An Enjoyable Event.
On last evening, nt the beautiful
homo of Mr. nnd Mis, E. B. Smith in
the north part of the city, occurred
ono of the most enjoyable occasions
Hint has taken place hereabouts in
many months.
In response to a largo number of in
vitations sent out by the Misses Lillian
and Pearl Smith a few days ago, about
ono hundred guests assembled between
tho hours of eight aud nine o'clock
when they were met. and, after being
r.shoied into tho house aud disposing
of their outer wraps, repaired to the
Inwu where '.a spacious platform had
boon erected for the purpose of "trip
ping ho light fantastic." The lawn
was also well (quipped with suttees,
chairs, couches, etc., as well as tables
upon which wore nearly nil of tho vari
ous popular games enjoyed by tho
twentieth century society lights.
About 9:30 tho announcement was
made by Miss Lillian Smith that danc
ing was in order, nnd as tho piano
pealed forth a beautiful two-stop and
tho sweet harmony lingered on tho
evening air tho temptation wns irre-
sistablc by the young people nnd in n
very few momonts tho platform was
thickly populated and ns tho happy
couples twirled about, ono could stand
a little apace and witness nu occasion
not unlike some wo have seen doscribod
by tho poots.
Aftet tho first number had been dis
posed of, at tho west side of tho
spacious lawn could bo soon a largo
number enjoying ico cream and sherbet
which bad so fittingly boon prepared
by tho genial host and hostos and
which by the way, was of a superior
quality, judging from the soothing
effect it bad upon the partakers.
The lawn was lighted in a luxurious
manner which was appreciated to no
small extent and commented on by
nearly everyone present as welt as
a goodly number of spectators who
hatLbeen attracted to the scone.
In fact, nothing was left undone to
insuro success in tho way of comfort
and convenience to tho guosts. Tho
large platform had a canvas cover; on
the lawn hero and thoro were lounges
011 which to (rest nt intervals and en
joy thoexhiliarating evening breeze;
tho erokinolo boards weru in use nearly
all tho evening by those who seemed to
prefer games to daiiciug; tho 11101 ry
laughter of tho whist players was lieaid
hero and 'hero throughout the ontiio
evening.
Tho music was furnished by Mrs. J.
O. Wiles, and rendered in a manner
that prompted much praiso of her ex
traordinary musical ability.
Tho object of tho occasion was a fare,
well party in honor of Miss Pearl
Smith, who expects to leavo within the
next few weeks.
About 10:30 Miss Pearl was asslgnod
tho duty of standing face to face, be
fore tho largo assembly of guests, with
Mr. E.J. Ovofing Jr., who, with a few
well selected words, presented her with
a beautiful cut-glass water set which
bad been purchased by a numbor of
her friends, After teeeiving the beau
tiful tokcu of friendship and appio
priately thanking tho givers, she re
tired for a few moments, and as tho
pianist again sttuok up a favorilo
wall, the shifting of feel was soon
heard on tho cauvas-corercd platform,
and tho evening passed swiftly by un
interrupted. Ail in all it was an event long to bo
temtmbered. Nothing lucking, tho
guests congenial, a model evening, and
a host and iiostess up-lo-dato in the art
of entertaining.
Miss Pearl will long remember tho
many smiling faces she met last even
ing, and in future years will look with
pleasure back to tho days of her
maidenhood, and ospeeiully this event.
We join with her iiuuy friends in wish
ing her an abundnooe of happiuess in
her future career.
