on the
cans) and cottage cheese salad,
sandwiches, ice cream and cake—
locked in where the hostess
couldn’t get it. So Mrs. Lusby
cut a big angel food birthday
cake.
After lunch a large chair, which
was moved to the kitchen, would
not go back into the living room.
When all the guests tried and had
decided to tear off the door cas­
ing, it, by a slight turn, went
through.
After all the laughter had sub­
sided, everyone went home feeling
she’d had a very good time. “Have
another birthday soon, Jennie.”
