guests invited to supper at Hillcrest, the home of .Mr. and Mrs. Herbert L. Seekins; hut it did not discourage them.

The porch, cosily scr ened in formed an ideal dining room, where the com- pany soon were seated at the daintily spread table. The firelight soon beckoned the ladies inside, where they were later joined by tne men, in time for a few "stunts,” performed to 1 the delectation of the spectators. A button stringing contest was a feature of the evening. Home-coming-time came all too soon; not, however, before the “over-grown pickle” was produced and much enjoyed.
