Saturday. Class Party—Marie Daniels Mias Edna Ehinger, whose wedding to Will Herllng will be solemnized June 20th at the St. Mary s Catholic church, was the guest of honor at a friendship shower given for her Wednesday by Mrs. Henry Schulte, guests being themembers of her clubs, the Embroidery and Bachelor Maids with a few other friends. The Schulte home was beautiful In its decorations of yellow and white, which colors will characterize the bride’s wedding and the affairs pertaining thereto. These colors took material effect in the streamers of crepe paper which were draped from the center of the room to the chandelier in the middle, where they were caught and festoons of yellow and white hearts, the white being carried out in the large vases of snow balls which adorned tables and mantels. Cards were played during the evening and much enjoyed, prizes being won by the Misses Amelia Weber and Ode Fullenkatnp. first, and the booby by Miss Mae Rademaker. The prizes were then presented to the bride-to-be. After cards the tables were cleared and a delicious luncheon was served by the hostess, who was assisted by her niece. Miss Amelia Depinet, the luncheon also carrying out the colors of yellow and white in the menu and favors. At the close of the luncheon. Miss Margaret Center, who will serve as Miss Ehinger’s bridesmaid, read two very pretty and happy toasts, echoing the sentiments of the entire assemblage, as follows: "A health to you, a wealth to you. And the best that life can give to you May Fortune still be kind to you, And Happiness be true to you. And Life be long and good to you. Is the toast of all your friends to you.” And: ‘•May every joy attend you. And Heaven daily send you Blessings in heart and Home, A faithful knight to tend you, Wherever you may roam.’’ Then came the “shower,” a veritable wealth of beauty and usefulness combined. A very pretty bower for the reception of the gifts was formed in the large bay window in the dining room, in which was placed a large table on which the gifts wrapped in dainty coverings were laid by the donors as they entered and afterwards opened by the bride-to-be. From the top of the bow window, extending out over the table to form an inset alcove were hung crepe paper strands of the crimped crepe paper in the same dainty colors of yellow and white, and ex-

tending from this bower to the walls were festoons of the yellow and white hearts. The affair was a very pretty one.
