Thimble Club—Fanny Hite. Christian Aid —Mrs. Arthur Fisher. I The Twilight club found Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Schug delightful entertainers Thursday evening, their comfortable home on Third street taking on beautiful decorations for the occasion. As Valentine’s day is so near the Valentine decorations were used. Hearts were strung and festooned about the room, from chandeliers to the w-alis, one room being given over to green hearts and the other to red.. Pedro was played, followed by a number of contests, one being known as “The Cro,” being unusually interest-, ing. In both perdo and this contest Mrs. Martin Jaberg starred by winning first honors. A luncheon was included in the items of entertainment. A party of fourteen members of the Christian church, together with their pastor, Rev. J. M. Dawson, drove to William Teeple's home near Willshire Thursday evening, where they were royally entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Teeple, who put the climax on when they served an elegant •lunch, which was greatly enjoyed by all. Everybody had a delightful time and came feeling well repaid for having gone, even if they did not get home unti lan early hour this morning. There was one in the party—“guess who”—said he did not like fried chicken —after it was ail gone, but we notice he even slipned the bones in a friend's pocket to bring noinc. The v-hole party extends tc Biotiier Teeple and family their hearty tii&aks for ' their hospitality. The non-egotistical social at the Presbyterian church parlors this eveni ing is one of the biggest and best things on the social calendar and should not be missed by any one. No one who attends is allowed to talk about himself under penalty of a fine, and mock detectives will be stationed about the room watching for whom he can bring into the mock court of justice for failure to live up to the statutes of the evening. Refreshments of ice cream and cake will be served for a dime, and there will be many other things to add to the pleasure of the evening. The Needlecraft club was delightfully entertained Thursday evening by Miss Celia Mayer, the girls enjoying themselves informally talking over their sewing, and listening to the piano numbers rendered by the Misses Dessie Beery and Ruth Mayer, and later partaking of the delicious refreshments provided by the hostess. The Menu-ates, with Miss Sylvia Eaton a guest, were entertained yesterday afternoon by Mrs. M. A. Frisinger, busying themselves with sewing until the luncheon hour., when tempting refreshments were provided. There will be no more meetings until the close of the revival services in the various churches. Earl Erwin of Monroeville, a student in the Fort Wayne Business college, will be a guest over Sunday at the D. B. Erwin home. Miss Gladys McMillen of Pleasant Mills, a student in the Decatur high school, will remain here over Sunday and also be a guest of the Erwins. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Schug entertained a company of friends at dinner the guests being Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Sohug. Jesse Schug, Albert Winteregg, Hornsey Sprunger of Berne and Calvin Neuenschwander of North Dakota. Mis. John Mayer of Monroe was a guest of Mr. and Mrs. Sam Doak at dinner today. Miss Margaret Daniels, who has been visiting near Boston several weeks with Miss Harriet Hill, going at this time to be in attendance at her wedding, writes relatives and friends ’ here of the happy event, an account of

which will be received with much I pleasure by the Decatur friends or Miss Harriet, who lived here seveiul years, uiakitig her home with her cousins, the Misses Sarah and Led • Segur. The groom was Mr. Will Hay- . ward and the wedding occurred Sunday afternoon at 3;30 o’clock, being ■ solemnized lu their new country home near Boxford, Mass. The attendants !of the bridal couple were Miss Margaret Daniels and the bride's nephew, • Forrest Messenger. Tin* ceremony took place in the arch between the parlor and the library. The two sis- • ters of the bride and their families were the only witnesses. Ferns and potted plants added much to the beauty of an already pretty and cozy home. The double ring ceremony used in the wedding ceremony was short but very impressive. The bride's djess was white Persian lawn simply made, trimmed in lace and insertion, the only jewels worn being an opal and pearl pin und a necklace of gold beads. The bride carried a beautiful bouquet of sweet peas and I the bridesmaid, violets. Miss Daniels says in conclusion: “After the ceremony we had supper in the dining • room and then quite the reverse from the usual way, the bridal party stoori I on the porch and watched the guests - depart in the auto. After they had . gone we sat beside the fireplace and ; enjoyed the rest of the evening. They . received elegant presents and they - have a beautifuUcountry home which in summer will be a perfect paradise.’ I > Miss Grace Purdy was a delightful • hostess to the Florhul de Purin club girls Thursday evening, the usual . pastime of needlework being indulged i in, followed by an appetizing lunch- . eon served by the hostess. Those t present were Flora Fledderjohann, . Dessie Mann, Huldah Loser and Inez Coverdale.
