prices brings the thought of low quality.

FORTY-TWO PARTY

A most delightful evening was
spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R..
S. Mason on Friday October 21st.
Forty-two was the order of the even-
! inn. After a number of games were
A deferred meeting was held on
Friday the 14th at the home of Mrs.
Uudd with whom Mrs. Vaughn, the
exceedingly pleasant hostess is boar-
ding, Nine members responded to roll
call with quotations from Tennyson.
Poet Laureate of England. The busi-
ess meeiing w*s presided over by the
president and was capably disposed
of, t.ie topic of tho afternoon study
was The Princess by Tennyscn with
Mrs. Goodman as leader. This being
her favorite poet she had read deeply
of all concrning him and found much
interesting in Hall-m Tennyson's
memories of his father. She also
gave the introduction of a play. Mrs.
J. C. Secord gave the "Prologue" in
her pleas-nt way of reading and this
was specially well rendered. The quo-
stions as prepared by leader were
then entered into and upon the part
of several members present showed
comprehensive study. Owing to ab-
sence of members designated to take
one side of decisions of question, "Do
we get most pieasre in reading Ten-
nyson from beauty of thot or beauty
of expression." Mrs. Gex took both
sides of the questicn and so well pre-
sented them that the question was
still undecided. The club welcomed
one of its non-resident members to
its meeting, Mrs. G. A. Hamilton who
i# a visitor in Texhoma. We also had
the pleasure of having Mrs. Masaly
t^ort.n, Missionary from South Amer
ica with us for the latter part of
the afternoon. Mrs, is on a
years furlough and her remarks on S.
A. were highly enjoyed by the club.
The hostess served a dainty luncheon
and after a few moments in pleasjnt
social customs, the club adjourned till
its next regular meeting Oct. 26.
